Best Fresh Pasta…read more This review is based on the products-- we've been going to the farmer's market and always find ourselves visiting the La Pasta stand every time. The ladies at the stand are always very friendly and helpful in their suggestions (such as which type of sauce to pair with the pasta, or the flavor of the pasta or ravioli filling). Thus far, we've gotten the egg bucatini, the red pepper bucatini, the seasonal gnocchi, and the dreamy garlic spread. Generally, I'm not a big fan of fresh pasta, because many times, I feel it gets too mushy (or perhaps it is the quality of the pasta). La Pasta fresh pasta has never been mushy; it has that imperative al dente bite-- a clear sign of good quality pasta. The gnocchi is flavorful and pairs well with the dreamy garlic spread. Looking forward to trying the pumpkin ravioli later in the week. The price is comparable to the fresh pasta you would find at a specialty store, like Whole Foods, Metropolitan Market, or PCC Markets-- however, La Pasta's quality is far superior. La Pasta products are worth the price. We look forward to trying any new products, as well as upcoming seasonals. We also hope that they may have a brick and mortar store in the future on the Eastside for the farmer's market offseason.

I had visited the Saar's Super Saver Foods across the sound in Bremerton. I was amazed at the vast…read moreselection and competitive prices. I recalled being excited for the prospect of a site opening in Oak Tree/North Seattle, replacing the sketchy and shuttered HT Mart, back in November 2024 after a text thread with a district manager. This site opened in early December 2024, but I finally stopped by on 4/7/25. This will most likely be part of my shopping rotation. The best description for SSSF is that its an amalgam of various ethnic indie grocers as a convenient international destination for your shopping needs. The produce, meat, seafood, and baked goods are fresh. The displays and shelves are well stocked, organized, and provide variety. Decent hours of operation and pleasant checkout staff. Ample parking lot shared with other businesses and the AMC movie multiplex. Easy access via Metro bus on the Rapid Ride E along Aurora Ave N.

Now the Cons I've been here multiple times but I know I have to check the expiration date of most of these items. Plus some of these prices are a lot higher on some items I've seen in other stores. I went to the store just recently and told the manager most of his pancake mix is expired from September and August. He acted like he was going to look but literally went there later and it was still on the shelf. Just be careful and check the dates.

The vibe is cozy, casual, and charming -- like having a meal at your friends' who happen to love hosting. I got the Pickle Platter, a 6oz filet, a glass of Pinot Noir, and a side of potatoes.

The potatoes were super satisfying. Everything paired so nicely. I was concerned I didn't order enough, but surely ended up very satisfied and very full. Brandy provided great service.

Their table had a steady crowd around it all day long eager to try slices of their artisanal handcrafted cured meats. With their line up of flavors with names like The Seattle Stick, Orange & Coriander, Porcini & Sage, Tuscan Salami, Genoa Salami, Saucission Sec, Sopressa, Chorizo, Pepperoni, Salami Picante, and Urutan it was hard to choose. So folks kept coming back to try more. I'm not a big fan of cured meats, but you know I left their table with a good $100 less than I arrived with. And wishes I had more $ with me. I gotta say I LOVE what they're doing here. Everybody I've shared their meats with raves about them. I just saw on their Facebook page that they have some limited-quantity stuff like Gin Salami -- and not only a Gin Salami but a "boost trio" -- a package of Whiskey Salami, Gin Salami, and Ouzo Salami. Like how the hell am I supposed to NOT get that?! Seriously, Salt Blade meats will make among the most excellent of gifts and super special noms for yourself.
