Italian store in Louisville with great quality products. We used to go here all the time after moving to Louisville from New York, and as Italians, we're very glad to have somewhere with specialty Italian goods. Everyone here is very nice. It's always good to support local businesses. read more

Almost as good as a NY/NJ deli, almost. Good selection of things that you won't find in a grocery store with a nice selection of home made items. Only 4 stars because their bread doesn't come close to being that crispy on the outside soft and chewy on the inside. Their's couldn't handle a Pepper & Egg sandwich in falling apart after my first bite. read more

We've been looking for Mortadella since moving from CA and Lotsa Pasta carries it! Plus they sell frozen pierogies! Can't wait to try them.

I love going to lots of pasta for lunch getting a nice Panini or a charcuterie board with wonderful cheese and some of my German products and don't forget the fresh bread. read more

Lotsa Pasta - the front of a restaurant - Imported Food Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

See all

Lotsa pasta is a saint Mathews neighborhood Italian market/deli place in the city of Louisville located off Lexington ave. Me and my family was riding around the Saint Mathews area today on a Monday evening looking for a new place to eat. We seen a lovely patio with the words lotsa pasta on it and was like "boom we love Italian food let's go". So we pulled up in the parking lot. Walking through the front doors and we was surprised. This is a grocery store that has all Italian delicacies and food items. We noticed that there was a next door so we walked to the back and there was a small counter for ordering what looks like it use to be coffee and speciality drinks. A worker approached and we asked him about the place. He said it's a market but up front there is a deli that serves sandwiches and we were more than welcome to dine on the patio tables out front. We decided that may be cool so we browsed the market and found the deli. The market was very cool and fun to explore. The deli had a large menu and also every cheese I could ever imagine. From them menu I personally got the meatball sub. My wife got the soup of the day which was beef stroganoff, and my daughters got mozzarella and pepperoni pizza paninis. My wife and daughters picked out some cheeses to take home and eat later. My 19 month old also picked one out too as she found a cheese block and gnawed through the plastic. So we did the honorable thing and purchased it. Beside our food and cheese I also got us some canned sodas and some frozen cannolis as I've always wanted to try a cannoli and never had before. After the deli market you take it to the front counter for our purchases. A very nice lady greeted us and asked if we wanted some free bread today and pointed to a a shelf behind her with all kinds of fresh bread. We asked a what she would recommended and she said sourdough so that's what we got. She sliced it up using a machine and wrapped it for us and put with our purchase. Whole order cost around $70. So not bad at all For a family of 6 to eat and have speciality cheeses to take home. We went outside on a lovely patio and the male worker from earlier brought us out a trash can so we could dispose of our trash (top notch service in all aspects here). My meatball sub was phenomenal. Best meatball sub I've ever eaten. My daughters paninis were large and they loved them. I tasted the pepperoni pizza one and it was great. My wife loved her beef stroganoff and said her store purchase salad was good too. The cannolis was a three pack so we busted it open out there as well. I never had a Cannoli before so nothing to reference it too but it was really good. We all loved everything. We ordered and got here. We haven't jumped into our cheese purchases yet (19 month old doing a mouse impersonation in the store did I guess) but I'm sure it will be top notch too. No reason for us to think otherwise based off everything else so far. Overall a great experience and a super cool and unique place. How are more people not talking about this place? It's great. I'll absolutely come back and spread the word on this hidden Saint Mathews gem. read more

Lotsa Pasta - Street sign - Imported Food Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

The best sandwiches and soups and yummy cheese& pasta! Lots of frozen dinner options that are amazing too!

Lots of Italian both fresh and frozen. This a busy place. Need more parking. Hard to get into. Not a deal killer but could for some people. Selection is good. read more

Diogenes can put down his lamp. He has found an honest Italian. And it's a nod to Louisville that the Louisvillianites appreciate it. We walked down every isle just to see what they have...usually I do that only at Walmart. I loaded up on so many Italian treasures. We got fresh Mozzarella, big deli sandwiches freshly made, fresh homemade spaghetti, some homemade marinara sauce, salami to cut up at home, and more. Deli joke: 2 fellows walk into a deli brining their own sandwiches with them. The owner yells "you can't eat your own sandwiches in here!" So the fellows swapped sandwiches. read more

So I went to a local farmers market and discovered a fellow selling Milwaukee Rye Bread. Being an east coast guy, I'm always in the prowl for a good rye. They're tough to find outside of NYC. Unknown to me, a Milwaukee Rye tastes Luke a Brooklyn Rye but with a finer grain. I bought 2 loaves. And I learned the vendor was from a brick n mortar called LotsaPasta. So, 2 weeks later I drive to the store. Yes, I bought 2 more loaves. And home made gluten free pasta. And home made marinara sauce. And home made olive oil mixed with thyme & oregano. Are you beginning to get the picture? In reality, LotsaPasta is a side by side market with a sit down restaurant. And if the restaurant is half as good as the market, it's a knockout. The market had all kinds of pasta, sauces, prepared Italian dinners, salamis and prosciutto. And of course, a huge selection of cheese. Best of all, the staff is incredibly helpful. I walked in with bread on my mind and left with a bagful of goodies. And call me a psychic, but I can see myself going back in another 2 weeks! read more

Great service! Love the sandwiches and fresh pasta. The farfalle pasta salad is a family favorite.

