The food and service here was amazing! I wish I caught the name of our waiter but he made sure my family had an amazing time. His suggestions were spot on! I can't wait to visit again. I wish I would have taken pictures but I was too busy eating :)

Food was very good, service attentive but the food comes out unpredictably. There was at least 30 min from the delivery of first person's meal and the last meal in our party. Server sort of warned us and spun it as "food delivered in a way to enhance the dining experience" but it was awkward and uncomfortable. If you are a party of 2 and you want to share a starter, salad and main then your experience will likely be fine. I may pick up to go but probably won't be back for dine in.

Fresh pasta. Good service. I recommend reservations to get a table unless you prefer the bar. Seats are kept for people with reservations. I did not have a reservation so they sat me at the bar. Bolognese, truffle oil and mushrooms... Did I mention the FRESH PASTA!

Love this spot! Hands down the best spot in Seattle to eat tonarelli pasta with truffle oil. The pizza is also delicious. Would recommend!! Check out foodsbysachi on Instagram if you want the full video on my experience!

I was devastated when Best of Hands closed, but then this INCREDIBLE gem opened in its place! Wow. As a big fan of Raccolto and Haymaker, I had high expectations for this place. And they were met in spades. First, the space is so fun and welcoming. They actually keep it warm enough not to keep your jacket on the entire meal like so many Seattle restaurants. It had the right mix of class while also feeling like the cozy neighborhood spot that it is. The service matched the vibe. Warm and welcoming, and our host added to much to the meal by being so enthusiastic and interested in the food and preparation. Totally went and above and beyond throughout the meal, and it made it fun in selecting what to get from the great, great menu. So, the menu! Our biggest complaint is probably that there were TOO many wonderful things we wanted to try, and only two of us, we already had Fomo about everything we weren't ordering. So we already plotted our date back for when we would return. We ended up going with the Caesar, Arancini, Fun Guy pizza, and rigatoni with burrata. Everything was perfect. The rigatoni was the biggest standout with the perfectly cooked, homemade noodles and bright tomato sauce that paired so well with the creamy burrata. The pizza was, I agree with another reviewer, the best wood fired pizza I've had in west Seattle. And I love our other places, but that sourdough crust put jt it into a league of its own. We finished with the Banofee pie that was so delicious and unique. Very light and unlike anything I've had recently. Like many other reviewers, said, I can't wait to go back, and I feel like the value of our neighborhood just skyrocketed happiness place here. Really hoping they do well, because it's clear it's run by really great people.

Went for a date night with my partner: ambiance was great, food was delicious and came quickly, loved the straightforward desserts, and the menu had a ton of vegetarian options! Definitely try the agnolotti - the brown butter sauce with fried sage was classic but top tier. I'd like to compliment our server (don't remember his name but we were sat at table 25 on 2/23); he was upbeat, had a sense of humor, knew the menu well, and was attentive but not ~too~ attentive. Thank you thank you!

Last Friday I decided to try this restaurant. As an older single I don’t often eat out, but I have been craving a pizza and this is close my home.The restaurant was pretty full, so I was seated at the bar.There was a bottle of water in front of my setting, I asked for ice and it was promptly given.The bar seating was full, but the bartender was also the server. He was really good. Made sure everyone was served promptly, kept the water glasses filled and checked often to see if anyone needed anything.Now the foodI ordered the Arancini they were hot and crisp hot and Fun Guy pizza. It was so good. White sauce, mushrooms and fontina cheese. I can’t remember the last time I ate the crust on a pizza, I think next time I will just cut off that and eat it and take the pizza homeI obviously highly recommend this place.
I visited GH Pasta & Pizza with a friend tonight and I was really blown away by the quality of the food and the value and variety of the menu. This might be my new go to spot with friends and for date nights with my husband. Absolutely perfect vibe for the neighborhood. Staff was beyond accommodating, friendly and kind. I can't wait to come back!

We wanted to like this place (nice location, easy parking, fun vibe) but the food was a miss for us. We ordered the rigatoni which had an okay sauce, but noodles were hard and under cooked. The pizza was extremely greasy (visible puddles), a lot of cheese and very little crust. The service was also off. I finished my cocktail (actually really good) before dinner arrived and was never asked for a second one. Our waiter was MIA most of the meal. There are so many other pizza places in West Seattle that have way better pizza; we won't be back.

Lovely dinner with friends at GH Pasta and Pizza. We had excellent/attentive service, the food (shared family style) was very tasty with fresh ingredients. The place has a nice neighborhood vibe and I would definitely recommend dining here. Cheers
Second time here and we love it. What a great addition to the neighborhood. Thank you Brian Clevanger for opening this spot. Can't wait for the summer deck to open. The clams outstanding but I feel you actually need a whole loaf of bread to thoroughly experience it. Just too good! Pastas are great dessert delicate you need to go a few times to try it all. So happy to have a quality food and beverage service in the neighborhood

First time at this new restaurant, we tried almost everything as a family of 5. The pasta was excellent, we had two pizza's that were amazing, good cocktails, and we loved the wine. The soft serve ice cream was great. We made reservations which I would suggest and the space is limited and they turned walk in's away due to wait times. Will try the happy hour next time and sit at the bar.
