# Overview Dalmoros Fresh Italian is running a monthlong National Pasta Month program at all locations in October. The campaign pairs daily, rotating specials with two new menu moves: half-size pasta portions and seasonal dishes available all month. The program culminates on National Pasta Day, Saturday, October 17, with app-based rewards, surprise giveaways, and a local mascot appearance in Tampa.
# Daily specials schedule Dalmoros published a daily lineup that changes each weekday. The schedule gives repeat customers and first-timers specific reasons to visit on particular days:
- Meatball Monday: Free 3-piece meatball add-on with any fresh pasta purchase.
- Midweek Amore: BOGO fresh pasta after 5 p.m.
- Free Tiramisu Thursday: Free tiramisu with a purchase of $22 or more.
- Feel-Good Friday: Every 25th customer receives a free meal.
- Saucy Selfie Saturday: Post and tag a Dalmoros pasta photo or leave a review to earn loyalty points.
- Sunday Supper: Kids get free half-portion fresh pasta after 5 p.m. in-store.
The daily offers are designed to encourage repeat visits and social sharing while driving traffic at slower weekday hours.
# Menu changes and seasonal items Dalmoros is adding half-size portions of its signature fresh pasta at all locations to provide lighter options for lunch or smaller appetites. Seasonal items offered all month include Pumpkin Spice Tiramisu and Fresh Black Pasta.
# National Pasta Day (Oct. 17) perks On Oct. 17 Dalmoros will focus on app engagement and in-store excitement:
- New app signups receive $5 off a future purchase plus 100 rewards points.
- Current rewards members can scan a special in-store code to get 100 additional points.
- Surprise giveaways (including tiramisu and other menu items) will be distributed throughout the day.
- In Tampa, the Armature Works location will feature an appearance by the brand mascot Tony Rigatoni.
The brand expects the revamped app and website to be available by National Pasta Day, providing more ways to order and earn rewards.
# Locations and expansion notes
# Founder background and brand format Founder David Caruso created Dalmoros as a build-your-own fresh pasta concept after traveling to Italy. The model centers on made-on-site fresh pasta combined with homemade sauces and toppings, delivered quickly in to-go boxes. The brand emphasizes fast-casual service and claims more than 1,000,000 unique combinations prepared in under five minutes. Packaged fresh pasta is also available for retail purchase.
