Sit 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!

#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.

Delightful 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 Ma

Quite possibly the best pasta you can get in Seattle. Hand-made, buttery deliciousness that just melts in your mouth. Absolutely delightful.

Rachel K

Absolutely delicious - all of it. Favorite dish: insalata di carciofi with artichoke hearts in a mascarpone and hazelnut sauce.

Lee Hoffman

INCREDIBLE 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.

Melted cheese with soft egg and a side size of prosciutto is fabulous. All the pasta . Get’em. They’re amazing.

Michelle N

Try the ciopilini starter, any pasta is deelish, and finish with a glass of Amaro from Montenegro.

Johnnie Skywalking

We all know this place has awesome pasta but next time I come, I come here for this onion dish.

Tanya Pham

Our 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 .

Ashley Yue

Excellent wine pairing with food and they're the only restaurant that I've been to so far that uses quality extra virgin olive oil .

Eater

Jason Stratton has made the trattoria inexorably his own with memorable pastas and Piedmont-influenced fare. Plus its recent expansion makes it (slightly) easier to get a table. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

EVERYTHING is great. We branched out and beyond our favorites we loved the Cippolini onions stuffed with sausage . So mild and so amazing.

Lindsey Kim

Amazing pastas ! The signature tajarin with butter and sage is so perfectly simple and understated.

Jen Au

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.

Daniel Mejia

Tajarin con burro e salvia is the best pasta I’ve ever had

Johnnie Skywalking

Pasta is amazing but don't miss side dish vegetable . Kale is great, Asian flavor in it.

Pawel Pietryka

This place and its pasta plus secondi dishes were incredibly good. So far my favorite restaurant in Seattle .

Michael Armijo

A bottle of wine and any homemade pasta here is AMAZING! I love the Tarajin Pasta w/ragu :p

Chris Camargo

The Cavatelli with ragu is ridiculously tasty. A slightly heartier pasta that is packed with flavor. Just order it.

Michele

Must get the homemade egg pasta with butter and sage . It sounds simple but it is to die for.

Seattle Met

The 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. Read more

Karina Estrella

The ragu and butter/sage tajarin pastas are incredible!

BestOf

The pasta alone is worth a trip to this pricey , recently expanded Italian eatery on Capitol Hill . But the rest of the menu lives up to the standard set by those glorious noodles . Read more

Onur Karaagaoglu

Probably best Italian and among the top 5 restaurants in Seattle. Fresh cut pastas are delicious

Tom Biro

Best sit-down Italian food in Seattle proper.

Tom Williams

The risotto and the Bolognese blew us away. Probably the best restaurant for pasta we ever ate at

Jeff P

The homemade pasta , Tajarin with butter and sage might be the best pasta I've ever had. So good!

Smitha

The hand cut egg pasta with butter and sage was amazing. The description on the menu did not do it justice.

The International Recipe Syndicate

Spinasse 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.

The Seattle Times

A 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

Allison Yu

Amazing pasta . Good bread . Yummy cheesecakes . Okay service. Make a reservation !

Tom Moore

Everything but the butter and sage pasta and anything rabbit are always incredible.

Arnold Farrell

Seeing the pasta being made was awesome! Definitely try a couple menu items if you can!

Christophe Lamperti

The pasta with butter and sage was excellent.

H K

Awesome place with fresh pasta .

Ambrose Follows

Butter sage angel hair is to die for!

Oliver Graves

Roasted cauliflower and anchovy ravioli was amazing. Don't let the anchovy intimidate you. It's an understatement at most.

Tom Moore

Everything. Some items will sound weird and they’re still great.

Barry Hott

Remarkable creative Italian dishes . Loved everything we ordered.

Zhen Zeng

If you are willing to pay $100 and willing to crawl out of the restaurant , then you can try every dish on the menu.

The food was incredible along with the service. Can’t wait to go back.

Eat everything. Then save room for the panna cotta !

Daryn Nakhuda

One of my favorite restaurants in Seattle . The tasting menu is a serious commitment, you're probably better off a la carting.

Nick Jordan

The Capunet is one of the top three dishes I've had all time.

Tom Moore

The pastas are all outstanding along with anything rabbit .
