How La Casa Pasta Brings Italian Hospitality to Every Newark Event
Italian hospitality means treating every guest like family, and that philosophy has guided how we approach events at La Casa Pasta since 1978. Whether you're hosting a corporate gathering, celebrating a milestone, or planning an intimate wedding reception, authentic Italian hospitality transforms any occasion into something your guests genuinely remember.
What Italian Hospitality Means for Your Event
True Italian hospitality goes beyond excellent food. It's about creating an atmosphere where guests feel genuinely welcomed, where conversation flows naturally, and where every detail shows care for the people you're celebrating.
Flexible Spaces That Welcome Every Gathering
We offer over four dining areas, both private and semi private, that adapt to events from 15 to 100 guests, depending on the room and season. The Giuseppe Room holds up to 80 guests, while adjacent to our main dining room, giving you privacy without isolation. Your event feels connected to the restaurant's warm energy rather than cut off from it.
The marble floors and brick accents create a casually elegant atmosphere that works equally well for corporate luncheons and anniversary celebrations. Our upscale casual dress code lets guests relax while still feeling that the occasion is special.
Authentic Cuisine That Brings People Together
Since Giuseppe and Anna Martuscelli founded our restaurant, we've specialized in authentic Northern and Southern Italian recipes that create the kind of meals families remember. Our catering includes everything from fresh antipasto to substantial entrées like seafood cannelloni and chicken parmigiana.
All packages can be tailored to your budget and dietary needs, with specialized meals available for restrictions. This flexibility reflects true Italian hospitality, making sure everyone at your table feels included and cared for.
Personal Service That Understands Your Vision
We provide event coordination, catering, menu customization, and venue selection services, giving you one contact who understands both your timeline and the Italian approach to celebration. No rental charge applies to our private rooms, though food and beverage minimums do apply.
Need flowers or entertainment? We coordinate with preferred vendors we trust, keeping your planning streamlined. Audiovisual equipment is available for an additional fee with advance notice when presentations or toasts are part of your celebration.
Events We Welcome Into Our Family
We host small weddings, corporate dinners, luncheons, milestone celebrations, and high school reunions. The Giuseppe Room has welcomed intimate wedding receptions as well as business gatherings. Whether your event is formal or casual, our approach remains consistent, with genuine care for your guests and attention to meaningful details.
Outside cake is permitted with a cake-cutting fee. Traditional Italian desserts like tiramisu and cannoli are available, along with dessert wines for special toasts.
Our 120 Four Seasons Parkway location puts us within five miles of downtown Newark and the University of Delaware, making us accessible to guests throughout the area.
