As far as specialty grocers go, this one is among the best. The second you walk in, the beautiful smell hits you. Its perfect. The meats, cheeses, chocolates all have excellent selections. The oils and sauces are equally of top notch quality. There is a sandwich and pizza counter near the street entrance where some of the most underrated pizza exists. I would eat anything sold in this store and come back for seconds and thirds.
This shop is a place I like to swing by when I am in the Pikes Place Market. Got some fresh bread and fruit and figured I should get some cheese to accompany the next meal. I got the DeLaurenti Butter and La Tur cheese. I have a sweet spot for Washington State produced goods (I live here), and the butter is sooooo delicious! There are some flakes of salt hidden throughout. I think tonight all I need is bread and butter. Cheers!
This is for the caring lady behind the fresh deli counter. She offered the make a fresh cone! Not only that, she was vigilant, pleasant and kind in enforcing Covid safety protocols! There were a couple of customers who walked in without masks and the lady behind the counter who was helping us offered for masks kindly! The way she did/offered it was in a kindly manner and not even a hint/sliver of of exclusion or calling them out! This staff member is THE EPITOME OF SAINTHOOD!!! I did not catch her name [nor I asked] but we’ll definitely be back. Thank you...to her!
Great wine selection and service. This is the only place in town I know of where you can get jamón ibérico which truly is something special. If you are looking for any obscure artisan good, this place is gonna have it. The staff are very willing to help you choose and pair different products together
Beautiful gourmet market, you walk in and immediately want to buy everything. Very friendly service at wine section and what a selection! This is a MUST visit if uoi are at Pike Place Market
One of my favorite places in Seattle! Their cookies, sandwiches and pizza are all amazing. Staff was helpful with recommendations at the cheese and meat counter. Large selection of packaged Italian food.
Apparently someone will be with me shortly. Though the same employee is fine helping the white couple behind me in line, immediately. Will not be returning.
Our family picked out a few food items from the shelves and then went upstairs to pick out some beer/wine from the nearby Washington area. With the help of an employee we picked out 6 bottles none of which our entire family really enjoyed. One was so bad(tasted like vinegar) no one could drink it. The store nicely refunded our money for that one. I guess the best thing to do is do tastings first and don’t go by employee recommendations.
Excellent Italian food store with high quality deli counter service. Ive had several different types of prosciutto, a sopressata and imported provolone. How the meats and cheeses are sliced is very important. Many grocery store deli counters dont understand that. Here they do: their slicing and wrapping is like a work of art. Reminds me of the Italian import store that my grandfather (emigrated as an adult) would take us to back in New England.
It’s like shopping in Italy! Found coffee for my moka, great mustard and lots of wine options. Great spot to prep for an aperitivo night
Fan of truffle hot sauce they sell and check out their cheesesssss 🧀
Remarkable staff, good selections of wines, and amazing services are offered by this wine shop. These guys are really one of the best in the area in terms of wines and service. I really had a great time with these people, and I will surely come back here to shop for more wines. Thank you so much! You guys are the best!
Very nice place to shop for a picnic supplyexceptional selection of Raw milk Cheese and Charcuterie from Europe ! Great French Butter From An meilleur ouvrier de France The Baguette is very good better than down the road at le Panier upstair you will find a great small wine shop where you can find some Gems from Italy, France, Spain and ....more ! Phil gave me excellent advise on Bourgueil and sicilian wine ! both were absolutly excellent ! thanks very much !Thanks to all the staff ! Great knowledge on produce and wine !you can find as well olive oil, sardine and lot of goodies !The only not very friendly personne was the guy behind the cash register
God I love this place. Such a great selection from cheese to sweets and wine to meats you cant go wrong.
Love DeLaurentis. Ive been shopping here for over 30 years. While the staff and packaging have changed over the years the service remains friendly and super knowledgeable while the food is always top of the line.I look forward to shopping here for another 30 plus years.
This place has so many fantastic beautiful things Ive never seen before, and Im a pretty bougee b****! 👌💕✨
WOW I just got the veggie sandwich and that was the best sandwich I’ve had in weeks!!! I don’t recall the name, but it was with roasted eggplant, an olive tapenade, creamy cheese, shallots and parsley on a delicious warm focaccia-style bread. The parsley really shone, and the cheese+bread an incredible texture. The second I bit into it I knew I wanted to turn around and buy another.
Wonderful Italian/Specialty store. Friendly and helpful staff. Great wine selection.
Had grocery delivered for the first time -* block of butter had what seems like a large finger/nail print in it (had to cut it out of the block)* cheese came sliced instead of block (not major but the site asks how you want the product)* when i called to ask about status of my order the attendant had to ask me over and over what i meant by status (pretty benign ask from a customer in my opinion)* delivered all products ordered* extremely PUNCTUAL/delivered ASAP* high quality products - each and every one* packed with lots of ice and except for the butter lots of care* packing material did take up a lot of room in the recycle bin but all but the butter were in tact so i imagine the packing material is neededoverall pretty good!!! cant wait to bake!!
