Osteria la Spiga

At first, you question why they charge for bread, but once you try it, you'll understand it's well worth the price - Just wow. Honestly, we could've had only bread for dinner and that would've been a wonderful experience. The gnocchi was fantastic with rich and bold flavors, while la Spiga's tiramisu dish was one of the best we have had in the Seattle-area. We'll definitely be adding la Spiga to our rotation

Seriously, my meal at La Spiga in Seattle really stuck with me. I loved the taste of everything. That Tagliatelle al Burro di Tartufo was so rich and flavorful, I could have eaten it all night. And the Pappardelle al Coniglio? So comforting and delicious. But honestly, the Panna Cotta al Caramello (pictured) was the perfect ending. It was ✨👌🏽 It was definitely my favorite place I ate at in Seattle.

Coolest warehouse vibe and great Italian food in Chophouse row. Awesome cocktail and wine selection. Food is always well done with fresh ingredients. One of our favorite casual Italian restaurants in Seattle, and especially great for special occasion.

Take advantage of happy hour entrees $2 less. $5 for small bread basket.

Decent Italian Place. Limited meat options. Mixed feelings. Overall: 4.2/5 Location: 4.5/5 Ambience: 4.5/5 Taste: 4.3/5 Quantity: 4.5/5 Meat Options: 2/5 Dessert Options: 3.5/5 We were a group of 40 went to this place in August. The pasta tasted good. Zucchini tasted nice compared to other italian places. The veggies were tasty too. Filetto Estivo got mixed reviews from the group. Either it was over cooked or undercooked. But did not taste bad. Chicken and Seafood options were very limited. Decent Pork and Steak options available.

We hosted a rehearsal dinner for 36 people on a Friday evening. Throughout the planning process, the team at Osteria la Spiga was responsive and helpful. The service the evening of the event was attentive. The mezzanine was an appropriate size for our group and offered a warm atmosphere. Above all else, the food was amazing! Our guests were impressed and appreciative. I would not hesitate to recommend Osteria la Spiga.

We were seated for our reservation at 5:15. We were told our server was running late. Ten minutes later the server showed and took our drink order. We thought things were back on track but our drinks didn’t come for another ten minutes. There was one other table being used at the time. Our table was sticky and uneven. We had to ask our server to wipe the table down. She did half of it. We placed our order and almost 40 minutes later our entrees arrived. It is now 6:20. We had consumed another drink while waiting. The food arrived and it was bland. But what we discovered is that it seemed to just be microwaved portions as a rather sizable piece of tinfoil was on the entree, slightly baked into the cheese. It was an unfortunate bite. We alerted the staff and they said they would take care of it. Not more than five minutes later, the hostess came over To tell us that it was their policy to leave at 7:00 for reserved front tables. We explained to this person - the same one who we explained the tinfoil issue to - that I was still waiting on my entree. She then got rather defensive and stated that sorry but it’s their policy. The entree came. The experience at this point had already soured the experience and the food just tasted even more bland. Then when we received our check, we noticed that while they had removed the first entree with the error, they added it back with an additional three dollar cost. They tried to make it right by comping the dessert, but because of the placement of the seats - that we were being rushed out of - several Bugs landed on our dessert. Go somewhere else where they treat you better.

Great environment - spacious with good vibe, for dating as the live jazz piano and singing was a huge plus! Food-wise is good but not like amazing, with a wide selection of pasta 🍝, desserts 🍨, and drinks. Maybe we just didn’t order the right stuff while I had a really high expectation.

