Lotsa Pasta
John Hale and Vicki Hale opened Lotsa Pasta on March 4, 1982 in a tiny storefront on Bardstown Road. Their original intent was to provide fresh homemade pasta to a city that had none. The crew of two started building a loyal following from the first day they opened the door, with many of those customers still coming in today. Within a decade, success made it necessary to move into a larger, more comfortable space, making the St. Matthews location our new home.
While the original Italian and Mexican delicacies and products are still the centerpiece; the scope of countries represented has grown considerably. The sociable Saturday morning line of locals talking UofL or UK basketball was joined by the accents of their Spanish, Asian, and European customers early on. The world was coming to Louisville and naturally finding its way to Lotsa Pasta. Eventually a bakery was added, and we started producing the classic Italian breads, giving us both bread to sell as well as a great base for our unbeatable sandwiches.
As always, we hold true to our mission of bringing our loyal customers, the finest foods the world has to offer. And it remains that if you can’t find something, just let us know, and we will do our absolute best to get it for you. Countless items are now in our shop because they had been requested by our customers over the years.
Many of our staff have been with us for an average of 8-10 years, some reaching 20 years of dedication, accounting for the success of the business. All of us are foodies and love to discuss the newest trends and help with ingredients and recipes. We are also happy to give you a sample of new items when possible.
Even though we have expanded our horizons to meet your culinary needs, we still remain the proud Mom and Pop shop where the owners are accessible. Our three kids, ages 24-28 can even occasionally be seen grabbing lunch or helping out as needed in their “childhood” second home.
For those of you who have been with us for years, we offer our continued appreciation and we wish all “Buon Appetito!”
