Was lucky enough to have chef Shiro himself. Every bite was exquisite! It's an experience and excellent meal.

Grappa Seattle offers a fantastic Italian dining experience, and my recent visit was nothing short of exceptional. The highlight of my meal was the seafood risotto, which was perfectly creamy, rich in flavor, and packed with fresh seafood. Each bite had a wonderful balance of tender rice, briny sweetness from the seafood, and just the right amount of seasoning. It truly transported me to the coast of Italy. Beyond the risotto, their Italian-inspired dishes are equally impressive. From the beautifully plated appetizers to the carefully crafted pastas, everything exudes authenticity and attention to detail. I also appreciated their mocktail selection, which offered a refreshing variety beyond the usual overly sweet sodas. It was a great touch that added to the overall experience. My only critique would be the portion sizes, which felt a bit on the smaller side. While the quality was top-notch, I wouldn’t have minded a slightly more generous serving. That said, Grappa’s warm ambiance, attentive service, and outstanding flavors make it a must-visit for Italian food lovers in Seattle. I’ll definitely be returning!

I had family here from California, and we arranged to meet at this restaurant, which I had been to once previously. I remembered that it was good, and also that it was near Seattle Center, and I had a hunch these two would want to poke around over there once our meal was done, so it was a perfect location. The service was warm and friendly, but never intrusive, and the food was divine. I ordered the "sweet stuff" French toast with caramel and strawberries; nobody else makes it like this, and it was mouthwatering! I also ordered (to go) some "soft scramble" eggs with asparagus and Dungeness crab. It's so hard to get real, fresh crab anymore, what with the overfishing, but my eggs had actual leg segments of crab in them, a perfect ratio of filling to egg. The eggs came with their amazing potatoes, and my husband and I had that dish, along with a small amount of leftovers from my French Toast, for dinner that night. This may be my favorite Seattle restaurant right now! The cherry on the sundae, so to speak, was that when we were finished, we sat and chatted and nobody seemed anxious to kick us out of our booth. Oh hell yes.
