The noodles had the perfect texture, and although the sauce was just a simple tomato sauce, it was incredibly flavorful, fresh, and comforting. It really proves that you don't need a long list of ingredients to create an amazing dish when everything is made with quality and care. We ordered for pickup, and our food was ready in about 10 minutes, which was a nice bonus. Finding the restaurant was easy--it's tucked inside the Atrium building at Pike Place Market. Just walk south past the famous fish market, and you'll see the Atrium entrance. It's a bit of a hidden gem, but it's definitely worth seeking out. I'd definitely come back just for this pasta!

Okay, holy shit, I had to RUN and write this review after getting spinach pappardelle and pomodoro…read moresauce from Pasteria Lucchese at the Ballard Farmer's Market. I'm an Italian from New York. I lived there for 22 years. When I tell you I haven't had good Italian food since I moved to Washington 5 years ago (yes, I even disliked The Pink Door), I mean it. And when I say this is the BEST pasta and sauce I stumbled across today, I MEAN IT. I feared writing this review would cause the pasta to sell out faster. I went around 12:30 today and most of the pasta was already sold out (I believe they open at 9 am). I guess I'll be waking up earlier to beat everyone there for the rest of my life. YOU MUST GO HERE.

I finally noticed their booth while roaming around the market during a snow day, which resulted in a uncrowded market. Anyways, the man running the booth was so easy to chat with. I ended up purchasing their saffron tagliatelle and beet and goat cheese ravioli since he sold me on how to prepare those pastas. He even gave me his business card and told me to not hesitate to call if I had any further questions while cooking. You can't beat service like that! Later that night, I followed his suggestions on how to prepare those pastas: Saffron tagliatelle with shallots, onions, crab meat and a little cream. Beet and goat cheese ravioli with caramelized onions. We ended up adding a little bit of cream to it. I was blown away with both dishes. Both pastas had the perfect texture and flavors were amazing. The saffron pasta had a nice creamy taste while the ravioli tasted earthy and mildly sweet. Best of all, these were quick to prepare, and there's no need to thaw the pastas either. While it takes 3-4 min to boil the pastas, the total cooking time was under 15 min. Next Sunday I'll be returning to stock up on those pastas for those nights I need a quick meal.

It is in the pricier side, however you can tell this food is great quality and made with love, so I think it's well worth the price. Everything tasted amazing, but I think the star of my meal was the grilled figs with prosciutto and goat cheese. I have not had something like this before and I loved all the medley of flavors and textures. If you're in Seattle, this place is a must.

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.

Taking a break from their incredible Chicory Caesar, we tried their salad with butter beans - the citrus flavor was perfect and went so well with the beans.

The ranch was creamy and leaned into the dill flavor. The pizza dough was a great chewy and crispy texture, and the sweetness of the pear was good with the cheese. Sitting at the bar was really fun and the service was great as usual.