I discovered Osteria la Spiga after watching the owner on an episode of Chopped for the Italy cooking challenge they had and the owner won the episode for her region and came in second place in the final episode. I was super excited to come here and right as we walked in, I loved the open style of the restaurant and the high ceilngs/windows. We were seating right by the window in the perfect spot and enjoyed that the two-top tables had plenty of room on the table themselves and inbetween other tables. The service was great! Our server was very attentive and nice. Now on to the food... Appetizers: Calamari - perfectly breaded and great flavor. gnocco fritto (v) - fried bread puffs - I wish these had a sauce to dip in or stuffed with cheese. They just tasted like beignet dough, which wasn't a bad thing just needed some more flavor. Tigelle alla Parmigiana - This was very tasty! It was on their happy hour menu and I loved the grilled eggplant Dinner - Pasta is a must! But if I were to come again, I'd order a pasta and something from the secondi menu. Gnocchetti all'Ossolana - Mushroom Gnocchi, can't go wrong. This was very savory and the flavors were very cohesive. I loved how soft the mushrooms were in this dish. Lasagne Verdi - YUM YUM YUM - this just melted in your mouth. Such good flavors, I would order this again. Lastly, this deserves it's own highlight because it was SO tasty - I ordered two of them! The Passionfruit Lime Soda (spiritless drink) was my favorite thing I ordered. I wanted to take it home! It was super refreshing and not overly sweet. Overall, there is a wide variety on this menu and everything we tried was very tasty. Highly recommend for a little date night spot!

I'm sad to say that our experience at Osteria la Spiga was average. Our group of nine made an reservation for a dinner. We kicked off the evening with a round of drinks and apps for the table. I felt that the drink menu was pretty lacking and was bummed to see there weren't any tequila options. I typically try to stick with the restaurant's menu, so I can experience their signature beverages. Since I didn't gravitate towards any of the beverages, I ordered an off-the-menu paloma. This drink was served incredibly sour and was a bit tough to finish. For dinner I ordered the truffle gnocchi. I found this meal to be below average, and was pretty disappointed considering each plate was over $20.

I visited Osteria La Spiga during Seattle Restaurant Week and was thoroughly impressed by the pasta dishes! Gnocchi al Pomodoro The gnocchi was absolutely delicious--pillowy, flavorful, and served in just the right portion. A true standout dish. Lasagne Verdi I also tried my friend's Lasagne Verdi, and honestly, I loved it even more than my dish. It was so rich, flavorful, and perfectly layered. Highly recommend giving this one a try! Torta di Nocciola For dessert, I tried the Torta di Nocciola, a flourless chocolate and hazelnut cake. While it wasn't quite my favorite due to its strong hazelnut flavor and crunchy texture, I'd recommend it to anyone who loves nutty, textured desserts. Overall, a good dining experience, and I'd definitely come back for the pasta!

Always an amazing experience here. Food is great, Service is great, and the ambiance is warm.

Ambience and lighting in the restaurant was nice but food was very average especially for Seattle's food scene which has a lot of great options; I would go elsewhere for Italian food in Capital Hill.

I came here for a company dinner and was really impressed by the restaurant. It has a beautiful rustic-modern vibe, with lots of wood accents and elegant white china and crystal. The staff was fantastic, and the bartender was especially friendly. The menu had a great selection, with antipasti and several rounds of entrees for our large group. My favorite dish was the squash ravioli, and the tiramisu for dessert was absolutely delicious!

Osteria la Spiga's Prosciutto di Parma offers a respectable experience for those craving this classic Italian delicacy, but falls short of achieving greatness. This restaurant aims to capture the essence of authentic Italian cuisine, but my recent visit left me with mixed feelings. Firstly, the prosciutto itself was of decent quality. Sliced thinly and served with precision, it showcased the characteristic saltiness and delicate texture expected of this renowned cured meat. However, I couldn't help but feel that it lacked the depth of flavor and complexity that truly exceptional prosciutto should possess. While enjoyable, it didn't leave a lasting impression. I think I could have gotten the same quality from Costco but I'm paying for the atmosphere Additionally, the presentation of the dish left something to be desired. While I understand that simplicity is often key in Italian cuisine, the plating felt somewhat lackluster. A little more attention to detail in the arrangement could have elevated the overall dining experience. Furthermore, the service was adequate but lacked the warmth and attentiveness that one would hope for in a fine dining establishment. While the staff was polite, there seemed to be a lack of enthusiasm and genuine passion for the food they were serving. In summary, Osteria la Spiga's Prosciutto di Parma provides a satisfactory experience for those seeking a taste of Italy, but it falls short of delivering the exceptional quality and memorable dining experience that one might expect. With a few adjustments to both the flavor profile of the prosciutto and the overall presentation and service, this dish could truly shine.

