50 Best Italian Restaurants near Woodinville

“Very Italian in the atmosphere. This may be the best thing about the place. The food was very reminiscent of what I had living in Napoles. Not outstanding but quite good.“

“This restaurant remains one of my favorite Italian restaurant. It’s an older establishment, ie been around for at least 20 years. Despite all the growth and changes around the Woodinville area with restaurants come and go, I am pleased that this place continues to thrive with the changes.

While the service may have felt somewhat indifferent, the food is absolutely delicious and ultimately it’s the food that we came for. The appetizers were fresh, the entrees authentic and sumptuous, and the super Tuscan wine was delectable.

The only disappointment I had was they used to serve warm freshly baked bread as table bread, now they serve store-bought sourdough bread.“

“This place has great pizza beer and staff! Highly recommend!“

“Wow! I’m very impressed with Rimini. We made a reservation with a note that we were celebrating our anniversary, and the staff made it feel like such a special night.

We enjoyed the view from the table, the decor, the accordion music, the delicious drinks and food - all of it. I’ll be back for another special occasion or if I’m in the mood for some Italian food in Kirkland :)“

“The servers were all wonderful, very attentive & helpful. If you park in the garage, mention that to the greeter when you arrive. It's a popular place so it gets crowded & a bit loud --that's the only negative from my POV.“

“Great Mediterranean food in a pleasant, neighborhood atmosphere 😊“

“For over 20 years we have enjoyed every meal on the menu. They are the only restaurant that I know that make their own pastas, sauces, bread, and desserts. What a difference that makes. Everything is fresh tasting and satisfying. The meatballs are so light and tasty, eat them slowly to enjoy every bite. Not only are their pastas and pizzas delicious so are their appetizers. I love how they roast their eggplant and they serve it in an incredibly rich tomato sauce with Gorgonzola on the side. Their steak is cooked to perfection with an amazing sauce, a grilled pepper, onion, and their incredible handcut shoestring fries that are to die for!! Enjoy“

“My girls took me to Cafe Veloce for my birthday and it was amazing! Service was great and the food was superb. I had the Dungeons pasta, yummy!!! It was my first time dinning at Cafe Veloce and will not be my last. Highly recommended.“

“visited the Eve of April 2, 2021: Our server was delightful she was warm and offered suggestive drink psirings that were spot on for what we were looking for to compliment our food. The food was absolutely delicious, and the environment very inviting. The whole evening was a lovely experience. I will definitely be back.“

“An excellent place to celebrate! My husband took me here as a surprise for my birthday and it did not disappoint. Matthew was an excellent server-prompt, knowledgeable and polite. The food was fantastic, the drinks phenomenal and they really know how to make birthdays special without being over the top about it. We will be back and requesting Matthew as a server soon! Cannot recommend this place enough!“

“This has to be our favorite regional restaurant. The staff are so lovely and helpful. The food is ridiculously delicious. Even when we discussed recent slightly imperfect experiences at Canlis and The Herbfarm, this crew was so professional and filled with camaraderie for their “competition” that it made us love them even more. Just exquisite. In addition, they introduced us to the most lovely pear cider from France that we now order for the kids for holidays and parties. Bring a deep pocketbook and go with the cellar/sommelier pairings. So nice.“

“Amazing food and staff!!!!“

“Amazing service and great menu! 5 star review. Looking forward to our next visit!“

“I always get my Salad its the best , all the vegetables are fresh. Its the best salad ive come across in my area. ive had it at least 100xs. It's consistently the best! if you want a great authentic Italian dish, this is your spot.“

“Wonderful Italian restaurant. a Kirkland neighborhood treasure.“

“My word this place is fantastic. Shame this good local Italian is 1500 miles from home. Service is friendly and quick. Incredibly filling.“

“Excellent food and service. A hidden gem“

“The Queen Anne How to Cook a Wolf is consistent in being excellent. The food is always prepared to perfection. The ingredients are well sourced. The atmosphere is lovely. The staff is incredibly friendly without being intrusive. It's my favorite neighborhood restaurant and one of my top 3 in Seattle.“

“Sadly this restaurant that I previously considered family oriented and reasonably priced is no longer so. My last visit noticed alarming high prices for some of the offerings. Ordered my usual spaghetti with marinati sauce, now advertised as being "spicy" as preactically non eatable. Much too much pepper added for my taste. Verbally complained but was barely listened to.“

“Been to many Italian restaurants being Italian living in Australia and to being at Ristorante Paradiso in Kirkland Washington Seattle was the best Italian restaurant I have ever been to. Service was outstanding and had the best white wine I have ever had in my life a memorable experience“

“I love the family here, from the owner to the son and his wife and kid that are there sometimes. They're always welcoming and it feels like going to a friends home for dinner. Sure, the place surrounding it can sometimes not be... Great, but being safe inside and having sketti makes it worth it. My family came by for the Thanksgiving dinner in 2025 and I want that again! Please come by, I promise it's worth it, they're so sweet.“

“We really enjoyed our meal at Sages in Redmond. The Wife’s Favorite pasta and the cheese ravioli were both comforting, flavorful, and pleasantly easy on the stomach. Everything felt satisfying without being too rich or heavy. We also tried the dessert sampler with three pastries, which was a perfect way to end the meal. Overall, it felt like a warm and relaxed place for a very enjoyable dinner.“

“5 Stars!! Excellent menu, delicious food, fast, friendly service!“

“Ate their paneer biryani and it was the worst in the area. I'm surprised because you would think with so many Indian restaurants around, this place should've checked competition before starting it.“

