“During my first visit to the US, Olive Garden in Seattle marked my inaugural restaurant experience, and it surpassed all expectations! The inviting ambiance, coupled with the warm hospitality of the staff, made me feel right at home.From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with genuine smiles and attentive service. What's more, the complimentary salad was a delightful surprise, setting the tone for an exceptional dining experience.The food was nothing short of spectacular, with each dish bursting with flavor and freshness. From the savory main course to the delectable dessert, every bite was a culinary delight.Overall, my experience at Olive Garden was nothing short of amazing. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a memorable dining experience. Kudos to the entire team for their outstanding service and delicious food.“
“I was in Renton for the week for work. I had a delicious Lemoncello drink in the bar. My coworkers joined me shortly after, and we grabbed a big table for dinner. We ordered the Sicilian Garlic Cheese Bread appetizer, Lobster and Crab Ravioli, and Spaghetti with Meat Sauce. We all loved our food, and even had leftovers. The Spumoni ice cream for dessert was my favorite. The atmosphere was great, and our server was super nice.“
“My husband and I had a small local wedding, and chose to spend our wedding night dinner here at Spinasse and we couldn’t have been more pleased. We did the MenuDegustazione and were absolutely blown away at the amazing taste and presentation of every portion. In addition to the phenomenal food options, our waiter Aidan was an absolute pleasure and made our wedding night dinner absolute perfection. Another thanks to all the wonderful staff and executive chef that cooked each meal to perfection. We will definitely be returning.“
“What can I say - the best. Food is simply fresh, quality, and amazing. Pizza done correctly. The meatballs!!! Will return many times. There must be an Italian behind this restaurant.Vegetarian options: Many options for those who do not eat meats. Check this place out!Kid-friendliness: Kids were very welcome when we were there.“
“Atmosphere was upscale yet quirky. We were too late for the trapeze artists, but given the size of our group I don’t think we would have been able to see them. I think they’re only in the front room and all those tables seemed to seat 2-4 people. Definitely ask if you’ll see the trapeze artists if you make a reservation if that’s the reason you’re going.My friend got the lasagna and I had food-envy. I got the meatballs and they were fine, but that lasagna was amazing.Our reservation was at 9:30 so we were very hungry. My friend asked for bread when we sat and the waitress very rudely (I thought) informed us that we could not have bread until we ordered.Otherwise the night was pleasant.“
“?️ Reservation Tip: Book in Advance! This charming restaurant is in high demand. Despite the rainy weather, the indoor seating area exudes charm and coziness, while the open terrace promises a beautiful dining experience when the weather permits. The staff ensures a memorable dining experience with their attentive service. ? Starters: The 4-piece Melanzana is a must-try! Grilled eggplant topped with fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil. A surprising delight even for non-eggplant enthusiasts. Slightly salty, but incredibly delicious. ? Mains: The Risotto ai Marsala delivers an authentic and flavorful taste, with generous portions perfect for leftovers. The Pollo Marsala, a Sicilian favourite as it states on the menu so of course I had to get it! Comes with spaghetti noodles with chicken breast in a Marsala wine and mushroom sauce. While enjoyable, I'm eager to explore other menu options next time. ? Desserts: Indulge in the flourless cake for a decadent treat. While the tiramisu boasts a nice espresso flavor, it leans towards the sweeter side with a generous amount of crème. Overall, La Fontana Siciliana impresses with its fresh and authentic cuisine, ensuring a memorable dining experience. Can't wait to return and explore more of their enticing menu offerings!“
“Wow. This place is absolutely wonderful from the service to the food and the ambiance. All staff were absolutely amazing. They were welcoming and attentive at all times. The Cesar salad was refreshing with a touch of lemon and served with complimentary toasted bread. The butter made in house was smooth and creamy with herbs. For the main course we ordered the Tortellini con Piselli and the Lobster Ravioli. The waiter informed us that the Lobster Ravioli is a seasonal special so we were glad to be able to try it. If you love lobster then I think it’s a must try! We were way too stuffed to try dessert but I’ve heard great things about them. Apparently they’re made in house! I can’t wait to try the dessert on my next visit.“
“We love this restaurant. The food and service are always impeccable. We e eaten here twice several months apart. Each time, we were greeted warmly, shown to our table and waited on in an appropriate and timely manner. The cocktails are inspired and the food does not disappoint. Highly recommend.“
