Omg! Artusi or Spinasse? Since they are connected its really just "did you make a reservation or not"?

Great Place for a Celebration. Came here to celebrate a promotion with my boyfriend and left very happy. We sat at the bar which I highly recommend, the bartender was so friendly, very, very attentive and helpful with the menu. The pasta was absolutely delicious, definitely handmade and it melts in your mouth. The food was so different and while a little pricey, it's to be expected with the type of food and quality. We loved every plate we had and the service was excellent, making it a great night to remember.

Loathed it!. Oh where do I begin? I hated this place so much that I signed up with Citysearch just so I could write this review: 1) They obviously didn't think about what would happen if they had people waiting. There is nowhere to wait! You are scrunched between the wall and the railing with servers flying by you with trays of food.

2) They obviously have no concept of how reservations work. We made reservations for 8:30pm, and we weren't seated until 9:30pm. (They also only offered us free appy's after we complained that we'd been standing around for almost an hour.)

3) Apparently, they don't understand the question, "Is this place vegetarian friendly?" They said they are, but they are definitely not.

4) They're push for authenticity ends up making them seem like they're full of it.

5) They shouldn't put things on the menu that they can't make. The rabbit was horribly overcooked.

6) For what we paid, I expected a little taste of heaven, I got noodle-roni.

7) They need to figure out how to work their credit card machine because most people in my party were charged multiple times, and now we're waiting for them to fix it. They also don't seem to be the least bit remorseful.

8) There are a million great Italian places in Seattle, go there. Not here, please not here.

Underwhelming. Bland food, indifferent staff, over-priced...what more could you ask for in a restaurant? I can't imagine it will be around for too much longer...so hurry in.

Worst Pasta in the City!. Worst Pasta in the City!! If you want Italian Cuisine, you should at least have an Italian Chef who knows the food. I had the pasta with mushrooms it was horrible, please at least note on your menu that it is the poor peoples pasta, essentially flour and water, without egg, the flavor was bland, and like eating bowl of paste!

My friend had the pasta Ragu, and it was dry and bland. I just returned from living in Italia the last 6 months and this is not worthy of being considered authentic Italian cuisine of Piedmonte.

Upside, the wine list is excellent, the service was good.

I would not reccomend this restaurant, nor return, unless of course you get an Italian that knows food as Chef!

This is a step down from the owners other restaurant Cafe Juanita.
