Agnolotti chicken, rabbit, pork, pistachio, truffle pecorino
gina b.

I've been here a few times and it's always a delight. The eclectic ambience is cozy and fun, the service is always on point and the food is amazing. This time almost all the pastas had a crispy sage on the top. That was really delightful and such a nice touch. There were five of us so we ordered quite a few dishes off the menu and everything was fantastic: fish crudo (fresh and tasty), beets, greens, focaccia bread, salad, agnolotti, tagliatelle, lamb, and oh the desserts! I highly recommend this place, the flavors are so much more adventurous and creative than the average Italian restaurant, and I love it.

Friendly service and welcoming atmosphere. The three of ordered family style to try more dishes. The crispy octopus was very tender, and prepared very slightly breaded and fried. Presentation was also beautiful. Burrata had nice accompaniment of figs and grapes flavor combinations which that I didn't expect but worked really well together. Agnolotti looked like an appetizer size at first glance but turned out to be just the right portion given its richness. It was one of my favorites bites of the night given the amazing mushroom, sauce full of umami flavors and the pillowy stuffed pasta. Duck was good but not my favorite. Bourbon-caramel semifreddo was a huge portion enough to feed three! Canoli had a nice citrus note but shells were a bit too flaky. Vanilla gelato was good with the olive oil and sea salt. Definitely recommend.

Grilled foccacia w/ Sangue Reale

Booked a spot on their patio here recently just for a casual Saturday night out to enjoy the warm weather. Seattle really loves their Italian restaurants - I'm sorta meh about it but figure I can get a good pasta dish and enjoy the weather. Hot damn, was I in for a surprise! Inside, to me, feels like a Berkeley(CA) cafe - lots of plants and warm/casual vibe to it, with a peek into the kitchen. Out back on the patio was great for summer. Cocktails are a little on the high side price-wise, but we're good. So far, so good - nice night out. Then the food came...just wow, these guys are aiming way higher than I expected! Handmade burrata looked and tasted great - to the degree that my wife has been studying my pics so she could reproduce lol. Scallop crudo was equally good and disappeared quickly. The grilled foccacia is a must-have, and our waiter recommended the roasted corn and mascarpone scarpinocc and just WOW I'm glad he did. Imagine a Tootsie-roll with delicate fresh-made pasta for the wrapper, wrapping a chunk of melt-in-your-mouth mascarpone. This is the best pasta dish I've had in Seattle, and probably in the top two or three I've had ever. To me, this place is a sleeper. I don't know what's with the two and three star reviews. I'm recommending it highly to friends, and looking for excuses to go again.

D'Olio martini
Serena S.

We went here for the tasting menu, realizing we had been here last maybe 3-4 years ago! We started with cocktails: the special D'Olio martini and a dark & stormy. Then went into the tasting menu which was several courses with three dishes each. I can't quite recall every dish as each was complex with flavors & ingredients, and there was not a single dish to say ewe about! Our servers were fantastic, promptly bringing items and explaining what was within. I also had the wine flight with the tasting menu, which was a great pairing.

banger after banger after banger. was so surprised by this place. did the pre fixe and everything was soooo delicioso. the sausage pasta was a teeny bit salty for me and the lamb was prob my least favorite of all the dishes. but nonetheless all the plates were cleaned and spotless by the time they were sent back

Agnolotti
Ian F.

Outstanding food! The agnolotti was amazing. And I loved the fava bean/onion salad. The 'nduja served with the focaccia was way better than any 'nduja I've had in the past. I highly recommend this inventive Italian restaurant

I highly recommend this place. It's better than I thought. It may be related to my expectation. I didn't know it was fine dining before. I just couldn't reserve a table at the original place I chose, so I changed to this place. There are many bars nearby, some new and some opened for a while. They are all very good. The wine is cheaper than in New York. They are all very creative. The bars all have food. In fact, you can go directly to drink and order food

The staff and interior of the building are great. I really enjoy the low light and all the plants. The food was a okay. We ordered the Baratta which super tiny but it was flavorful. I would say the batatta was the size of a dollar coin. The focaccia wasn't too flavorful but we didn't have about 4 pieces and the spread nice. We also ordered spaghetti ala chittara and the Tajarin for our main meal. The spaghetti was okay but I feel lacked depth and flavor. The Tajarin was super fragrant but lacked flavor. The Tajarin had a super fishy smell because of the tuna but once I ate it I didn't taste anything at all. Over I feel like the food here is expensive and lacking flavor. I feel like most dishes needed salt, pepper, or lemon. My favorite and most memorable dish was the baratta.

