Il Terrazzo Carmine, owned and operated by Carmine Smeraldo, is one of Seattle's true dining anomalies - a highly successful restaurant with unfailingly high standards and a loyal, sophisticated clientele. The cuisine has been acclaimed as Seattle's best by the media and more importantly, by local diners. Il Terrazzo Carmine is located in historic Pioneer Square - nestled in an urban-renewed alley with entrances through the vintage lobby on First Avenue or through the delightful courtyard in the back. Since 1984, Carmine Smeraldo's classic Italian restaurant has been where the locals have chosen to return over and over again. From the Carpaccio Di Bue and Spaghettini Dell 'Ortolano for lunch to the Suprema Di Pollo Farcita and Zuppa Di Pesce for dinner you will know you have gone to a place where excellence is a way of life. Arguably the best Italian restaurant in Seattle, Il Terrazzo serves classical Italian cuisine with an atmosphere you may want to call home and never leave

First time eating here with a friend. We both ordered the chicken pot pie at $ 24. Portion was large for a lunch, but we at it all. Good amount of white and dark meat chicken in traditional sauce, topped and baked with a round of puff pastry. Quiet, reminded me of an older time diner, but larger. Affable service, tasty food, and large portions added up to a successful lunch. There were also salads and sandwiches, but we chose a hot item. At $24, I feel that is a bit steep despite it being tasty. At $18, we’d have declared it a newly-found meeting place for lunch.
