The Best Italian Restaurants In Seattle - Seattle - The Infatuation

"Italian restaurants in the PNW that end in “Ristorante Italiano” tend to be underwhelming duds. But we’d choose this excellent Issaquah spot over almost every other pasta spot in Seattle proper. Jammy short rib-stuffed ravioli swim in a marsala-splashed cream we’d gladly lick off the bottom of an old shoe. Chewy gnocchi with ragu is rich and meaty. And we devote about four minutes of every day thinking about their creamy cheese tortellini with pancetta and peas. This tiny place isn’t a secret, so call ahead to get a reservation, unless you want to wait for a chatty group to finish an entire bottle of Chianti." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
