What the critics say ...

Best Ambiance - La Spiga

"Modern but very tactile, the new La Spiga has special dining zones to break up the vastness of the space: a funky bar up front, enveloping booths in the dining room, an indusutrial-chic patio out back and above it all, a vast mezzanine for private parties and a bird's-eye view of the action."

Seattle Magazine

Cozy Grandeur at the New La Spiga

“The place is mobbed, and for good reason: it is soaringly, screamingly beautiful…There’s movement and airspace and the unmistakable electricity of people actively enjoying themselves, some speaking Italian. …

Secondi courses, like a hug from a big, bosomy woman, practically smother you in happiness.
Grilled sausage offers two immense, herby patties with grill-marked triangles of polenta served atop a lake of fontina cheese.

…the all-Italian wine list (which prompted an aficionado to deploy the term “winegasm,”…)
is mind-bogglingly long, with lots of high-and low end options. “

Bethany Jean Clement, The Stranger

Osteria La Spiga grows in size but gets even better

“…it's easy to see why the new La Spiga has been packing them in almost since it opened, even on normally slow Mondays and Tuesdays. Its prices are more than fair, its atmosphere alluring, and its food, once you know your way round the menu, terrific. The place already is a Capitol Hill hot spot… ”

Roger Downey, Seattle Weekly

The new La Spiga is bigger, glossier — and still fantastico!

“With nearly 6,000 square feet of restaurant space wrapped around a big-time bar, the new La Spiga is less an osteria than an Oh!-steria. No longer a homey little hangout for nonno and his pals, it now resembles a chic chalet at a hip ski resort — just ditch the slopes and add a warm-weather patio and a view of Seattle's cityscape. Beautiful, comfortable and gone gonzo with good energy, the new digs prove that bigger can actually be better. ”

“Thanks so much to you, Sabrina & Pietro, Christine, and the entire staff who made our party such a fantastic success.  Everything went so smoothly and there was such a warm feeling of love, homelike hospitality, and fun.  For such a huge party, everything came off so well.  We enjoyed the wonderful wines and fantastic food. Each course was beautifully prepared. 
The tiramisu was the best I've ever tasted.   It really felt as though we had been transported magically to a beautiful Italian Villa.  Our children were really overwhelmed with the beauty of the evening.  Thank you for taking care of the zillion details, which I never thought of.  The little place menus were a wonderful touch. Your staff was beyond helpful, always there but not intrusive.  Our family and friends all were so impressed, and I hope they will all return to sample the rest of the menu.  Again, thank you for making the engagement party so truly memorable.  We hope you all have continued success and continue to provide such a wonderful place to celebrate with family and friends.  With much appreciation, we will see you again.”
