Cantinetta

"The team behind Il Corvo used to have a pizza spot, too, but it closed because the world is cruel. So if you’re feeling nostalgic and want a pizza along with some fresh pasta, Bar Cantinetta is a good thing to do for yourself. Pasta-wise, get some amatriciana if they have it, and you can’t go wrong with a squash blossom pizza on the side." - aimee rizzo

"The original location of Cantinetta, which now has a few offshoots around the Seattle area, has been a neighborhood favorite since 2009, offering simple but refined Tuscan cuisine. A highlight is the house-made pasta, served up as pappardelle bolognese, tagliatelle with spring sugar snap peas, guanciale, and egg, or classic cacio e pepe. The menu changes seasonally." - Matthew Lombardi, Jade Yamazaki Stewart
