Best Italian Restaurants in Phinney Ridge

As always, San Fermo exceeded expectations. From the ambience to the service to the food, our dinner last night was perfect. Our server also suggested two of their new dishes, the charred onion appetizer and the barley risotto and both were fabulous! Thank you San Fermo for yet another delicious evening! We’ll be back soon!

Best gin drink I have had! Thank you again for the great evening we couldn't have been happier and we will be back soon!

Grappa Seattle offers a fantastic Italian dining experience, and my recent visit was nothing short of exceptional. The highlight of my meal was the seafood risotto, which was perfectly creamy, rich in flavor, and packed with fresh seafood. Each bite had a wonderful balance of tender rice, briny sweetness from the seafood, and just the right amount of seasoning. It truly transported me to the coast of Italy. Beyond the risotto, their Italian-inspired dishes are equally impressive. From the beautifully plated appetizers to the carefully crafted pastas, everything exudes authenticity and attention to detail. I also appreciated their mocktail selection, which offered a refreshing variety beyond the usual overly sweet sodas. It was a great touch that added to the overall experience. My only critique would be the portion sizes, which felt a bit on the smaller side. While the quality was top-notch, I wouldn’t have minded a slightly more generous serving. That said, Grappa’s warm ambiance, attentive service, and outstanding flavors make it a must-visit for Italian food lovers in Seattle. I’ll definitely be returning!

First time to Pink Door and it did not disappoint! Everything we had was fabulous, the service was great as was the atmosphere! I felt at times I was in the 50’s with the decor and music which was fun! They even had real candles! We will definitely be returning!

Autumn is not struggling to bring in customers. Every seat was full, as was the bar, and there was a private party in the back room. There was a lot of energy and an overall good vibe. It felt at times that they were running at least one staff member short. There were frequent pile-ups at the check in desk because the host was also functioning as a server. This wouldn't be so bad if there was anywhere to wait, but there isn't (unless you want to wait outside). The food was good - we liked the Brussels sprouts and polenta fries appetizers. The steak that came to the table was under the requested medium. My wife's pasta arrived several minutes after the other entrees and was a little more al dente than she's accustomed to. We didn't send either back since we didn't know how long it would take for them to come back out. We'll still come back to Autumn, but this wasn't their best outing.
