Cacio e Pepe
Paul C.

I came for the hype but left disappointed. I had seen this place online and how it was comparable to pasta from Italy. I was very excited to eat here. The workers were friendly but the service was subpar. They ask for a tip up front (18-25), and I find this surprising considering that you have to bus your own tables. Seating was limited, so you have to wait on your own for an open table. There's no host helping you find seating. The ambience just gave casual vibes. There's seating indoors and outdoors. Now, the food. We ordered the Caesar, pomodoro, and cacio e Pepe (special of the day). Caesar was tasty and fresh and would recommend. No complaints here. Pomodoro was mid. You have to pay extra for pork ($4), so the dish comes out to be $17. The sauce itself was rather bland, and if you told me it was from the supermarket, I'd believe you. The cacio e pepe... was something that I'd never tasted before. I've never had buttered noodles and pepper before, but that's what it tasted like. The sauce was very watery, so you would have to scoop up the liquid sauce and try to have it inside the noodles to eat it. Without doing this, the dish was tasteless. Would not recommend.

Seriously good. We had the special with speck, lemon zest... just everything amazing. We also had the vodka sauce which definitely needed the chili oil, but was also really yummy. Both pastas came out piping hot, which is so important. Oh and the Ceasar salad was 10|10 The devils eggs were the only thing I would take a pass on, there was 3 and we only ate 2 I've never passed on a deviled egg before. So that says something... All in all It was amazing food (laid back vibe) you order at the counter... I would definitely return next trip. Perfect stop on our way out

Is this the best Italian you've ever had? Let's say it is the best Italian in Chelan by a long shot, and far exceeds many places I've eaten on the westside. Caesar salad was tasty and just the perfect balance of dressing, lettuce, and croutons. Pasta was excellent - a simple Pomodoro with rich tomato sauce and added heft by adding in sweet sausage (plenty). Portions were generous- enough that my left overs made for a sumptuous lunch. Prices were perfect and in line with the quality of freshly made pasta and quality sauce. I'm super happy this place opened and excited to visit again soon!

Today's pasta: beet! My recipe: Delicious with sautéed fennel and garlic sautéed in olive oil. Finished with Romano and a touch of fresh dill and warmed cherry tomatoes. Chianti (of course). Enjoy!

It's my first time in Chelan and saw that this is one of the top spots in the area. Coincidentally, we were craving pasta so it was perfect! The space is small with just a few tables. Luckily, there weren't a lot of people at the time so we were able to secure a table by the window. We got the Gorgonzola pasta and their weekend special of sweet honey puree pasta with a side of sausage and meatballs. You have to order the protein on the side so if you're vegetarian you can choose not to get sides. I believe they also have anchovies if you only eat fish and not meat. The sweet honey puree pasta needed a bit more flavor but the meatballs saved it. The Gorgonzola one was so delicious! The pasta was al dente, the sauce was not overwhelming so the pasta was not drowning, then the sausage was just the cherry on top. We also ordered a cessation salad, which is perfectly dressed with just enough croutons for that crunch! The server told another group that it was her first day so it was understandable that she had to go to her manager for help on some of our questions. But she was so nice and friendly so I'm sure she'll be amazing once she's been there longer.

Came here on a Saturday evening and there wasn't any wait. I got the pomodoro pasta and the texture of the pasta was pretty great. The sauce stuck well and was good. Caesar salad was also pretty good. I sat inside at the bar since it was slightly chilly but they have outdoor seating.

ALL HYPE. After reading all the google reviews that this is THE pasta place to visit in Chelan, the pasta is fresh and homemade and so worth it and "to die for", I was looking forward to going here. The presentation of the dishes was nice, but we left very disappointed. For both dishes, the pasta tasted like it came out of the box. It was way more like Barilla than homemade. I've had homemade pasta several times before. The vodka sauce tasted like it came out of a jar. They have you pre-pay for the meal upfront which is fine, but they also ask for tips upfront before receiving service, which has become a very rude trend they have succumbed to. Should have instead saved $ and went to the nearby Safeway to get a cold refreshing summer salad with fruit on that scorchingly hot day, would have been more satisfying.

Pomodoro with pork sausage

Rating a 4 for flavor of dish, but should be a 3 for dish specifications. Pasta was cooked perfectly al dente, but a negative was that they were out of bread before dinner time (while being a seemingly un-busy establishment). They also did not add enough meat into their dishes. The pork sausage was juicy and flavorful, but only added on to the top of each pasta dish. It disappeared pretty quickly after the first few bites. The restaurant had friendly front of house staff, but could benefit from a few changes/additions to the menu.

Caesar salad
Sarah N.

Wow, affordable fresh made pasta at a cute little shop! The portions were so big I got two meals out of it. I had the cheesy pasta and husband had the pomodoro. We shared a Caesar salad. Everything was delicious, really impressed by the value. We will be back!

An amazing selection of pastas and sauces served family style.

Food is decent but asking for 18-25% tip while having customers to bus their own table is not very reasonable.

The focaccia bread set the tone right away, light and fluffy on the inside with a perfectly crisp, well-seasoned crust. Honestly hard to stop eating it. The wine selection was thoughtfully curated and had great options to pair with everything on the menu. The pappardelle was cooked to perfection, rich, balanced, and clearly made with care. The lasagne had a slight crust on the outer noodles, but still came together as a really satisfying and flavorful dish. We finished with the tiramisu, which was a standout. Light, airy, and full of flavor. It practically melted in my mouth. Service was just as impressive. Our waiter checked in at all the right moments, attentive without ever being intrusive. Highly recommend if you're in the area. Definitely worth the stop.

