Description

edit

Artusi is an Italian restaurant and cocktail bar at the intersection of 14th Avenue and Pine Street on Seattle's Capitol Hill.[4][5][6] It is considered a "sibling" restaurant to neighboring Spinasse.[7] Condé Nast Traveler has described Artusi as "a casual drop-in Italian spot where you can sample revelatory cocktails while feasting on epic pasta and meatballs".[8] Guide books by Moon Publications have described the restaurant as a "sunny, modern space",[9][10] and Seattle Weekly has called Artusi clean and minimalist.[11]

The menu has antipasti and desserts,[12] including corn fritters with lime zest, salads, meatballs[13] with marinara, and garlic bruschetta.[14][15] Among cocktails on the drink menu are the Dead Glamour and The Carreras.[16][17]

History

edit

Artusi opened on June 8, 2011.[18] Stuart Lane is the chef.[19]

The restaurant was closed during much of the COVID-19 pandemic, re-opening with dine-in service in October 2021.[20]

Reception

edit

The Not for Tourists Guide to Seattle has said Artusi has a limited food menu and a "disappointing" beer selection.[21] In 2023, The New York Times included Artusi in a list of Seattle's 25 best restaurants.[19] Aimee Rizzo included the business in The Infatuation's 2023 list of the city's best Italian restaurants.[7]
