Vicini Pastaria

Located in the beautiful, historic Lafayette Square neighborhood of St. Louis, Vicini pastaria, café, & market strives to create a genuine Italian experience where all who walk through our doors are welcomed as neighbors, friends, or family. Vicini is a small, neighborhood, Italian pastaria, café, and market focused on our house-made fresh pasta sold raw to cook at home, along with some grab-n-go prepared foods perfect for a picnic in Lafayette Park, a local and imported Italian specialty food market, a small curated selection of European-inspired antiques, furnishings, home decor, and kitchenwares, and finally, dine-in counter-service lunch, communal Cena con Amici (“Dinner with Friends”) pop-up dinners, and cooking classes. We invite neighbors, guests, and friends to select some handmade pasta, meatballs, or local artisan products from the market to enjoy at home, or to gather around our table to share a prosciutto panino, a simple plate of our signature hand-rolled pici pasta, or communal family-style feasts; all lovingly hand-crafted with the utmost care and rustic simplicity characteristic of authentic Italian cuisine.
