Trust your bartender and let them take you on an amaro journey. You won’t regret it!

We visited this place and had a really disappointing experience. The main girl there was incredibly rude—she loudly asked me in front of everyone if I even knew how to use the record player while I was just trying to figure out the sound system. On top of that, something seemed off with the payment. She charged our credit card $14 for bubbles and then gave cash instead. It felt sketchy, possibly even fraudulent.

Over priced morsels! Lovely concept but missed the mark. Small menu with limited options. Service was anxious to remove plates, told us to get up to get our own water, no drink menu with prices…strange experience.

Lovely spot in Columbia City. Wide selection of speciality Italian goodies and fresh from the farm veggies. Great place to shop for a hostess or housewarming gift.

It doesn't make sense this place isn't open until 11PM or 12AM, even on the weekends. But it's a real shame. I can't imagine staffing and foot traffic would be an issue for something as unique as this. Please, expand your hours!!!!!!

A delightful gem of a space & drinking hole. Thoughtful & expansive menu without being overdone or pretentious. We had a fantastic bartender and I'm eager for my next visit back.

Hours on their website and Google are incorrect. Closes at 5pm. Was hoping for an Amaro bar, but I guess I don't drink early enough.

A hidden gem in Seattle! With a focus on aperitifs and digestifs, the staff is lovely and knowledgeable. Try a variety of amaro drinks, lovely bites in a sweet atmosphere!

As a lover of aperitifs and bitter flavors, this is my new favorite bar!!! The bartender was welcoming, knowledgeable, and gave us great recommendations. The space is beautifully decorated and has the perfect cozy vibe - a neighborhood cafe feel. Just a lovely place to slow down, relax, and savor some unique flavors!

Jump on the Vespa and come down to Columbia City to enjoy a chilled glass of Amaro.

Walked in this Friday evening with another couple. Waited 15+ minutes at a free table and were completely ignored - multiple staff walked by with no acknowledgement or "be with you shortly". Staff were chatting it up with other guests, but couldn't be bothered to help us. Left and won't be back.

Speak easy with a record player, Italian food and amaro and wine. Expensive, but very good
