4.6/5 very good handmade italian pasta restaurant in Pike's Place. I had the pomodoro for $16. The pasta tasted like it was made fresh and the ragu tasted very good and seems like they use high quality ingredients. Highly recommend!

Pasta Casalinga embodies the essence of rustic Italian cuisine, passed down through generations. Their concise menu offers a delightful selection: farm-fresh, ocean-inspired, or garden-infused dishes.From the Ocean ?:We had the pleasure of trying the salmon pasta, and it was a culinary triumph! The combination of Creste di Gallo pasta with perfectly cooked Sockeye Salmon, tangy marinated artichokes, and crispy fried capers creates a symphony of flavors that delights the palate. Each ingredient is thoughtfully selected and expertly prepared, resulting in a dish that truly embodies the essence of ocean-inspired cuisine.From the Graden ?:The spaghetti alla Chithra, dressed in a flavorful combination of garlic and chili oil, offers a taste of the garden in every bite. The simplicity of the dish allows the fresh ingredients to shine, with the garlic adding a bold punch of flavor and the chili oil providing a subtle kick of heat. It’s perfect for those seeking a lighter, yet satisfying, pasta dish. However, there's room for improvement in enhancing the overall flavor profile.Ambiance:Nestled away from the bustling Pike Street markets, Pasta Casalinga exudes a cozy charm. The ambiance is rustic and inviting, providing the perfect backdrop for a memorable meal.Seating:Seating may be limited, so arriving before lunchtime is recommended. We went on a weekday afternoon for brunch so seating wasn’t an issue.You also have the option to take your food and enjoy it at the public seating area in front of the waterfront, offering beautiful views of the Big Wheel, Mount Rainier on a clear day, cruise ships, and feel of the the refreshing sea breeze. There are picnic tables available, making it a perfect spot to relax and savor your meal.Service:The service is efficient and friendly, enhancing the dining experience.Overall Impression:Finding handmade pasta, cooked al dente, is a rare gem, and Pasta Casalinga delivers just that! The noodles are delicately coated in sauce, allowing each bite to shine. ??For those who appreciate fresh, authentic Italian flavors, Pasta Casalinga is a must-visit.

One of those places where you sit down and they give you four things you can order. I think when you go to that type of place you want those dishes to all be micromanaged to near perfection. And they sure do pull that off here.

Beautiful pasta dishes made fresh. I enjoyed just watching the cooks make the different dishes. They have a lot going on. I recommend "from the Farm". Seating was a little limited. Food was delicious.

Charmingly tucked away in Pike Place Market's atrium, you might side-eye the lofty pasta prices for counter-style service, just like I did, until... BAM! You just ate the freshest pasta with height of the season specialized ingredients. You know, like they do in Italy. Have you ever had a walnut pesto with sauteed fiddlehead ferns, leeks, and aleppo pepper flakes? I can't say enough good things about how amazing it was and you get to watch the very cool, friendly crew make everything in the open kitchen. I did pass on the $14 wine pour because that's not right for lunch. That would get me a whole carafe in Italy.Vegetarian options: They always have the pasta with pomodoro sauce along with one rotating seasonal vegetarian dish.

As a Seattle native, this is one of my go to dependably delicious lunch spots. The service from Riley, Gauge, and Walker is always top notch! The menu changes, so I always have something new to look forward to. Highly recommended :)

Because I was visiting the market, I randomly chose an Italian restaurant for dinner. I ordered two portions of pasta. It was delicious. The shrimp had a strong flavor of shrimp oil and was very fresh. The tomato meat sauce noodles were well seasoned. The sour tomatoes were paired with pasta. Mason cheese powder is very delicious. You must try it if you have the chance

Table was dirty when I arrived so I decided not to tip (machine asked for 22%). Ordered two plates of pasta for 19 bucks, took 15th a to arrive and my order was behind two tables that arrived after me. Too salty for my liking, small quantity.
