Best Italian Restaurants in Downtown

Booked our table a month ago, was really excited to visit, The pink door doesn’t let us down. The Food was soooo good and we definitely ordered too much for two, we went straight with 4 Fresh Northwest oysters, Bagna Cauda(Hot Bath), Squid Ink Tonnarelli and Mama’s Meatballs; end up packing it for dinner the night as well, but it was so satisfying. Bagna Cauda (Hot bath) is the most amazing, knowing it’s just a “dip” for veggie, however, it’s different —- you have to try it to know how good it is.

Been hearing about this place for years from our friends. We finally tried it out and I’m sorry we waited so long. We will definitely be back. The food was insane yummy and the owner and staff couldn’t have been more welcoming.

I brought my adult daughters here after not having been here in literally decades. It was still the same, great service, professional and the food was delicious. I know it's more of a date night thing, but it was wonderful to have a nice dinner with my daughters after Christmas shopping. I highly recommend.

I recently dined at Il Terrazzo Carmine in Seattle to celebrate a birthday, and it was an exceptional experience. We secured a 5 PM reservation, and the restaurant offers complimentary valet parking inside a nearby garage, which, once validated, is free during dinner service. Though tucked between two large buildings and not visible from the main streets, a quick loop revealed the valet sign. Upon arrival, the friendly staff welcomed us warmly, offering coat check, and the cozy ambiance, complete with chandeliers and an upscale setting, felt perfect for the occasion. Compared to their Bellevue location, the Seattle spot was quieter and more convenient with ideal parking. We began with a few drinks and an assorted antipasti plate, complemented by their delicious freshly baked bread and butter. For the main course, we mistakenly ordered larger pasta portions, but the leftovers were a welcome bonus. The evening ended on a sweet note with a complimentary tiramisu, adding to the thoughtful and memorable experience. I would highly recommend Il Terrazzo Carmine for a date night or celebratory dinner and look forward to returning.

Tulio is our go-to anniversary dinner location, we have been there many times and they always remember us, treat us very well, including reserving our favorite table. The food is always so well prepared. The apple granita over ginger cream after dinner was incredible, as were the special of large scallops and the New York steak, for which they adjusted the sides to my husband's requests.
