Trophy Cupcakes and PartyJanuary 23, 2012Sit at the bar to you can watch the pasta being made. Beautiful! Try the Poached egg with fonduta and local black truffles and the Tajarin with butter and sage- a fine cut egg pasta. top 10 for sure!
Chelsea BalkanOctober 27, 2017#FabuLIST #DubiDO get their fresh homemade pasta. Loved the Tajarin Al Burro E Salvia. Reminded me of a Ceci e Pepe. Service is great. Romantic rustic atmosphere.
Jon B.September 4, 2017Delightful Italian ristorante in Capital Hill. Loved the sardine antipasto and tajarin con burro e salvia pasta. Also features a nice Piedmont focused win list. Great date place.
Jason MaFebruary 11, 2021Quite possibly the best pasta you can get in Seattle. Hand-made, buttery deliciousness that just melts in your mouth. Absolutely delightful.
Rachel KJuly 1, 2022Absolutely delicious - all of it. Favorite dish: insalata di carciofi with artichoke hearts in a mascarpone and hazelnut sauce.
Lee HoffmanJuly 19, 2021INCREDIBLE meal. The brisket bruchette was one of the best things I’ve ever had. The brisket pasta was INSANE. The butter pasta and brocolli were fantastic. Yum.
Igor PankinDecember 22, 2017Really good Italian restaurant, we have tried prosciutto, pasta and stake, everything was so delicious. Highly recommend to try this place.
Johnnie SkywalkingApril 12, 2018We all know this place has awesome pasta but next time I come, I come here for this onion dish.
Vic B.June 18, 2017Really good Italian restaurant, we have tried prosciutto, pasta and stake, everything was so delicious. Highly recommend to try this place.
Aaron AllonNovember 25, 2018Melted cheese with soft egg and a side size of prosciutto is fabulous. All the pasta. Get’em. They’re amazing.
Tanya PhamMarch 3, 2013Our favorite was the fine cut egg pasta with butter and sage -- delicious. The Swiss chard rolls & butter poached duck breast were also notable, as was the lemon curd dessert. Great wine selection.
The Wall Street JournalMay 14, 2015Don't miss the hand-cut egg pasta with butter and fried sage. Low-carbers won't be disappointed by the king salmon wrapped in chard. Read more
The menu degustazione is a great value and totally worth it. It's not so much a tasting menu as one of each item on the menu.
Try the ciopilini starter, any pasta is deelish, and finish with a glass of Amaro from Montenegro.
EVERYTHING is great. We branched out and beyond our favorites we loved the Cippolini onions stuffed with sausage. So mild and so amazing.
Ashley YueOctober 28, 2016Excellent wine pairing with food and they're the only restaurant that I've been to so far that uses quality extra virgin olive oil.
Lindsey KimOctober 30, 2017Amazing pastas! The signature tajarin with butter and sage is so perfectly simple and understated.
- Johnnie SkywalkingJune 21, 2015Pasta is amazing but don't miss side dish vegetable. Kale is great, Asian flavor in it.
- Michael ArmijoJune 9, 2014A bottle of wine and any homemade pasta here is AMAZING! I love the Tarajin Pasta w/ragu :p
MicheleMarch 26, 2018Must get the homemade egg pasta with butter and sage. It sounds simple but it is to die for.- Seattle MetNovember 9, 2011The hearty cuisine of Italy’s Piedmont region—the marinated rabbit, the truffles, the big butter sauces—is impeccably, consistently thrilling at this rustic wood-hewn ristorante in Pike/Pine.

Pawel PietrykaMarch 23, 2016This place and its pasta plus secondi dishes were incredibly good. So far my favorite restaurant in Seattle.
The International Recipe SyndicateOctober 13, 2011Spinasse specializes in food from the Piedmont area of Italy. Try the Pre-Fix menu the first time that you visit to sample the many great dishes that they offer.
Chris CamargoSeptember 9, 2015The Cavatelli with ragu is ridiculously tasty. A slightly heartier pasta that is packed with flavor. Just order it.
Onur KaraagaogluMarch 28, 2014Probably best Italian and among the top 5 restaurants in Seattle. Fresh cut pastas are delicious
SmithaJune 15, 2014The hand cut egg pasta with butter and sage was amazing. The description on the menu did not do it justice.- Arnold FarrellJuly 2, 2016Seeing the pasta being made was awesome! Definitely try a couple menu items if you can!
Jeff POctober 29, 2014The homemade pasta, Tajarin with butter and sage might be the best pasta I've ever had. So good!
Tom WilliamsJune 26, 2019The risotto and the Bolognese blew us away. Probably the best restaurant for pasta we ever ate at
Zhen ZengAugust 28, 2016If you are willing to pay $100 and willing to crawl out of the restaurant, then you can try every dish on the menu.
- Everything but the butter and sage pasta and anything rabbit are always incredible.
The Seattle TimesMay 24, 2010A rustic little trattoria with a focus on Piedmont where very good antipasti, homemade pasta and entrees are eaten at communal tables. The food woos — and wows — with straightforward charm. Read more
Daryn NakhudaJune 16, 2012One of my favorite restaurants in Seattle. The tasting menu is a serious commitment, you're probably better off a la carting.
Allison YuOctober 14, 2015Amazing pasta. Good bread. Yummy cheesecakes. Okay service. Make a reservation!
Oliver GravesFebruary 20, 2012Roasted cauliflower and anchovy ravioli was amazing. Don't let the anchovy intimidate you. It's an understatement at most.
- Everything. Some items will sound weird and they’re still great.
Ben RosenbergMay 8, 2013Homemade pastas are absolutely outstanding. You're missing out if you don't try one.
The Capunet is one of the top three dishes I've had all time.
Angela GeeMay 25, 2012Try the Insalata Di Cicoria Di Campo - Chicory salad w marinated rabbit. Delicious!!

"One of the coolest bars in town. Great cocktails (they make a great rendition of the Hot Charlotte) & small plates. Their fried chicken is legendary. Ask for The Needle and Thread. You may be in luck!"