“This is the perfect spot for a date night! They make their pasta and pizza in house with homemade ingredients. Everything tastes fresh and is served with a smile. They have a great dinner deal where you pay $65 for a salad, pizza, pasta dish, and a bottle of house red or white wine that is the perfect amount of food for a price that cannot be beat in Seattle. I would also highly recommend the tiramisu off of the dessert menu.Vegetarian options: Many pasta and pizza options are vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: They are more than willing to accommodate any restrictions.Parking: It is somewhat difficult to find parking but it is available for free on the streets around the north and west.Kid-friendliness: Kids are more than welcome.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is very tightly organized but they will accommodate anyone in a wheelchair.“
“The entire staff was attentive and professional. We enjoyed the food but it was not up to the expectation we thought it should be. However, we would return and give it another try. My husband had the Caprese Salad but the mozzarella was a bit tough.“
“GREAT FOOD! you definitely need to visit once. The staff were very polite and helpful, and the servers were also very funny, they cracked a few jokes that just made the dinner better. We had ordered the antipasto assortito with the pizza carbonara which went together perfectly. And for dessert we ordered panna cotta which you should definitely get, it’s not very sweet but just the perfect balance and is simple and subtle. The overall dinning experience was a ten along with the ambiance. They also provide you with blankets incase you get cold especially if you’re sitting at a table in the patio.Also make sure to make reservations in advance as it is unlikely that you’ll find a table as per your preferred timing and they are usually full.“
“Dined in with family for dinner. There was quite some wait time, the restaurant was very busy. However, the wait was totally worth it. We did the lamb and margarita pizzas with some sides and drinks. The pizzas were really good, light and thin, crispy on the edges and soft on the inside, and had burst flavors. The service was good, very hospitable. The ambience is decent, a little noisy and cramped for sure. It’s definitely worth a try.“
“We had a lovely dinner at That's Amore . We shared a pear salad and the pizza with figs . Both excellent. We also shared scallopine which was also really good but we didn't really have room for all of it. The staff were all friendly, helpful and worked like a family. Definitely a date night success . Will be coming back.“
“We stopped by the restaurant on a weekday and decided to indulge in some pizza, bread, and stuffed mushrooms. Upon arrival, the restaurant was bustling with patrons, and we were informed of a wait. Concerned about our kids getting hungry, we were relieved when they offered us seating in "Nine Hats Wines," which happened to be empty at the time. We ended up enjoying our meal comfortably seated on the couch there.“
“I have been here four or five times now, it’s always a good experience overall. Great drinks, some amazing food and awesome desserts. It doesn’t get boisterously loud inside either which I really appreciate. Only took one star off because their food is sometimes not always the same level of excellence. There’s usually one or two items per meal at my table that someone just doesn’t care for. The risotto specifically has been very hit or miss, sometimes way too salty or with way too much cheese in it. But if you know the menu well there are some star items that are always good. The beef carpaccio is a long standing favorite, and I got the egg custard over peach sorbet for dessert last time I went and it was amazing, I almost licked the dish clean.“
“Makes you feel as if you are in some Italian grandmas kitchen waiting for a meal. It has a very older home vibe to it. I have gone here twice and found the pastas delicious as you can really taste the difference of house made pasta and not. They had gluten free pasta which is the main reason we had gone here as a friend has celiac. The service was okay as we did run out of water for a bit. Overall a nice place though.“
“Amazing atmosphere and amazing food. The pasta special with seafood knocked my socks off. The waiter had excellent cocktail recommendations and made the night memorable. The cannoli is worth it even if you're stuffed! AD1 attendees, this is the place to get your grub on.“
“Because I was visiting the market, I randomly chose an Italian restaurant for dinner. I ordered two portions of pasta. It was delicious. The shrimp had a strong flavor of shrimp oil and was very fresh. The tomato meat sauce noodles were well seasoned. The sour tomatoes were paired with pasta. Mason cheese powder is very delicious. You must try it if you have the chance “
“My wife and I decided to try a new place for pizza and pasta and man, this place hitAll the marks! I had the baked chicken Alfredo, we also ordered some cheese bread and the Eva pizza accompanied by a standard pepperoni pizza for the kiddos. Everything was outstanding! The pizza was just so damn good! The pasta was rich and creamy! Service was family oriented and made me personally feel like I was in a local neighborhood gem! Cannot wait to go explore the menu upon future visits. Thank you Lisa and Tom for the wonderful experience along with our server! 5 starts across the board!Kid-friendliness: So sweet and welcoming all around!“
“So refreshing to have a meal where the meal and the service are spot on. Every dish was a hit and our server Chloe made the whole experience come together perfectly. Happily come back again and recommend it to anyone else looking for a well executed and delicious Italian food experience.“
