About Pasta Mad

Alexandria’s industrial stretch hides Pasta Mad, a low-key trattoria serving handmade pasta with proper al dente bite. Diners drop by for midday bowls of fettuccine boscaiola and conchiglie tossed with crisp guanciale and black pepper, served alongside house-baked focaccia loaded with tender meatballs. With Italian radio humming in the background and a tight schedule holding dinner service exclusively to Thursday nights, the table fills out with rotating blackboard pasta creations and fresh cannoli.

  • House-Baked Stuffed Focaccia: Freshly baked house focaccia stars as crunchy garlic bread or stuffed sandwiches filled with meatballs, Parma prosciutto, and schnitzel.
  • Thursday-Only Dinner Service: While daytime lunches run throughout the week, evening pasta service opens exclusively on Thursday nights.
  • Rotating Blackboard Specials: Chefs rotate blackboard pasta dishes alongside changing daily cannoli fillings and layered house tiramisu.

Why Choose Pasta Mad

Handcrafted pasta, freshly baked focaccia, and genuine Italian warmth in Alexandria.

  • Fresh Handmade Pasta & Scratch-Made Sauces

    Diners consistently highlight fresh handmade pasta, cooked with ideal al dente texture and paired with balanced, scratch-made sauces like fettuccine boscaiola and carbonara.

    The sauce of the fettuccine boscaiola was absolutely perfect. It had so much flavour without being overly salty or too rich.

  • House-Baked Focaccia & Specialty Sandwiches

    Signature house-baked focaccia is served fresh, offering a crispy exterior and soft crumb enjoyed standalone or packed as hearty meatball and schnitzel sandwiches.

    The focaccia was incredibly crispy, with a rich olive oil fragrance. Paired with the toppings, it created a flavourful, well-balanced texture that was such a pleasant surprise.

  • Exceptional Value for Handcrafted Italian Dining

    Generous, high-grade Italian comfort dishes deliver exceptional value, satisfying diners with quality that surpasses standard dining without premium city markups.

    Finally I just want to mention theirs prices are so reasonable almost unreal for Sydney.

  • Warm, Family-Owned Hospitality

    Attentive, family-style hospitality and a welcoming environment leave diners feeling cared for and comfortable from the moment they sit down.

    It’s a family-owned restaurant that genuinely cares about its customers.

  • Convenient Alexandria Lunch Destination

    Its Alexandria setting provides an easy, reliable option for midday meals, efficiently accommodating nearby office teams and quick business drop-ins.

    They even accommodated when we brought a big group of about 20 people (they’ll brought out extra tables and chairs for us).

  • Exclusive Thursday Evening Service

    While primarily serving daytime lunches, dinner service is offered exclusively on Thursday nights, creating an anticipated evening special.

    The trick here is planning ahead - their opening hours can be a bit odd and super limited but catching them when they’re open is completely worth it. Right now, they're only serving dinner on Thursdays.

    The carbonara was very well balanced, creamy, smokey and very addictive.
