Quality comparable to a sit down restaurant. Fast service, decently priced for airport food. I got a calzone, and liked it so much I went back the next day for 2 more (flight got delayed). Great range of hours for a traveler as well. Would recomend!

Breakfast pizza (bacon, sausage, egg, cheddar, mozzarella, peppers) was good. Breakfast frittata was ok, tasted really bland. Service was slow.
This was the best calzone I have ever had! Warm & delicious!!

This is my favorite place to stop for early morning flights. Try the breakfast calzone- it’s incredible!
Update, 2026: I read the bad reviews and I couldn’t disagree with them more. I will say that all of the bad reviews still remarked on the stellar service, which truly is stellar, but I digress.
First of all, someone gave a bad review because the calzone was “just a folded pizza.” Yes. Yes it is. That is the description of a calzone. They also complained that there was sauce in the calzone- I don’t know that I have ever had a calzone without sauce, but it’s an odd thing to give a bad review for.
Second, the Italian sausage is amazing. It’s not crumbles, but very tender slices and very fennel forward. It’s very good! Try it! I know it’s not what American pizza typically contains, but I believe it was a very good choice on the owners part to use the current sausage they’ve selected.
Third, this place is not expensive. A pizza in Seattle, any size, is going to cost you at minimum, $20. Little Caesar’s is $15-$25 in Seattle. The prices here are a steal! $16 for a massive breakfast calzone with sausage and bacon? You’re going to be hard pressed to beat that here in Seattle.
Lastly, it can take a little while to get your food here, however, I don’t believe it takes any longer than the surrounding restaurants. If you’re in a hurry, they have grab-and-go items like sandwiches, tiramisu, cannolis and salads next to the register. If you have time, it’s worth the 5-10 minute wait for a pizza or calzone fresh out of their massive pizza oven. I had 45 minutes to spare before boarding and still managed to order my calzone, allow it to cool, eat it, and walk all the way to the C gates with time to spare.
Go here. It’s worth it, I promise!
This place is good enough to have a location in Seattle proper. I really wish they did- I would be a regular. If they were serving breakfast calzones in Pike Place Market, the U-District or Pioneer Square, they’d see me at least once a week.

Happy every time I end up in Seattle to return to Pallinos. The dough is sublime.

Was the only place open late. I wasn't disappointed. I got the lasagna and tiramisu. Both was delicious!

Location within the airport is quite great and the service is as good as you’d expect for a typical airport restaurant, but the positives stop there
I ordered a margherita pizza, a bacon n egg breakfast sandwich, 2 coffees, tiramisu and connoli. Everything was underwhelming borderline disappointing. I was too hungry so I forgot to take pictures, so given I was too hungry anything should have tasted great but it didn’t.

Food lacked flavor and the calzone was rubbery. Maybe needs a sauce with less water so the crust isn't soggy

Don’t expect anyone to care about your flight time. They lie when they tell you how long the order will take and then gaslight you trying to say they told you the time the order would take (which is not accurate). Stay away.

I mean airport Italian food right? The people we super nice, the food was good and came out quickly. Also the portions on the pasta were very generous. I was pleasantly surprised.

Love Pallino and miss their other locations. However the price for what you get does not match. I spent $70 on two drinks and 3 personal sized pizzas…

Well, I can't talk about the food since I didn't get to order. They refused to make any adjustment to my pizza, even tho it says on the sign that you can create your own.
You clearly can see them putting the toppings one the pizza... they told me, it comes pre mixed. What a lie..

Got a grab and go salad and mini cannolis. Salad was very fresh and the dressing was tasted scratch made and had good flavor. Cannoli were soft from the humidity of the case. The label said good through the next day, but probably should get pulled sooner. Pity because the flavor was there just not the satisfying crunch. I might opt for tiramisu next time which looked legit
