I would like to point out that the aroma that surrounds the area where this restaurant is located smells amazing. I knew that I wanted to try it eventually, and the time came when I wanted a semi-late dinner! I didn't get the name of the person who was at the cashier, but he was incredibly friendly and helpful. He walked me through the menu and made recommendations to help me narrow down my choice. After ordering, they offer you a cup of water as you wait, and the order was made moderately fast. I wanted something light and easy that wouldn't weigh me down, so I chose the mushroom and white truffle oil pasta. It was delicious, and the truffle flavor was so delightful. read more

Due' Cucina - Roosevelt - Mushroom & White Truffle Oil (Vegetarian) - Italian Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I swung by here to grab some takeout based on the reviews and was not disappointed at all. After picking up food for three people it took me a minute to stabilize myself when I got the bill, but after finding my center again I decided to withhold judgement about whether the food was worth the price until after trying it I picked up lasagna, some spaghetti with meatballs with a meat sauce that was good and the cutest little cups of tiramisu which were rich and yummy. The food was a big with everybody. My dad lives in a nearby assisted living facility and it's hard for him to get out and about much anymore, so it's nice to know that there is a decent Italian food place nearby that I can grab and go from. It was worth the price in the end. Pricey, but well worth it. read more

Wonderful experience! Food is delicious and staff is friendly! Came on a weekend! Plenty of seating! Great ambiance! Enjoyed the mushroom and truffle oil, Pomodora, focaccia, and burrata salad. Noodles were perfect and sauces were flavorful! 10/10 we recommend! We love this spot so much! Cap hill location is also great! read more

We came back twice just to see if the quality was consistent. Amazing Italian owned joint with freshly made pasta! A simple straightforward menu and easy ordering system. The interior also has plenty of windows and seating for casual dining for singles to large families. We were really happy with our service the last two times, even though we were ordering via kiosk the staff greeted us warmly & when we told them it was our first time offered good recommendations. The menu is simple so you can't go wrong. We have tried these and they were great - Pomodoro - White Truffle and Mushroom - Polpette - Chicken Meatballs - Side of Meatballs (beef) All of them were delicious in their own right. Simple flavors and delicious warm quality. My only wish is that there was a roasted vegetable dish-- with cooked veggies with Italian seasonings to add as a side like some roasted veggies would be nice . I'd really like that to add with my pasta. For pickup they had an interactive screen to show the status so if you didn't hear your name being called it also shows when your order completed! read more

A very cool freshly-made pasta place right before your eye in a rather open concept. You can look at how they are making fresh pasta, another side where they cook your pasta to order. We got the Arrabbiata, Mushroom/Truffle and Carbonara past and they were delicious! They were cooked to perfection al dente! Carbonara was a classic and they nailed it. For the Arrabbiata, I know it's supposed to be spicy and I can handle heat, but I didnt find too much flavor complexity within the dish. If you can't handle heat, definitely stay away from this dish. Tiramisu was great! Creamy, sweet somewhat bitter from the chocolate and coffee. The cake was moist too. Great way to finish off the meal! We ordered our dish using the tablet, and when your order is ready you will pick it up from the window. Without saying, you'll have to bus your own table as well. read more

I've had this spot bookmarked for quite some time! My husband and I went for dinner last night. We arrived around 5:20pm. It was somewhat busy but still plenty of tables available. (On a Friday night, you never know!) The vibe is a casual, fast food, dine in restaurant. (NO table service). You order at the counter and pick your plates up when they call your name. The menu is laid out by sauce/meat, then you choose your pasta. I selected the Short Rib Ragu for the sauce, and Casarrecce pasta. The prices are very reasonable. (Short Rib was the most expensive sauce/meat base, at $14.90). Sure, it's a "fast food" type of place, but the quality is good and the atmosphere is still nice. My husband got the same sauce, but he got the Fusilloni pasta. I liked this pasta a lot, it was more al dente than the Casarrecce even though the menu showed them as the same Al dente-ness. Hot tip: get the side of cheese! I kicked myself for not ordering any! The portion was not big. I'd call it the perfect "lunch size" portion. But I guess that should be expected for under $15. I will be back to try other flavor combinations. But it will be a lunch visit! read more

