Our Story

From Our Family's Kitchen to Your Table

Hi, I’m Yadira. Pasta Connection is my family’s story, born right here in Costa Mesa, California. Inspired by my father’s passion for food and culture, we blend the rich culinary traditions of Italy and Argentina with a touch of our own SoCal warmth.

Working alongside my family, we aim to create meals that bring families together. From hand-rolled pasta to savory empanadas, every dish reflects the care, tradition, and joy of sharing food with loved ones.

My parents began this journey with a passion for bringing people together through food. Growing up, I watched him blend Italian and Argentine flavors in our family kitchen, creating meals that celebrated his heritage and our family’s roots in Newport Beach and Costa Mesa.

Today, I carry on his legacy, working with my family, to honor the traditions that make our food, and our family, special.

For over 40 years, we’ve proudly served breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Using the same Cerrini pasta machines that have been with us since the beginning, we craft all of our pasta in-house, just as our ancestors have done for generations.