Y'all! I had been sleeping on Lotsa Pasta! I drive past this spot all the time, but had never really given it much thought. Then I heard a few folks mention that it was good, and I decided to finally check it out. I'm so glad that I did! This place is absolutely awesome, and I will definitely be going back.. a lot! Lotsa Pasta is a full grocery, with lots of every day items, as well as specialty stuff. They have tons of selection. If you're hosting a dinner or a party, this would be the perfect place to shop! They have a huge selection of meats, cheeses, breads, chips, crackers, cookies, pastas, sauces, make-your-own pizza goods, salads, spreads, oils, dairy items, canned goods, the list could go on and on. Plus, they have lots of frozen and refrigerated options that are housemade, including pizzas, pastas, desserts, and so much more! The real jewel of this shop is the sandwich counter. Of course, they offer more than sandwiches, like deli items, soups, and more; but, the sandwiches are awesome! They're large, absolutely delicious, and reasonably priced! If you're looking for a great spot to grab a quick and easy lunch or dinner, Lotsa Pasta is definitely a great spot! We've also purchased frozen items, and they heat really well!

This has to be a glitch in the Matrix, no reviews for a business that has been in Louisville longer than I have? Lotsa Pasta is the type of deli I am used to encountering in New England and points east of Pennsylvania and north of Maryland. It is unique in a city that is populated by people who get excited about Jimmy John's and Subway. Shame on y'all by the way, learn to make a sandwich at home. The sandwiches here - and the selection in the deli case, is superior in quality and presentation. The also have - you guessed it - lots of pasta. Now, if you enjoy Jimmy John's you probably also think that pasta in interchangeable and perhaps this store isn't for you. If you know why pasta comes in shapes and sizes then this might be a place to check out. They also have a variety of Italian and American approximation Italian food that is ready to just be set in the oven and left to its own magic. You need a quiche or a lasagna but Covid hasn't taken your taste buds? They can save you. The also have a great selection on international foods, ready made salads, and Italian Ice. If you don't know what Italian Ice is I suggest you stop by and learn when you're also learning that Jimmy John's is gross and bad for you. read more

Made a large lunch order for my office. Food was very good, service was excellent! So much to choose from. More than just a deli, all kinds of specialty breads, pastas, meats, desserts - all to go. There is a nice little patio area outside to eat. read more

Wow, like the other reviewer I am very surprised there aren't more reviews for Lotsa Pasta. I've heard their commercials on the radio for years but yesterday was the first time I made it in. I looked around (never even looked at the deli but there's always next time) and figured out what I wanted and took it to check out where the clerk was very friendly. I told her it was my first time and she said "oh, the first time of many." My response was that I would have to decide on that but she was right. The baked ziti was incredible and their bread is fresh baked so I had the Italian poppyseed which tasted fresh and good. That was dinner last night and tonight's dinner was Italian sausage ravioli with meat sauce which again didn't miss. I also got manicotti with spinach & ricotta that I'm anxious to try and their meatballs were also easy to fix and very good. The place is small inside and I don't know how long it's been there but I can't believe I haven't been in before, if you like Italian Lotsa Pasta is a must try! Edit: I just found Lotsa Pasta's other Yelp page with 96 reviews which makes more sense. read more

Worker handed me a sandwich that burned my had. He held on over a paper towel and dropped hot foil wrapped food in my hand. So hot I had to just drop in the basket. He found it hilarious, as did the cashier workers. Why??? read more

This place is always busy. Great spot to pick up fresh Italian bread, frozen Lasagna and Eggplant Parmesan. Frozen cannolis are yummy too! Last minute dinner, voila! Haven't tried out the lunch menu and patio but intend to when it warms up. read more

I've been coming to Lotsa Pasta since I was a kid. They were the first in this part of Louisville to have whatever "weird" ingredient you needed for a recipe. They also have insanely good paninis, pasta salads, cheese and spices. Yes, it's a little pricey, but the convenient location and attention to detail is worth it. This place is an absolute gem and I will cherish it forever. From getting groceries to just picking up lunch or some treats for my son, this place always has something to please everyone...plus more! Highly, highly recommend. read more

Incredible food authentic- the people working there off the charts helpful and friendly

Great Italian sandwiches. Great selection of deli meats and cheeses. The bread is fresh and delicious! Nice selection of pasta items.

We ordered lunch for our whole office and everyone wanted something different. They did a great job. One guy even carried it out to my car for me. The selection of goods they have is amazing! I'll be back personally to buy from them. read more
