Fresh handmade pasta at Anthonys New York Italian in Houston

Not all pasta is created equal. At Anthony's New York Italian, every pasta dish begins with fresh pasta made in house.

While many restaurants rely on dried commercial pasta, our chefs prepare fresh pasta daily to create a texture and flavor that simply cannot be replicated.

Fresh pasta absorbs sauces more effectively, cooks more delicately, and delivers a richer dining experience. Whether you're enjoying rigatoni, fettuccine, pappardelle, gnocchi, or seasonal specialties, you immediately notice the difference.

Our pasta program is inspired by Chef Anthony Russo's New York Italian heritage and commitment to authentic cooking techniques.

Each dish is prepared using premium ingredients, imported cheeses, and extra virgin olive oil. When guests search for the best handmade pasta in Houston, they are looking for quality, craftsmanship, and authenticity — exactly what we deliver every day in River Oaks.
