Just off Cuernavaca Drive, nestled beneath shady trees near Lake Austin, Patrizi’s brings soulful Italian cooking and laid-back charm to 1705 Cuernavaca Dr N. A westside sister to the beloved East Austin original, this pasta haven feels like a warm backyard dinner party—complete with twinkle lights, friendly service, and scratch-made sauces passed down through generations.
From Family Roots to Fresh Pasta
The Patrizi family’s culinary legacy stretches back to the 1940s, when the original Patrizi’s restaurant opened in Beaumont, Texas. Today, brothers Matt and Nic Patrizi carry that torch with a menu rooted in old-school techniques and family tradition. Everything is made from scratch—think velvety carbonara with crispy guanciale, slow-simmered red sauce, and garlic bread made from buttery focaccia.
Cozy Courtyard, Big Flavors
Dine under the oaks at picnic tables or take your pasta to go—it’s casual, cozy, and deeply satisfying. The menu is tight but thoughtful, with standouts like cacio e pepe, pomodoro, and a rotating list of seasonal specials. Don’t sleep on the mocktails either; they’re as carefully crafted as the noodles. Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, this spot makes you feel like part of the famiglia.
