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.

We were able to snag a reservation for Spinasse about one month before our visit-even then, the times available were 5 or 9 PM. We opted for 5 PM, and were seated promptly when they opened. My husband and I ordered the Tajarin Al Ragu and it did not disappoint! Loved watched the fresh pasta in the making, and our server was fantastic. Not local to SEA, but would visit again.
