Volterra   

I've been a regular customer at Volterra since they opened and they consistently amaze me with their ever changing, seasonal menu. This is true Tuscan cuisine just like you would enjoy in Italy today. I've travelled all over Italy and spent a summer in Florence and recognize good Italian food which seems to be lacking in Seattle. Volterra is the closest thing you will find to real Italian food short of flying to Italy. This is not a spaghetti and meatballs joint so don't expect red sauce and lasagne. One of my favorites is the Wild Boar with Gorgonzola sauce and the Braised Lamb Shank. The service is always warm and friendly and extremely knowledgable. Volterra's prices are extremely modest. Although they use all natural and organic meats and the most expensive entree is $24. Because of their prices, I can afford to eat there every week. They also have an incredible wine list. If you appreciate high quality food & good wine, go to Volterra.

Don't go there! After reading about this place I decided to go. EXPANSIVE! Also, where are the Italians? It seems like another Italian wanna be. The service was marginal to top it off and the food was just mediocre. Sorry guys, not worth the money that i work hard for........