Well first off we were really excited to try this place based on the stars and the menu, however we found the food to be less than desirable (pasta cold and very aldente, beef cheeks cold and fatty, lentil soup was amazing, service slow and hostess kept rushing us for the table as we explained the problem was not us but the pace of service, better options out there, not worthy of the 4+ stars in my opinion

We have been enjoying their food since they opened in 1998 but I regretfully have to say that the meal we had on December 31 was such a terrible disappointment. 3 main courses arrived luke warm, under seasoned or with questionable seasoning never mentioned on the menu ( cocoa powder and chili on my supposed chestnut/ricotta Gnocchi with cream sauce and mushrooms??), sadly overcooked lasagne, cold sauce -less beef missing one of the sides, a dessert floating in a mess of an undisclosed coffee like sauce...wines by the glass were overpriced and seriously subpar... And excuse me who serves Prosecco for $100 a bottle??? Sorry but regretfully, never going back.

I have to say, the ambiance here is amazing! The combination of live music from their pianist and soft dim lighting makes for such a cozy and intimate atmosphere. What we ordered: - Gnocco Fritto appetizer: honestly, this wasn't my favorite. the bread was a bit doughy and bland for my taste, so probably wouldn't order again. - Gnoccetti All'Ossolana: if you're a fan of mushrooms, this dish is for you! i loved the texture of the gnocci and the mushrooms were so fresh! - Tortelli Di Zucca: a good pick if you like butternut squash - Caipiroshka Della Passione cocktail was so refreshing from the passionfruit and would highly recommend - Tiramisu: so fluffy and a great way to end the night Overall, the food was great but definitely a bit on the pricier side for the portion sizes. Service was also attentive and helpful. Would definitely recommend if you're looking to treat yourself out!

We came on the last day of Restaurant Week. After we were seated, we didn't see our waiter for 20 minutes, and then he said he would be right back, but then took another 20 minutes to come back to talk about wine, and then took another 20 minutes to come back with the wine. So I think we waited for an hour before we got to order our food, and then we waited another hour before we got our food. The food itself was decent but not worth waiting 2 hours for. Also since it was restaurant week, they ran out of ingredients. Gnocchi was fluffy but with chew and the sauce was nicely acidic. The salad had orange but also orange seeds in it, which was a little unpleasant. They ran out of pistachios. Of the desserts, the panna cotta was my favorite because it was so smooth and creamy and the burnt caramel balanced the sweetness. The torta was my least favorite because the texture was very crumbly since it was flourless and hazelnut-based.

Came with a reservation for 2 people @ Saturday 6:45pm and was seated slightly before RSVP time. Servers were friendly and attentive enough to refill waters promptly, without being pestering. We ordered off the restaurant week menu at the beginning and all the courses were paced well. The main entrees didn't come out before we were finished with our apps, and the dessert came a healthy time after the main to let the food settle. We tried a variety of things: - formatting cheese app 2/10 good cheese but tiny portion - Zuppa Del Gino soup of the day, which was a squash soup 6/10 as expected - gnocchi 7/10 good texture but strong tomato flavor was kind of overpowering - tagliatelle al tartufo truffle pasta 10/10 so good! Texture of pasta was fantastic and the flavors were well balanced - not too much truffle! - panna cotta al caramello 8/10 - tiramisu 9/10 - bottle of Nebbiolo wine 10/10 Inside is a lovely vibe. A surprising amount of seating on the main floor and the loft, which we saw some groups there. Would definitely return! Cost was $120 before tip for a three course meal and bottle of wine for two!

The vibe and ambiance is great. They can host large parties and they don't require a credit card for the reservation. The piano player and the lighting create a nice atmosphere. The issue is the food. It's not bad but it's not great - it also doesn't not look very appetizing - there's no vibrancy or creativity at all. To add on to that, some dishes are extremely salty. I would recommend a cocktail and MAYBE an appetizer. Dinner is just not worth it.