***PORCHETTA SANDWICH IS A MUST TRY*** The sandwich is the perfect combination of herbacious, sweet, sour, and salty. It's served with a salad dressed in olive oil and vinaigrette (I think). Bread was soft to bite yet still crispy on the outside. 10/10 We did a BYO pasta which one of the workers walked us through since it was out first time. They were very attentive. There's a lot of seating (mix of high and low) and was nice and warm. Empty on a Monday afternoon. We got the protein pasta and it had a grainy texture which I didn't love. We added tofu and that was nice, fluffy and crispy. Pomodoro sauce was simple and w spinach. Over a nice balanced, vegetarian friendly dish, just wasn't anything to gush over. read more

Due' Cucina - Roosevelt - BYO pasta and the Rustic Porchetta Sandwich - Italian Near Me - Seattle, Washington

A favorite spot to my friend who takes Italian cuisine seriously, he invited me to join him here one evening. For me you can never really go wrong with Pasta. Due' Cucina I initially thought was a high-end dining restaurant and not to take anything away from them but there are other locations. Their Model is similar to that of a Chipotle where you customize your order - they type of pasta shell you want, even if you choose one of the enticing preset dishes, they have you alter it a bit to your liking. I got the short rib ragu, a favorite of mine at other Italian eateries I've been to. It has a nice tasting Chianti wine and tomato sauce as it's advertised. It's topped with Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. I was a bit taken aback when I asked for more on top and when it came out and was told it would cost like an $3 extra. I ask why and the cook just said that it's 'high-quality' stuff and couldn't just be given freely. My friend and I laughed a little bit, I mean an extra little dusting of cheese is gonna cost me? Stop playing. So overall the pasta was good. A tad high, like many eateries around the city but at least it's decent. I'm sure I'll be back as my Italiano friend is a fan. read more

TLDR; family-friendly (expect to see kids), great bang for buck I loved seeing how family-friendly this establishment is. I saw at least 8 groups with kids during my time there. And, the dishes are affordable. Will this be the best Italian food you've had in your life? Probably not. But, the food was good enough and we were able to order quite a spread for little over $70 after tip. This included: 2 croquettes & eggplant dish as appetizers, 2 pasta dishes, and the porchetta sandwich. We recommend getting pesto sauce on the side to dip the sandwich in (it's not an option - we specially requested it from the staff). Between the aglio & olio and the carbonara, the carbonara is way better. Especially with the burrata add-on. We really enjoyed the eggplant, olive, & veggie cold salad too. The croquette was our favorite - it had a nice crunch and the tomato flavor in the rice really complemented the cheese. We shared one negroni (I was pleasantly surprised that they had alcohol too!) It seemed strong because it was so bitter, but it didn't result in the kick I was expecting. Not a bad thing, tbh. Unless that's your goal - in which case maybe try a different beverage. Lastly, they have 2 gender neutral restrooms which are sizable, and one of them has a diaper changing station inside. Really appreciate the accessibility and family friendliness of this place. The staff also greeted us warmly when we arrived and let us know they were open to any questions we might have. Would absolutely come back another time. :) read more

super yummy!! pasta is SO fresh and you get to choose your shape. was not busy when we went and really hit the spot after walking in the rain mushroom and white truffle oil 10/10 - literally can never go wrong with this pasta. so scrumddidliuptious and the mushrooms were literally perfect. i will forever crave this pasta. arrabbiata 7/10 - has really good flavor but was REALLY spiced esp after eating it for a while. will prob add cream at home. read more

Delicious build your own pasta basically. My ultimate favorite is the mushroom truffle oil one. Soo good if you love mushrooms. I tried the short rib ragu one as well which was also really good but between the two I prefer the mushroom. There's a kiosk with pictures to order from and different pasta textures they have on display to show you what it looks like. The service was pretty quick and seating area there were some tables. About 7 tables in total. I would come back again to try the other sauces and other combinations I can make! read more

This place is one of our go-to's for a quick, guaranteed to be delicious, Italian food! My favorite is the mushroom & white truffle oil and adding the homemade pork sausage. The pasta is fresh and so tasty! Even my picky 7 year old loves it! The kids portions are pretty generous. It's fun for him to pick out his pasta noodles (even though he picks the same one each time!). The place is also a casual and easy-going atmosphere with friendly staff read more

Absolutely. I'm Italian, and grew up with my native Italian mother's and grandmothers cooking. I have to say, for the price point, they do a fabulous job. Fresh, and love the customizable option. This place is actually owned by a first gen Italian who knows what he's doing, not some poser trying to sell 30 dollar plates of pasta like many other Seattle "Italian places." Highly recommend. Capitol Hill Location is also good to pre-game the bars at. read more

