Pasta Casareccia 5843 Sherbrooke W.

This NDG institution has been serving Italians and non-Italians alike some of the best homemade pasta this side of nonna’s kitchen since 1985. Even for those without deep Italian roots, Pasta Casareccia (which translates to “homemade pasta”) recreates that warm hug feeling of a hearty pasta bowl made with love. The comfort food standards like lasagna and spaghetti bolognese are there, but the counter is full of necessary goodies, too, so don’t forget to pick up the meat-stuffed olives ascolana and pre-packaged cold cuts and cheeses. If you’re in a real hurry, you can even grab microwavefriendly single-portion dishes to go. They even have wine, desserts and garlic bread to complete the night. If you’re longing for a home-cooked meal, consider this the next best thing. Call for home delivery.
