Description

Bizzarro has been a Seattle favorite since it opened in 1986 by original owner, chef and visual artist David Nast. He converted the building which was originally an auto workshop into his dream restaurant on a shoestring budget with a lot of hardwork, ingenuity, artistic inspiration and love. The eighties Moreand early nineties saw line-ups down the street as people clamored for tables in this unique and quirky pasta house with ever changing inspired decor. David’s original waitress Kathleen who waited tables at Bizzarro for fifteen years became a local legend as she sang improvised operatic riffs to, for and about the customers and the food.

I highly recommend you go at least once [then you can't help a second ... third ...]. Read full review
  • Rating: 5.0 out of 5"by Terrell E. at Yelp User Review1/21/2013This place gets a 5-Star rating because of its ratio of Quality (lots) to Pretentiousness (none). A special place that doesn't require a special occasion to patron. Went there the first time because a friend saw Bizarro on "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives". The owner works as a waiter/host/wine expert ("Sommelier" to … Read full review
  • Rating: 5.0 out of 5"by Andrew C. at Yelp User Review1/19/2013Let's get this out of the way: the food was fantastic. Exciting and tasty. That said, it's the ambience and setting are what make Bizzarro stand out: I felt like I was having dinner inside David Lynch's brain - in a good way. Everything in here was just the right amount of wacky and tongue in cheek, even the … Read full review
