Reviews for La Medusa in Seattle, WA
Fabulous meal. Only down side is our server added gratuity to a four top table without telling us (NEVER had gratuity added on a... small table and bc they don’t have menus it wasn’t posted anywhere to be seen) so we double tipped on an already expensivemeal. Beware and look closely at the bill. Read more
I went to this restaurant when it first opened, under different ownership and a different female chef, whom I loved. Was... supposed to be Sicilian, not benign "Italian" with Spaghetti. I made a reservation, for my birthday. and the host was extremelyrude when I asked for an ADA accommodation to sit away from the door. You see, when I get very cold, I have. a great deal ofpain. The host was inaccommodating. I wanted to enjoy my dinner, not shiver and try to stay out of pain. I miss the lovely,welcoming and completely accommodating hosts, staff and chefs from before. Wonder where "Sicilian" went as the theme? Read more
This is a cute place where all the pasta is handmade. It's menu is always changing and the atmosphere is very warm. Rustic style... interior. The service is adequate and they charge an auto 18.5% tip. The food is about a 5/10. Sauce is okay for the Spaghetti Iordered and average taste meatballs. The chicken liver my friend ordered in her pasta was a bit strong tasting. My paste tastedgood, as it should. If you happen to be in Columbia City and are hungry it would be fine to stop here, but don't expect amazingItalian fare! Read more
This is one of new favorite restaurants in seattle! I have tried several Italian spots in the city and this is certainly one of... my top five! (Other notable spots I love are Il Nido, Spinasse, Machiavelli, tavolata ) First off, the service was incredible.Our waitress was so sweet and knowledgeable of the menu. We got grandmas greens, the croquette, bread, and mafaldine pasta withbraised beef shank. Everything was stellar!! Particularly the croquette. They have a rotating menu and all the other dishes Isaw also looked good. I need to come back and try everything! The ambience is quaint and definitely has a local feel. I lovedit. I felt like I was in Italy. There are no bells and whistles, just good food, good service, and warm energy. A trueneighborhood gem. Read more
Everything was exceptional. It's really difficult to find quality, authentic Italian food in the PNW but this is IT. The food... is exquisite - simple but masterfully created with quality ingredients. Possibly the best olives I've ever eaten. Get acocktail, order multiple dishes, and definitely get dessert. Plus they just opened the fabulous vermouth bar/market nextdoor. I almost teared up from the pure pleasure of the entire experience. I live in Chehalis and it is 100% worth the trip. Ilook forward to my next visit! Read more
Had a very delicious dinner at La Medusa. Loved the ambiance, service was excellent. Ordered a bunch of appetizers and pastas -... everything was awesome. The only downfall of the meal was none of our Canadian credit cards worked on their machine. My parentsare still there working off the meal in kitchen. Read more
Always a hit and never a miss. I didn't add any pictures of the food because they are already all out there to see. The quality... and taste of this food remains the same each time I have it. Outstanding! Equal to the food is the customer service. Here it isNew Year's Eve and our servers are not making us feel rushed to eat and get out so another group could be served. Pulled up andparked right outside the front door. The atmosphere is quaint and cozy. You can pick anything off the menu and it's going to begreat. Will continue come back again and again. The food is fresh and simple and most of all...delish! Read more
Food was excellent! Service was great, the only issue was that it took over 40 minutes for the entrees to arrive after we... finished our appetizers. Read more
