Excellent food, very poor service – The food was great; really some of the best I've had in Seattle. Unfortunately the evening--a special birthday celebration that we had looked forward to and dressed up for etc.--was pretty much spoiled by the service. An indicator: the only person from start to finish that made us feel truly welcome in this restaurant was the young man filling the water glasses; he was friendly and engaging, and not only did he immediately tune into the fact that we were unhappy with where we had been plac... read more

Seattle-Cuisine-Defined – This is it for Seattle. It's not some "new", "hip", "must try before it's not cool anymore", kind of place. This is a culinary staple. I love the food here. My colleagues, out-of-state guests and long time Seattleite friends love it. Ponti's service is on-par with Seattle's best fine dining restaurants, without the annoyance of the staff making you feel like you should sit up and take notice of it. You can eat the best Wild Alaskan Salmon entree in town sitting at the bar in your jeans. Or, dress fo... read more

Great weekday happy hour and bar menu – Last week, my girlfriends and I came in for Happy Hour and stayed til 9:30pm. We had so much fun, great view and nice service. We shared a couple of items off of the happy hour menu, tempura prawns and the calamari and some crab rolls off of the bar menu. We had a great bottle of wine and even tried a dessert wine which was surprisingly good, not too sweet. I was happy and very satisfied. Great desserts (chocolate cake and ginger peach pie) and very friendly staff our waitress was very... read more

Our special place – Ponti has always been one of my wife's and my special places and we have come to love Ponti. We are treated with friendly professional service always. It is our place to unwind and sit back and enjoy a great meal in a comfortable setting. Ponti's dinning room is remincent of a Tuscan restaurant we visited a few months ago, near Florence. And the patio on the ship canal with a garden of tomatoes used in Ponti's salads and soups is an added plus. We saw many tomato plants in restaurant gardens in Italy. We ... read more

Very expensive but good food – Don't know if it was just because it was Friday, but service was p-a-i-n-s-t-a-k-i-n-g-l-y slow with almost an hour between the salad and entree. It was also ridiculously expensive ($40 for ONE alaskan king crab leg). However, the food was delicious and the host/owner gracious. The restaurant does indeed sit above the canal, but the view is not really visible from anywhere but the al fresco dining tables.

Evening at Ponti = Happy boss – I suggested Ponti as the place to host a dinner for one of my company's most valuble clients. I knew that Ponti would be great as it has been on my previous visits. But my entire party was blown away by the staff's attention to every little detail of evening. When I made the reservation I mentioned that it was a very important dinner for our best clients. I was amazed when the Chef sent out a small appetizer to everyone in our party right after we were seated. It was a perfectly seared piece o... read more

There must be better in Seattle? – Given the fact this region is saturated with excellent seafood establishments we left feeling somewhat cheated. I know, I know it sounds harsh but when you drop $523.00 for a four top you could at the very least hope for a memorable evening. Aquire some competent staff (Yes this starts at Management) & we may be back for seconds. P.S.You call that a Bar scene?

FINEST PATIO MEAL TO BE HAD – my wife & I have dined here numerous times over the past 5 years or so. If you have not had a meal on the patio on a summer eve, you are missing one of seattles finest dining experiences. This patio is so comfortable with the crews, power and sail boats going by, and the bridge up and down. It is fabulous. We have reflected on the overall consistency of the meals, and it has always been well above average (great ceasar, and some of the best seafood prep in town, at least the top two or three). C... read more
