I wenrt to Piatti last night and was offered therir economic stimulus menu. What? Turns out they are doing theri part to offset gas prices by offering a killer four course dinner for only 25 dollah. After some sort of yummy veggie lasagna type appetizer, a caesar, seared sole in brown butter and gelato I was fat and happy. I'll be back next week to try some other choiceson that menu!

The gnocchi is amazing! The pesto/marinara combo is absolute perfection and I love their bellinis. It's great for couples and families. It's also very affordable. I definitly recommend it.

Pros: Ambience, service

Cons: Its always crowded, but it's only because it is wonderful.

A perfect place to go on a date. For a young couple on a budget Piatti is the best place in the city to go.

Pros: Inexpensive, Romantic, Delicious

Cons: Parking

My boyfriend took me out on a impromptu date to Piatti, and since I had checked citysearch minutes beforehand and only saw one $, I figured it was cheap and not to expect much. I was blown away... Ordered calamari, northwest berry salad, and a mushroom/ravioli dish for both, and all were delicious, unique, and very much worth it. Food came in great time, the waiter came exactly when we needed him, and the bill came to $52 - not bad. I would come here every week if I could!

Pros: Perfect Service, Delish Food, Affordable prices

This is our favorite Italian spot around Seattle - I see this other review & wonder if they went to the same restaurant? The food is by no means bland, it's awesome & great flavors! True Italian flavor, something which Seattle Italian restaurants lack. It's romantic & casual, love the fireplace area, the bar is sweet.. you must go. Who cares if it's in the U-Village.. it's on the outskirts & you'd never know it once inside. I know my Italian, and this is as one of the best.

Pros: romantic, well-priced, Great menu selection

If you want to go to a great looking place with excellent service, then try Piatti's! The food is a bit expensive for the small portions but the presentation looks nice. The taste is not the best because I found the food quite bland (I've tried many of their entrees before because of going in large groups). The service is great, very attentive and friendly!! I recommend making reservations but there is an 18% gratuity for parties of 9 or more. It is a nice first-date restaurant :)

I ordered the Gnocci with Creamy Pesto, garnished with Marinara and Pine Nuts. I was a little hesitant at paying $11.95 for Gnocci, but they were truly fabulous (and this means quite a bit coming from somebody with Italian heritage!) The pesto was a lovely compliment to these soft and tender, perfectly cooked Gnocci. Also, the server was wonderful. He doted just enough to make the experience pleasant, anticipating our needs at right time.

Pros: tasty, proportioned, good service

We unexpectantly found Piatti and what a blessing! The gnocci and ravioli are amazing. I haven't been there during the evening but their wine bar looks appealing. Plus, the decor is adorable!

Pros: good parking

We LOVE Italian food, and have our favorite places but decided to try Piatti after doing some shopping at the U Village. They have a bar that was very inviting, and was playing the Mariner game without giving the rowdy ambience of a sports bar. It was still very mellow and non-obtrusive to the restaurant seating area, which was adjacent to the bar. My husband had the alfredo pizza, and I had the spinach/chicken salad. I ordered a small, which was still very sizeable. Both tasted great! We will definitely go back! I also ordered a drink from their summer drink menu. It was really good, and pretty strong with rum which is unusual. It had about as much rum as I would have added if I had made the drink at home. That says a lot -- no skimping here!

Pros: versatile menu, parking
