Artusi is an Italian restaurant in Seattle, in the U.S. state of Washington. [1] [2] [3] It opened in 2011.
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]
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]
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]