I stopped to pick up dinner for myself last night. It was early, about 4pm, so I figured I wouldn't have a long wait and there wouldn't be a lot of diners at the moment so the food would be fresh. I walked in and there was only one other customer who was ordering at a tablet. I asked for my food but the staff member was confused and said it wasn't ready. I looked up and saw the screen that showed my food was ready. Verified the order number and took my food. Salad was salad. Nothing to write home about this salad. It wasn't super exciting. I got the "rice/cheese" appetizer. It was ...rice molded into a roll and deep fried, with cheese in the middle. It wasn't the "stretchy cheese" experience touted on the menu. Also, it was dry and somewhat tasteless. The pasta. I ordered the pork cheek pasta with bucatini pasta. I normally love bucatini pasta because when you cook it in a sauce after boiling them, they usually pick up the sauce like little pasta straws. This did not. The pork cheek was delicious, the pasta was just ok. The sauce is tart and sweet but doesn't meld together with a rich flavor that Italian red sauces are known for. The water in the bucatini made the sauce worse. I had hoped for a really good pasta spot while I work in the area but I'm simply not going to get that from Due Cucina. I may try again based on reviews, just to see if it was a bad day for staff. But what I see in the menu versus what I'm served aren't quite matching up. read more

Food was delicious. I ordered the smoked salmon and I thought the salmon tasted salty. Can't exactly put my finger on it. I loved that they make everything in house with fresh ingredients. Will return when I'm in town again read more

Overall pretty decent place for pasta relative to the low price point compared to most places to get pasta/Italian food in Seattle. Lots of different pasta options and add ons to choose from. Food is prepared pretty quickly as well for those looking for a quick eat. I'd say sometimes the quality of the pasta can be a bit inconsistent though. There's been times where it tastes like parts of my pasta might be a bit undercooked, and sometimes it feels like there isn't enough sauce as well. read more

What a fun place! The GM Ryan was amazing - greeted everyone, said goodbye, was super friendly. The fresh pasta was wonderful. You could see it being made behind the counter and it had the perfect chew. The best things was the cannoli. I haven't had one that good since I was in New York City. It was very authentic and reminded me of our visit to Sicily! read more

Loved this place! Indoor and outdoor seating, very friendly (and helpful) staff. I got a warm welcome and intro to the menu, the same person who helped me made a delicious aperol spritz. The pasta was perfectly cooked, seasoned, and portioned. Not a long wait either! I had enough for leftovers for a fair price. I was blown away by their veg options, you can make anything dairy free and most things vegan. It was so nice to chill at the outdoor tables and enjoy my food. Next time I come I'll definitely grab one of my friends and show the spot off. Can't wait to go back. read more

My co-worker and I stopped in here for lunch based on reviews on Yelp. Yelp did not disappoint. This place is absolutely FABULOUS. They make their own pasta on site and you can definitely tell the difference. It was delicious. There are a lot of options on the menu, and you get to pick what pasta you want in your dish. I had a truffle mushroom pasta dish that was OUT OF THIS WORLD good. I can eat a lot, and I couldn't finish my lunch. The portion sizes are reasonable for the price. They lose a star as they don't have diet soda to order and your lunch doesn't come with a slice of bread, you have to pay extra for it. Pasta should always come with a roll or piece of bread for scooping the last of your pasta/sauce, imo. Seating was plentiful, the restaurant was clean (but chilly so bring a jacket), and parking can be found on the side streets near the restaurant. I would definitely stop by here for lunch again. read more

Due is always a reliable option when my pasta cravings arise. I love that the location is kitty corner from the Roosevelt Link Light Rail, which makes it super convenient for those that roll car-free in the city. Ordering is straight forward: Choose your sauce, pasta, and add-ons. My go to is their Bolognese with bucatini. I love the texture of the bucatini and the Bolognese is so comforting, especially when sprinkled with chili flakes. I normally don't order any add-ons as this is more than enough food to fill me up. I have tried the short rib ragu, mushroom & white truffle oil and smoked salmon options. While those are tasty, it's tough for me to deviate from my usual Bolognese. There's plenty of seating and I appreciate the laid back vibe of Due, as I often dine here solo. read more

Casual Italian spot with homemade pasta. You order and pay at the counter. You can pick your pasta and sauce then they call your babe to pick it up. They serve wine, beer and cocktails.

