Mezzanotte Reviews
The best Italian food in Seattle. The focaccia is probably the best bread I’ve ever had. The heirloom tomato and nectarine marinara is a revelation. I can’t wait to go back.

Mezzanotte is a delightful restaurant that offers a unique dining experience. The menu features a variety of dishes, including the popular focaccia, gulf prawn risotto with Thai basil pesto, and nectarine sorbet. The focaccia is described as pillowy and delicious, while the risotto is quite good, with the chili oil complementing the dish well. The sorbet is light and refreshing.
The cocktails are also a highlight, with the "Flowers in the Attic" being a particular favorite. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the overall atmosphere is great, especially when dining on the patio. The restaurant provides good food, great cocktails, and a pleasant atmosphere, making it a recommended destination for those seeking an enjoyable dining experience.
The chef is praised for his culinary skills, with customers particularly enjoying the tuna crudo, grilled octopus, pears with gorgonzola, duck confit salad, risotto, pici pasta, and pasta bolognese. The wine director is also commended for their expertise in pairing the perfect wine with the dishes. The restaurant is described as a "hidden gem" and a "fantastic" dining experience.
Customers have recently enjoyed the restaurant's price-fixed menu for a wedding rehearsal dinner, praising the service and food. The unique interior, with its tin plate walls and exposed brick, and the fun, eccentric bathrooms, add to the restaurant's charm. Diners have also appreciated the Italian-inspired atmosphere and the opportunity to interact with the bartender and watch the kitchen in action during the Nonnakase tasting menu.
