SanilOctober 28, 2017This was my first Ethan Stowell restaurant, and I simply loved it. The sourdough bread - the best bread appetizer I’ve had. Strozzapreti (buttery) and Duck Confit were amazingly delicious!- Vincent LaceyJanuary 5, 2015Everything is shareable so get about 2 plates per person (factor in dessert). Recommend polenta fritters to start, pork belly for meat, and strozzapreti for pasta. But remember menu changes!
Fresh ingredient and love the pasta. Very friendly services. If you can't reserve a table, try to walk in, they have some counter seats. Lastly, Dessert is fantastic - we tried chocolate butter cake.
Ulysses .November 20, 2017Stellar in every way. Exceptional and attentive service. Every food we tried was something we’ve never had before. Chicken liver mousse! What an anniversary treat! Will definitely be back.
Connie LuOctober 3, 2013Delicious farm to table Italian-style New American. Great wine selection (loved the Dolcetto) and the soft cooked egg with dungeness crab! Gooey duck pasta is awesome as well.- I have been here multiple times. They don't have a big menu but it changed often. I'm a fan of Ethan Stowell, there are some other restaurants he has in the city. Pasta is definitely a try!
HoffSeptember 8, 2013Unbelievable meal! Heirloom tomato salad, chicken liver mousse, hamachi crudo, risotto with corn, marscapone and chanterelles and bucatini with crab, basil, and grape tomatoes. Mind blowing.
M DAugust 12, 2015Quiet & cozy atmosphere. I can see why people say it's good for dates. The agnolotti w/ butternut squash & brown butter is amazing!
Josh PhillipsAugust 30, 2011The beef carpaccio was amazing, clams had a great tangy sauce but the real star was the panna otta with saba, pistacchios and fresh mangoes. So good we had to order a second one!
JordynJune 10, 2018Everything is amazing (bonus points for the MFK Fisher reference) but I would come here just for the incredible bread.
Ahmet 🧿November 19, 2014Awesome small plates: try grilled baby octopus with beans. Pasta recommendation: spaghetti with anchovies. Order a red wine!
Ashley MurphreeSeptember 3, 2014The pasta with poach tuna was amazing, pork tenderloin with cooked perfectly and delicious!
Sherry LiJuly 6, 2015So awesome. Great service and wine suggestions. The hamachi is really good, as is their bolognese pasta.
Melissa DoroquezJanuary 16, 2022Every single dish is amazing. We were going to order 3-5 dishes and ended up with 8.
Sergio LopezApril 4, 2018Staff is incredibly nice and know the menu very well. They also have an amazing wine selection.
Mirek NowakFebruary 16, 2018Really enjoyed the pastas and the barata. Oh, and the cocktails are very well done.
Emily TseFebruary 12, 2012Try the Chocolate Pudding Cake with peanut butter gelato and peanut brittle - So good. The picture does not do it justice!!!
Paul DavidsonOctober 16, 2011Make sure you have the gnocchi and a vodka tonic. Great italian food to die for. Worth the annoying parking situation.
Windermere SeattleMarch 31, 2015Truly our favorite Ethan Stowell restuarant! The Chicken Liver Mousse and Beef Carpaccio make it hard to stay away.
Mandee HFebruary 2, 2013Adorable, the staff is savvy but not pretentious. Sit at the bar and watch the show. Makes it thrice as tasty.
Bridget GaelJuly 21, 2018Great for dates— squash blossoms, gnocchi, & chocolate brownie were highlights
Great food, drinks and service but a little too LOUD, small, and dark.
Ask for "The Professor". It's an off the menu cocktail that will have you coming back often.
Raw plates, beef carpaccio and escolar tuna if u r a fan of super white tuna sashimi, both simple but delish!!!
The Seattle TimesMay 25, 2010The Italian-inflected menu has no big platters of family-style entrees like sister restaurant Tavolata, but there are several pastas plus a lengthy list of appetizers. Consider the halved eggs. Read more
Tammy GordonNovember 20, 2009adorable. cozy. friendly. prosecco. soft buffalo mozza, pear & arugula salad. seared scallops. potato gnocchi w bacon. HOT chefs. i likey.
Try the frisee salad... it used to come with other nuts, but the pistachios now make the salad delectable.
Chefs FeedAugust 5, 2014Shaun McCrain, chef of Book Bindery, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Chicken-liver mousse. Read more
Menu changes frequently, and everything is always delicious!
Mercedes YaegerAugust 2, 2010Waiting to see when the delicious anchovy pasta is back on the menu - so delicious
Luke HamiltonMay 12, 2010Great playlist! And it's always a good sign when you can't taste the coke in a jack and coke.
The staff is AWESOME - try mario's "le Mario" yummy!

"Aside from Alki, this is one of the all time best lookout points to see Seattle's skyline.Great place which includes downtown, Space Needle, ocean, and Mount Rainier. It was breath-taking."
Kristine Gelsano - 7.7
"If you want to go healthy, go with the original tart and fresh fruit. For the rest of us, any of the chocolate flavors and gummy bear toppings always works."