Came here with a group of friends on a Saturday evening and it was busy but not crowded. The space itself was great for a meal, and it was easy to hold a conversation without having to raise my voice. Food wasn't great tbh. Much of the pasta was too salty, and the other entrees we got, fish and steak, were well cooked, but not very special. Like, I could have probably gone to the store and bought a nice filet of salmon or a nice steak and made something similar. Nothing stood out at this place, nothing that made me think that it was necessarily worth coming here beyond the ambiance and service. It would be better served as a bar or lounge, in all seriousness. Actually though, change to small plates and keep the cocktail menu. I'm not a business owner, but man really everything but the food was good, which begs the question: is this actually a restaurant if they can't get food down super well? What is a dining establishment sans food? Dining clearly has more going for it than just food, but I really don't know what a restaurant would be without it. Anyway, you can probably make just as good if not better italian food at home, but you can't necessarily eat it with a number of friends on a nice night in cap hill. Unless you have a large dining room in cap hill.

We were very excited to try La Spiga, but sadly, our meal left us quite underwhelmed. My fiancé and I had a reservation at 7pm on a Saturday, and were seated right away in the upstairs loft area. Our waitress was lovely and was quick to check on us and bring us menus. We decided to order the prosciutto (half board) appetizer to start. This was probably one of the more sad looking appetizers I have ever ordered in the Seattle area. It came with about 4 or 5 warmed pita slices in a bag, some prosciutto slices and a little side of mustard. It was very plain and the presentation was disappointing. This is something I could have made at home. For our entrée we split the Filetto (beef tenderloin), tagliatelle al ragu and tagliatelle al burro di tartufo. The star of the show was the ragu. It was a very fresh tasting sauce and my fiancé and I both enjoyed it. I had high hopes for the truffle tagliatelle, but it really just tasted like buttered noodles with hints of truffle (even with the shaved black truffle add-on). In last place, came the beef tenderloin. Although it did have some good flavor, it was overcooked and the mashed potatoes had virtually zero flavor. I will say that the ambience was lovely. The bar area is beautiful and the restaurant has an open and airy feel to it. However, we will likely not be returning based on the overall experience.

Not sure why reviews are low. This place was absolutely delicious. We gnocchi pomodoro, beef sausage with amazing house salad. Squash and tomato soup and spinach lasagna. Atmosphere was incredible and excellent service from Marcus.

it was..... ok. the restaurant itself is super cute and lots of space and beautiful tall windows, but food was just ok. we got the soup of the day which was butternut squash. it was very average, came out lukewarm and didnt have anything outstanding about it, they did give quite a large amount of it. we also got the cheese plate, which was actually kind of a funny dish, it had 3 little pita chip like crisps and two small wedges of cheese and a spoonful of a fruit jam? it was ok. for entrees we got the lasagna, it tasted ok, not bad but not special, but the pasta layers were maybe overcooked so it was just one mushy slice. we also got the truffle butter pasta, and the truffle flavor was strong but slightly oversalted, and it really was just tryffle butter and pasta, it probably couldve used some protein or veggies of some sort. for dessert we got the flourless hazelnut and chocolate cake, which was again, just ok. the tiramisu was good though. for the price, i think i expected a little bit more.

Hmm, I can't believe this is my first time here. We came early and I think the staff forgot about us for awhile. But we sat at the window, caught up and did some dedicated people watching. Pacing was off a bit as we ordered an app and our pasta came out rapidly after. So we hurried through the early nibbles to get to the pasta, which was solid.

This place is... okay. A little underwhelming if I'm being honest. The interior is beautiful, with tall windows and the ambience of a very romantic restaurant. The food was.. definitely not up to par with the expectations. The pasta we ordered was okay, not particularly good or stand-out, but not particularly bad either. The portion size was tiny for the price. We also ordered the formaggi, which was advertised as a cheese plate but ended up being more like a glorified Lunchable. It was 3 pita slices, two tiny cuts of cheese, and a spoonful of some nuts soaked in honey. The only redeemable part of the plate was the spoonful of nuts, but it was such a weird amalgamation of ingredients and such a tiny portion it was almost laughable. The salad and fried polenta we ordered was also nothing to write home about. Overall, I think this place is way too expensive to be serving the food that it is. I'd recommend checking out any of the other restaurants on this street instead, as you'll probably leave here hungrier than when you arrived.

