“The pizza here is by far the best and my favorite in Seattle! The way they cook the cheese and pepperoni under it is ridiculously delicious! Highly recommended, you won't be disappointed!“

“AMAZING FOOD & SERVICE!! ANGIE ROCKS!!“

“We love the service, food, and atmosphere. We enjoyed two of this evening’s specials, the Lobster Ravioli with prawns and the Ribeye, both were over the top. Fernando and the Head Chef were both off this evening and the staff and food were as great as if they had been there. They all take their part in the restaurant very much to heart and it shows. Thank you for making Renton your first of many locations to come. Cheers!“

“I have never had pizza to go and went there tonight. The second I walked in Patrick, Danni and Giuseppe were so warm, welcoming and quite the comedians! They suggested a glass of wine while I waited for my pizza so I went and had a glass of wine. The bartender was just as amazing as them! Hands down the best customer service in a long time and the pizza was outstanding! I'll definitely be back! Thank you :)“

“We went here after driving by and remembering about the spot. With the amazing view on 99. We were not disappointed. We got a nice spot on their expansive deck and got to enjoy the view and sunset. The staff was very friendly and the manager or owner made sure to check in with us too. We got lasagna and a Caesar salad and both were very very good. This easier was cold and had plenty of dressing and lasagna had a very tasty meat sauce.
We asked about their gluten-free options and it sounds like they might be pretty good. We typically go gluten-free but wanted to indulge. Next time we might go the gluten-free option.“

“Authentic, fresh, and entirely delicious. The homemade cannelloni pasta noodles and filling were absolute perfection! Fantastic marinara! And the pizza… amazing. So much for leftovers! And I haven’t even mentioned the kindness of all of the staff. Can’t wait to come back to this gem!“

“Fantastic service for a party of 20 in the banquet room. The food was delicious and the waitress was so flexible and helpful. Even cutTing the birthday cake and returning a forgotten phone & credit card. Thanks for making my birthday perfect.“

“Great service from William, overall the service was 5 star. Really enjoyed the mixed appetizer plate, great bottle of wine on the special. The linguine de mare with the rose sauce was excellent. The raspberry sauce with key lime torte was exceptional. Also enjoyed the boozy tiramisu.“

“Delicious food, great happy hour and such a nice server“

“Some friends invited us to dinner and from the moment we entered the aromas had our mouths water. Tasty pasta dishes and wonderful desserts. I had the lemon cheesecake and if you like lemon you won’t be disappointed. The seasonal pumpkin cheesecake gave the Cheesecake Factory a run for the money!!“

“Delicious, gracious and you will even learn some Italian!“

“I really like the pizza here. The crust is not too thick or to thin and the toppings are good.
Reminds me of a hometown pizza place called Campanas over on the Peninsula my folks used to take us too as kids. Toppings were just enough of everything and good flavor. The house red wine is really smooth, restaurant itself is a old Burien school Italian vibe. I will be getting pizza from here again. One of of my top 3. Prices are pretty decent as well.“

“33 years ago, my new wife introduced me to Vinces. In her previous marriage, Vinces in Renton was the family go to. One bite of Vinces pizza and I was hooked. The only negative is Vince's pizza has spoiled me to every other pizza place in the area. Vinces pizzas are Neapolitan style......much, much better (in my humble opinion) than any other pizza's. Vince's is the place our family always meets for special occasions. We have always been treated very well. My 9 year old grandson told me Vince's pepperoni pizza is his favorite.....it happens to be my favorite too. Writing this I'm starting to crave a pizza! Their other menu offerings are equally excellent. A year or so ago, we stopped for lunch. Out of the blue, I ordered one of their Italian Hero's. I will say it was the absolute BEST Sub/Hero/Grinder I had ever eaten. If you have not been to Vinces, so yourself a favor and try it. You might find you have a new favorite pizza/pasta place. A++“

“Wonderful food and wine .“

“Absolutely FANTASTIC food and the service is top notch! Our server Veronica was FABULOUS and David the bartender made my daughter the fanciest mock tail! Treat yourself and enjoy the experience!“

“We have gone to this place many times. Great food, the chicken parm is very delicious, served piping hot with the mozzarella all melted on top.

Their pizza is very good too, although to be honest, one time we went they must have had a different person made it because it was meh once.

Minus 1 star because they sent their menu with some coupons. The coupons didn’t state any expiration date, but when we tried to use it today, it wasn’t honored.“

“Great service, great food.... love this place🥰“

“Our ohana loves going to Olive Garden, but this Olive Garden has something that the others lack, a server named Mark who made our family time exceptionally beautiful. He went above and beyond in getting us what we desired to consume, and made us laugh, and feel genuine joy throughout our entire meal. This man was a blessing to my ohana and I, and we're so grateful that Olive Garden has hired wholesome employees like him. Mahalo Mark.“

“Came here after a very long shift to have dinner with my mother and our server was absolutely wonderful, he was so nice and would check up on us often and then was able to give us our meals in a timely manner, whether it was the chef’s doing or his, our experience was amazing. Enzo was wonderful and I hope to have him as our server next time.“

“Excellent experience … first time here.“

“Whenever we're in SeaTac this is our go to! Hard to believe you can get good airport food for a reasonable perfect. The food is made to order and they have LARGE pasta portions. The service has always been very friendly. And the seating area is open and refreshing. My kids love their pizzas too.“

“Very good 🍕 pizza Mart west Seattle“

“Great place pizza is amazing, and garlic twists are recommended 100% good prices and the staff are very nice people just great place overall“

“We had the pizza delivered to our hotel. On time delivery and excellent pizza.“

“Great pizza, hot and delicious. Crust is one of the best around. Plenty of cheese, just the right amount of sauce, toppings covered the pizza. Only reason atmo is 3 stars is it is just a pick up counter. I did get a chuckle out of the collection of items on right side of counter. If you want good pizza, this is the place. They have pizza rolls, sandwiches, salads and desserts.“

“I just love this place out of all the other restaurants in the mall their food always fresh their equipment always clean and they serve the best chicken ranch pizza it’s just try and the crew is just the best crew you will meet. The manger is always nice and as a regular they always remember my order which makes me feel like I am seen and taken care of. Exactly how I should feel. They know what they’re doing and they do it best !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Best pizza in town. 5 stars out out 5 stars.“

“The atmosphere is rough but the food was tasty. Try the subs.“

“The employees here are polite and attentive. Very professional, unlike the other food vender to the left of them. They have a good variety of food choices at this s establishment. They also sell pizza by the slice, which is hard to find a lot of times. The meatballs and the sauce are very delicious, tender and moist and juicy. The Mediterranean salad hits the spot, I put Caesar salad dressing in mine. The vegetables for okay , could have used a bit more zing. The price wasn't too high but it wasn't very low either. They do have combo meals here which I would like to point out. I was in the mood for my own type of combo so none of the food was discounted. But if you go for one of the combos you can get a decent meal for 10 to 15 dollars. Those are fair prices. Next time I'm here I will try the pizza. looks good“
