Cheap, fast, amazing pasta. I've been going here since they opened and they never fail to disappoint. Even my Asian relatives who usually don't like Italian cleaned their plates!

Delicious plates, fast service even when crowded, great price and feels comfortable like home. I love the friendly staff and Italian music in the background, sometimes Brazilian. My favorites are amatraciana, and the truffle sauce on their respective recommended noodles. They have great salad and beer on draft too. More...

Love it. Usually get the sauce with pork, is it guanciale? Heavy but hearty, very filling. Panna cotta is divine.

Stumbled on this place while doing some shopping on broadway.  Love the casual atmosphere, friendly employees and excellent pasta.  Great concept, choose your sauce, choose your pasta, and choose your 'add-ins' (slice of bread/toast, extra Parmesan, etc). Fair price.  Looks like they probably make a good Italian espresso to! More...

Ordered via GrubHub/Yelp. Fast handover to delivery. Italian is like life: never perfect, but there are times when it makes you feel like things are gonna work out just fine. Good Italian lets you get just a taste of what the good and easy life is like. You wouldn't want to spend every day in it, but the high is all the more savored.Good pasta, enough garlic for any aspiring vampire hunter. Definitely a win. Whatever they're doing with the sauce is divine. A few bits of fond that didn't make the deglaze slipped through, but that's life, and life doesn't Always give you soft things. Tiramisu was good, but left something to be desired. I still ate everything I could scrape out of the delivery container. Verdict: I'd definitely consider a second round as an in person or delivery date night. :D More...

Went with a friend for dinner and ordered the Kale Pesto pasta and the Bean Ragout as our vegetarian options. I had never had beans with pasta before, but this place somehow made it work really well. The Kale Pesto, however, was definitely our favorite. Can't wait to try the mushroom & white truffle oil pasta next time! More...

We opted for a lazy night in tonight and decided to try this spot on door dash. My husband claims to hate Italian food, but said he'd give it a go. Not only did he think it was AMAZING, he said it was one of the best meals he's ever had in his life. We both had the ragu. I added extra parm and the grilled sourdough. He added the poached egg, ghost pepper oil, and grilled sourdough. Everything was so light and fresh. Not like a thick, heavy, gross Olive Garden meal. So thankful we tried it! More...

Had a lovely lunch here recently! The place is modern, clean, well lit (large windows) with plenty of open seating. Remember to seat yourself & bus your own table. My group tried a variety of the sauces...- traditional bolognese: rich, hearty, filling- cacio & pepe: the cheese flavor was very sharp and strong, delicious but a bit too much for me- amatriciana: lots of tomato flavors + smokey, savory goodness in the form of guanciale (cured pork cheek)- mushroom & white truffle oil: creamy, thick, but not too heavy. Wonder, well balanced flavors between the mushroom and truffle oil (personal favorite out of the 4 sauces)The pastas were all fresh and perfectly al dente (firm, chewy). Personally enjoyed the rigatoni and ca campanelle best. Would recommend and come back again! More...

Friendly staff, in a way. I was told the order line starts near the entrance. I thought i had to order at the food pickup area. Oops.I had eggplant parmesan. Pretty tasty little appetizer dish. My wife had the only pasta dish that was rated high on the al dente-ish. Those noodles were rather undercooked. Felt like i was eating them raw. But i guess thats what it is by definition? I can definitely see the appeal. More...

Listen, pasta can only be so good...but this place does it right! The first time we went here, it was, admittedly, not great, but good (we had the pomodoro & lamb meatballs). But we stopped by again this past Friday night and couldn't stop raving about how perfect our selections were this time around! Not only is the pasta cooked like a dream, but the mushroom & white truffle oil was AMAZING. Also went for the Amatriciana - delicious sauce, but that house-cured pancetta was the real star of the dish (and I'm a person who doesn't really like bacon, but that pancetta, oh. MAN.)Like others have said, if you're looking for a casual joint with some damn fine pasta, Due Cucina Italiana's your place. More...

Fresh pasta with fantastic textureI ordered the amatriciana with fettuccine - not a big fan of the way the pancetta was cooked to a crisp. It kind of became the texture of crouton, and like a crouton, the pork started getting soggy( ) as time passes and it absorbed the sauce. But once I picked all the pancetta out I was left with a yummy bowl of pasta. The ghost pepper oil was an extra 50 cents and really packs in the heat if that's what you're into. More...