The best wine shop in the city! If youre looking for affordable and lots of good selection of drinks and alcohol, this is the best shop! I was here last week, I had so much time in their cozy atmosphere. They also have snacks and menu as well, such as pizzas, noodles, and sliders. It was such a wonderful time we had here!
I love going to your shop to drink wine! The choices are unbelievable and the owners are awesome. Your staff was also very responsive every time I asked questions. I love this place so much! They carry every bottle you could want, and the staves are so nice. I totally recommend this spot for wine purchases!
Great staff and great selection of anything you could possibly need. Highly recommend any of their amazing chocolates!
This is one of my favorite places to eat in Pike Place Market. There can be a bit of a line but I noticed they might now have online ordering. I love getting a salad or sandwich to eat in and I like the tables upstairs in their wine area. Even when the market is bustling, this feels like such a peaceful and tucked away corner. Make sure you save time to shop in the store-they have beautiful food items from local vendors and from all around the world.
One of the best places in the market! The pizza is 😍😍😍.
We got the Milano & Vinny sandwiches and they were delicious. The chocolate chip cookie was also gooey and tasty. Tables to sit down and eat in pike place which is rare. Super friendly and covid-conscious as it’s window ordering.
Lovely staff great products.
Touristy. Prepared food looked better than it tasted l An interesting place to visit.
The deli counter is unequalled in the area. Lots of unique brands on the shelves. Get some Taralli to go with your espresso.
I understand that some people are terrified of the ‘Rona but that doesn’t excuse them for being rude and unprofessional. Unfortunately for DeLaurenti Food & Wine they have one male employee who made such a bad impression on this customer that this is the result. If someone adjusting their state-mandated mask due to their glasses fogging up sends their employee into a psychotic frenzy then perhaps that employee should consider a different line of work. And DeLaurenti Food & Wine should provide more training to their employees. They’re certainly not being inclusive and sensitive to everyone.
Always have what I want!
Great store in Pike Place Market, amazing food from Europe, great selection of cheeses, charcoterie, wines.Then there is the deli and take out food, just delicious :)
Wonderful international selection of the finest specialty goods.
The required option to give a tip while checking out is very uncomfortable. I would shop here more often if that wasn’t in my face. I worked in a grocery and the idea I would ever receive a 5 to 20 % tip is preposterous. Not good business: I quite hate it, and it should be removed
DeLautenti is more than food & wine. It is exotic foodstuffs from all over the world. From chocolate to pasta. Take out pizza & Italian handmade treats. Fresh. Frozen. Deli delights.Cheeses. Sausages. Dolmas. Pate.
AMAZING quality and selection. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Extensive wine and wild/funky and imported beer selection.
Nice shop in downtown with Italian authentic products. Here I found Mulino Bianco cookies and fette biscottate. Also there is chinotto and peach iced tea San Benedetto. There are also wines and a nice salumi counter with a lot of Italian cheeses. Prices were not crazy compared with the same product price sold in Italy. For Easter I found also a good Colomba and uova di Pasqua.
Great selection of wine and spices.
Amazing selection of Italian pantry goods as well as cheeses and cured meats, many of them actually from Italy, plus snacks and fancy chocolates, and the staff is very friendly!
Same old DeLaurentis. Covid protocol only allows 10 people in at a time but the wait was not too long.
DeLaurenti is so much more than an Italian market. They have a top notch deli and a wide selection of authentic Italian goods. They carry meats from local shops, like Salumi, but for the same price as what you would pay at Salumi. They are friendly and professional as well. Highly recommended!
Great place to buy ingredients for making pastas at home. Really good variety of seasonings and sauces. One of the only places I have been able to find Nongs Khao Man Gai Chicken and Rice Sauce in Washington State.
Amazing cheese selection!!
The best deli store in Seattle, if not in all of Washington. Their cold cuts are of excellent quality, they know how to slice it properly and always the same consistent quality. Best authentic cheeses and a nice variety of Italian and European goodies.
I went to this place a week ago to buy some bottles of wine. I was so fascinated by the huge range of wines that they had. I mean they every bit of everything that you needed. From wines to whiskey and beers. This place is really awesome. You should try to visit this shop and get amazed by their wines.
Great place to find any obscure Mediterranean cheese or meat. Good prices to go along with all the food and a great selection.
This place is a local Seattle gem. The customer service is always top notch and their cheese selection is amazing. You can sample as much as you want. They also have a great selection online for delivery! Highly recommend this place.
