Salumi is a salumeria and restaurant in the Pioneer Square neighborhood of downtown Seattle, Washington.

Salumi was founded by Armandino Batali, the father of the famous New York chef Mario Batali, as a retirement diversion and is now run as a family business with his wife, daughter, and son-in-law helping out. Tuesdays during the winter, Armandino's mother can be seen in the front window making gnocchi for the special-of-the-day.

In the episode "Pacific Northwest" of the show Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations on the Travel Channel, chef and host Anthony Bourdain visited and dined in Salumi. In the segment, Bourdain participated in the process of curing meat and showed Armandino's mother making gnocchi in the front window. The show also mentioned and displayed the frequent long line in this restaurant.
