    We partook in the tasting menu with wine paring on 1.27.25. Excellent culinary skills showcased all evening. Pasta cookery was standout! Hats off to the whole team! Service was friendly, informative, and attentive. A touch pricey but worth the splurge. Thank you Spinasse, for the special evening!!

    This place is famous for a reason. Staff is super welcoming and professional. The ambiance is romantic and clean. Food is delicious and all around a wonderful experience. We got the Caesar salad, Lamb Shank, Lasagna, and hazelnut bookie cake. All were fantastic and a great experience. Definitely worth the price tag in one of Seattle’s most popular restaurants.

    I went in January with some business associates. We sat inside which is small and intimate with outstanding service and food. I'll bring my wife back when it's warmer so we can sit out in the courtyard. Great for a romantic evening.

    Our latest visit to Raccallto was outstanding. Everything we had was just about perfect. Started with the roasted brussell sprouts and beet salad and both were excellent. The bread service was great, too, with a foccacia that had a crust on it like I've never had before -- in a very good way! We were almost stuffed after the first course! The pastas were incredibly well done. There was a mushroom agnolotti that was simply amazing. One of the best pastas I've had in years. We also had the tonnarelli and cavatelli, too. The tonnarelli was also stand-out. For proteins, we had the scallop and the pork belly. Both were cooked perfectly. I'm typically cautious about pork belly because it can come across as fatty, but this dish was rendered perfectly. Raccollto remains one of the best places to dine in West Seattle. My last visit was just so-so and it was the only time I had a less than a stellar visit. I provided feedback, and clearly they listen well, because they definitely NAILED every single dish. It was delightful.
