This intimate Italian restaurant in the Grove will serve its delicious Papardelle de Ragu Ossobuco for 20 percent off on October 17th. You can also try any pasta on the menu for $12.50 on Thursdays. Bring on the food coma.

Last but not least, drum roll please…

Ni.Do. Caffe (MiMo & Miami Shores)

The Italian trattoria will offer a special pasta tasting menu from October 4th through October 31st. The menu contains two pre-fixe pasta trios. You can sample three pastas for $18, and add paired glasses of wine for an additional $9. Call it a “pasta flight.”
