Our story

A dream shared bytwo friends

Matteo's Pasghetti was founded by longtime friends and business partners Matt Aubrey and Zlatko “Z” Premcevic, who shared a vision for a fast-casual Italian restaurant unlike anything else in the area.

Inspired by great food, real hospitality, and bringing people together, Matt and Z set out to blend classic Italian comfort food with modern flavors and fully customizable options. The goal was simple: serve delicious, high-quality food in a fun, welcoming place where every guest feels at home.

What began as a shared dream became a place where family, friendship, community and great food all come together — build-your-own pasta and meatball bowls, paninis, fresh salads, baked signature pastas, gelato and more.

Behind the name

He couldn't say spaghetti.So he said pasghetti.

The restaurant is named after Matt's son, Matteo. As a little kid he couldn't quite get his mouth around “spaghetti” — it always came out pasghetti. What started as a family joke turned into something special, and when it came time to name the restaurant, the answer was obvious.

Matt Aubrey

Co-founder · DJ & Restaurateur

A Lebanese-American entrepreneur built around two lifelong passions: music and hospitality. As a working DJ, Matt travelled the world playing for crowds and collecting flavors, cultures and ideas along the way. He has helped create and operate successful restaurant concepts ever since — and Matteo's Pasghetti is where all of it finally lands in one room.

Zlatko "Z" Premcevic

Co-founder · Hospitality Lifer

A Serbian-American restaurateur who has spent most of his life in the industry. Z grew up in a family where food and hospitality were everyday life, and his operational know-how and obsession with guest experience are what turned the Matteo's Pasghetti vision into a real, running restaurant.

The heart behind the menu

Gianella Strong

Family is at the heart of everything we do. Many of our signature entrées are named after Matt's children — Matteo, Gianella and Giselle — so their personalities and stories show up right there on the menu.

Gianella is on the autism spectrum, and her journey inspired Matt and his wife, Ericah, to become passionate advocates for autism awareness and acceptance. Together they founded the Gianella Strong Autism Awareness Foundation, dedicated to awareness, education, support and inclusion.

Giving back is core to who we are: a portion of proceeds from Matteo's Pasghetti supports the foundation's mission and its work with individuals and families affected by autism. Every meal served helps build a more inclusive community.

Our motto

Stay Saucy.

It's more than a slogan — it's a celebration of family, friendship, creativity, great food, and having fun along the way. Welcome to Matteo's Pasghetti.