“My girlfriend and I had just gotten in to Seattle on a Tuesday night. Many restaurants closed by 8pm but we happened upon this gem here in Yelp. Service was great. Got to meet the owner Brandon and he took time to speak with us and share that this is his second restaurant. It's been open for about 6 months and he wanted our feedback on the food and the restaurant as a whole. We ordered the pappadelle and gemelli. Both dishes were immaculate. The pappadelle were perfect thin ribbons. And the flavor of the brisket in the gemelli was so delicious. Would order both again. Ambiance is trendy and great for a date night. Brandon was gracious enough to serve us some gelato on the house as well. Not something I personally would order but was pleasantly surprised with how delicious it was. Brandon also connected me with his friend at the cocktail bar Canon - who took great care of us. Thank you Brandon! Would come back to this restaurant again next time I'm in Seattle.“
“Great local coffee shop with a small bit excellent food menu. Had a great dinner of salads, lasagna and eggplant. BIG DEMERIT: completely full at 5:45p in Saturday, and the music was WAY TOO LOUD. Should have been turned down at least 15 decibels. Nearly impossible to have a conversation.“
“5 star service from a family restaurant. I always have a pleasant experience when I order from here. The Chicken Parmesan is AMAZING....the portions are also substantial. I'm moving neighborhood next week, if I had one choice of a restaurant in the area....i wish I could bring Pizzuto's.“
“Attentive service. The space we sat was heated and covered outdoors next to an old building. It was very loud.Food was quite good although we preferred the Tarajin at the original Altura better. The portions are quite small.Bathrooms were clean and the lighting was funny with a dark glow light vibe.“
“Wonderful early dinner, seated in the window it was the best of both, the cozy interior and the first warm day of spring without fully committing to sidewalk seating. The versatile wine list and wide ranging menu allow for any direction. The kids went pasta, I had a collection of appetizers and we shared some desserts. We've also had a few romantic dinners without kids, Vendemmia supports any experience you like, the commonality is the always immaculate food. There's a definite seasonality to the menu, and the cooking is superlative. Every time I eat here I always wonder why I don't do it more often.“
“We were a group of seven adults coming to Seattle specifically to experience dinner at Luigi's for the first time. We were intrigued to try the Chefs Dinner and it did not disappoint. We paid a set price and had no idea what would be coming, which was a fun adventure. We were served garlic bread, brussel sprouts in a bacon cream sauce, cured meats, roasted peppers with burrata, mixed greens with apples and feta, sausage tortellini with a vodka cream sauce, flank steak over a bed of mushrooms and creamy polenta and cannoli for dessert. It was a ton of food and everything was excellent. Lots of great flavors and colors in the dishes. The space was very open and casual in a neat old building. I expected more of an upscale Italian vibe. There were areas of untidiness back toward the kitchen and bathroom. There was modern rock music playing and a large TV with the football game on. The servers were attentive and unassuming, a little cool at first but warmed to us after a bit. We had a really good time and left fat and happy.“
“Stumbled upon this place while walking and being a tourist!What a cute and unique Thai restaurant. Their decor is unique and very instagram! Flowers all over the restaurant, teddy bears, lighting and all. Very modern but at the same time cozy….if that makes sense.Their drinks are definitely a piece of art and delicious just like their food. Pricy for a Thai spot- but it is Seattle.Highly recommended the chicken wings. It was super delicious and crispy!The pad thai definitely tasted authentic and not “American Thai” and they were generous with the prawns.I was slightly disappointed with the 1/2 duck. I wish it had more flavor and be served with so much bone.“
“Awesome sandwich! Ordered online and it was ready on time - picked up the order and walked over to the king street station and enjoyed our lunch on the Amtrak train!! Great hack for heading out of town, have the Uber drop you at the sandwich spot, it's only a couple blocks from the station! Cubano and spicy salami sandwiches were delicious.“
“I can't remember how I heard about Darkalino's but I knew they served pasta and it was in Pioneer Square. I wandered around today until I found it (sure, I could've made life easier by googling it but I didn't remember the name). After some waffling, I decided on the Aglio E Olio - garlic, Calabrian chili (gives a nice little kick), pecorino finely shaved, breadcrumbs which give a crunchy texture I wasn't quite sure I loved, but might?, olive oil, spaghetti. It was good, I enjoyed it and would recommend. Portion size seemed decent and filled me up but I did eat a PB sandwich an hour later so I probably could've eaten more :) The other dish I will try next is the ragu - feel like you can't go wrong there. I saw other patrons eating the Caesar salad and an eggplant parm sandwich and both looked liked they packed a lot of flavor. On the list of things to try. Servers were great. I came in a little after 12p and sat at the bar to eat since I was alone and only the 4-tops were open. It's a cool space. There's an upstairs seating section and also where the bathrooms are located though I didn't need to use them. I like the exposed brick walls with the contrasting white ceiling. Because it's cavernous with no sound dampening it is very loud. Anyway, great addition to PS!“