One of ours to go places for any celebration. The ambience is so nice and warm, but elegant, sometimes they have amazing pianists playing, and the menu often changes, so you always get to try new things. The staff is also incredible nice. We always go for any of the bread services (they are all incredible), the soup (yesterday was tomato), and two pastas to share. Always a great experience to come back!

Pros: the restaurant is spacious and beautiful! Excellent location! Service is decent too. Our server was friendly and attentive. Cons: the food was mediocre at best. We ordered caprese salad for appetizer and that was decent. But other than that our two mains were underwhelming. The filet was mediocre at best and not cooked as asked. The pasta was overcooked and chewy. The server agreed that it tasted overcooked and he comped it but we were rather disappointed. Overall do not recommend this place!

We had 15+ people to host for a mini grad-school reunion dinner recently, and since planning was a bit last minute, finding a spot in Seattle proved very tricky. Luckily, Osteria La Spiga was able and willing to accommodate. While it took a bit of a back-and-forth with the events team to get this reservation squared away, the dinner itself was a success. For larger groups, they recommend ordering appetizers ahead of time, which worked really well. Everything that landed on the table was absolutely delicious - from cheese and prosciutto platters to grilled veggies to main courses: my pan-seared Columbia river sturgeon with cannellini bean, rosemary, and tomato farrotto was *chef's kiss*. Food-wise, my only complaint was the size of the cheese platter - it was modest, and I was hoping for some more variety. But it is me not being much of a carnivorous creature. The service was friendly, and while it was not an easy feat to keep 16 people (including rather small kids) happy, they did well.

OMG!!!!! The best fresh handmade pasta I have ever had. Hands down. We needed to have dinner last minute and found this place on google/ Yelp. We were able to get a reservation right before the kitchen closed. Arrive with time because capital hill is a pain to find parking. We arrived and were welcomed with a warm smile and walked to the end of the restaurant with a great view. We asked the waitress what she recommended. She gave us her recommendations. We ordered the fried bread which was so cool with a side of burrata. My wife ordered the lasagna and I the pasta with truffle butter. Dessert was tiramisu. Everything was to die for!!!! Run here.

Solid Italian spot. 5/5 environment. The ambiance brought me back to the streets of Florence with the music and families enjoying a long dinner surrounding me. The lasagna was a little over cooked but super yummy! 4/5 for the food. The spinach lasagna was over cooked. But the tomatoes sauce was super yummy and authentic! The pork rib was melt in your mouth delicious. And the panna cotta was light sweet and creamy! I would definitely be back when I have an Italian craving.

One of our favorite places to go anytime after an event after a movie, etc. don't miss the plate of prosciutto and the truffle pasta! The wine list and Negronis aren't too bad either!

So bad...server was dirty and described every wine I asked him about as "light." Food was boring and a little gross. Nice ambiance!

Had a great dinner date here before the show at 12th Ave Arts. It was perfect. Great service, lovely ambiance and the food was great. Try the 6 Onion soup. So good and it's easily a meal.

Great service, awesome waitress and staff. Drinks were tasty: tried the Pomo Della Discordia and a dirty martini. Pomo was very sweet and right amount of kick. We ordered the Verdure Grigliate, Gnocchetti Al Pesto and Tortelli Alla Boscaiola. Everything was delicious. Vendure was excellently seasoned! Zero complaints on the quality of the food. Decent portions (my bf was satisfied, I could have eaten another plate). Worth it all around. This was a pretty dope spot. High ceilings, lots of natural light, kinda rustic vibe. Only two drawbacks: 1) It's one of those places where certain tables are positioned so closely, you can hear the entire conversation of the party next to you. Will hopefully snag one of the private booths in bar area next time. 2) Lots of little gnats flying around. Not sure if common, the area we were seated in, or just the weather.

