I am so glad I came here for my one and only dinner in Seattle. Im from Georgia and my friend was from Australia and we adored our food! I had the Spaghetti DAbruzzo (a great option for vegetarians - spaghetti with tomato/mushroom ragu, pecorino romano cheese, and julienne sliced red and yellow peppers) and I still think about it. It was some of the best pasta Ive EVER had (and I have EXTREMELY high standards for pasta). I also had the Tutta Bella Amber Ale which is the house brewed beer and it was so great. Our server was very knowledgeable and steered us the complete right way with what to order. If I ever return to Seattle, Ill definitely eat here again. Every time I think of my time in Seattle, I think back to my tasty meal here! Very memorable!

Weve been here twice, the first time when were were seated we waited for about 25 min for someone to come and greet us, take our order, give us water, anything acknowledge we were there... we finally asked the hostess when a server was going to come they quickly did theyre best to make up for it in the end after our first visit we decided to give it another try. So we went again (two days ago) this time a party of 8 this time they at least greeted us more timely but still took a long time for our order to be placed and arrive. The kids meal arrived before the adults, by the time the kids were done eating our food arrived and the kids were restless, and our three pizzas arrived in stages. Overall the food is good but the service lacks.

Not my first time to a Tutta Bella, but my first visit to the location in Columbia City. As all Tutta Bella experiences go the food and drink was wonderful. The dining room was louder than average and the service was a little touchy, but the visit was still quite good. We always make a point of coming when the Calabrese (fig pizza) is in season. It does not dissapoint, and neither does the Salermo salad. The familiy size is a great deal and big enough for 3-4 people. Easy to find location, bright and airy, outdoor seating available, bar seating available, in walking distance to the Royal Room!

Some of the best pizza in Seattle. I love trying their seasonal pies as well. They are usually very unique and while Ive never been to Naples, its definitely what I imagine pizza over there is like. The Rustica Flatbread is to die for and you cannot leave without trying the Nutella Gelato! Heads up, its a small shop so be prepared to wait if you didnt make reservations, but its usually not too long. Id say my only complaint is the floor is slanted in a lot of places so the tables wobble but thats just a minor issue.

This delightful restaurant, run by the very kind Joe Fugere, deserves all the rave reviews and positive press its received. Fantastic spot for a date, family outing, or to satisfy your hankering for a great pizza. Consistent, affordable, and lively - come one, come all. Live Italian musicians on the weekened makes Tutta Bellas signature beer (brewed by Pyramid), great selection of red wines, or delicious cappucinos that much more fun. Go with the Quattro Formaggi and any of the salads and you are good to go.

If you havent been here, you should go. This is true Neapolitan pizza - crust is partially blackened and super tasty, and toppings are sparse and high-quality. They make great pizza, and you should try many of them. But they also have tiramisu, which is fabulous. This location (there are others around Seattle) is a fun part of Columbia City - its got a family-style seating, but also a bar. For what must be a small place, it feels large and Ive somehow never waited long to eat there.

First timer..asked waitress if it was normal for all the toppings to be burned to the point it was not recognizable what it was..they tried again with uncooked toppings and burned crust on the second one...manager apologized and gave me a third one for the road...their attempts to make it right were very note worthy but I think in the future I will take my buisness to Zeeks pizza.

Best pizza in the state, hands down. Neapolitan certified means everything from where their ingredients were grown to every prep procedure is as was originally intended by those in Naples who invented pizza once upon a time. Owners are very responsible as well, being among the first restaurant chains in Seattle to offer paid sick leave to servers.

One of the best pizza picks in Seattle. Just wish that they delivered! Only complaint is that whenever I visit their Columbia City location, it is too crowded and their live music is just too loud--they need more sound absorbing materials in the building, fewer people and they need to ask the bands to be a little quieter.

Just a dessert review... the gelato was good but the panna cotta was really uninspiring. Often panna cotta is infused with a flavor of some sort, like caramel, but there was no flavor here. Just a barely-sweet cream with a few strawberry slices on top and a sprig of mint. Add some flavor and more berries next time.

We like Tutta Bella quite a bit - their Neapolitan pizza is excellent. Our last couple visits weve had less than perfect service (forgetting drinks and orders) and our lasagna was burnt :( Hopefully they can pull back their attention to detail and make it a 5-star experience again soon!

They make their own croutons. And there are anchovies in the caesar dressing. These two things tell me all I need to know-- Tutta Bella CARES very deeply about their food tasting the best it possibly can! They dont cut corners. The calzone was unreal... cant wait to go back.

Excellent pizza, some of the best Ive ever had. Crust is in between thick and thin. Although it took some time to get to our table it tasted fresh and delicious. Also the Amber Ale is very good. Staff was very friendly and helpful, always had a smile.

My experience has been somewhat mixed. The food is good but sometimes it comes out a little too cooked; like lasagna where the edges are burnt. The wait staff is also fairly mixed, some of them are wonderful but others are forgetful and clumsy.

Best pizza in Seattle. So good, I am willing to take the bus or drive all the way down there because it beats the rest of the Tutta Bella´s places. Don´t forget to finish the meal with a Caffé Cioccolato (latte with a touch of nutella)

Tutta Bella is a Seattle gem. Their pizza is amazing and extremely authentic. Their happy hour is one of my favorites in Seattle. I have been to a couple of their locations but the Columbia City one is the best in my opinion.

I didnt know they closed at 10:00pm and I had got there with my boyfriend at about 10:10, and they still welcomed us in. We loved the food, and the people are really sweet and friendly. I would definitely come back.

Wonderful and authentic neapolitan pizza, pasta, salads, and appetizers. Marvelous Italian wine selection. Superb happy hour options! Kind and knowledgeable staff. And did I mention the Gelato?? Worth every penny.
