Welcome to PASTA REA offering full-service Italian catering, wholesale pastas and Italian specialties. Established in 2016 PASTA REA has become Phoenix’s first choice for Italian catering for weddings, corporate and special events. All our menu items are made fresh when ordered using only the finest ingredients, locally sourced whenever possible. No matter if your guest list is large or small or your plans are simple or elegant PASTA REA’s cuisine will make any event a memorable event. When hosting your wedding reception, planning a corporate event or inviting friends to your new home stress worrying about the quality of the food you ordered, or the reliability of your caterer should not be one of the many items you have to be concerned with. Our team of professionals with years of experience in full-service Italian catering will ensure your event runs smoothly from the first bite of the antipasto to the last bite of the tiramisu. No detail will be overlooked, exceptional high-quality cuisine and unsurpassed customer service are all part of the package. Our team of culinary professionals work tirelessly when creating menus to ensure the proper balance of ingredients. PASTA REA produces several shapes of pasta extruded using imported brass dyes creating a pasta with rougher edges as opposed to the smooth edge purchased pasta you find on the store shelf. The rough edge allows our homemade sauces stick to the “ribs” of the pasta making every bite delicious. Our chef will select the right sauce for the right shape such as rigatoni with our Sunday Gravy, Gigli pasta with our creamy alfredo and penne pasta in our house made basil pesto. Fresh pasta is just part of the story. We offer 2 styles of menus, La Familia a casual family style Italian catering menu with choices such as lasagna Bolognese, Veal, Beef and Pork meatballs over fresh spaghetti, chicken parmesan or marsala. Viva Italia offers more upscale preparations with imported ingredients, fresh seafood and prime meats parried with freshly made gnocchi, pappardelle in short rib and mushroom ragu and 5 cheese ravioli with heirloom tomatoes and fresh basil. Appetizers soups, salads and fresh baked breads can be found on both menus with of course house made desserts.