First was for SRW and I'm so sad I didn't come here sooner! Their concept is inspired by traditional food from Emilia-Romagna, which is considered even by Italians to be THE food region of Italy. I lived in Italy for a year and this place feels like home My top recommendations are the gnocco fritto, piadina, prosciutto di Parma, and of course the truffle butter tagliatelle! The pasta is fresh, hand made and the dish is so simple, but completely fulfilling. I brought my family here for the Prosciutto Dinner night, and came again for my birthday dinner this year and both were such special occasions! Everyone was impressed with the experience and food. I can't wait to come back for date night or a post-errand running treat. I highly recommend the prosecco; light, refreshing, and classically Italian. I even bought a bottle to take home Hostesses, bartenders, and waitstaff are all very friendly and welcoming!

This was our second time dining here in the past couple months. The ambience is open and airy, with a hint of rustic barn. Service is fine, but was pretty slow the first time we went. For appetizers, we love the gnocco fritto - these delicious bread puffs with a crispy outside and a warm inside. They pair perfectly with the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We also ordered the cime di rapa saltate - these were crispy rapini (broccolini esque) with just the right along of spice. For entrees, we got the tagliatelle al ragu and split the bistecca con asparagi e gorgonzola (flatiron steak). The highlight of the tagliatelle al ragu is the handmade pasta noodles, thick, perfectly al dente and hold the perfect amount of sauce with each bite. The sauce was a balanced tomato/meat ratio. The steak paired well with the pasta and the asparagus went great with the sauce. All in all, we've enjoyed our visits, and feel like it's a cute date night spot. We definitely see ourselves coming back in the future.

It was my 60th birthday party and look how dry the lasagna is! Most restaurants will throw on lots of marinara sauce and cheese, but they just had dry lasagna and it was expensive and awful stay away from this place because it's over priced and the food is not that great, you get ripped off!

I was underwhelmed. We had such high hopes for this place and it disappointed. The atmosphere was amazing. It was a great location and great setting. The servers were kind and very knowledgeable of the wines and gave a great suggestions for an appetizer (the fried cauliflower). As the evening went on, they were too busy and it was difficult to get out servers attention when we needed her. Just a heads up, they charge for everything....the bread basket and the samples of wine that were offered were all at a cost....which is posted on the menu, but it's also something to be aware of. CAVOLFIORI FRITTI beer-battered and fried fresh cauliflower florettes with la Spiga's herbed sea salt... these were awesome! What a great way to start the meal. GNOCCHETTI VERDE spinach gnocchi with gorgonzola and radicchio walnut pesto... it was basically one note. It was rich and decadent, and needed something to cut it. Either a protein or some type of acidity was needed to elevate the dish. PAPPARDELLE AL CONIGLIO pappardelle with a braised rabbit, white wine and herb sauce... this was a solid dish. I would order it again. SALMONE organic british columbia king salmon with fried polenta, sautéed spinach and black trumpet mushrooms, garnished with marinated bell peppers.... The salmon was cooked perfectly and the bell peppers were the best part of the dish. The polenta & spinach were in a sauce (almost a broth) so it made the polenta soggy and didn't add anything to the dish. The spinach was overly salted. TORTA DI NOCCIOLA Not at all what I was expecting. The description said flourless chocolate and hazelnut cake. It may have had all of those elements but it was not cake like, especially a flourless cake. It had chocolate chips throughout but it was not a chocolate cake. And it was dry. It was not good. We tried a bite and left it. We tried to get the servers attention to let her know that it was not good and we were ignored. IL MASCARPONE DI IDA This was a great dessert! For the price and hype, it didn't really seem worth it. There were some good flavors, but I don't think I would go back.

