With how the sun was setting it got a little bright and toasty but it moved on very quickly. The service was super. The bartender realized we were still holding our bags when the pizza came out and didn't want grease to get on them. She actually came out to show us there were hooks which was very kind. It was tricky to find but they're there! Since we came during the dinner rush, we were told the pizza would take some time. I appreciated the heads up before ordering. I ordered a custom pizza and it was scrumptious. I really liked the texture of the dough which was nice and chewy. It was a well made pie with a great ratio between the toppings, sauce, and dough.

He said it was the best pizza he's ever had including at the Hill in St. Louis. He was also impressed with the Belle Salad they serve as part of the panini lunch special I ordered. It's nice bringing up the next generation of foodies giving them examples of great food. He enjoyed the galato, too. It was a nice experiene for both of us. I told him it was one of my favorite restaurants in Gig Harbor and now he can understand why I'm such a big fan of Fondi. I look forward to my next visit which will most likely be next week.

Well, there are the obvious... well selected ingredients (Adams wild mushrooms), a quaint view of Gig Harbor, etc etc But let's get back to the Averages The team working here would put any to shame. Between taking orders promptly and delivering food quickly, that is quite frankly amazing (so good we ordered the second pizza....) They are joking, tossing pizza, being the friends you wish you had. This place is a class act. A case study in great teamwork that just happens to serve amazing pizza. Apparently, I'm new here, because lots of people know this as they keep stoking that fire.

To be honest, it was probably one of the worst salads I've had in a long time. The dressing was very bland and I asked for no hard boiled egg and it came out with it on. I had already picked it off in the photo. I asked for chicken (+$3) and it seemed like it was that premade bagged chicken. The tomatoes were also not good. I ate maybe 1/3 of it. If I had gotten a pizza myself I'm sure my review would have been a 5 but the salad really ruined it for me. The staff were great though! Very friendly and attentive.

We usually try to eat here whenever we're visiting the gorgeous place called Gig Harbor, and yet, this Yelp elite had not reviewed it before. The food is out of this world excellent! In fact, it's just like being in Naples or Gaeta, etc. Chef Michele "Mike" Simone and his wife, Azusa run a tight ship here, and it reflects not only in the food but also in how the place is usually packed with families and locals and tourists. Simone also comes out often and goes from table to table, talking to his happy customers and checking in... it is a joy to see and makes it feel homey. The place is decorated salon-style with tons of Italian wall hangings, sail ships, giant spoons, etc.; it's as Italian as Italian can get! The staff is friendly and efficient, and there's ample free parking at both restaurant and street. There's also outdoor sitting. I had the eggplant parmesan, which was enormous in size and super tasty. There's also a kids menu (not on the main printed menu) and those portions are also gigantic! Love Italian food? You'll wanna visit this place! Reservations recommended!

You can tell they put some thought into their specialty combinations rather than just sticking to the basics. I also loved the cocktail list!

Definitely a place I'd come back to for pizza and cocktails! #Tacomafoodieontheloose

He was nice enough to let us show our friends the space., But was already sweeping and closing, which, as a restaurant owner and Winebar owner, I can attest is a huge no-no. All winter we would drop in on Monday night after concert often as late as 9:45 with no to few other customers in the room and be warmly greeted and sold a couple of glasses of wine just so that we could chill a little bit but, we never stay very long. And the girls were always very welcome and friendly.. But after maybe 25 visits, we get this guy, in a room packed with people, not that late, not friendly, not sorry, so sadly we left, but did show our friends the beautiful patio with the spectacular steady water and full moon. We will be back, although it's been a long time now thanks to that guy, and look forward to giving a five star review because this place really is special and doesn't even need our good review because they are busy busy busy in a town with absolutely nothing going on. (We moved to Gig Harbor to put the gig in Gig Harbor, and we still will. But now that Anthony's has purchased the Tides Tavern, the Tides is open until 10 and is welcoming and friendly to people who show up all the way until 10 because they're good business people. Restaurant people, club owners, like us will never be the last people to leave so are very considerate about coming in late to a place.) .

Apps: the stuffed mushrooms were absolutely delicious. It had a little kick to it as well. The bruschetta (i think) was also super yummy. The mains: the chopped salad was awesome! I flew home the next day and took some in a zip lock bag for dinner later. The salad had garbonzo beans, black Olives, and it was just exceptional! The meat balls were huge and fabulous. The risotto was the best risotto I have ever tasted! I am not a fan of risotto and I had some and took some back home to LA. The ravioli, the green beans and the lasagna was also very good. I wish I transferred my food to another plate before they had to pack up their plates and silverware. It would have been a great midnight snack. The fellas that came to set up was very friendly and helped drying every thing off when we got rained on. Over all my friends are happily eating the leftovers in their freezer.

Caesar salad very good with perfect amount of dressing and very fresh, crisp romaine lettuce. Mussels vongole saltate was very good with sauce mixed with juice naturally blended wonderfully. Octopus carpaccio was okay but had better. Octopus wasnt marinated enough amd was cut too thinky. Pesto gnocchi & Alfredo macalusso were cooked perfectly but both were quite salty. Ambaince is quite quaint overall. We sat outside on a nice weather day but table was on a slant and very small. Cant fit more than two entres in table so kinda had to hurry up and finish our appetizers rather quickly to make space. Service could be better with more attention. Waitress only came to us 4 times bringing our menu, to take order, ask if we wanted dessert and lastly our receipt.

This is the definition of Dominos, by far the best Pizza place in the state maybe the country, there has been a few times that an order was not up to par, but they never gave any lip for corrections. But today of all days, one pizza was slightly overcooked, the rest of the order was placed on the warmer while they remade it. But what made today so different that I needed to immediately make this 5 star review? Alex, (who made the pizza and cashed me out at the register) he asked me what he could do better. Why is this important? It shows that they not only enjoy their job, and enjoy making customers happy, but that they care about the quality of their services and want returning faces. So if you're in need of pizza, or food because the other places around here close early. STOP, this is the place to go
