The chop salad was good but a little bland. The bread was cold and not great. Why not a warm selection of several different breads?? The chicken marsala was very good. I substituted angel hair pasta for mashed potatoes -- a difficult choice because I love both and the do both very well. The mixed vegetables were good, especially the oven roasted cauliflower which was delicious! I would have preferred more, and leave out the celery and other yucky vegetables. But my real reason for commenting is the DESSERT. VERY, VERY AWFUL. Their chocolate mousse is anemic with very little chocolate flavor and obvious raw eggs - YUCK!! Knowing this, I chose the Creme Caramel because they didnt have my favorite Creme Brule. The Creme Caramel was HORRIBLE! Like cold, slimy cream flavored jello with runny, hard to scoop up "caramel". AWFUL! Not nearly as good and creamy as Creme Brule! Took several requests to get coffee refills but overall the service was good.

Weve been coming/getting take out here, for almost 12 years. The food is always delicious – many home made goodies! Bolognaise, Primavera Fettuccine, home made Sausages, Prosciutto Pizza & Osso Bucco w/ Saffron Risotto are some of our faves – also have good Seafood options. Specials often include fish & desserts (home made ice cream, etc). Theyve always been willing to accommodate our Vegetarian (there are veg dishes available) & Dairy Free requirements. A large restaurant with various areas, but its sometimes full. Reservations recommended, esp., on Thur, Fri & Sat, or for large groups. There is a bar with a large selection of drinks & you can wait there for take out. White linen tablecloths, so its also good for a special night out – some booths make it more private.

We enjoy coming here for a lovely Italian meal. Its a lovely restaurant with fantastic food. The atmosphere is always lovely and for such a fancy looking restaurant it is pretty casual. The food is yummy, you always get bread for the table and great fast service. The chocolate mousse is to die for!! Their ice creams are always delicious too and homemade in house. The food portions are a great size too, just enough to fill you. I highly recommend a trip here for a special meal or just to have a night out with some great food!

Had a lovely dinner here last night with friends, ordered the olives with orange marinade as an appetizer, Fantastico! I asked for a help from the kitchen and put in a special order for Squid cooked in Tomato sauce on pasta. It turned out great and I enjoyed every bite. Our friend celebrated his birthday, they did desert with candles. Nicely done. Cant wait to back again and try any happy hour specials they might have in the bar.

Compared to the pizza place, this is perfect. Excellent wine selection and the service is great and always come with recommendations for what is fresh. We are once a month diners here with family and I come to the happy hour bar with work friends, too. The location is odd if you are downtown, but lots of new traffic thanks to the wine district down the road. Pricing is very reasonable and they have kids menus.

This place may be a little on the expensive side but it is certainly worth it. I had the Pettini Affumacati, (smoked scallops with papparadelle pasta), the taste of the scallops was exquisite, smoky and sweet. There was also a good wine selection. The service was fantastic. The waiter checked on us frequently and chatted to us about the dishes and the wine. All in all an enjoyable dining experience.

As a young person sometimes service is something I have to fight for. That is not the case here! Sam was fantastic and attentive and even assured me other dishes could be made vegetarian no problem. The food was fantastic with a great price. They have gnocchi that tastes handmade, its hard to find as a stand alone dish and I was thrilled over every bite. Its a bit hidden though! Just trust the GPS lol

Although the food was good, the service was impractically slow and inaccurate (over 25 minutes to get our drinks, salads got "lost" etc). Management seemed passive and unable to remedy the situation. The bartender stepped up to the plate, doing what he coud to keep patrons sastisfied. The table next to us actually cancelled their dinner orders and left after their salads due to the service.

Service was impeccable. I had the special of the night which was a crab and shrimp ravioli. I love ravioli and was worried at first because crab ravioli are very rich in my experience. These ravioli were light and flavorful with pea shoots and artichoke hearts making it slightly bitter. The whole experience was simply magical.

I wish I took a picture but it was soo good I ate it too fast. I have been here twice so far and have been extremely satisfied with both meals. All have been rich in flavor and delicious! Plus the wait staff have all been extremely polite and attentive even during the evening rush! Cant rave about this place enough!!!

Came here for a late lunch on our anniversary. Way better than I had even hoped for. The salmon alfredo was fantastic and the lunch menu was significantly cheaper than I had anticipated to pay. Service was fast and friendly. Could not have had a better experience. The chocolate mousse was out of this world.

Conveniently located about a mile from the north Woodinville winery district, and a great place for dinner after tasting wines there! Upscale Northern Italian dishes, lots of gluten free options (including gluten free pastas), and a thoughtful wine list. Prices are reasonable, and service was quite good!

Came here with the wife because of good reviews on Google+. Was definitely not disappointed. The portions were large, the food was excellent, to the point that I wanted to gorge myself, and the atmosphere and service were both fantastic. Will definitely be going back. The rigatoni was to die for!

Lovely place. Very delicious food for a great price. Atmosphere very relaxing. Came here during lunch time and enjoyed their cannelloni crepes. The halibut was great too. Kind of easy to miss though if youve never been here before, but overall it deserves 5 stars!

Fantastic food, atmosphere and staff! Great selections of wines and drinks, the Sazerac is to die for. Fettuccine double cream is delicious. They have some of the best steaks in the area, the filetto di manzo is great and their osso buco is awesome as well.

Oh my goodness, this was an incredible find. The food is all housemade; pastas, sauces, and sausages. Creative well balanced dishes great flavors, the pastas are perfection. Every plate at our table was licked clean. We will be back as often as possible.

I think this Italian restaurant is overrated compared to others on the Eastside like Cafe Veloce in Kirkland or Tropea Ristorante Italiano in Redmond. The atmosphere is nice and quiet and the service is ok. The food just always disappoints me.

Awesome experience! Our waiter Max was superb, his suggestions were perfect. The food was hot and had a perfect mixture of flavors, the sauce didnt overpower the pasta and was a nice even balance of flavor. All-in-all, a wonderful experience.
