Carolina C.

I hadn't visited this gem in quite some time, and I'm happy to say it's just as good as I remembered. The staff were wonderful--clearly working as a team and supporting one another, even during a busy service (which came as no surprise given how delicious the food is). My salad was slightly under-seasoned, but I still enjoyed it, and everything else we tried was fantastic--from the pizza to the cannolis. I would absolutely recommend this place!

Margherita
Johnny L.

I asked Yelp's new AI to recommend a good Neapolitan pizza spot and it found this so I thought I'd give it a try. It's a lovely cozy traditional restaurant with charming decor. The service is very friendly and efficient. Shout out to Liza for amazing service! Alright on to the food. Cappuccino 5/5 This is a very good cup of coffee that really reminds me of my time in Italy. Low acidity and smooth with no sugar needed. Excellent to the last drop. 4/5 Clams have great flavor and wrapped in a foil. The sauce is slightly tangy with a strong hint of white wine and very flavorful. This was very delicious but unfortunately the clams were a bit sandy. They apologized and didn't charge us for it so I really appreciate that. margherita pizza (5/5) I added sausage and mushrooms to this pizza and it is absolutely delicious. The mushrooms were plump and juicy and the sausages were delicate, bouncy and meaty, flavorful and amazing to eat. The pizza itself is a masterpiece of perfectly baked crust, delicious cheese and tomato sauce. This pizza is hands down the best pizza I've had in Seattle so far! I did not have room for dessert but I'll definitely come back to try other items.

Steamed clams
Jaynne L.

Came here for the first time to treat myself. Parking was easy and there was plenty. The service was excellent and I got to sit right at the bar and watch them make all the pizzas! I ordered the steamed clams with bread. It was so delicious and fresh! I had their Giovanni pizza and the toppings were definitely plenty. I'm not sure if I'm just used to the crust on the pizza or because of all the toppings, but some parts of it was mushy in texture. It was still really good. Just a texture thing. I ended my night with cannolis. Also their spicy olive oil is so good! I had to put it on everything! I'll definitely be back to try more!

I've seen this place for over a decade now but never gone in until last night. It's very homey and cute inside. I finally took the plunge to go because my friend said this place is better than Tutta Bella. We ordered the Vomero (prosciutto and arugula) and Enzo (rapini and sausage) (both 12 inch pizzas) and both had a delicious, non-soggy crust that was soft and well-baked. There was plenty of toppings on both pizzas, but I do wish there was a little more prosciutto on the Vomero. The sausage they used was delish and I never had rapini before but I ended up loving it. Pizzas came out FAST! It felt like under 5-10 minutes! One pizza should be enough for 1-2 people. I overhead that they can do split toppings on 1 pizza but it could only have 1 sauce. Total for 2 pizzas was about $46 after tax. I look forward to coming back and trying more! Service was fine but it did feel a little rushed. For instance, we were almost finishing up but I was still eating when we got asked if we wanted our leftovers boxed. Admittedly, it was getting pretty crowded so I understand if they wanted open tables. They boxed the leftovers for us which was nice. Only concern I had was that they seated us in a small table in the corner by the bar where the chili oil, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper were on this little shelf that also showed old pictures. The shelf and pictures were very dusty and every time my boyfriend grabbed the red pepper flake bottle I was afraid the dust would sprinkle onto the pizzas. Considering it was at eye level too, it wasn't great for the appetite. If any staff read this review please consider cleaning this shelf once in awhile!

Pear & Gorgonzola salad
Lily S.

We stayed almost next door to this place during our trip to Seattle, and this quickly became a favorite. Their pizzas are expertly made in a wood fire oven. I love their dough which is chewy and has a great flavor. The meatballs with marinara sauce were excellent. We came back several times during our visit.

Giovanni
Christian-Immanuel C.