Pretty mediocre experience here. The mussels and charcuterie appetizers were okay but pretty standard. I tried the pumpkin ravioli which was pretty good but the seafood pasta but not good at all and the pasta was really hard.

35 dollar pasta
Lulu

I came to this place looking for great pasta, but I was disappointed. Was there for their "secret pasta deal" 3 pastas with a little appetizer and focaccia bread. From 5-6pm! The broccoli froth was interesting and light. The focaccia bread was pretty good, but I don't personally like olives. The pastas went from worst to okay. Eggy pasta with no flavor, to the seafood ravioli that did not taste really good, and the ground meat with udon... that one was not bad: too salty Anyways was sad about this place. Really wanted to like it. Won't be back! The decor was nice tho and the servers.

Cavatelli al guanciale; pasta with pork, garlic, and kale. A great compliment to the butter and sage pasta, the pork being so soft and flavorful. 2.) the Cavolfiore con bagna caoda; a roasted cauliflower with an anchovy sauce and lemon. Did not think that a vegetable could be the star of the show, but with that sauce, it was our favorite. Loaded with flavor, every bite was perfect 3.) Tajarin con burro e salvia; butter and sage pasta. The fine cut literally melted in your mouth, best to eat first while it's warm. This is a dish that stays year round on their menu and was highly recommended by our friends. We ordered the pastas in the half order which was perfect for 2. Your order comes with complimentary bread which you can ask for olive oil on the side for. Will definitely be back!

We had our final dinner in Seattle at Spinasse and twas a wonderful time…read more First off, Spinasse gives Capitol Hill from the moment you enter. It's minimally furnished with just the right amount of ambient lighting. Secondly, it's Italian, but Piedmontese Italian if that means anything to you. We started with crespelle ($29) which is an Italian crepe. The version we ordered was stuffed with prosciutto and parmigiana fonduta with arugula salad. The crepe was light and airy and paired perfectly with the salty prosciutto and parm. Perfect starter. Honestly, all the pastas we ordered were absolute fire. Of the three, I liked the Tajarin Al ragù ($20/$34) the most. It's a fine hand-cut egg yolk pasta with pork and beef ragù. The pasta is so finely cut; it's delicate. What I liked best was the way the ragù sauce enveloped itself into the folds of the pasta. Each bite was cohesive and really intentional. The risotto was also quite good as well - that night, it was the risotto ai gamberi ($21/$35) which highlight spot prawns. The spot prawns were sweet and the Calabrian chili was a really nice complement to the sweet and creamy. Delish. I'm sure the risotto is great in any season. I must say - the best thing about the menu is the fact that you can order a smaller portion of any of the pasta dishes as to not have to fully commit to one. This is a superb way to eat. Live actually. Include Spinasse on any itinerary if you can.

