Overview

Opened in 2008 by chef Jason Stratton, Spinasse quickly established itself as one of Seattle's premier Italian restaurants, specializing in the cuisine of Italy's Piedmont region. The restaurant is celebrated for its handmade pastas, particularly the tajarin (thin egg pasta) that is prepared daily in full view of diners. The intimate, rustic dining room with an open kitchen creates a warm atmosphere that complements the thoughtfully prepared regional Italian dishes. Spinasse's popularity has made it one of Capitol Hill's most difficult reservations to secure, especially on weekends when tables are often booked weeks in advance.
