Across
the street from our original deli, Broders’
Cucina Italiana, Broders’ Pasta Bar has
taken the art of fresh pasta one step further.
While the cucina sells pasta to customers who
want to cook at home, the pasta bar was designed
to delight our customers with pasta cooked the
way it is meant to be.
Each of the 21 or so pasta and risotto on the
menu are cooked to order and served steaming
hot to our customers. Those seated at the bar
get the best view of our pasta chefs doing the
cooking, which is always ‘al dente’
and tossed traditionally.
This is not a pasta restaurant that ladles
on white or red sauce nor is it a chain. Each
dish gets an individual sauté of ingredients
with fresh garlic and herbs added at the right
moment. Great care is taken in the daily production
of fine egg pasta (which is also sold to cook
at home in our deli across the street) done
in the highest quality method, not with the
typical high-speed extruders used by the majority
of restaurants.
The result is a steaming bowl of perfectly
cooked pasta done in the traditional Italian
style.
Rounding out this delicious formula are antipasti,
salads, dessert and an Italian wine list. Our
menu constantly changes and there are daily
specials. Many of our customers love to order
our pasta for takeout. One caution though –
the best takeout dishes use semolina-based artisan
pasta imported from Italy (penne, fusilli, etc)
rather than our homemade egg noodles which should
be eaten as close to cooking time as possible.
Though the emphasis is on quality food, you
will enjoy the charming atmosphere and neighborhood
feel of the restaurant and, in summer months,
the wine and appetizer bar on our patio. Take
a look at our menu and reservation policy and
give us a call. We look forward to welcoming
you for dinner.
