Sassetta

I've tired a variety of dishes from their menu, and my top picks are the whipped ricotta and rigatoni. The rigatoni is creamy with just the right amount of spice--I could easily eat the entire dish! The ricotta is simply perfect; I always request extra bread. I also tried the mushroom pizza a try, and while it was tasty, it doesn't quite top my favorites from the menu.The restaurant is beautiful design and the staff are all friendly and nice. Can't wait to go back again :)

This was pretty good for a hotel restaurant. Ambience was pretty low key, nothing too memorable or special. The service was really great. I appreciated the attentive service at the bar and the great recommendations. Their star dish is the lobster pasta so I got that and thoroughly enjoyed it. Very tasty and a bit unique.Love that they have a happy hour too!

Came here with a friend for dinner on a Thursday evening. The restaurant is located downtown but there is valet offered (complimentary for 2 hours, $20.00 flat fee if you go over that). You'll most likely go over the 2 hours so plan to pay the fee. We did want to be seated near a window but that didn't happen but nevertheless the customer service (servers) were amazing! Our waiter described the drinks/food perfectly and we ordered various options. For appetizers, we ordered the ricotta montata, gnocco fritto, and cozze al vino bianco (mussels). For drinks, we ordered the melone martini and frozen bellini. We enjoyed these appetizers and drinks but I did have issues with my mussels. I kept biting into tiny pearls and I had to send the meal back. They did remake it but the same issue was there and I couldn't risk cracking my teeth. Outside of that issue, the broth was tasty. For the mains, we both ordered the pasta di agnello alla bolognese. The pasta was cooked perfectly but the sauce wasn't savory as I expected it to be. The aged balsamic overpowered the dish and that's really all I could taste. I definitely wouldn't order this dish again, unfortunately. For dessert, we ordered the olive oil lemon cake and créme fraiche panna cotta. The desserts made for a nice ending and I really enjoyed the panna cotta. Overall, the service was excellent but the food fell a little short on a couple of items.

Sassetta has lots of options for Italian food, like pasta, pizza, and salads. All of the pasta was so good! I substituted the pappardelle to the lobster spaghetti and it added a smooth texture that contrasted the crunchiness of the pistachios. The red, tomato based sauce had an earthy, nutty flavor. The bolognese and cacio e pepe were also great options as well. The tiramisu was deconstructed with a chocolate mousse alongside a beautiful chocolate and coffee flower cake. It was smooth and sweet with a slight bitterness to it. The flower was edible too! The interior has a bright and modern feel to it with candle lighting to create a soft mood. The servers were super friendly and great but service was on the slower side so it's more of a leisurely dining place. Shoutout to the server who gave us complementary champagne so we could celebrate a friend's promotion! Parking is street parking only which can be hard in the heart of downtown but thankfully they offer complementary two hour valet

I stopped in here with my friend for half price pizza after visiting the eyeboretum across the street and was pleasantly surprised. When we walked in the hostess, Danielle was beautiful and so pleasant. We were seated right away and our server was Jose. He is an amazing young man who also provided some of the best service I've experienced. Now it's one thing to have great service, but i know you want to know if the food was any good.I'm happy to inform that we started with drinks- my friend had scotch neat and was so pleased with her 16 year old scotch that she ordered a second. She had fun chatting about scotch with Jose. I don't drink much alcohol so i was happy to see they had some fun Mocktails on the drink menu (very last page). I tried the passione because im a big fan of all things passionfruit. I wish this was a bit more passionfruit forward- it was pretty heavy on the ginger. The drink was beautiful and def worth trying out.We shared the salsiccia de pollo pizza with calabrian chili oil. Its a chicken sausage pizza with fontina, mozzarella, roasted peppers, Calabrian honey and onion fritto.it was so good. Definitely get it with the chili oil. I wished we had more room so we could try more things but we'll definitely have to come back! This is apparently a newly rolled out spring menu. Love it.We decided to spring for dessert and shared the tiramisu entremet- it was soooo good! I don't even like coffee so i don't usually live tiramisu things. The entremet itself was very light coffee flavor and so silky and delicious. It was served with a coffee crumble, coffee gelato and a marsala cream. It was heavenly. Would also love to try the creme fraiche panna cotta. It sounds delightful!The ambiance of this place is lovely. I love the big window looking out into downtown. The waiters have interesting aprons with beige outfits. My friend said the aprons remind her of home depot. They are much nicer but i thought it was funny. Loved everything about this place. Several others stopped by our table and they were all delightful.

Food, service, location, and ambiance was excellent. Perfect walking distance from our hotel we were staying at. We will 100% be coming back soon. Service was top notch. Highly recommend. Food was incredible. Top 3 meals of 2024. Remarkable.

We had a wonderful evening at Sassetta. The climate was cold in anticipation of the crown that didn't arrive on this Friday night. Service was impressive and outstanding. The tempura squash blossom was a delight with a bit from the spicy mayo and finished off with a small pickled onion ring. The pollo pizza had a touch of honey that complimented the chicken sausage. The Parpadelle was undercooked yet the ground lamb as impressive which was difficult to make an opinion. Overall, this was a wonderful evening with such attentive and friendly service throughout the evening.

Sad to see some single star reviews for this place because of the food was amazing, and my service was great!I ordered the mussels as an appetizer and the Bolognese as my entrée. They were both delicious and came out quickly. My server and the hostess staff were also very accommodating and the pleasure of my meal. I was supposed to be a party of two, but after my friend canceled, I told them I didn't want to be a bother and sit at the bar. However, the hostesses were so sweet and gave me a table anyway with a view. My only complaint would be that the place was a little pricey. Being from Nashville, I don't mind spending money, but a three figure meal seemed quite a lot when I only had two drinks.

Used to come here all the time before they moved, back when they were in the design district. It was a nice big open space with outdoor seating even before the pandemic. Loved all the pastas and their chocolate budino. It had an upscale yet chill vibe, and it was one of my favorite places in the design district. I miss it!

I got the DUCK AGNOLOTTI and it was amazing! The tiramisu was touted as the best they've ever had. The short ribs got amazing review as well. Service was great. Highly recommend if you need a nice dinner out.
