Atrocious Service! – We have been to this restaurant several times before and thought the food was pretty good. So, it's very unfortunate that I feel compelled to write in my very first poor review. My fiance and I went in for dinner on a Sunday evening and were made to wait so long that we both got that terrible "let's-get-the- hell-out-of-here-because- we're-not-even-being -acknowledged" feeling. Right as we were about to leave (Which we should have done, but hindsight is 20/20, blah!), the manager finally came over...He n... read more

I don't condone this treatment of staff. – Although the food and ambiance were wonderful, I will not go back to this establishment. Our server was wonderful, but as we took our first bite, we noticed the manager or owner was loudly criticizing the hostess. The things he was saying were very inappropriate and unneccesary. We then heard him snapping at another female employee. If this happens in the short time we were there as patrons, I can't possibly imagine how it is on a day to day basis. I would NEVER patronize an establi... read more

such good bruschetta! – I've been to this restaurant twice and I can't wait to go back! I have never had any of the problems the other reviewers had with the service. I was always treated politely and promptly. The bruschetta options they have are awesome. I've tried the funghi and eggplant and I'm excited to try the others. The bread is nice and light and crunchy. Also, if you are looking for a wine and don't see it on the list, don't be afraid to ask. I wanted a muscato d'asti, but didn't see it on the wine list, however t... read more

Great food, great service – I love this place! We are always welcomed warmly when we arrive and the staff is great. The owner has even stopped at our table and shared wine with us. There is a covered patio outside for summer evenings but the inside has a nice out-world feel. The food arrives quickly and our meals have been great. The chef has specials for seasonal items and prepares them well. I recommend this place for a special occasion like a birthday or anniversary as well as a Thursday dinner. Check it out!

Now That's Italian!!!!! – The moment you walk in the door you are greeted by warm smiles, sometimes hugs, since we have become regulars. Guiseppe and Rober' make their rounds frequently and are engaging for the entire dining experience. I have tried almost everything on the menu and have yet to be disappointed, with one exception....the middle of the pizza's can sometimes be soggy. The crepe's are unique and the DAILY FRESH List is definitely worth paying attention to. One SUPERB dish after another.

Outside in hot weather, outstanding – Great find. Nice outside dinging in hot weather. And nice inside. Two of us, and average eaters. Split a ceasar salad and a ham, artichoke and sausage pizza. Could not eat it all and had to bring some home. Highly recommend. Nice people and grreat food and i eat out 80% of the time.

Service just okay, everything else horrible – Where do I start? Our server was nice enough although she was the only one serving the entire restaurant. We ordered 2 appetizers and she ordered one of them wrong and never came to ask how it was so that we could tell her. When our entrees arrived the steak that my brother ordered (birthday boy) was way undercooked. They took it back and we were all finished with our dinner when it came back and it still wasn't right. We ordered a 2nd bottle of wine and they were out of it so th... read more

Cozy Italian cafe and pizzeria side-by-side in Belltown offers dependable standards. – The Scene Owned by a pair of Italian brothers and named for Roberto Bengini, with whom one of their cousins went to school, this comfortable Italian trattoria is perfect for rainy weeknights. The space, found at the bottom of Belltown condos, is actually divided into two connected restaurants: A casual cafe to the north serves panini, pasta dishes, soups and salads, while the slightly more formal restaurant to the south offers pizza and a ... read more
