Assaggio restaurant in downtown Seattle offers a mixed culinary experience, with reviews ranging from disappointing to exceptional. While some guests found the food mediocre and the service lacking, others raved about the attentive staff and delicious dishes. Prices were moderate, with some feeling that there are better Italian options in the area. However, there were also glowing reviews highlighting the excellent service, authentic Italian meals, and delightful desserts. Overall, the restaurant seems to have a range of experiences, making it a gamble for diners looking for a reliable Italian dining experience.
