Tucked away in Carle Place, Passione Della Cucina is a warm and inviting Italian restaurant that lives up to its name—bringing passion to every plate. With a cozy, Tuscan-inspired interior featuring stone accents, rich wood finishes, and white tablecloths, the setting feels both intimate and upscale, perfect for everything from romantic dinners to family gatherings.

The menu offers a refined take on traditional Italian cuisine. House-made pastas are a standout, especially the Pappardelle Bolognese—slow-simmered and rich—or the Lobster Ravioli topped with a velvety pink vodka sauce. Entrées like the Veal Chop Milanese and Branzino Oreganata are beautifully prepared and full of authentic flavor. Appetizers like the Burrata with Roasted Peppers and Stuffed Artichoke set the tone for a truly satisfying meal.

Passione also features an impressive wine list with Italian and international selections that pair perfectly with the menu. The bar offers classic cocktails and a few Italian-inspired specialties like the Limoncello Martini and Negroni, ideal for starting or ending your night.

While Passione isn’t a nightlife destination in the typical sense, it carries a vibrant, social energy during dinner hours—especially on weekends. The staff is attentive, the ambiance is relaxed yet elegant, and the dining experience is designed to be savored. It's also a popular venue for special occasions, with a private dining room available for celebrations and events.
