Hoboken knows what makes good Italian food good, from fresh ingredients, homemade sauce, and a secret recipe passed down from someone’s Nonna. Now, local restaurant owners have brought a touch of Italy to Hoboken in the form of made-to-order pasta. Pronto Pasta has opened at 300 Clinton Street, allowing customers to choose from a selection of pasta, sauces, and toppings and watch the chef cook it all together for a unique pasta dish. Here’s what we know about Pronto Pasta now open on Clinton Street in Hoboken.
About Pronto Pasta
Pronto Pasta comes from the team behind Barbès, a French Moroccan restaurant at 1300 Park Avenue, and La Bohème, a French eatery at 233 Clinton Street. They’re also the team behind Cafe Tati, located at 401 Bloomfield Street. The owners are familiar with the Hoboken food scene and have been looking to bring this artisanal pasta concept to the city for years.
An Italian chef is in charge of the kitchen, adding to the authenticity of the concept. Stepping into Pronto Pasta, customers are greeted with a large pasta bar. That’s where customers can choose from a handful of pastas, sauces, and topping options and watch the chef cook it all together. The owners also made sure to include a gluten-free pasta option, too.

There is a pasta-making station at Pronto Pasta, where the chef makes pasta fresh every day right by one of the big street-facing windows, allowing people to stop and watch the process both inside and outside the restaurant.
Think fast-casual. The spot mostly provides takeout options, but some small seating is available for those looking to dive right into their pasta.

The owners say that eventually, they want to sell other packaged goods on top of fresh pasta dishes, such as sauces and packaged pasta.
