Such a hidden gem just five minutes from my work! The fresh pasta is absolutely delicious, & it's the perfect spot for a quick lunch or to pick up fresh pasta to take home. The service is warm & friendly, & everything is fresh & flavorful. I'm so happy I found this place-highly recommend!

We were looking for some home cook pasta & we found it. The pasta is made fresh with large portions & the focaccia bread is to die for.

Oh man, where do I start hahaha? There are restaurants, then, there are pasta stores, & then, there is Etna.
We moved to this neighborhood in July 2025. Having lived in Rome, Italy for the past 10 years, we were looking for a place that would resemble a real Italian Pastificio (fresh pasta store). & oh man, did we find one :)
Etna-by far-is the best place (not only in Villeray district) in town for fresh, homemade pasta. Not only can you buy pasta by weight & cook it at home, but you can also have a wonderful lunch on the spot. Prepared by Claudia & Sergio - the owners. Lunchtime though, you have to be there early, cause it's extremely popular in the hood, & places are limited.
I strongly recommend following Etna on Instagram to stay up to date with daily specials.
Whether you're an omnivore, vegetarian or vegan, there's always something for you. Ragu, pesto, focaccia, tiramisu, wine, awesome company, service... Mamma mia! Don't wait! Look them up & try them, you won't regret it.

You can feel the love in every bite at Pastificio Etna. The pasta is clearly handmade with care - soft, silky, & full of soul. It tastes like something straight out of Italy . Watching them craft it fresh right in front of you makes the whole experience even better. Simple, honest, & absolutely unforgettable.

Etna is a charming, low-key, humble pasta shop that specializes in home-made, high quality pastas. You can buy them fresh by the kilogram or opt for frozen options as well. They are a bit pricey but the quality is top notch! My favourite is their lunch service where they serve cooked pasta with their selected menu & they always have a special dish of the week. However, the lunch service only operates for 2 hours from 12-2 pm on Monday-Friday which makes it extremely difficult to dine there when you're working 🥲. The seating area is quite limited & it can feel quite cramped as well. This is the reason I took off one star for that however, if you're on vacation & live in the area, the lunch service is absolutely amazing & delicious!