“The food bussin'The people hilariousThe atmosphere corporate.This place makes a mighty fine meal worth the pretty penny. Filling with flavor. I like when I order here.Vegetarian options: Vegi Pizza and the pastas have vegetarian optionsWheelchair accessibility: Right next to the Starbucks and is level with the pedestrian walkway.“
“Every dish we had was impeccable! My favorite was the Uni Spaghetti with Salmon roe. My husband’s favorite was the Lamb with Salsa Verde, but honestly you can’t go wrong. Alanna’s service was perfect, she had the best wine pairings and suggestions. Can’t wait to come again!“
“Exquisite menu, superior service. I enjoyed the ravioli and ceaser salad. The ravioli was served perfectly with a savory yet slightly sweet sauce. Sophia, the hostess, made every effort to accommodate our party and we were seated quickly. Dont miss this spot when you're in town.“
“Super friendly staff who care about their customers and great pizza (really tasty sauce!). Good selection of salads, too.Vegetarian options: Lots of salad options and vegetarian pizza toppingsKid-friendliness: 8" personal pizza is perfect for kids and Sahara also sells dough ballsWheelchair accessibility: ADA parking right near Sahara's front door and the Sahara staff will also carry out to the car“
“Had dinner there with friends last Saturday. The food was amazing and the staff was outstanding. In particular Christina and Garrett went over and above to make sure my party had a wonderful dining experience. I will absolutely visit this restaurant again in the near “
“The Starbucks coffee flagship store in Seattle was crowded with people many years ago, but this time there were 10% empty seats.I specifically asked the oriental-faced waiter about ordering...It feels like he deliberately said "Continuous ~ Big Chuan ~" in fluent English, indicating that he needs to scan to order.I know how to scan, why should I ask you for advice?Service points will be deducted.“
“We thoroughly enjoyed our early dining experience prior to a concert at St. James Cathedral on a Friday evening. The menu options were varied so each one of the three of us got precisely what we hoped for: high quality, scrumptious selections, in a quiet atmosphere, in a timely but unhurried manner. The star of the night, however, was our server, Vanessa, who took her time to take care of us, build a pleasant, warm rapport and provided excellent recommendations based upon our individual preferences. Stella is fortunate to have such a capable and professional representative of an overall exceptionalexperience.“
“I came here for the first time during lunch service. Willmott's Ghost offered a mixed experience for me. Highlights included the burrata and focaccia with olive oil, both of which were enjoyed for their flavors and texture. The calamari was one of the best I've had. The balance between crispy and tender textures along with the lemon aioli had me coming back for more! The potato pizza stood out for its unique flavor profile; the lemon and starch paired well. Though the margherita pizza tasted like the sauce was a little under seasoned. The fennel salad, while flavorful, was overpowered by its citrus and spice elements. The novelty of cutting pizzas with scissors was fun, but having it pre-cut would have been preferred. I give this place a 4 with room for improvement in seasoning and balancing flavors.“
“Food was delicious. We got the risotto with shrimp & scallops and the scallops with arugula. For dessert we had the affogato, and was pretty good as well, not too sweet the ice cream. Very tasty and quality. We sat and the bar and the guy there was friendly.“
“Very pleasantly surprised! I had pretty low-mod expectations about this place but it was really good especially for the price. We had the eggplant salad, burrata, the ravioli, and the bolognese and all were very good and super fresh. I couldn’t believe how fresh the greens were for especially for “fast food.” We’ll def eat here again.“
“We've been here twice now and have been very pleased both times. The pastas are all homemade and are SO yummy. The portions are generous. We tried the green salad and the burrata starters and those were both excellent, too! Nice atmosphere, kind servers. Overall, we recommend.Parking: If you can't find a spot in front of the restaurant there is more street parking in the neighborhood behind the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: They don't have high chairs available.“
“Really amazing Italian restaurant in Seattle. I went there for Valentine’s Day with my husband and we really enjoyed it. The food was AWESOME and so were the drinks. Everything was really tasty and we can’t wait to be back. The service was also top notch.Highly recommend it!“
“Persephone is part of La Medusa. As such you can have drinks here and appetizers. They will then put that on your tab for La Medusa if you're waiting for a table to open there.The bartender, Mark is amazing. Tell him what kind of drink you like and he will custom craft something for you.They have an amazing collection of Amaro's, and bitters to make your drinks. There are also some high-end grocery items you can buy there.“