A small little spot on Rainier Ave in between Seattle and Renton. Parking is small if the restaurant is packed so I highly suggest just street parking. It has some dining tables as well as a small bar area but it is most definitely cozy. I recommend making reservations if you have the opportunity to. The service was great; our waitress was super friendly and helped answer all our questions. Despite a packed house, she made sure to always check in on us and make sure we were okay. The wait for our food didn't take too long either. It was our first time here so we wanted to try a little of everything. The use a wood fire method to cook the pizza and it showed in the smokiness of each pizza. Our personal favorite pizza definitely had to be the Giovanni. You could taste the separation of flavors from the sauce and toppings but also taste how each piece complimented each other. The dough was on the softer side which was something we had to get used to but that didn't matter because the flavors were definitely there. While the other dishes we tried were also good, it wasn't something that screamed "come back for more" to me. Will definitely be back for the pizza. The desserts were so yummy that I didn't even get a chance to take a picture. The Cannoli is definitely the must try but make sure to order it early or ask before your meal to make sure they don't run out because they definitely do run out (we came back the next day to order some to-go since they ran out the night prior).

A delicious pesto calzone with the brick oven in the background .     The atmosphere in here is wonderful!

We go there all the time! One of our favorite places for authentic Italian food. And with Peroni beer on tap..... the atmosphere is wonderful!

Cannelloni di Magro
Feven W.

I finally ordered something other than a pizza and a salad. I had the Cannelloni di Magro with a Caesar Salad. The Cannelloni was filled with a thick amount of cheese and spinach that was very flavorful. Delicious and tasty overall. This is a great place to dine in or get it to go.

Chelsea R.

We moved, came back, and came here our first night back in Renton. Did not disappoint. I LOVE the red pepper infused oil they leave in the table. Delicious! We tried the meatballs as an appetizer which were out of this world amazing! And we got our typical pizza. Always love this place.

Pizzeria
Ratish K.

One word -Sorprendente! Grazie for bringing Italy closer to our home! Amazing food, felt like we were in Italy and enjoying the atmosphere and the food. I started with Eggplant parmigiana which was a delicious eggplant with an amazing marinara sauce and cheese. We had the Mediterranean Pizza with chicken which was delicious, soft , thin crust with basil, olives and felt like we were back in Italy. For desserts, we had Spumoni which was a mix of chocolate, cherry and pistachio ice cream . The cherry was overpowering the rest of the flavors. The Cannoli was another masterpiece! What a delicious ricotta cheese filling. Super friendly staff and an Italian ambience!

Mussels
Yarn Y.

Ordered a margarita and the muscles to my hotel room The pizza arrived quite cold which was a bummer b/c I could see the ingredients are of high quality . The tomato sauce felt like it was made out of fresh tomatoes . 4/5 The mussels were also ok - the sauce could use some more thickness and some more garlic . 3.5/5 All together i enjoyed dinner and will order from them again (if I get the chance )

Ingredients were super tasty- love the Coro pepperoni and the chanterelle mushrooms pizza. The kale salad was simple yet tasty with Parmesan and pine nuts. The meat balls were great and the chocolate dessert that comes with the SRW was yummy- rich chocolate mousse-like cream in a little cup. The jellyfish brewing lake beer was the perfect pairing with pizza. It was light with a hint of citrus? Would love to see more Coro pepperoni flavors like the lemongrass or orange cardamom or mole. Service was great and very attentive. The ambiance was perfect for a dinner night out. Not too quiet nor loud under dimmed lighting with touches of industrial feel yet quite sophisticated. Would return with family or co workers.

The restaurant is on a busy corner in downtown Seattle. Lots of seating, attached to the bakery. Service was great off the bat. Our server was attentive and friendly. We shared a few appetizers, carrots and burrata, and the Brussels ceasar salad. The carrots and burrata was delicious- interesting combo but worked so well. Brussels Caesar-- not our favorite. The Brussels were really crunchy, too crunchy. The cocktail I had with gin and rosemary- perfection. We all had two pepperoni pizzas and two of us ordered the meatballs with focaccia. Hands down some of the best meatballs I've had. The sauce was phenomenal. Still dreaming of those! Pizza was also great. Overall- great meal, we will all definitely be back.

