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

Great service, drinks and oysters!!!! The steak with frites was not so great. It was a 24 hour Sous Vide which is usually a great way to make a steak tender. However, this steak was the toughest, chewiest steak I've had in a long time. I couldn't finish it, not because I was full, but it just wasn't satisfying, especially for that price point. Maybe if you order that, double check with the host, for a verification of "tenderness." Other than that tough , I love this place!

Waiter was polite and attentive. Service was prompt. Tabletop devices/ordering was a bit confusing (When to use it? Not use it?). Food was great/delicious.