I ordered the mushroom and truffle pasta with the pork sausage. I think the pasta was a little too al dente for my liking. But I also prefer noodles a little soggier than most. But I really appreciated seeing the little ridges from the pasta machine. The favor of the pasta was really good. The sauce wasn't too thick or heavy. It had the right amount of cheese and everytime you took a bite with the mushroom- it was bursting with flavor.The real star of the show was the pork sausage they make. It's so flavorful and such a great experience. I had to make every piece last because it was SO good. Overall I like this place for pasta- I like that it does feel healthy in that each dish isn't drowning in butter. You walk out full but not stuffed. If you like the concept of making your own pasta but don't want to put in all the work- I recommend this place. More...

What did I do to deserve to live across from such a beautiful pasta destination? Chef Filippo is cooking up the finest of fast-casual Italian delicacies in an atmosphere where you can feel comfortable wearing sweat pants - if that doesn't sound like heaven on earth to you then we can't be friends. My guy pours his soul into the selection of these ingredients (just watch their instagram videos), and you can tell immediately once you even look at these dishes. As it was my first time at Duè, he patiently walked me through the menu; telling me about his personal favorites as well as the crowd pleasers. I was about to go with one of the most popular dishes, when Chef F directed my hangry gaze towards the special - an ox-tail ragu. I've only had ox-tail in Jamaican food before, so I elected to try something a little different that day. I was awarded for my boldness when this meal quickly came out, it was simply amazing. All of the ingredients taste so fresh, and the pasta itself is cooked perfectly. This place is a diamond in the rough in the middle of a patch of mediocre Mexican restaurants. I had to go and shake Filippos hand afterwards for putting together this great restaurant. I will certainly be a regular moving forward. More...

Definitely try the kale pesto - you can tell the greens are freshly ground. The vegetarian and vegan options are delicious as well, including their fried tofu. Such a new and ingenious idea to use tofu as a protein on pasta. This spot deserves 6 stars. More...

AMBIANCEI'm a huge fan of white tile on white grout walls because it really brightens up the place. The servers are super friendly and nice. Food came out in less than ten minutes. It's cool to see all the pasta being made behind the counter. The place is really clean.FOODWe went with the Mushroom and White Truffle Oil with Pork Sausage and the Traditional Bolognese both with their recommended pastas. You could definitely taste the freshness of the pasta (not that I had any doubt because they literally make it behind the counter). The noodles had a great bounce, while still remaining a perfect al dente.The sauces were great, but honestly just didn't fit my preferred palette. Completely a personal thing. The wine hints in the bolognese were too pronounced for my liking. I prefer a meatier and drier bolognese. It was hard to taste the truffle in the other dish. Then again it's $13, you can't expect much. I would have preferred more cream, but again, it's just personal preference!OVERALLGreat vibe, I love being able to choose different sauces and noodles. I'd come back if I was in the area for a different dish. More...

Q&As

We are famous for our pasta dishes. We make all of our pasta in the store, fresh every day. We also make all of our sauces, appetizers and desserts in-house from scratch. You can pick your sauce, pair it with a pasta shape, add some toppings and voilà, the dish is ready!
We don't have a signature dish but if you come visit Due', make sure to leave some room at the end of the meal to try our tiramisu!

We offer three different catering packages for our customers to choose from. Review our catering packages here: https://www.duecucina.com/catering/

Due' was ideated in 2013 by Filippo and Davide over a lunch break in Sydney, Australia. Two avid pasta lovers, our co-founders shared their frustration for the very few healthy lunch options available. That conversation triggered a journey of research and experimentation that lead, two years after, to develop our all-natural, nutritionally balanced pasta formula. In 2016 we moved to Seattle, attracted by the city's vibrant food scene, to launch our first restaurant.

We serve Italian food in the style that we grew up with in Italy. Our story is a part of our food and that experience is passed on to our customers. Your guests will enjoy the best, most authentic recipes from our families. This is not like every other pasta and pizza delivery. We use high quality ingredients for vibrant and fresh meals like our own families’ kitchens are catering your event. Our team takes tradition and quality seriously for an experience you can’t match with other Italian catering.
