Pizza And Pasta - Seattle

The chef was very friendly and created a great atmosphere. The carbonara was one of the best I've ever had, and I’ve been to Italy! They’re famous for their meatball sandwich, which is considered the best in Washington, and I can see why—it truly deserves the award! That sandwich was like a taste of heaven. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who loves pasta and meatball sandwiches.

However, I do think $20 for a meatball sandwich is on the pricey side, and it would be easier to justify that price if it included a salad or something similar. As it stands, it feels a little overpriced considering how good it is. I also tried the caprese, which was very tasty, featuring a lovely pesto. It was more reasonably priced and came with a side salad. As for vegetarian options, they offer a caprese sandwich and cheese pizza.

The owner of this restaurant was as rude as ever and completely out of line. He even tried to recruit my 4-year-old daughter to work in the kitchen! Yet, he refused to let us sit in the dining area with our one-and-only $50 mediocre pizza because their sign states “no outside food EVEN IF YOU ORDERED FOOD HERE.” I ended up having a bowl of chowder from a neighboring place. When I questioned him, saying, “You can’t let a mother sit with her family after we paid $50 for a pizza? It’s just chowder,” he completely lost it. His reaction was unreasonable and very impersonal. Honestly, the pizza isn’t worth the $50. I recommend going to a proper sit-down restaurant at Pike Place Market for a better experience. For example, try Cutters for fantastic views, food, and service. If you’re looking for something more budget-friendly, visit the Market at Pike.

Pizza, Italian food, I had it here, and please! One taste and I can tell no Italian blood in anything I tasted, where they are from I don't know but if you want to eat good Italian food then don't eat here!! Also the aggravation of sitting truly sucks, they actually had a family move from next to us and they had bought all the desserts from the Pizza and Pasta Bar, but because the main meals were not from them they made a big stink and had them move. I will not spend a dime extra ever at this place when visiting Seattle again. Oh, and the above comment on Italian blood, I have eaten great, fantastic Italian foods made by many non-Italians, but this one is definitely not one of them. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else for good Italian food and a place to sit and enjoy your meal.

We took a piece before realizing we needed a picture for the review. This pizza was AMAZING. The crust was light but not too salty. The mozzarella cheese was perfectly balanced. Bruno and his staff were very friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend trying this place.