Which would be fine, except their outdoor seating is extremely dirty and due to the amount of trees around, covered in pollen. So it almost felt like second class or a punishment. I slapped the chair cushion and it was like it had never been dusted before. Not that I expect the outdoor seating to be clean at all times, I would expect a higher end place like this that features wine on their menu to make an effort to keep things tidy for all guests. The food itself, was actually pretty good. The deep fried artichoke seriously missed the mark in seasoning and presentation (maybe have the sauce on the side to dip?) but the steak and short ribs were amazingly tasty. Great flavors. We also did a wine flight and the wines were very good as well. One of the glasses still had lipstick on it unfortunately. A couple of the glasses looked rushed to clean. It was replaced and all was well. But still.. attention to details here seems to be an issue. If you come here, make a reservation. Sit inside. Might have a better experience. Get the short ribs or steak and some wine and it will be a lovely experience.

My husband and I came in with our two toddlers and my MIL for dinner. As our reservation was at 7…read morepm and we were in the area earlier than our reserved time, we strolled to their tasting room to purchase a glass of wine. I can't say enough how kind the staff - both at the tasting room and restaurant - were to my family. The restaurant itself had a magical ambience, most especially because it was just right after Christmas. The perfect lighting makes or breaks it and they got it right. Driving below looking at Tsillan Cellars, I imagined the restaurant to be more spacious than what I thought it to be, rather, it was a bit more intimate which was quite nice. As it was dark, we could not see the view but I would imagine that it would have been outright stunning in the day. As for the food, we ordered the shrimp risotto, steak, and canelloni for the adults. This establishment also offers a kid's menu and although I usually have my kids eat from whatever I order, we decided they cam order a plate of their own, which was spaghetti and chicken tenders with rosemary fries. All of the dishes were of quality and of course, delicious. I wish I could get another plate of the risotto. If we ever get the chance to come back, I would certainly come back and reserve a time when there is daylight to enjoy the view of the area and water.

Service: my boyfriend called to schedule a reservation. Number one I have a food allergy (onions,…read moreshallots, green onion and chive). He spoke at length to them about the allergy and if substitutions were made. We had the online menu and several of the dishes we were promised were onion free, including ciopinno. Now I make this at home. I am aware there are standard white onions in the broth. He doesn't know that, he just knows I love it. He clarified twice with whoever answered the phone. When he brought me, he had assured me they said it was onion free. *In a Morgan Freeman voice* it was in fact not onion free, nor were most of the dishes on the menu. I know better than to get too invested into any menu items prior for asking if it is safe. Second, we asked for a table with a view, preferably outside. This is primarily because of the onion allergy and he wanted a view. They put us in the middle of the dining hall. We asked about the view, the seating hostess "well this is the best view." There were three tables out on the patio. We had a view of a bridal party and bros who were spilling their drinks. I after a lengthy back and forth about food items, I was instructed to order protein and sides that were safe. What I ordered: scallops cooked in a butter, lemon and white wine sauce order a pasta of the chef's choosing. What she kept ordering were plain scallops, buttered noodles and a side of vegetables. I kept correcting her that I did not want buttered noodles. I stead of listening to me, she kept asking me what type of noodles I wanted. She didn't allow the chef to choose, she wrote linguini. I tried one more time correcting her, Steph wouldn't fix it. The lack of communication is sad. The food: I wish I could talk about the food. I got tasteless butter garlic noodles, three very small tasteless scallops, a side of shaved parmesan and a side of vegetables. I paid $45 dollars to be fed a meal worthy of a picky 2 year old and not what I ordered. I cannot fault the chef. I have no doubt he hated making that dish given what was on that menu. After heavily salting, I gave up after three bites. My boyfriend was very clear with Steph. I was very clear with Steph. She would not listen. Ambiance: is beautiful. Worthy of all the IG pictures. Because they accommodated the food allergy, I chose to not give one star. But honestly they deserve a one star review. Recommendations: Teach your staff how to listen. I had one amazing restaurant that will highlight with a highlighter what I can eat and underline anything that be accommodated. That was probably the best restaurant I have ever experienced.

While the rating isn't super high, we saw that the public market itself is an attraction, and the pictures look like the type of vibe that my wife likes, we decided to try out Fire. The space is very open, we were quickly greeted and seated shortly. There were a good amount of selections, but we ended up going with a pizza and the pork belly sandwich. Kids got the spaghetti and cheese off of the kids menu, both were solid, easy 4-5*. The salumi pizza was also solid, fresh ingredients, and baked well 4.5*. The porchetta was absolutely delicious, pork belly was done well and paired well with the rest of the ingredients, 5*. We got the charred brussel sprouts, but it was very charred and my wife almost wanted to ask for it to be remade. I didn't mind it too much, and just continued to eat (I was really craving for some cooked veggie), I finished majority of the portion so we didn't bother to ask for it to be remade. Our waitress was very nice, but there was a period where she disappeared (looked like she had her jacket on and went out to get something) and only asked us how the food were immediately after the food arrived and after we were pretty much done eating. Dessert was this crepe with Nutella ice cream inside, 5*. Overall it was an enjoyable meal, but given the price, this was a 4* experience.
