We went to celebrate our engagement and this will always be our first choice for special moments. The food was indescribable and perfect. The tiramisu will change your life for the better and there is no bad app or entree choice. Our service was amazing and it's just the best place in Ballard.

The Bolognese is San Fermo's signature pasta for a reason, and the Summer Peaches were amazing!
Taylor
We absolutely adore this restaurant and the food always leaves us so satisfied. Everything was delicious and the vibes are perfect from anywhere from a romantic evening to a night out with parents. The quaint farmhouse vibes are lovely, and everyone who works here is so kind and goes out of their way to make you feel at home.

They add a 24% service fee automatically added to the bill. We aren't a fan. As in this case our waitress was not attentive at all. This was unfortunate. Pasta was excellent and the meal was good. However we were celebrating a birthday and we had to flag people to order drinks, etc....
Natasha
San Fermo continues to be our favorite neighborhood stop. It's cozy, charming- food is always wonderful and so is the service.
Alan
Great dining experience, as always. Staff is top notch, as is the food. Wine list is well curated—again, as always—and the current dessert offering (torta di mele) was excellent!
Imogen
Wonderful experience as always. The food is always excellent, the ambiance wonderfully authentic, rustic chic, and the service perfectly executed.

Phenomenal! Would definitely go again! The ambience on the deck was so cozy, with heaters, soft lights, and tree cover. Denise was lovely and took such great care of us; she provided so many great recommendations (do try the butter!). The food is fresh and delicious; we were lucky enough to be able to try the peach salad (with end-of-summer peaches, also a Denise recommendation!) and an incredibly fresh caprese salad...I would go back for those alone! And the bolognese and risotto were perfect.
Eva
Wonderful evening. Great drinks, outstanding service - friendly and attentive. The halibut was amazing!
Jake
We have a lovely time whenever we book with San Fermo. Our server was great and was one of the somms on staff which made the entire experience smooth and catered. Food is amazing. Loved the lamb with the berry gremolata this last visit. Thanks!
Every dish we ordered was great. The atmosphere was perfect for a long dinner for four. Decent conversation and the usual even better wonderful food,
Karen
An excellent meal and the service was fantastic. This is the third year in a row that we've come here for a birthday celebration and are blown away every time.
Mannat
The food here was great, everything tasted good. However, our experience with the host and the server left a bit of a bad impression.
Brian
Food was quickly served despite asking for it to be spaced. Main meal was served without removing the appetizer plates and no fresh silverware. Waiter did take 25% off for poor service. Food was not so great.
Cory
Great food and experience, highly recommend. This was our second time having dinner and it was phenomenal both times.
