Been here a few times and it’s always good! Usually little to no wait and a nice atmosphere. Tonight was even better! They had a beef tenderloin carpaccio special that was amazing (especially when paired with the focaccia). We also got the chicken parm which was SPECTACULAR crispy flavored chicken. It was so juicy and tender on the inside. Perfectly done!! Maybe the best I’ve ever had. Go get the chicken parm ASAP!

Great service and good for a nice sit-down dinner with friends. Accommodating for a kiddo on the patio. The food is incredible – we got the duck, gnocchi, and pizza. All delicious. The kind of Italian spot with a rotating menu, where you want to try different stuff every time. I think I’d want to get a pizza for the table every time, though. Napoleon style crust, we got the sausage pizza and artichoke pizza. Cocktails were great, too.

The food was very, very, very good. The service was terrific , personable and attentive. The downside? The bench we sat on moved every time we did. The place was keep-yer-coat-on cold. The atmosphere is meh. But the biggest issue was the noise level–once the place filled with people it became so LOUD you couldn’t hear the person next to you. Never seen anything like it. They need to install baffles, or something. I’ll go back for the food but I’ll bring somebody I don’t need to talk to.

Scorpacciata Pasta Co Is a true hidden gem we recently discovered in Larchmere. After building a loyal following at the Van Aken Market District, this cozy spot opened its own doors last year—and it’s been serving up fresh, inventive Italian fare ever since.
The name Scorpacciata translates to “a big feast,” evoking images of generous platters shared among friends and family. True to its name, the restaurant focuses on abundance—with a commitment to scratch-made dishes that are never frozen and always seasonal. Their guiding mantra, “Abundantly locally sourced and in season,” is reflected in every plate, with ingredients sourced from local farms.
Some standout dishes we tried:
Orecchiette – Tossed with Kalamata olives, sausage, and broccoli rabe
Kale Pizza – An off-menu delight with white sauce
Burrata – Creamy burrata cheese, prosciutto, strawberry preserves, and candied nuts over a bed of arugula
Arancini – Crispy breaded rice balls served with marinara
Cannoli – Classic vanilla filling with chocolate chips
Drinks not to miss:
Negroni
Spiced No-Loma
Wine selection
Limoncello – Made in-house using a cherished family recipe
Extras to keep on your radar:
Happy Hour:
-Tue–Thurs: 5–7 PM
-Sundays: 4–7 PM
Special Events: Wine tasting nights and “Tour of Italy” dinners
Ever-changing seasonal menu
Whether you’re craving a casual night out or planning a special evening, Scorpacciata delivers with heart, flavor, and an atmosphere that makes you feel like famiglia.

Amazing food and drink. The service was great. Our server was so nice and attentive. The atmosphere was great.

Highly recommended and I will come back.

The drinks is good, it’s sweet and smooth I forgot the name, ‘something no 2’. Wanted to try the Caesar salad but was told by our server that they’re out of it. Maybe because we came too early because when we’re about to finish our meal, another customer next to us can order the Caesar salad.
Mushroom pizza is really good as well as tagliatelli. Orecchiette is too dry and salty to my liking, added the meatballs in it but the whole thing is just too dry. Tiramisu was disappointing.

We were craving takeout Italian and so gave Scorpacciata’s new storefront a try. In general the food was top quality, albeit pricey (especially considering the small portion sizes). The Caesar salad was merely okay – I don’t know what a caper gremolata is, other than it contributed nothing to what should be a simple and straightforward classic. The pizzas, however, were outstanding. It was all about their thin and super chewy crust, which was blistered to perfection. The pizzas were delicately (some might say meagerly) sprinkled with a measured amount of cheese and fresh toppings. Although, for better or worse, everything we ate had a strong taste of fresh lemon juice. I do regret not dining in, since the atmosphere seemed chill and welcoming. But the pizza was good enough that I would certainly consider returning to sample the pasta dishes.

At the most uncomfortable experience last night. I want to order a soup in a appetizer but they didn’t have soup last night. So I ordered an appetizer portion of the meatballs. That six for 16.95. I noticed that a side order of meatballs was four for $6.95 and so as the server if they were the same meatballs, and he said yes. When I asked for some bread to soak up this sauce with the meatballs, I was told I could have some focaccia, but it would be $7.50. Although the food is delicious, I found this experience in the service often offputting my friends like it. So I go. But it’s not my favorite.

I went here today for the first time. I ordered a pepperoni and cheese pizza to go, which was delicious. The staff who greeted me were very welcoming and polite. The bartender was knowledgeable and we had a brief discussion about real ginger beer. Highly recommend.

I remember when this place was stationed in the Van Aiken Market District and would frequent it. Since I was visiting Cleveland for a dental appointment, I decided to try it out at its new location with a former coworker. Delicious. It didn’t have some of the previous items, but the menu is limited yet good. I had the linguine and tiramisu. I forgot what my friend got, but I would go here again. There’s outside seating and a nice interior design.
