Best Restaurants for a Quick Bite in Mercer Island

Taylor is awesome! Made our experience even more lovely! Thank you Apple/pom chicken salad was fantastic and delicious

We have been coming here for since the year it opened, and are disappointed that the quality of the food and service has slipped slightly but steadily over time. The wait staff and bar service are all very polite, but not as accomplished and knowledgeable as we’ve had. The pizzas have become too wet, and the crusts now a wee soggy, even with no extra toppings. They seem underbaked; the crust no longer has any crunch with minimal or no brown on the bottom. This is still our favorite pizza in the area, but now only barely so. We hold out hope that things will improve for Tutta Bella, and all of us, in 2025.

Drinks were great, atmosphere fantastic , service a little dry

We dined pre-theatre and our server was careful to ensure we dined in time to get to the performance. He was competent, considerate and attentive without being over solicitous, making for an enjoyable evening of conversation and fine, fine food! Highly recommend this restaurant for a great meal in an ambiance in which you can actually have a conversation.

The service was EXCEPTIONAL. The staffing going above and beyond for a birthday at our table. The food was delicious, especially the Benedict's. Access directly off of 5 in the Renaissance with comped underground parking or valet. Will definitely return.
