Reviews for Cantinetta in Seattle, WA
Wow. Blown away by this incredible neighborhood trattoria. Everything - food, service, cocktails, tiramisu - was to die for. ... Hugely popular, so expect to wait for a table even with a reservation, but SO worth it. We'll be back! Read more
A crisp sparkling wine with the prosciutto and melon on Cantinetta's patio under the drapes linen is pure delight. Immediately... follow with several rounds of pasta so delicious you black out (admittedly I ate the food here so quickly I neglected to takephotos until dessert). The staff here is radical and kind and super knowledgeable, and not afraid to direct your experience towhat is going to work for your evening. Read more
Cantinetta should be on everyone’s list. We love the Wallingford location specifically. It’s the OG. It’s cozy. They make... great cocktails. Long wine list. But most importantly, the food is incredible no matter what you order. The tagliatelle is theperfect go to. Steak was perfect. We’ve tried all the pasta at this point and I can’t say enough good things about it. Freshbread, interesting apps. GET THE TIRAMISU. We’ve been multiple times, there was another couple next to us on a first date.It’s such a unique atmosphere. Read more
This cute and cozy restaurant had great pasta! Their gnudi (like gnocchi but made with ricotta) was incredible with oxtail... sauce. The pappardelle was also delicious. The things we did not enjoy were the focaccia (served cold) and the mozzarella frittiappetizer. Overall I would come back for the ambience and the pasta!! Read more
Great experience. Flew in from Tennessee to meet with my local team. The wait staff was polite and timely. The food was great!... We truly enjoyed the artichokes and the salmon. Would highly recommend to a small group looking for fresh food and greatatmosphere. Read more
I had a very nice and enjoyable dining experience here. I sat inside where the atmosphere is on the romantic side for diners as... the lights are dimmed. They have outdoor seating too with fires to keep you warm. The fried artichoke was nice and crispy. Themozzarella and heirloom tomatoes were simple but delicious. Can’t get enough of it. The buffala mozzarella was super creamy.The melanzane (eggplant) has a nice smoky taste and paired really nicely with the tomato sauce and riccota. The braised rapiniwith Parmesan was delicious, a little bit on the crispier side. We tried the chanterelles risotto, the maltagliati with pacificprawns, and pici cacio pepe and they were all very good. I wish that the maltagliati has more than just 3 prawns. The pasta isall made fresh and you can tell. The dessert Zeppole was amazing. It came nice and warm out of the kitchen. It can be easilyshared as there are 4 pieces. You have to choose between pistachio or Nutella taste. Tough choice. We picked pistachio but Ithought that the taste was not that strong. All in all, definitely a 5 star diner. Read more
Fresh pastas and really good drinks. Service felt personalized even though we didn’t have any particular requests. All the... food options were really good. The neighborhood location is just an additional bonus. Even though the restaurant was relativelyfull, the service was fast and reasonable. Read more
If you have to walk away from a restaurant hungry looking for other restaurants then it's undoubtedly a zero star. The taste and... quality of the burrata and pasta is great. And that's where the good stuff ends. Their portions are so tiny that even afterordering an appetizer, a pasta, and a salmon for two worth $85 we were only half full. At any other Italian restaurant I've beento I'd be more than full with leftovers to take home by spending a third of what I spent here. And that's even the worst part.We were willing to pay more and get more food here but were refused and only offered the dessert menu. This was more than anhour before their closing time. No idea why they'd stop taking orders so early or at least they should've told us that what weorder at the beginning is all we'll get. So disappointed. Had to find another restaurant to go to after this. Read more
