Experience our signature build-your-own handmade fresh pasta at Aglio - Modern Italian Restaurant in Calgary. Choose your pasta shape, pair it with one of our chef-crafted sauces, and finish with the toppings you love. Made fresh in small batches, our pasta is rolled and cut by hand each day for a soft, silky bite.
Handmade pasta is the heart of Aglio. We mix, knead, and roll our dough fresh each day using semolina and 00 flour, then cut it into the shape you choose - from spaghetti and fettuccine to penne and rigatoni. Cooked to a perfect al dente and tossed in your selected sauce, this is Italian comfort food the way it was meant to be eaten: fresh, simple, and full of flavour.
Our build-your-own format means every plate is made to your taste. Pick a creamy alfredo, a rich bolognese, a bright pomodoro, or one of our chef's specials. Add proteins, roasted vegetables, or extra cheese to make it your own. Gluten-friendly options are available, so guests with dietary needs can enjoy a true Italian pasta experience right here in Shawnessy, Calgary.

"The pasta at Aglio is genuinely fresh - you can taste the difference. I built mine with fettuccine and alfredo and it was the best plate of pasta I've had in Calgary."