We were lured over to Due' Cucina after having a fantastic experience with their fresh porchetta…read moresandwiches at the Camp Yelp event earlier this month. Fatty and tender meat, dripping with juices, on top of the perfect focaccia with an ideal crunchy fried crust and airy interior, not to mention the excellent marinated eggplant, tender and filled with tangy vinegar essence. I couldn't wait to give their actual restaurants a try, and that's where we found ourselves over the rainy weekend. This particular location is open and clean with extremely friendly staff. Ordering is really easy on the 3 kiosks in the front, although the pasta chef/cashier is also happy to take orders, offer suggestions, and help with any questions. The menu displays the level of al dente to expect with each type of pasta but can be adjusted in the order notes. They also have a very convenient monitor up near the kitchen that displays order status, whether in the preparation phase or complete. I especially love how this restaurant has bar seating in front of the fresh pasta making station. We were able to watch as the chef mixed up a batch of fresh spaghetti, measuring out the semolina flour and water (at least, that's all I saw her add to the combo mixer-extruder), preparing the die, and then extruding the pasta. And yes, as with any high quality pasta, they use bronze dies for extrusion here! The pasta is dried on racks for a bit to really give that al dente bite when cooked. Suppli Al Telefono ($3.70) - An order comes with a single piece nestled in a mini fry basket. This is somewhat similar to the more commonly seen (in the US at least) arancini. It's a smaller log-shaped fried croquette, with tender rice cooked in a fragrant tomato based sauce, stuffed with tons of gooey, stretchy cheese, and then deep fried to golden perfection. The breading is fantastically crunchy, contrasting against the much softer interior. It's a great pairing of texture and flavor. (5/5) Short Ribs Ragu w/ Fusilloni ($14.90) - The chef recommended the fusilloni with the ragu. The fusilloni, essentially a larger fusilli that has longer "fins", has plenty of spirals and crevices to catch onto the sauce. The extrusion is a little inconsistent, with some pieces being longer than others and others being more spirally, a sign of manual hand cutting rather than being machine sliced. Per the menu, the fusilloni is cooked until a "2" al dente level. This is actually more al dente than most Italian restaurants, meaning the pasta has a very firm bite, yet remains slightly chewy. It's definitely cooked through and pleasant to eat, although trending towards the too al dente side. The pasta is only lightly sauced, but what sauce there is clings perfectly onto the micro rough surface of the pasta. Each bite is consistent in taste with all the rich umami and tangy notes from the red wine tomato sauce. The parmigiano reggiano adds an additional burst of savory saltiness and the short rib, rendered perfectly tender, is given in enough quantity to satisfy. Due Cucina really does serve some great pasta. (5/5) Rustic Porchetta Sandwich ($11.90) - With how great the porchetta sandwich was at Camp Yelp, this is a disappointment. The porchetta, while still flavorful with somewhat anise-like and garlicky aromas, is completely dried out and tough. It's like the pork had been pre-sliced in the morning at a central kitchen, shipped to the restaurant, then placed in a dry heat tray for service. After the meal I confirmed my suspicions with the chef - the porchetta is prepared off site and and driven over every morning. The focaccia, so airy and crisp at Camp Yelp, is also subpar in store. It's floppy, completely saturated with oil, yet feels dried out on the interior. At least the eggplant hasn't degraded in quality too much. While still having a bite (e.g. not super tender), it's grilled and marinated until tangy and savory in a vinaigrette. Interestingly they serve the sandwich on top of a bed of lettuce tossed in a balsamic vinaigrette. The oils in the sandwich drip down while eating to add even more flavor. (3/5) I know that their porchetta is high quality when fresh, but I think the way they have it set up now makes a sandwich that's still tasty, but definitely could be much better. If they choose to open a specialty sandwich shop that roasts the porchetta in house, I'd definitely be a regular. With Due' Cucina, though, I'd stick with the excellent pasta. At the end of the day, pricing is very reasonable. For less than $40 after tax/tip, we both left satisfied. What a rarity for Seattle nowadays. And as a bonus, apparently they refresh the menu often. According to the chef, starting on Monday, Due Cucina will be introducing new pasta shapes, sauces, and different sandwiches. I'll be back for more pasta in the near future!

Also the bathrooms are delightful. Great vibe, don't miss out.