“This is a stunning place to get a meal to cook at home, to take to the beach for a picnic, or hang out in their small lounge for an Italian happy hour. I absolutely love all the food. I have tried a lot of it at La Spiga, but there is stuff that you can get here that you can’t get at La Spiga. Everything comes in a perfect size and all the accompaniments you could think of are here. I have catered full on parties with items I’ve gotten from here and the reviews are always rave. People always ask me where they can get the food, and I tell them La Dispensa! It doesn’t hurt that it is located in the absolutely adorable Chophouse Row building in Capitol Hill.Vegetarian options: Lots of great vegetarian optionsDietary restrictions: You can get gluten free and vegan options hereParking: Parking is terrible but pickup is easy w a priority pick up space w a 30 minute limitKid-friendliness: Kids LIVE La DispensaWheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair accessible through chophouse row“
“The food was great and the service was impeccable. Jackson checked on us frequently to ensure we were able to proceed at the right pace.Definitely allow yourself enough time to do their food justice. Their pasta menu is fairly limited each night, to a few (four?) dishes. The two we had were very good, but if you've someone in the group who wants a specific Italian taste, they may be disappointed.“
“Really happy stumbled upon this place. To start off with- service and food was excellent!We were a party of 3. We all ordered food and shared it! Portions are decent however little expensive from other restaurants I have been to that serve similar food.Their gnocchi by far is the best I have ever had in my life thus far! So different and unique.Things I wouldn’t order is the red marble potatoes- not much flavor and the potatoes were semi raw. Burrata although was delicious, very expensive for the portion size.“
“We got lucky with street parking right around the corner but realize had we not found that spot, it probably would have been quite the search. Fun little place with a crazy high noise level. We ordered family style with small plates to share and our server did a nice job letting us know which dishes he would ask the kitchen to add an extra bite to so we could share equally and not have to negotiate who would be left out. Heads up on drinks; there is one white wine and one red wine that are served in a vessel that closely resembles my little cat's water bowl. We ordered a cider and that came in the same 7oz glass for a 12oz price. The mixed drinks were tasty and, in case you're wondering, served in actual drink glasses. The printed menu is supplemented by a specials board that is definitely worth ordering from. We ordered one plate each of arancini and meatballs and highly recommend both. We also had the arugula salad, which was fine, and a butternut squash risotto that used faro instead of pasta. It was warm and comforting. The pizzas are a must! We ordered two and between four people did not have a single leftover piece. We also had cod fritters that we all agreed were a miss. Days later I was still thinking about the arancini and meatballs, so let me drive it home that you have to get them.“
“Only problem I have with this place is that I myself have not spent more money and tried more of their food. Tandori pizza is spicy and super delicious, they have great deals for large pizza' for under $20 and they're really good size. Staff and vibes are awesome, great place.“
“Let me tell you about this place!We first tried them 2 weeks ago after I picked my wife up from work. We had the Bella Luna Special pizza and cheese bread. We ate in the car a couple blocks away. They only have delivery and pick up. Anyhow, omg! The pizza, the bread! So fresh, so tasty. I'm always on the hunt for amazing pizza and Italian food. My wife and I were blown away.Today, as of this review, we ate there again. I had the Quatro Formaggio with meat sauce, and my wife had the Gnocchi Gorgonzola. Again, ate it a couple blocks away. Outstanding! And super hot and fresh heh. The Quatro is a baked 4 cheese spaghetti. So good. My wife said the Gnocchi was delicious. If your in Burien or gonna pass by, you should try this place! We live in Covington and drove back again to eat this food. And we will continue to!“
“I cannot speak highly enough about Il Bitstro. I have been to this restaurant twice and both times have been superb. From the moment you walk in the door, you feel at home. I am incredibly impressed with the service staff, especially since it was only our servers second night at this restaurant. He was incredibly knowledgeable with the menu and was very personable. We even got to speak with the server who was training him, who was also incredibly nice. She had served us before and she is also a fabulous server. The support staff’s attention to deal was superb, especially with how they packed up our food in nicely folded bags. The food was fresh and delicious and the cocktails were incredible! We talked with the manager. She was passionate, friendly, and clearly cared about the staff. This is easily one of my favorite restaurants in Seattle. I can’t wait to come back.“
“I only knew about this awesome Italian restaurant thanks to the Tru hotel and their whiteboard recommendationsAm I ever glad for it, this place is the best Italian food I've ever eaten.The tortellini gorgonzola is (literally speaking) to die for. My friend had the Linguini Marco and was equally floored with itI can't honestly fathom ever going to olive garden again (I know, low bar)“
