Tulio Reviews List

Tulio

Step through the antique revolving doors of Tulio Ristorante and it's as if you've entered a bustling Italian trattoria in the heart of downtown Seattle. Chef Walter Pisano clearly puts his heart into this longstanding favorite, continuing to impress diners and critics alike. His boldly flavored dishes are both simple and sophisticated, combining rustic Italian preparations with fresh Pacific Northwest ingredients. Add to this our great location in downtown Seattle, our warm, intimate atmosphere and outstanding service and it's easy to understand why Tulio is widely regarded as one of the city's best restaurants.

"Great old neighborhood Italian. Great feel to the space. Menu was not extensive but everything was perfectly prepared and generous in portion. Staff was knowledgeable and accommodating. One of our party asked for a half serving of the squash ravioli and the Arugula salad and there was not a moments hesitation...and the price for the pasta entry was halved.
Looking forward to a return visit to Seattle"

"It was fine.. the interior is lovely. Its attached to a hotel so expect kids in the restaurant, which is fine, unless you're trying to have romantic evening and the baby in the high chair wont stop screaming.
The food was ok...my halibut was fresh but the outside was pan fried so hard that it was inedible and there was no sauce with it so it was, shall I say, bland? Same goes for the linguine and clams and the risotto with fresh peas.. we all found our meals passable, but uninteresting.
The server took over 10 minutes getting to our table , He was very knowledgeable once he arrived and suggested a lovely wine. Final assessment: It was a bit too noisy and casual for the $300+ that our meal cost.

"My husband and I have made Tulio one of our places to eat for years. If I wanted to try something new, this is where I would take the risk. I knew it would be cooked amazing! I can't say that this is the case for breakfast. I ordered eggs over medium, rosemary potatoes and bacon. Easy enough? The eggs and bacon were severely over cooked, the bacon to the point of Baco Bit quality. We love our nights spent here, but the Mother's Day Brunch was a fail. It's breakfast, and not the end of our dining experiences with Tulio, but a disappointment for a $14 egg plate."

"We had the focaccia with truffle oil, pappardelle, and fish of the day- Alaskan halibut. Our meals were well seasoned and the fish was perfectly cooked. The service was very attentive despite it being a busy night. They had a nice wine list and made my husband a lovely gin martini. At the end of our meal we asked for two espressos with an orange twist, and they were happy to oblige. The only cons would be that it was slightly noisy and the seating was a bit cramped. Still, a great dining experience."

"We love Tulio's. My firends and I don't go to Seattle often but try to make the 5th Ave. thearer at least twice a year. We always book Tulio's. We've never been dissapointed in the food or service. We especially like the location and "valet parking"! Keep up the good work. Thanks, again"

"My mom and I had tickets to see Jersey Boys at the 5th Ave Theater and wanted to grab dinner before the show. Our servers asked us upon arrival if we had tickets and made sure that we were out in time to comfortably make it to our seats! They were fantastic, kind, and funny.
The food was great, but I had better luck ordering than my mom did. I had the chicken (by our server's recommendation. He said "It's the best chicken downtown") and it was delicious! Served on lemon risotto, it was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. My mom ordered the ribeye and was a bit disappointed, saying the bleu cheese crumble overwhelmed the flavor of the meat, which is tough for a ribeye!
All in all, wonderful experience! We'll be back :)

"The food was very good. I had the duck breast and confit with the micro-greens. Very nice. The fava beans were not great, but did not ruin the dish. The atmosphere was LOUD. I was trying to hold a conversation with a dear friend I had not seen in nearly a year. We could not hear each other due to the tables being placed so close together. We had a small table for two placed between to large tables for 4 to 6. The staff was wonderful and attentive."

"Went to Tulio's with my girlfriend and found it to be a great restaurant. There was a great atmosphere in it, with a nice buzz of people chatting and enjoying themselves. The lighting gave the meal a romantic ambiance which was very enjoyable.
The main's were delicious, with portions being the right size. I had the Orecchiette which I fell in love with it was sooooo tasty. Michelle really liked her Smoked Salmon Ravioli.
The service was good, a but slow for getting drinks but it didn't distract from the meal. Our waiter was very friendly, and when they ran out of the dessert my girlfriend ordered he offered different alternatives and was able to get to get dessert similar to the original order."

"We were at Tulio for an early dinner before an 8pm show. We had reservations and were seated immediately upstairs, which is a little quieter than downstairs. Very nice upstairs. Our waiter was prompt and attentive; food was absolutely delicious. The appetizers arrived promptly, but the one negative was how very long we waited for the entrees. In fact, we were worried about getting to the show on time. But the food was so good, we'd definitely go again and give them another chance to redeem themselves on timeliness."

"We were seated at a table towards the back near the kitchen which was fine except the lighting was very bad. This was for dinner at 5:30 so it was still very light outside but we could barely read the menu. The couple next to us used a little pocket flashlight. We sat at the same table for breakfast the next day and could see just fine. Dimming the lights in that area for ambiance is not such a good idea."

"Food was excellent and serving was friendly and fun. The one big issue was the noise level. It was so loud and the tables are so close together that everyone in the place is shouting at each other. That's fine in an inexpensive restaurant but Tulio is not inexpensive. Your "noise" parameter does not allow the user to indicate a disturbing noise level that reduced the enjoyment of the diner. I suggest you add another choice for Noise because that doesn't impact the dining experience."

"Three stars for service only because of the waiter. Rest of the staff, host & servers were excellent. A friend was there the night before and had a great waiter, luck of the draw. Suspect more great ones than mediocre. Definitely will go again if in Seattle."

"We had made an early dinner reservation to precede a theatre commitment. Sadly, we were a bit tardy due to traffic bogs getting into the city, but the Tulio staff accomodated us graciously and worked very hard to get us out and on our way ON TIME!! Thank you, so much!"

"Service seemed a little slow. Some nearby patrons who came in later than us were served earlier. Even though we arrived 15 minutes early for our reservation (5:45 pm), we barely made it to the theater in time for the performance (7:30 pm)."

"My parents and I dined at Tulio prior to going to see Jersey Boys at the 5th. Being from New Jersey my folks were thrilled to find that the Chef is as well. The enjoyment of that shared information was just the beginning of a wonder evening. James, our waiter, caught the vibe of our table perfectly which resulted in wonderful conversation and service. The food was prepared beautifully and tasted even better. If you're looking for a little taste of a warm NY or NJ style Italian this is the place."

"This is a wonderfully intimate spot if you're lucky enough to be seated in a booth. The center of the restaurant can feel somewhat crowded. The food was wonderful (we had the lamb, chicken, gnocci and 2 desserts)."

"We went for my wife's birthday. We'd read very good things, but our Tulio experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment we stepped up to the host's stand, every staff member in the place was great. Our server understood our dining "plan" and made excellent recommendations for appetizers through dessert. We could not have had a better experience. We whole-heartedly recommend Tulio's! Enjoy!"

"My boyfriend is a very picky eater and he absolutely loves this place! We both had a salad, both wonderfully presented and flavorful. I had the lamb sirloin which was cooked as requested and wonderful. My boyfriend had the papadelle pasta with beef sauce. It was wonderful as well. We will definitely be back!"

"Having been at Tulio's several times it has become my wife's favorite place in downtown. They easily and efficiently acocmdoated 7 of us for her birthday dinner, and had us to tthe 5th Ave Theater in time for an 8PM showing. It was a wonderful evening. Great food, easy location and very attentive staff take great care. Love the place."
