​​Altura | Capitol Hill's Refined Italian Dining Experience 🍝✨​​

Our recent visit to ​​Altura​​ (617 Broadway E, Seattle, WA 98102) offered a taste of Capitol Hill's sophisticated dining scene. Here's our honest review of this tasting menu-only Italian restaurant: 📍 ​​Location & Vibe:​​ Altura, Seattle, WA (Tucked away on Broadway's vibrant strip - easy to find but feels like a hidden gem） 💫 ​​Dining Experience Highlights:​​ 🍽️ ​​The Tasting Menu ($175):​​ • 8-course culinary journey through Italy's regions • Impeccable pacing between courses • Service strikes perfect balance between attentive and unobtrusive 🎨 ​​Plating Aesthetics:​​ • Visually stunning presentations • Thoughtful color combinations and textures • Hand-selected ceramic plates enhance each dish • Instagram-worthy without sacrificing flavor 👅 ​​Flavor Profile:​​ • Fresh, high-quality ingredients • Precise technique in execution • Solid execution but lacked memorable "wow" moments 🍷 ​​Wine Pairing (Current State):​​ • Limited selection (6-7 options on current list) • Fewer pairing choices than expected • Website shows recent updates - hopefully expanding soon！ 💡 ​​Ambiance & Service:​​ • Warm, inviting atmosphere • Relaxed dress code (business casual recommended） • Service professional but not stuffy #SeattleItalianDining #AlturaReview #CapitolHillEats #FineDiningSeattle #TastingMenuAdventure #ItalianCuisine #SeattleRestaurantScene #FoodieFindings #DiningOut #RestaurantWeek