Upgrading to 5 stars because my love for the truffle pasta has grown, and I have discovered their meal kits! I'm at a point where I'm willing to drive an hour in traffic to eat here, pay $10 for garage parking across the street, and I still find it worth it. I am a creature of habit, so I still order the same thing each time. Prosciutto, full board $18: They should just stop offering a half board. Everyone should be required to get a full board. So good. Tagliatelle Al Burro Di Tartufo $19: I just can't get over how yummy this is. Love the fresh pasta. Love the truffle butter. Pairs perfectly with parmesan sprinkled on top. Chef's kiss. Giacomo James Sangria $14: This was pretty strong! I would try a different drink next time. I haven't found a favorite cocktail here yet, but I think they switch up the menu occasionally so it gives me more to try. I am usually too full to order dessert (plus the Sweet Alchemy ice cream outside tends to call my name). Tagliatelle Meal Kit with Truffle Butter $18: This includes 2 servings. You get frozen pasta (each serving is a separate ball), truffle butter, and parmesan cheese. I made it the night after eating at the restaurant so the comparison would be fresh in mind. It's definitely better at the restaurant, which fair, they can't just sell their secrets to us. The truffle flavor just wasn't as strong in this meal kit, but the pasta quality was still really good, and it makes me want to try their other meal kits. On their website, this is priced at $20.70. I didn't have the foresight to preorder, so I just asked our server if I could still get it to go and luckily it was available! ***** My Star Ratings: 1 Star - Terrible. Just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars - Meh. Unlikely for me to return. 3 Stars - OK. Open to coming back, but wouldn't go out of my way to. 4 Stars - Yummy! Will definitely return if I haven't already. 5 Stars - AMAZING!!! Would plan my day or even a trip around eating here.

Came here for a triple-date during Seattle Restaurant Week and it did not disappoint! The restaurant is spacious, but with a very classy, cozy vibe. Our server was so friendly and attentive. For appetizer a few of us ordered the prosciutto plate, and I had the cheese plate. I was a big fan of the little piadina served with it. For pasta most of us got the tagliatelle al burro di tartufo (truffle butter pasta) and there were zero complaints -- it was perfectly buttery and truffle-y with just a hint of cheese. For entrees, folks got the braised chicken which received high praise. They definitely didn't skimp out on portion sizes for the restaurant week menu! The tiramisu dessert was incredible, and the panna cotta was perfectly fine, but I was so full at that point I couldn't eat it all. Even though we had a very late reservation, we didn't feel rushed at all. Unfortunately our server forgot to tell us that the bar had closed while we were eating, so when we wanted a second drink we could only have wine/beer. Not a huge deal and he was very apologetic. My only other complaint is that you have to go outside the restaurant and downstairs into Chophouse Row to use the restroom, and they weren't in super good shape. But overall the experience was very positive and I'll certainly come again!

This must be the worst restaurant service I ever got in Seattle. The waitress are sweet, but the waiter who supposed "take care" our table that night, are act like dying inside out. One thing, we sit down over 10 minutes, he didn't come to take orders from us, not even drink order. Then when we ask is our pasta cook yet. He's zombie face told us one word" No." we are shock. Normally waiter will said"I'm sorry, let me go check for you." If you are so not happy doing your job, just quit, no need to ruin people's dinner right there. What a funny experience.

Decent ambiance with a live piano man but the food was overpriced for the portions and quality. Server was really nice and blunt about avoiding the appetizers and just getting the entrees. Pasta is good quality.

This restaurant has a huge space that is really pretty and open. The food was quite good. The truffle pasta was by far the best. It's a must. The gnocchi had some vegetable in it that makes it orange and a bit more earthy. My boyfriend liked that but I wasn't personally the biggest fan. Service was okay.

If you're gluten free do not miss this place!! Absolutely incredible gluten free bread and pasta. Ambiance, service, drinks, & food were amazing. I would highly recommend this place if you're visiting Seattle and like good Italian food!!

