Fast casual fresh pasta. Family friendly and great options for meat and veg eaters. Tried the white truffle and aglio & oglio pasta and the eggplant salad. Would get the aglio &oglio again but the truffle pasta was too rich. Ok for sharing but I'd rather try one of the tomato based sauces next time. The eggplant salad was not super flavorful so would skip. The arancini seemed to be a hit at our table as was the tiramisu. Large pours of wine. Fast, friendly and efficient service.Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly pasta options but also fast service means hungry tummies can get fed quickly.
Food was excellent. And quick. My order was to go because the restaurant was packed. I had bread, salad, and dessert with the mushroom sauce with spaghetti noodles. Wish they gave 2 pieces of bread. ( It's one, that's rather small. ) Dessert was tiramisu, absolutely delicious. Pasta ? was very good , nice portions. 30$ plus tip. A little steep for 1, take out..but it is the University District.

The pasta bowl looked and tasted amazing. The lasagna looked less than stellar. It had a super crispy crust that looked over baked and while the non rockhard end tasted good it wsnt plated very well and looked like bad frozen food.
Got the Cacio e Pepe which is admittedly simple and it was creamy and delicious as expected. Staff was nice, prices were good for what you get, and pasta was fresh and delicious. Definitely worth a visit if you’re on the fence, but don’t expect fine dining. It’s simply a counter service causal spot with tasty, freshly made pasta. It’s on the corner of a busy intersection so if you’re concerned about parking, just park near the Guitar Center/Whole Foods parking lot that’s a half a block south.

Don't let the counter service and reasonable pricing fool you; the plates are very impressive. Well balanced sauce and pasta made on site. I enjoyed my smoked salmon on campanelle.If I'd fix one thing: knock off the iPad tip bully. Pay a living wage, build it into your prices, then proudly brag about it on the screen where you refuse tips. Be part of the solution.

I love Due Cucina, gotta say. The flavors are great, the textures varied, the service fast and friendly. There is a small dining area so don't expect to dine-in during a busy lunch! :)

I am a huge fan of Due. The food is perfectly authentic, everyone is welcoming, and the owners are Italian! What could be better than that!

Very disappointed in the lasagna I ordered yesterday. Little to no flavor, very small portion and it was very very greasy.
