22 Best Italian Restaurants near Bainbridge Island

“The food was really good!“

“If I were going to suggest anything, it would be to put a sign or something outside! It's tucked inside a minimall near a half dozen other eateries and a movie theater. Once we found it . . . True hospitality and wonderful food. I had cioppino and my husband the lamb ragu. Both were terrific. Highly recommend.“

“West side is and always will be the best pizza in Kitsap County. Not just because of the amazing Pizza made from the best ingredients, but because of the customer service. I don't think I've ever seen any employee of theirs without a big smile to welcome me. Same with delivery upbeat and happy phone service and great delivery person. It's just a wonderful company all around and I'm really thankful that we have one on Bainbridge Island.“

“We try to drop in here every time we dock in Winslow. This wood fired pizza is so wonderful with delicious toppings and excellent flavors. There were three of us in our group and we each ordered a different pizza - all delicious! We look forward to the next time!“

“We had an above and beyond experience at Il Nido. They have a parking lot which makes the transition there so much easier. We went a little hard, and got the focaccia, 2 pastas, the ribeye, polenta and olive oil cake. Every single dish was divine! Our waitress recommended the truffle butter with bread, and bone marrow butter on the ribeye. She also recommended having the polenta come out with the ribeye. She was so right! The interior of the restaurant is darling the service was incredible! This is our new favorite spot!“

“Fast service and great Pizza 🍕🍕“

“Enjoyed the menu’s fresh ingredients, traditional yet innovative twists. Housemade pastas were the stars. Very good wine list and reasonably priced.“

“Amazing experience and divine food!“

“My family and I regularly go to the Ballard Farmers’ Market and get pizza slices from Vespucci, a pizza vendor with the best pizza in Seattle - hands down. When we found out that they had an Italian restaurant we knew we just had to go. And so we did. All I can say is that the food is some of the best I have ever had, and you just need to try it out for yourself because the whole experience is amazing.“

“the vibe inside is really homey. the price point is great. I was able to comfortably order a few things to try. I also think the portions were good. the duck ragu was very good. I enjoyed that plate very much. the sauce pairs with the duck very well. it's fork licking good. the carbonara I didn't care for, I didn't finish it. it didn't taste quite balanced. also my pasta was under cooked. I checked to see if maybe I was given buccatini on accident but no, it was just underdone spaghetti. overall, I'll try it again. my experience I think was good for a first visit“

“My favorite place to eat in Ballard - the food, the staff and the atmosphere are all a delight, every time! They even cater to special dietary requirements and do a vegan pizza with actual vegan cheese (rather than just the bland stuff you’d normally get in most places), and their wholewheat crust is to die for! They also do the best dolma and the best hummus veggie platter. My whole family and I keep coming back, thank you!“

“Always amazing service and food. Wonderful space and visit as much as we can!“

“Mondello’s is a lovely place to dine. We felt completely comfortable. The food was delicious. We left full and happy.“

“Todo muy sabroso y delicioso 😋“

“Excellent experience! The food was superb, the service impeccable. An added bonus was the tribute to Burt Bacharach, with many songs played by a violinist. We will definitely return.“

“We came all the way from Denver to enjoy dinner here and we were not disappointed! The food, ambiance, staff…all first rate! What a wonderful meal.“

“Great place. Clean, was well staffed, courteous and quick service. Sauces were wonderful, salad crisp and chock full of veggiedswith great dressing. Meat balls and sauce, the best, Pizza looked and tasted good.definately 5 stars“

“Last week, a friend and I had lunch at Dalla Baia. Very enjoyable experience. I ordered the linguini with white clam sauce and my friend had the caprese salad. Both were delicious. My entree was very generous with the clams and so tasty! Highly recommended. My friend's caprese salad was beautifully presented and also a generous portion. We celebrated our fun lunch with some lovely Prosecco. If there was one teeny tiny criticism, it is that the focaccia is unremarkable. It comes (2 tiny slices per person) with one's entree, and a nice olive oil/balsamic vinegar dipping sauce. If you want to order more, it is $3.00. Not worth doing. Perhaps this otherwise wonderful restaurant will improve their focaccia recipe in the future. But don't let this stop you from visiting. The food is terrific.“

“Always a great place to take friends! We had dinner with a Legend last night Cliff McCrath! My college soccer Coach!“

“Well, I would recommend Spiro's only because in the 30+ years I've been dining there, it's been great... with the exception of yesterday! May 8, 2024, my birthday. Of all the places I could have chosen, I chose Spiro's because the Baked Tortellini sounded so good. And then it was served... so disappointing. It had been under the heat lamp or broiler for so long, the cheese was petrified on top and the tortellini on top was like biting stones. Nobody ever came to check on us. My daughter had to go ask for more of her beverage. Then she had to go again to ask for a box. I had asked for a pitcher of water at the counter where we ordered and paid. None was presented. I ran out of water and proceeded to drink what was left of everyone else's water. It just wasn't the birthday experience I had hoped for. Plus they were having roof work done so the loud thuds and bangs were startling at times! Mainly it was my entree and the service that disappointed me! When we left, nobody said thank you for coming in, nothing! And to think we left a tip before we were seated. Wish we could take that tip back, as it was in no way earned!!! Sorry Spiro's, you need to do better! I like your restaurant, but I'm not anxious to come back after yesterday, sadly.“

“This place is really amazing. The Hispanic lady running to pizza kitchens is amazing. She’s can totally multi multi task.“

“The manager here is completely rude to his customers and his staff. Refuses to refund or replace and item made incorrectly. Just terrible customer service. Think twice before giving your money to such a terrible person. Read many other reviews that talk about how the staff here is treated. The food is mediocre at best, but even of it was better, service matters. I'd encourage the owners to think about how they treat people and how they would like to be treated as a customer when the business was at fault. Disgusting. There were mushrooms sent to a kid with an allergy when it was clearly noted on the order to leave them off, there was a hair in the pizza. I would encourage the owner to take a class in customer service and learn to do what is right instead of being rude and snarky.“
