Since 1998, la Spiga has been renowned for its authentic, northern Italian cuisine -- a gastronomic tribute to Italy's Emilia-Romagna region.

Enjoy fresh pastas and sauces, tasty seasonal dishes, house-made breads and desserts, Italian wines and craft cocktails.

Our atmosphere is rustically elegant--warm enough for family & cool enough for a date.

Enjoyed the food, the menu is quite simple. Pasta was cooked perfectly, could have had more flavor though. This was also true of the fritto bread service. Service was very good.

We have never had a bad experience at La Spiga. It is where we go to celebrate milestones and birthdays and it never disappoints. Max in particular was lovely yesterday and the food was delicious.

Highly recommended! The menu has a wide variety of options, for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. The appetizers were delicious, excellent specials, a wide variety of cocktails, and wine. Service was excellent. One of the best restaurants in the Seattle area!

Very delicious authentic Italian! They also have a good happy hour menu between 5:00 and 6:00, bringing prices down a few dollars. The boar ragu over gnocchi was outstanding. Gnocchi was light and fluffy. Wonderful night out with friends.
