What Salumi is known for
Cured-meats shop opened in Seattle's Pioneer Square in 1999 by Armandino Batali, father of chef Mario Batali, after 31 years at Boeing. Now trades at 404 Occidental Ave S following a 2020 relocation nearby.
Armandino Batali opened Salumi in 1999 after retiring from a 31-year career in quality control at Boeing and studying charcuterie. Ownership passed to his daughter Gina Batali and her husband Brian D'Amato in 2007, and in 2017 majority ownership moved to Grant Peak Capital, with Gina Batali and Brian D'Amato retaining a minority stake. Salumi stayed at its original Pioneer Square address through 2020, when the retail counter moved two blocks away to 404 Occidental Ave S. Armandino Batali died in late November 2025 at age 88. As of 2026 reporting, Salumi continues to operate as a deli and sandwich counter in Pioneer Square.