Service at any Due' Cucina is usually a delight, the same goes here for the one in Roosevelt. Good pasta is hard to get cheap in the city (maybe I'm not looking hard enough) but going here is always a good fix. You can tell the pasta is fresh, the chew of it was perfect. I got the short rib ragu and honestly it was a bit under-salted but luckily they have easy to grab salt packets /red pepper flakes / black pepper near the utensils. The portions are deceivingly large. Every time I come to a Due' Cucina I think that my dish will not be enough but it usually is (I recommend getting a side of burrata and sourdough toast too in case you are a real eater). When I went, I saw multiple people on a date. Since the vibe here is like a classier Mod Pizza but for pasta, for someone in your twenties, this is probably a great place to take someone out (especially if you want to save money). read more

Lasagne had virtually no Bolognese Sauce , nothing crispy , just some sorry saggy pile of (microwaved ?) food .

Finally got around to trying Due. It always seemed to me to be a "fast Pasta" place. Like chipotle but with pasta. I was so wrong. Food was amazing. And I mean amazing. We've eaten pasta at a bunch of local spots, Tavolata, il Nido, San Fermo, list. THIS place, shockingly either goes toe to toe or BEATS the pasta I've had at these "fancier" Italian restaurants. We enjoyed our food so much and it was a really good value for the price. The person who took our order was really nice and explained the menu to us. It was a beautiful day so sitting outside was a really nice vibe. Just hoping the other locations have the same quality cause we'll definitely be trying them. Why 4 stars? Only con was beer options and wine by the glass options were super limited. Really only about a half star off in my opinion. read more

Have walked past this place many times and have always been curious about it. Finally went and had a great meal. The food is decently priced! Our two entrees and two glasses of wine came out to less than $50 which, today is hard to come by I feel like. You order on a tablet, there is someone at a register if you feel like ordering with an actual person. The wait time looked like it would take forever (we ate before the UW football game so it was a little more crowded) but our food came out rather quick! It was funny we almost missed our order bc they call your name with a bit of an Italian accent maybe which added to the charm of the place. Mix of old school Italian sit down and fast food. Made it super convenient and the food was really delicious! read more

Due' Cucina - Roosevelt - Rustic Porchetta Sandwich, Pomodoro with meatballs, Barbera wine, Pinot Grigio - Italian Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I love Due Cucina and often frequent the other locations, but had the chance to stop by here. Most dishes were as I expected but I was not a big fan of the carbonara here, super oily. Every other pasta base was terrific though. Pomodoro with Creste Di Gallo - the type of pasta is very unique as it feels like two pasta types in one. The al dente shifts throughout as the outer ribbon and inner macaroni have different textures, but this is a very engaging attribute. Pomodoro was a rich tomato red sauce, a very safe sauce that pairs well with most pastas. Carbonara with Bucatini, Poached Egg, and Pork Sausage - the bucatini was great, perfect firmness, but the carbonara was overly oily. Much greasier and buttery than expected and much different than what I'm familiar with. Looking at the picture, you can see the dark pool of oil underneath. The bucatini was swimming in the oil and I expected a little oil rather than a pool. Pork sausage was great, poached egg was a bit underwhelming especially at the price point. Duck Ragu with Bucatini and Crunchy Tofu - again, bucatini was great and had the perfect texture. Crunchy tofu has become one of my favorite additions for the texture and crispiness. My first time trying the Duck Ragu at any Due Cucina and I loved it. Rich flavor with good sized pieces of duck that uplift the pasta. read more

I was expecting this chain to be "good Italian food" to the extent that Chipotle is "good Mexican food", but this was better than I expected! The ravioli (4/5 stars) was actually al dente and was delicious, the Burrata (3/5 stars) was good but not particularly noteworthy or impressive. Service (5/5 stars) was fast and servers were kind. The ambiance (5/5 stars) was "fast casual" where you order on a tablet and the food is brought out to you. I was disappointed to see the "good" food safety writing and a little uncomfortable to see they hung the sign so low on the front door - it seemed a little deceitful. read more

