Cornelly Queen Anne — Restaurant in Seattle

We've been anxiously waiting for this place to open for some time and we were very excited to try it. We went on a Friday night so we were expecting a wait. We waited for about 30 minutes which was fine. We had a friendly greeting from the hostess and didn't wait long for the waitstaff to take our order. Our waitress was well versed on the dishes. We started with the focaccia and seasonal butter. It was excellent. The seasonal butter was so good I could have eaten the butter as my main course. The next was the gem lettuce salad. Loved the candied walnuts and lettuce but the dressing stole the show. The dressing had a strong garlic taste but it didn't over power the salad and the walnuts provided a nice balance. We then ordered the Spaghetti which was in a red sauce and fontina cream. I was a little hesitant about the fontina cream but it really worked well with the sauce. The Spaghetti was fresh and obviously homemade. Our finale was the not so classic pep pizza. The pizza was a little smaller than expected but it really worked since we were already pretty full from the pasta, bread and all the seasonal butter I inhaled. The honey with the pepperoni was great. The crust was crisp and had the imperfections that I expect with great pizza. Overall it was a great experience and a great addition to the neighborhood. Only downside was it was a little loud but not overbearing.

On a side note they do not offer delivery which I was a little suprised originally but after dining there I realized the special sauce with Cornelly may be the dining experience. I'm not sure if the food would be as enjoyable or translate well with takeout. We have our take out pizza places that we enjoy but it was the other dishes before the pizza that make this place special. There are plenty of other take out pizza places but I wouldn't expect this to be in...

I was excited to try Cornelley but was so disappointed. We tried on a Friday but the quoted wait time was 90 mins, so we went back on Saturday and lined up 15 mins before opening. There were already about 20 people in line. They got everyone seated quickly and we got our order in right away. The restaurant was unbearably loud - music blasting at an absolutely ridiculous volume - you can't hear anyone next to you, etc. They send dishes whenever they are done so everyone has to be ready for chaos and family style dining. Our salad came out quickly but wasn't well done - it was full of grit and hadn't been properly washed or drained, so it was very wet, gritty and the dressing was watered down. Disappointing. We ordered two pizzas and a pasta. The first pizza came out quickly and was just barely cooked with no color on the crust. The pizza delivered to the next table was burnt- they are very inconsistent. About 20 minutes later our second pizza came out (fun guy) a lot more cooked. Both needed more sauce, and the mushrooms could use some salt or oil. The pasta didn't show up until after about an hour. The server asked if we wanted dessert, and we reminded them about the pasta which she had forgotten and had never checked on us. The pasta was tasty - I just wish it had come out while we were still eating. We ended up taking it home with us. In all, very disappointing. The food was like 3-4 out of 5, but the noise/music volume was excruciating, so we won't likely hurry back...

It provided the ideal foundation for the high-quality toppings, which were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Each bite was better than the last, showcasing a clear passion for the craft of pizza making. The service was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience.
