"Donna’s is one of Seattle’s newer bars, but the crew here slings hearty old-school pasta dishes like they’ve been doing it forever. That’s because the kitchen is helmed by Chef Peaches, formerly of venerable Seattle Italian institution Vito’s. The fettuccine here is a surprising standout, with a cream sauce brightened by lemon, white wine, and thyme for an appealing balance that’s miles from the stodgy fettuccine alfredo stereotype. And the simple spaghetti marinara might be the only rendition in town that can tide over an East Coast transplant til their next visit back home. With all their pastas coming in at under $15, Donna’s pays homage to pasta’s origin story: an understated but carefully made egalitarian and delicious food for the people." - Eater Staff, Mark DeJoy