And then I recalled why I didn't want to come back from the first experience. First, the location is unique, and I really appreciate that this business is trying to keep Georgetown alive with cool quirky places to eat. This def fits the bill. But, I couldn't help but notice the political statement taped to the front window, super classy. I dine out to escape my day. I don't need it thrown in my face at dinner. Next, when the menus were brought to us, it was for their 3 course restaurant week special. $50 per person, and there are two choices per course. My family all chose what we wanted and then waited for the meal. Like previous reviewers, the wine is brought out in oversized shot glasses not really, but might as well be). I get that in Italy, dinner wine (peasant fare) is served in cups, not stemware, but $18 for mediocre wine, I'd like to see a more appropriate pour. Lamb Polpettine was essentially lamb meatballs on a cold and very loose polenta with what was described as salsa diavola, but it was essentially a chunky red sauce. There was nothing about this that wowed us. In fact, it was pretty bland overall and underwhelming. But the manner in which you are greeted and served at the restaurant and the remainder of service, you would think it was going to change how you felt about food. I don't even want to go into the salad. Again, underwhelming. The mains came out and although tasty, the portions were very small compared to the price we paid. And if you opt for the truffle, it's finely grated and it covers the entire plate. Also, it's an extra $12......for less than $2 worth of black truffle. It absolutely ruined the dish. An educated server would be able to caution against it, if, of course it wasn't intended to raise the final price, essentially raising the tip. If you order risotto there, be fair warned, it is extremely loosed and not very well made imo. Bland, lacks imagination, and the rice grains were cracked and soggy on the ends and crunchy in the middle.. Last was the dessert. Again, it was tasty, but it comes in these tiny jars that equal about 2-3 spoonfuls of either panna cotta, or tiramisu. At the end of our meal, the bill was over $250. For that price, I could have eaten somewhere where I could have left a little more satisfied and felt like I was actually in an upscale restaurant, not a political statement masquerading as fine dining. Having worked food for a long time, I felt obligated to leave the customary 20% gratuity knowing full well the workers there made their "living wage" before the gratuity kicks in. It included an additional 2% to pay for employee health insurance. Isn't that an employer cost? Why put that on the check? Anyway, out the door for $300 and vowing never to come back. Buyer beware.

I tried to order the fettuccine de mare, listed at $29 (no extra fees on Toast), but they told me it would be $43. That already didn't make sense. Then the server says, "We actually have 50% off happy hour until 11, come in and dine." So I came in. Ordered a drink, escargot, and a steak medium rare. The escargot came out fine. Then... nothing. 39 minutes later (at 10:45pm), the server asks if I'm waiting on anything else. Yes... my steak. She goes to check, disappears, and then comes back with something that honestly felt DISTESPECTFUL. The steak looked like scraps. Uneven, mismatched chunks, all different sizes, with burnt, crispy edges and covered in sauce like they were trying to hide it. It didn't look like a single cut of meat it looked like pieces from multiple steaks thrown together. The plating was sloppy, and the side looked like an afterthought. I didn't take a bite. I looked through it and said, "This looks like pieces from different steaks." She told me she watched them cut it... then immediately followed that by saying she saw them put it under a heat lamp to reheat. So which is it? I work in the food industry. I'm not going to be gaslit over a plate like that. She offered to refire it, but at that point it was almost 11 and they were closing. I paid for my drink and left. Honestly, I wouldn't have been upset if they had just told me the kitchen was closing when I called. But don't invite me in, forget my order, and then serve something like this and try to pass it off like it's normal. Just be honest.

My boyfriend and I decided to come here for a last minute date on a Sunday and were surprised that we were easily able to make reservations for 7pm. The restaurant was fairly empty when we arrived which was so surprising because it had such a cute aesthetic and the food was absolutely delicious. We were both super hungry so we skipped appetisers and went straight for the pasta and it didn't disappoint. The Tonnarelli was what both of us were eyeing and it delivered in every way, from the freshness of the tomato to the perfect consistency of the sauce. We also decided to be adventurous and try the Ricotta Gnocchi despite the fact that both of us are not huge fans of ricotta, me especially. I loved the base of the paste and the flavours were great, I think I just got bored of the dense texture of the ricotta after the first few bites. Our server was super friendly and recommended me an incredible white wine to go with dinner that really cut the acidity of the pasta. The sauces being to tangy and acidic was my boyfriend's only complaint about the food, but he was the one driving. I really loved the pasta here and can't wait to come back and try more of the dishes on the menu!

The halibut size was smaller than average, and the greens consisting of two small artichoke halves and a single branch of collards. Similarly, we paid $23 for a seared tombo and were given four thin slices of meat. I feel slightly robbed paying about $80 and leaving quite hungry. The food was good, but by no means would I argue this is worth going out of your way for.