Overall this place is reliable and has good pasta. I tend to come after work and it's never super busy so ordering is quick. It's mostly self service and you need to clean up after yourself. However the prices are decent and the place is clean. I've been at least 6 times by now and have ordered most of the pastas that I've been interested in. Will probably update the review once I get to all of them. Overall the texture of the pasta is great. They use fresh pasta so it's definitely chewier than the pasta that you get from stores. I also tend to get the sourdough bread on the side since I like bread. Traditional Bolognese Ragù - My go to order. It's flavorful and is exactly what I want in a pasta. Has a decent amount of meat and isn't too oily. Smoked Salmon - Just okay, I thought it was too salty overall and didn't really stand out compared to their other stuff. Pomodoro - pretty good but not as filling as the others so I only order this when I'm not that hungry Short Ribs Ragu - my second favorite after the ragu. The meat is good and it's not too salty. I've only gotten the side salad once since I wanted to try it but it was not that good. The salad didn't seem very fresh and it didn't really stand out. I've also gotten the Arancini and it's decent but not really my thing. Something just tastes off about it and I can't tell what it is. read more

I've been coming here for a few years. Unfortunately this place has really gone downhill. I always get the pomodoro because I am vegetarian. Seems like they are offering more things (like focaccia sandwiches), which seems to be compromising the quality of what they used to do well (pasta). I asked for the ricotta to be subbed with Parmesan. It came with no cheese. I had to remind them to add the cheese. The pomodoro has no flavor any more. It was so drastically different-tasting I actually asked if they had made a change to the sauce recently and was told yes, they had. I said the pasta sauce basically had zero flavor, I had to add a ton of salt and pepper which I've never had to do before. They said "it's much higher quality sauce actually, much more expensive." It just made me feel not heard as a customer and proof that the more expensive option isn't necessarily better. I literally took two bites and decided to take it home where I could add more sauce. I also counted - there were 4 pieces of spinach in the whole dish. Pretty skimpy. Sadly, I think I'm taking this once-loved spot out of my rotation. read more

This is a really good place to get good pasta quick. Its probably not gonna be a romantic Italian meal unless you take it some place else as the ambiance is all about convenience... its not bad just wouldn't be a place I'd want to have a multi-course meal...but they are timely and efficient and their pasta is really good. We get dishes to go and they are always ready on time. We especially like the mushroom pasta dish. My daughter likes it so much she wants to get a tray of it for her next birthday party. read more

This Italian place is the spot for some quick cheap grab!!! But sometimes it can be a hit or miss. I came here twice already tried two different type of pasta. The mushroom truffle and the duck one. The mushroom truffle one was by far my favorite as for the duck. It is alright but its worth a try. Sometimes the mushroom sauce can be a little too salty and that is not good. My friend order that the second time I went there. It was hella salty haha. Ngl... he didn't finish it so I helped him but even for me. I'm pretty heavy on sodium but that day it was nah... Overall, good place to try it out. They have many type of fresh pasta made and different unique dishes! read more

I don't know how the food is - I couldn't get any. This review is of their ordering system. I tried to order through their website, and I was supposed to get a confirmation email but I never did. It was a take-out order, which evidently goes through GrubHub, but the restaurant doesn't have any access to that, so they couldn't help. I don't have a GrubHub account, so I couldn't inquire there either. They might consider a different way of ordering take-out on their website. read more

I came here a while back, and Due'Cucina is a place I recommend if you are interested in a fast-casual Italian restaurant. The restaurant was laid back and had plenty of seating. It was also my first time here, and the cashier was patient with me throughout the ordering process. I ordered the Bucatini with the Kale Pesto sauce, adding fried tofu and the ghost chili oil. The presentation of the meal turned out nice. Flavor-wise, it was what I expected, and the Bucatini was made to perfection. The ghost chili oil added a slight kick, but I wish it were more spicier. The food was great and I would love to comeback to try the other sauces. read more

Due' Cucina - Roosevelt - (Build your own pasta) - Italian Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I appreciate that there's no upcharge for their gluten free option, and it's pretty decent quality. Seems like with gf pastas, you either get ricey mush or grainy solidified sand and these guys lean more on the grainy side. Sauce is great quality. Portions are okay - honestly, the cost is a little prohibitive for what you get. This is just my experience, but service was quite brash and made me feel like I wasn't meant to be there. I understand how having stressful days in food service can be, though. All of that being said, I think I'd rather buy and cook my own gf pasta/sauce/toppings or try out other places. I appreciate the concept of this place and encourage you to check it out, especially if you don't have many dietary restrictions. read more
