"This was my first visit and I'm a native Seattleite. Had the pea/fava bean puree & shrimp on crostini for appetizer - that was amazing! And the eggplant panini for the main course; wonderful. The bread was excellent; I hate a panini where the bread scrapes the roof of your mouth! The only unfortunate thing is that there was ongoing construction above the back patio and our table for was closest and underneath the action. So plenty of noise, construction workers, etc..."

"Food was very good and the portions were excellent. I would have liked a better seating option since the dining room feels a little cramped. I will be sure to request my preferred area when I make the reservation next time."

"Delicious food. Pasta was fresh and they accommodated our group of 5 omnivores, 1 vegetarian and 1 vegan without any problem. They used fresh, seasonal veggies that were perfectly prepared. One of their special dishes that we sampled was seafood in a spicy sauce over black noodles (spaghetti di Nero). The sauce was fantastic. Our appetizer of La Fettunta (fresh bread, grilled and rubbed with garlic) was delicious and reminiscent of a similar treat we enjoyed in Tuscany. The restaurant is located in a cool little alley off of Pike Place Market."

"We went on a Saturday night and found ourselves at the bar for a bizarre burlesque show after dinner. The service was great and the food was pretty good. I would go back, but on a Sunday or Monday when the trapeze show happens from the ceiling of the dining room. The roof is being resurfaced, so there is black plastic tarp all over the ceiling. It looks ghetto, but is just a temporary fix to keep all the debris from falling in your food."

"Had the lamb porterhouse, which was delightful. Starter course of sauteed calamari was also better than expexted. Recommended for small groups before other events...we were on our way to a Showbox concert which was very convenient / easy walking distance."

"I cannot wait to go back to this place. The people were great, the service quick, the aerial artist was amazing, and the Lasagna...as my daughter put it was heavenly. It was a fantastic way to end a very busy weekend."

"Food was okay,but when you offer carmelized onions they should be carmelized not just grilled. Little details kept it from 4 stars. Was hoping for a great experience and had an okay one."

"This place is just incredible. Our table wasn't ready when we arrived, so we went off to the bar. It was a bit crowded, so we had to stand. But we didn't wait long. Which was unfortunate. The band was outstanding. We were seated at a very nice table. The service was prompt and helpful. The food was just wonderful. I had the Cioppino. My guest had the special (rabbit ravioli). Both were just incredible.

I would definitely go again."

"We instantly fell in love with the ambiance of the restaurant. A quaint little place with a big punch. Immediately transports it's guests to a slice of Italy. The lasagna was superb! Our waiter helped us with the menu and was very knowledgable about referring wines that accommodated our palates. Without knowledge, a trapeze artist entertained us with a whole new atmosphere! The service didn't miss a beat! Looking forward to our next trip to this place!"
