Met up with a friend for the first time in a while and we walked into Tutta Bella because there were seats still available for lunch. It’s great having a restaurant with significant capacity. They went with the lunch specials I ordered the Bolognese with the Caesar salad ($15 for the pairing) and he had pizza with Italian sausage, mushrooms, caramelized onions, basil and the Caesar. The food came out in a timely manner, and for those who appreciate food coming out warm: happy to report the meals came out piping hot and very delicious. Neither of us had tried the spaghetti Bolognese before and were so impressed. Will definitely re-order that one again.
The pizza he ordered was called Campany (?) and had Italian sausage, mushrooms, caramelized onions, and basil. The flavor was incredibly well balanced. Also, the cheese was oozing and everything was still hot which always makes pizza so much more delicious.
We also ordered a coffee and a lemon sorbet for dessert. The size was perfect for us to share and the specials made lunch more affordable. Other than parking which is always a challenging Columbia City, it’s worth coming to one of the only places in Seattle that serves dishes that are certified Neapolitan.

Parking: You will have to find street parking, it’s not the restaurants fault!! Worth the walk!
Service: Great! Never felt rushed or pressured to order faster or slower!
Food: You can see the food being prepped/cooked from the main dining area. Food came out fast and so delicious!
We ordered the Bruschetta, Margherita Pizza, Meatball & Ricotta Pizza, and the Warm Caramel Cake to-go. All of it was fresh, fast, flavorful, and the proportions were perfect!
We cannot wait to come back!

I was early for a concert in Columbia City, so I stopped for a coffee at Cafe Umbria in Tutta Bella. As usual, I had an espresso. The coffee came in the cute little cup. It was good. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was charming. Bonus points to the bartender who said “doppio” to describe the coffee.

I wanted some late-night pizza, and Tutta Bella was a convenient choice. Parking isn’t the most convenient since you’ll likely need to find street parking, but it wasn’t too bad. The pizza itself was pretty good and full of flavor. The meat quality was solid, and it’s nice that you can split two flavors on one pizza. Their salads and dressings are always on point too.
My only downside is that I’m not the biggest fan of the thin or floppy center of the pizza, but aside from that, the service was great and the vibes were good

My experience here is limited to desserts and cocktails, for the most part. Finding a local spot is wanting for dessert, or they had run out. This place is tops.
The bar staff are all friendly and knowledgeable, obvious skilled hands hired here. Desserts, I am a sucker for decent Tira Misu. And my experience here is: they totally rock this Lady Finger delight.
For some reason, my wife w/ the menu sez, “Leave the gun.” So, we get this ridiculous Pistachio chocolate chip cannoli served with spoons in a bowl. A few crumbs might make it over the edge, but this ends up being a good call. You have to just bash the tube, and compose your spoonful.
Well done.
They have a new menu w/ a Tutta Bella Old Fashioned, Chocolate and Orange bitters, a bit of Maple Syrup. A truly nice and accomplished variation on an old theme.
Parking is on the street, a block or two off spaces can be free. There is an upstairs area I remember seeing our Chief of Police Best at least a few times in years past, my memory of those days were, the portions were generous. If you were silly enough to eat it all, no room for even the lightest of the Italian desserts (the Italians are exceptionally good at these).
If you want espresso, another reason I have stopped in before shows at the Royal Room as I was walking by… they have the real deal, and supplied by an excellent roaster.

It honestly pains me to write this.
About a year ago, right around Valentine’s Day, this place was incredible. It was our spot. The pasta was rich, the sauces were layered and flavorful, and it felt like a special local gem worth the price tag.
Fast forward one year, and I don’t know what happened.
The flavor just isn’t there anymore. For a restaurant that isn’t cheap (which is totally expected for a nice Italian spot), the dishes felt flat and under-seasoned. It’s starting to taste less like a beloved Seattle original and more like a corporate chain trying to compete with Olive Garden. And I’m genuinely sad to say… we probably would’ve had more flavor at Olive Garden this time.
We also couldn’t help but notice the restaurant felt noticeably emptier than it used to. A year ago it was buzzing and hard to get a reservation around Valentine’s Day. This time, there were plenty of open tables, which honestly made us wonder if others are noticing the same decline.
After a quick Google search, I noticed there’s a new CEO. I don’t know if it’s cost-cutting, a new chef, different sourcing, or what …but something has clearly changed.
A year ago, this was our Valentine’s tradition. Now, we won’t be coming back.
The hunt for a new local Italian spot begins. We’ll be keeping it local.

Amazing, authentic place! True taste of Italy in the Seattle area. Everything was fresh! They make their own sauce and locally sources ingredients. Great and fast service.
I believe this place is the first in the Pacific Northwest to be certified by VPN (Naples Pizza committee).
Bruschetta, Garlic knots were amazing! Peach Burrata salad is a must try!
For dessert we got Tiramisu, canollis and a chocolate almond torta (brownie).
Everything was amazing. Highly recommended.

Really friendly and attentive service. Happy Hour until 6 has some great choices. Pizzas are amazing. Save room for desert.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was genuinely disappointing. I went here for Valentine’s Day and overall had a poor experience.
The beet appetizer was clearly made with canned beets — the texture was soft and metallic-tasting, and there was none of the freshness you expect from house-prepared beets.
The bigger issue was the pasta. It tasted exactly like boxed grocery store pasta and something I could’ve made at home for $5. For an Italian restaurant charging $24–$30 per plate, that’s simply unacceptable. At that price point, you expect house-made pasta, not something that tastes like it came straight from a pantry shelf.
If you’re going to position yourself as an elevated Italian dining experience and charge accordingly, the ingredients and execution need to reflect that. Unfortunately, this felt like paying fine-dining prices for canned and boxed goods. I won’t be returning.

First and last visit unfortunately. Waitstaff was lovely but food had no flavor whatsoever…pizza dough was pretty good but toppings flavorless. Beet salad barely any toppings (nuts or cheese) and very expensive for what seemed like canned beets. Also ordered the seasonal salad which looked beautiful but tasted like nothing, it was so weird. My partner and I both feel quite unwell after our meal (headache, heartburn, bloating).
Not the restaurant’s fault but was seated next to a table with children playing and crawling/rubbing their hands all over the floor, around our table/at our feet and in the walkway. Parents oblivious.
Disappointing after hearing great things.
