I ordered the ricotta ravioli with toasted hazelnuts, it was divine, I only wished there were more on my plate or maybe some crusty Italian bread to sop up the lovely olive oil and balsamic vinegar. My boyfriend had rigatoni, I tried a bite, and that too was packed with flavor! This little gem of restaurant was definitely a culinary treat!
We had the best view of the kitchen from upstairs next to the rail and we were celebrating a birthday. We had several appetizers - roasted beets, roasted brussel sprouts with thick bacon, bruschetta with seafood and pickled onion, and potato gnocchi. All were delicious! Birthday boy had the braised oxtail and he was still talking about it today. I had the spicy sausage rigatoni and ate every morsel. Excellent food, wine and a lively atmosphere make this a great choice for a special night. We will be back!
Best Italian restaurant I have gone. The pappardelle and the spaghetti were super tasty and well done. The best bruschetta I have ever eaten. Service was awesome and the place it’s also great. Mr. Ethan, please open one of your restaurants in Houston TX, I will be a frequent customer for sure.
Our table shared 3 apps & 4 pastas and we couldn't decide what we loved best. We sat in the loft, which got a bit warm as the evening went on, but each dish & wine was perfection.
Just wow! Great service, amazing food, reasonably priced good wine. Can’t ask for more
First of all a great happy hour notwithstanding quite a few great dishes. When we return we shall re-visit.
Happy Hour was perfect. Good wine good food
One of my favorite places to stop in Seattle! There are two locations and you can't go wrong with either one. Pasta is amazinggggg
Whenever I come back to Seattle, I always make sure to come here. The food is great. Its got a great atmosphere to come eat with friends or a date.
Great menu. Loved the gnocchi last night and enjoyed the fun atmosphere. Especially delicious were the green beans and heirloom tomatoes from the appetizer menu. The specialty cocktails all sounded great although I went with wine last night. Will try those next time.
Buckwheat, fontina, savoy cabbage pasta was a delicious texture & flavor!
The Pumpkin Ravioli is delicious! More importantly, Will Ferrell eats here.
Love the happy hour! And the servers! The bruschetta salmon. Spaghetti with anchovies. Everything is great!
Fantastic! Food, service, atmosphere... I'm sorry I can't remember the name of who helped us! We sat at the bar at around 5. His suggestions were great and he was lovely! Thank you for a beautiful night!
Roasted Beet salad is so delicious! Very tasty pasta dishes and great atmosphere.
Among top 3 Best Authentic Italians in my U.S. trips
My husband and I decided to go here last minute for dinner last night and the food was AMAZING! He had the steak and I had the halibut. Wow! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is in the Seattle area. Our server Christine was so friendly, attentive and knowledgeable! Be sure to ask for Christine when you go! Thanks again!

Definitely i would go again for some appetizers and drinks.. Food wasn’t what I expected but cocktails and appetizers save the night! 🫶🏻
The waitstaff were very friendly, informative, and accommodating. The food was delicious and provided a cohesive experience. I was worried walking in that the large ceilings would lead to a loud environment where I'd struggle to hear, but found it absorbed the fray leaving a dimly lit, cozy vibe that drew us closer together. Would gladly dine here again!

A delicious dinner in a refurbished old building in the middle of downtown.
We had the Roasted Beets as an appetizer, then Ricotta Ravioli and Gnocchi Alla Romana. All were great. Thomas, our server, was friendly and terrific at explaining the restaurant's specialties and making recommendations. We followed dinner with Tiramisu and Cappuccino... also delicious. We really enjoyed our experience in this restaurant.
Waitstaff were excellent. The food was good with choices I've not seen in other restaurants. The pasta with anchovies was a bit overly anchovy tasting for me but if you love a strong anchovy flavor, then perhaps you would like it. The chicken was very tender with a good flavor. The salad was excellent.
Came for restaurant week with friends and had an excellent experience. Service was great from the start. We chose from the restaurant week menu and all loved our choices including the wine. Personally love the steak I had. The music was kind of loud when we first got there, but once the restaurant filled up we didn't even notice any longer. Highly recommend!
I've had pasta in italy 🇮🇹 and have been fortunate to have eaten a lot of good Italian food....this place is legit
Friendly service and the foods are good. Environment is not bad either. The dessert, Eton Mess is very sweet. The white cookie-like portion just melt after you put into you mouth. The pappardelle tastes good. The tavolata dreamsicle taste is similar to the mix of orange and pineapple juice.
Hip, vibrant and moody Italian restaurant, full of energy and dark lighting. Cool space, utilising the elongated building well, with beautiful long central table, normal seating on one side and booth seating on the other. Some bar style seating upfront too. Open fiery kitchen at the back, and an upper mezzanine up a short flight of stairs. Sat at the bar and just caught happy hour (5-6pm), with full menu items slightly cheaper. Had the smoked fish bruschetta, which was great, and the meatball spaghetti, which was a generous size with good sauce, but wasn’t the biggest of fans of the thick glutinous spaghetti.
We have been to this place 2 times now and its one of our local Belltown favorites, so so delicious! This last trip we got the Bruschetta:
Smoked Fish, Pickled Onion, Aioli, Pappardelle:
Beef and Pork Ragu, Tomato, Mint, Chili, Orange, Grana Padano and the Pan Seared Scallops: Fregola, Tomato Jam, Chive. All to die for! Staff is super nice and the ambiance is lovely and moody I think is the best way to put it :) Enjoy!
Lively atmosphere, and cute mood lighting. The service was slow, 25 minutes to get mains after ordering. The staff were all very kind just not incredibly attentive (maybe due to waiter shortage?). They don’t have lemonade but the pineapple daiquiri (virgin) is a good substitute. The baguette with cheese and oil is well worth the $7. The pasta was good and a good consistency. The rigatoni was surprisingly spicy though.
Not about the restaurant and not contributing towards the eating but worth noting — parking around the restaurant sucks. The closest lot (Aprox. 2 blocks away) is $25 for an evening and street parking is a gamble. Surrounding area is filled with sketchy people.
Best dessert I’ve ever eaten! 🤤 Please do yourself a favor and order the apple tartar. 10/10
One of my favorite places for happy hour! This place serves the most amazing gnocchi (pictured) and their pasta is done perfectly. We also got their hand made ice cream as an affogato and it was sublime. We have quickly become regulars here! Be sure to show up by 5:30 in case of a wait for happy hour.