Came here for restaurant week for a $35 3-course dinner. More of a 3.5 star but rounded up -For appetizer I got the soup of the day which was a chickpea and leek soup, and my friend got the gnocco fritto. The soup was a big portion, but it kind of tasted like a generic store bought one with a salty tomato broth and some cheese thrown in with chickpeas from a can. My friend enjoyed her gnocco fritto although the puffed dough itself was flavorless. -We both got the tagliatelle al burro do tartufo (truffle butter), which was delicious. The house-made pasta was nice and chewy and the butter sauce was rich without being heavy -For dessert, I really liked my panna cotta, but the jam on top again just seemed like generic jam from a grocery store. My friend's tiramisu was ok as well Service is good, but the front can be confusing. They have a sign that says to wait outside the door until a server comes to greet you, and last time I was here I saw them visibly upset when someone didn't see this and walked in. This time, the two people working at the front didn't glance at anyone who was waiting outside, leaving people to come in themselves after a moment of confusion

Took my husband to Osteria La Spiga a few weeks back to celebrate his birthday. It's been a favorite of ours for many years. Such a beautiful space, and such delicious food. Since it was just the two of us, we sat at the bar. Our bartender was congenial and attentive. We shared all of our plates ( so much easier to do when sitting side by side ) and loved everything we ordered. Stand-outs were a creamy six onion soup unlike anything either of us had ever had and an absolutely perfect braised pork shank. Wonderful!

This was my favorite restaurant in the city. Would come here for my birthday, bring family from outside the country and tonight my anniversary. I can no longer say this is my favorite, the service was slow, which is the same as the last visit. We waited for what seem 20 minutes for the entree to be taken. The waitress never wrote the order down or entered immediately into the handheld. She had to come back and verify the order, which was incorrect. When the food was brought to the table one order was not what was expected. She did attempt to make things right, but our anniversary dinner was not going well. After the food was placed on the table, no one came to check back to see how everything was. The waitress got cornered by one customer having a long conversation. At this point the night was ruined.

I seriously cannot say enough good things about this place! After spending an evening here, I am angry at myself for not trying it sooner! I came here for a date night a couple of months back. They have a huge array of wines, which is great, because we typically like ordering by the bottle. I selected the montenidoli at random and it was incredible! The waiter mentioned that it was one of his favorites as well! We started with the bread and prosciutto, which was incredible. They carve the prosciutto fresh and serve it with stone brown mustard and pita - I highly recommend ordering a full board! We also got the insalata mista salad, which was tasty and refreshing. The real star of the show here is the pastas, all of which are hand-made and truly incredible. I had the tagliatelle with truffle butter pasta and I literally have dreams about this pasta. It melts in your mouth, is light, but still incredibly flavorful! Truly perfection! My partner had the bolognese which was delicious as well! This place has claimed the spot of best Italian food in Seattle in my opinion, and I can't wait for many more date nights here in the future.

I went here for a bachelorette party. The ambiance was nice and the place looked adorable. The food was good but not extraordinary.

Came here during restaurant week and the food here was not great. Maybe their regular menu is better. The food took forever to come. The restaurant acknowledged on their own that it was super slow and gave us complimentary champaign to compensate our patience. I would come back to try something on their regular menu, but wasn't a fan of the dishes I did get

Went here with some friends, we had a great time. The restaurant has a nice ambiance and is decorated nicely. Our server was attentive and did a great job in keeping us updated as the kitchen was a little backed up. No worries, it was a great opportunity to catch up. We all loved our food. I had the TAGLIATELLE AL RAGU, very good. The portion was a bit smaller than I expected for the price point.

Eggplant parmesan was excellent (except for a bit too much salt). The grilled vegetable appetizer and the lasagna were also very good. Mascarpone di Ida (their version of tiramisu) was over the top great. Bottle of Prosecco was not really cold -- this seems like an awfully basic error. They were out of bread except for piadina, despite being early in the evening.

The service was second to none! Wonderfully attentive and celebrated our special occasion. The food so so flavorful and delicious we got the groggily and a ragu and the fried cheese dish. All it was amazing such a cool location.

I've been here a few times and love the atmosphere. The food is consistently good and they do have a decent wine list. We typically opt to bring a bottle of our own wine and pay the $30 corkage fee though. This place gets very busy, so definitely make a reservation! Some of my favorites are the gnocchi and tortellini stuffed with squash! If you're in the area and looking for some good Italian food, this is the spot!