“I was staying in the Wedgewood area for a few days. I stopped in to get a gluten free pizza. (I have celiac.) They were wonderful to me. They prepared and cooked my pizza separately from the rest. I don't remember the special I had but it was delicious. I ate the leftovers for lunch the next day. I didn't have any issues with my celiac.
Thanks so much for a great pizza!“

“Amazing food, wonderful service and a lovely atmosphere! Nice place for romantic dinner or bring a group. I'll be back!“

“Luz is a wonderful server! She is warm, welcoming and genuine. Throughout my meal she was highly attentive and made great recommendations (I really enjoyed the passion fruit tea she recommended). Her service was top notch and prompt. She anticipated my needs, I never had to ask for anything.
I don’t remember the last time I had such positive service; my afternoon is better for having stopped by.“

“Great place for date night.“

“They have the best & freshest Italian food around! You will not be disappointed! Can’t wait to go back!“

“My wife and I have come here for the drinks and occasionally truffle pommes frites or some oysters, but this time we tried some of the other menu items for dinner. My wife got the Halibut (Chapter 6) and I got the Mushroom Pasta dish. (Chapter 5)

I asked Casey if he recommended the mushroom dish and he said it was one of his favorites. I'm not a foodie, so I don't get overly excited over food but let me tell you... It was so good that it prompted me to write a review about it. I actually felt an endorphin rush from eating it! My wife loved the halibut, (which I also tried) and I would say getting her to eat fish is usually a challenge unless her fisherman father prepares it!

I would recommend a Manhattan or Old Fashioned, which Casey also pointed me towards some new Rye to try. Fantastic as always!

I had placed an order for oysters but apparently they were forgotten, but I was so enamored with the mushroom dish that I didn't even care. Casey offered them to me on the house as he felt bad, which was a very nice gesture. I wasn't upset at all!

Now we would like to try all the other dishes, because if both meals were that good, how can they miss with anything else?

I didn't take photos of the food because I inhaled it :)

Thanks Casey and the rest of the staff for great service and amazing food/drinks!“

“I recommend the Old Spaghetti Factory! The spumoni is the best anywhere! What I wish is that you put the Angel Hair [Capellini] Pomodoro back on the menu as it has always been my favorite on the menu. I can always make it at home but it wouldnt be as great! They did not even have angel hair available for me to somehow piece meal it together off the menu! Outrageous! Please bring it back! Easy to make and economical. Thank you 😋“

“My fiancé and I have been going here for almost 6 years for lunch and dinner, every single time we have been given excellent service and the food has consistently been amazing. We love this location as it is our go to and highly recommend!“

“Every meal I've ever had there was good. And the service was spot on.“

“Crossroads Italiano is the go-to spot for anyone craving Italian comfort food! The menu is filled with all your favorites, prepared with authentic flair and served with a side of warmth and hospitality. The staff here are fantastic—always smiling, welcoming, and ready to recommend the perfect dish to satisfy your taste buds. Don't forget to follow them on Instagram for updates on their mouth-watering specials and more. If you're looking for a delightful Italian dining experience, look no further than Crossroads Italiano!“

“Great food! I feel bad I think me and my cousin messed around a little bit to much infront of worker,

Super nice staff though!

Dont be annoying

On pricy side though but great quality food

Strawberry lemonade was great“

“Hands down one of the best pizzas I've ever had in my life and it all begins with the dough. #lightsout“

“I moved out of the area about 10-12 years ago. Back in the area for a while. Was driving down willows RD and saw the sign. Stopped in and grabbed one. Still amazing pizza and loved it!“

“Been here twice now and it is amazing! Had the pizza last time I was here. Tonight I had the Italian Meatball Sandwich. It was huge and very filling! Not dry like most places. Had semi spicy meatballs, provelone and marinara sauce on a toasted roll. Yum!! Will be back for sure!“

“Delicious happy hour options, including pastas. Our server Ginger was super friendly, attentive, and helpful. Pasta servings are huge and well worth what seems like an expensive cost per meal. We were pleased with the service and food, especially the Carbonara.

Two pastas and a Caesar came out to $120ish but we used the inKind app to save some money. 20% service charge is included in all checks.“

“I recommend the Pizza and the Staff. The amazing FREE customer service is fabulous. They really care.“

“Great service. Very unique menu.“

“Silver Lake Pizza & Pasta is one of the gems of Everett! To swing by for single slice and a great greeting that is like 'swinging by the house' to grab a bite before you hit the road at the 112th HOV o ramp. Have known the owner since the original
building on the lake was closed. Same food, same smile, same quality. Worth every penny when you taste the food and a small business owner I am proud to support.“

“Great food, service, and atmosphere!“

“Baked pink sauce spaghetti is fabulous! The best I have ever had😊😊😊“

“Excellent waterfront dining. I have been twice with a group. The food is well prepared, seasoned and beautifully plated. India and outdoor seating make great options to catch the sunset. The inside space fills quickly on any given night, so the noise level means conversations can be tough if you're at a larger table, but 4 people or less would be fine for chatting. I recommend the lamb chops and the mushroom side.“

“Hands down best pizza in Seattle“

“Amazing local pizza place! Authentic food, fast service and a nice vibe!“

“great food, friendly service, one of our favorite spots“

“Fun little dive bar in a strip mall. I've only been for weekday lunch, but the beer is good, food is really good, and the dive bar atmosphere gets upscale with office chairs. I've had the grinder and Cuban and both were great with lots of fries/tots/onion rings too accompany. We also had a shrimp in a spicy cream sauce appetizer that was really good. The pizza was good, but I much preferred the sandwiches.“