Super friendly service, staffers really knew their information. They also have pretty much anything you would need for harder to find parts of italian dishes
I love that this place is a mini farmers market with a artisan cheeses, bread, homemade food and homemade ice cream. Love walking around inside exploring. Top it off with an amazing grilled sandwich and you will be so happy. I had their cheese plus, their classic grilled cheese with Dijon mustard and sliced tomato topped on sourdough bread and I loved it. Definitely share it but the cheese they use is a daily blend of their cheeses they sell. This is my new Saturday morning spot!
Fun sure with good cheese counter. A great place to stock up on picnic items before heading out to Seattle Center park to eat.
I do not get here as often as I would like, but each time I go I am reminded why I love it- great selection, knowledgeable and friendly staff.
Fun shopping great service
Great place to find italian imported products. A little pricey, but that is expected
Great place for specialty goods
We bought wayyyyy too much stuff! 😜
We just keep coming back for more! During lunch our project crews often will grab food and take back to our job sites and it is the perfect filling meal for the work day that is reasonably priced and delicious. They also make a great plant based burrito with avocado which is a great option and much appreciate
Clean and safe with a large inventory of yummy food.
My original review was a one star, due to an incident where I was overcharged and the cashier handled the refund process very poorly.Having now spoken with Matt the owner of the store I am satisfied that this is not usual practice for DeLaurenti, and that they are taking steps to ensure that this doesnt happen again.I have alot of respect for business owners who take time to listen to customer feedback, and act on it, so Ive adjusted the rating to reflect that, and also to reflect that they offer an excellent cheese counter.
The sandwiches are big enough to share and are warmed in a press. After your quick lunch at a shared table, shop for Italian and other specialty groceries that are hard to find. The deli cheeses and meats are expensive, but very high quality.
Only place in the city to get fresh ricotta!
Incredible deli, food shop, and wine store at the entrance to Pike Place. Tip: if youre a cocktail geek like me, this place has one of the best selections of vermouths, cordials, and bitters in the city. (In the wine department upstairs.)
Amazing Italian deli with some of the best pizza and sandwiches We’ve had in Seattle since moving from the east coast. Highly recommended.
I just love this place, like coming home...into a kitchen. ..full of all the details...special items that make my life richer...bolder...more vivid....This is a haven...and place of culinary peace....love it all...came to recharge my chef nature....found it...AGAIN....here....love you guys....come here to spend a bit of time....feel...smell. ...fold in this gourmet foodie mecca....fold and blend into your heart and soul....breathe it into your every fibre and atomic basic element....Dont forget the upstairs area...niche away...hide and grin in this loft...taste and relish...grin some more...hidden treasure
Food was not tasty.
Very professional and knowledgeable staff@
A great place to get some specialty grocery items, and an enormous selection of fancy (and delicious) cheeses, cured meats, and wine. Im sure it can get crazy busy and the parking is expensive or kind of terrible because it is in the market, but its worth it. The service is great and everyone Ive spoken to there is very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly.
Absolutely love this place. The customer service is incredible and so it the food. Would reccomend to anyone!
Great European products. A little pricey but expected based on the location. Was nice to get pasta from Italy.
Historic Italian deli/cafe serving delicious dishes all around with great prices. The cannoli here are the best Ive ever had. They also sell ingredient to their own dishes in the deli section, all at just the right amounts and reasonable prices. Staff are all very courteous and quick to serve at the order counter.
Excellent food, helpful staff, and great overall vibe
Best spot in Seattle to get deli meat and cheese! The only challenge is waiting in line to get someone to help you. But I went recently at the end of January and it was surprisingly slow after the holidays. They have specialty food items that are hard to find elsewhere. Win win.
This is a real delicatessen in Downtown Seattle. This store selling cold cuts, cheeses, and a variety of salads, as well as a selection of unusual or foreign prepared foods, caviar, anchovies, pickles, jam, ect...Cafes in front of the shop and if you want to drink a glass of wine with small bite, you will find the opportunity watch the street.
Had a great experience, food was tasty and a huge variety of cheeses. Several varieties of deli meats and given many samples. Wine area was very extensive and employees very helpful in helping us find the wine were wanted.!!!!
I popped in here for a quick bit when I saw someone walk out with a steaming hot pizza slice while I was waiting for my ride. Got the pizza and the crust was chewy like it had sat in the display for days. Id give it another try and order something else, but the shop was nice and service was kind as well.
So many great selections! Take large bag for all those tasty food and fresh products!
Niche, but nice!
Excellent products, helpful and knowledgeable staff
Just walking in the door, The smells are amazing! get something good to eat here, then rent a u-haul if you moved here, and GET OUT OF Seattle go track and fing your own city stop wreaking mine!!
Wow what a place! So unique and interesting. Definitely recommend.
The best for specialty products
Open during covid, be prepared to wait in line to shop. Still stellar selection!
