| Festive yet elegant and good for a pre-theatre or -concert dinner, Tulio has been one of Seattle's small Italian treasures for almost two decades. Genial chef Walter Pisano was formerly sous chef at the Jean-Louis restaurant in Washington's Watergate hotel. Enter through antique revolving doors into a jewel box dining room with dark wood paneling. To the left is a cozy bar where everyone looks fetching in soft, amber light. Straight ahead is the crowded dining room, which ends in an exhibition kitchen where you might spy entire prosciutti hanging from the ceiling beams (Tulio smokes all its own meats according to European methods). Handmade pastas include tender ravioli with smoked salmon, asparagus and lemon cream; linguine with local clams, preserved lemon, chili flake and garlic breadcrumbs; and tender gnocchi in brown butter and sage. The kitchen also turns out risotto that changes with the seasons, along with soups such as cipollini and grilled radicchio simmered in a heady chicken broth. Main courses showcase roasted and grilled meat, fish or game. Entrées range from branzino with caramelized fennel to a hefty prosciutto-stuffed veal chop. The wine list is filled with Italian gems, and desserts are always worth the splurge. |