Karin has taken care of us countless times, whether it's a quiet Monday or an absolutely packed one due to the events at the town hall across the street, and they have always been warm, patient, and accommodating. I actually celebrated my birthday here because it's one of my favorite spots. I am part of the large group that one of the recent negative reviews is referring to. It happened immediately after the USA FIFA match, and the restaurant was the busiest I've ever seen it. Despite that, Karin still went out of their way to accommodate our requests that normally wouldn't be possible due to the rush, including trying to help with separate tabs when they'd already explained that large groups would likely need to stay on one check. As for things like grabbing water, silverware, plates, or chili flakes...our table had already gotten those before a majority of the group arrived. It's a casual pizzeria, on one of their busiest days ever. Setting and cleaning up the table (especially when seated outside) is not a problem for our group as we do it every week. Which is why it's upsetting that we opened our spot to someone that left such a nasty review. What stood out to me wasn't poor service. It's that despite how overwhelming it must have been to work post-FIFA, Karin was able to take orders, bartend, serve food, and close out checks with professionalism. Sometimes no matter how much effort someone puts in, not everyone leaves happy. The pizza is fantastic! I love showing up every week and trying what new slice they have come up with (in the year that I've been coming here there legit hasn't been a repeat). The atmosphere is great and the staff, especially Karin, have earned our loyalty over the past year. We'll absolutely continue coming back.

The crust has that perfect balance of chewy and crisp, and the toppings are generous without turning the slice into a mess. You can tell they actually care about what goes out of the kitchen. I came in curious and left already planning my next visit. If you're a pizza person, this place belongs on your list - and if you like a little kick, the Jalapeño Face is the one to get.

I don't know if I've ever seen larger pizza than this place. Larger doesn't always equate to…read morebetter, but I just have to start by mentioning the size - it's really something to behold. A slice is literally too long to eat with your hands. You need to eat the first part with a fork and knife before it's even holdable. I have had bigger slices before - but never a full, non-takeout, pizza this big. It's 20 inches in diameter. We had two pizzas - where each one was split into two different kinds of pizza - so four in total. Cool that they allow you to do that, but it does cost more than having just a singular pizza all of the same type. The slices were double cut to make sharing easier. The only one that I liked was the jalapeno face pizza, which managed to achieve a facsimile of a jalapeno popper pretty well. The cream cheese here really stood out; it's not something you see on pizza very often at all, but it really worked here. The pineapple was also awesome. It was missing some heat from the jalapenos though - there could've been a lot more of them. This one was the only pizza that was actually cooked to a good level on the underside, and held its shape pretty well. It had some firmness when biting into it. Unfortunately, the other three half-pizzas were undercooked and floppy. The underside was practically a light brown rather than the dark brown / bordering on black you need to see for this style. If the attempt here is NY-style pizza, it's just a pathetic excuse for the most part. The weight of the toppings just collapsing in the dough is not what you want to see. The indian-style pizza just didn't work - mint chutney, onions, and bell peppers just tastes odd on a pizza. With the truffle pizza, the amount of potatoes was just way too excessive, and there was very little actual truffle flavor. The red sauce pizza didn't have anything wrong with the toppings, but again suffered from the lack of charring I mentioned earlier. You do get a lot of food for the pizzas. I'd say for 5 people - one full pizza and one half pizza should be enough - around 25 per person or so. At least the price is reasonable. Overall, the novelty of the size and odd flavors is cool in theory, but the quality is simply not there. 6/10

The oysters were the main draw for me, and they were totally worth the visit. Old Stove serves them with a savory watermelon sauce in addition to a traditional cocktail sauce--eaten together, it's a flavor explosion that I can't quite describe. We also enjoyed the garlic everything fries, which were delicious! We just had to try a flight to sample the brews. There are some really good beers available here, especially the Belgian blonde, citra pale ale, and the stout. I did not really care for the seasonal sour (grapefruit, I think)--to me, it just tasted like a sour and nothing more, but someone with more interest in sour beers would probably enjoy it just fine. Despite the busy night, our server checked on us regularly and was very personable, stopping to chat with us about the local sports scene. There's plenty to look at, inside and out. If you can snag a seat outside, you'll get to enjoy the waterfront. Inside, the decor is industrial but fun. Not sure if this runs all the time, but when we were there, the tvs were playing vintage beer ads, which was quite fun. They also sell some pretty good t-shirt designs.
