Cozy Italian restaurant & bar serving traditional fare & subs in a low-lit dining room or outdoors.

Loved every bit of my experience here! It was BUSY on a Saturday night and my partner and I were seated in a cozy corner booth at the bar quickly. The bartender working was absolutely fabulous. Our drinks and appetizers came out so fast and our food came later on which was so lovely because it gave our tummies a break. We ordered minestrone to share, a shareable chicken Caesar salad, and garlic bread to start. SO MUCH FOOD. This could feed 3-4 people. Then I ordered the pappardelle ragu bolognese and my partner ordered the pork saltimboca. The food is out of this world. I actually liked my partners dish more and wished it could be served with chicken instead of pork. I would be there all of the time if so I just tasted a bite of the vanilla bean cheesecake that we took for to go dessert and omg. Where has this place been?! 10000000/10 recommend. The ambience, the vibe, the service and the food are incredible. I’m so happy that I live 15 min away. This was awesome and I feel like the $180 spent (including 2 cocktails, a beer, + tip in addition to food) was WELL worth it and much better than anything I have had in Seattle. We have enough leftovers for at least 2-3 meals. Thank you Bucatini for such a wonderful, unexpected date night!

This restaurant has been on my saved list for a long time, and I’m really happy I finally got to try it, it definitely lived up to my expectations. The bolognese pasta was delicious, and as you can see from the picture, the portion size was HUGE. I’d also highly recommend saving room for dessert and getting the tiramisu — they source it from Italy, and it’s honestly the best tiramisu I’ve had in WA.
It was surprisingly busy for a weekday afternoon, which says a lot about how popular this place is. Really great experience overall! Also, the cozy vibe is a plus!

Amazing!! It’s our first time visiting the restaurant! Love the atmosphere during dinner time! Service is great!!! Absolutely delicious!! From the starter, bread was amazing on its own! Don’t even need and dipping sauce!! So good! The soup is amazing too! I love it so much! The special pastas my husband and I ordered were delicious! It’s not normal pasta you would anticipate, various ingredients to go with the pasta which is very good! I totally agree with people saying this is the best pasta! And the dessert tiramisu cake was amazing too!! The portions are big and great!!

We were pleasantly delighted by the food and the restaurant and would definitely come back. There is a short wait as the restaurant was packed on a Saturday night but they have outdoor heaters so that was very nice. Parking is limited in the small plaza. The inside of the restaurant is not loud with music and we could enjoy our company.
We got the Caesar salad, bucatini with meatballs, shrimp and calamari, ravioli Marsala and the steak sandwich. Our group loved the Caesar salad and the ravioli was a favorite! The salad had authentic dressing and was perfect. The ravioli was so creamy with the right amount of cheese. We ended up dipping our bread in the ravioli sauce! The steak was a little dry and the calamari appetizer was not everyone’s favorite but they were all good. We can’t wait to come back and try more dishes!

Wow!! Where do I start?! This was my first visit to Bucatini, to pick up a Meatball Grinder to go, and I can already tell you that this is the best Italian restaurant in the Seattle and surrounding area!! Absolutely the best and most gourmet Meatball Grinder I’ve ever had!! From the exquisite bread, to the perfect meatballs, to the phenomenal cheese smother, dear God. The atmosphere is beautiful too and the server that helped me with my order, Favi, both on the phone and when I picked up, was just the nicest person I’ve met in a long time. You’ve earned a loyal customer for life. Thanks so much for making my night 🙂

The moment you go in, the restaurant’s food is delicious
One disadvantage is that the server is one person
It was a bit disappointing. But it is a place where I want to go again with delicious food and good atmosphere.

The atmosphere here is great and the staff are very friendly. However, we were slightly disappointed with the food. The pasta was too soft and overcooked, not al dente at all. The sandwich was decent, we especially liked the texture of the bread. That said, the meatballs were a bit dry and lacked flavor.
Let me know if you’d like it to sound more formal, more casual, or shortened for a platform like Google Maps or Yelp!

I’ve had dinner there twice, once with my wife and again with another couple. Both times we were greeted by the host. Advise to arrive before 6pm on the weekends, as it filled up both times. The waters arrived within a minute and our lovely server soon after. I’ve tried 3 different wines – all delicious!! Their menu is intetesting and varied and they make their own pasta. The portion sizes are generous, plenty for leftovers. The bill was reasonable. Can’t wait to go back, have some wine and try something different.
