    Fantastic dining at La Spiga. Great wine & cocktails, and the food consistently delivers (and it's our go-to for gluten-free selections that are incredible). Our server, Lily, was super responsive and just perfect.

    The recommended pairings were wonderful. The gnocchi with red sauce was meh. The beef cheeks were great. Dessert was good: bread pudding and panna cotta.

    Decided to try here because of the Yelp reviews and the menu looked great, however our experience was much less than expected. When we arrived we were promptly seated, was very empty at 5:30, but were told they had tables booked and we only had our table for 1.5 hr, said no problem it looks empty so service should be great. Well, service was slow and needed up causing an issue with our time constraint even though not our fault. Next the food, for the price you pay, and the limited patrons in the restaurant I at least would have expected warm to hot food, and certainly pasta that was cooked. With so many restaurants in Seattle, we will unfortunately not be back again, sad to say.

    We had a tight schedule to start off our holidays with an event to go to right after dinner. All the staff was very helpful and friendly and we were able to leave ahead of time and that made our special plans off to a great start. Love this restaurant!
