I recently had the pleasure of celebrating my anniversary dinner at this establishment just last week. The courtyard seating truly captivated me with its exquisite beauty, providing a delightful and romantic atmosphere. The service we received was both friendly and attentive, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. However, when it came to the food, it seemed to vary depending on what you ordered. Regrettably, my dish lacked distinctive taste and fell short of expectations. Additionally, our appetizer was excessively sour, while the wine we selected was merely satisfactory and it was $90 for the bottle. On a positive note, my partner expressed satisfaction with his chosen dish, finding it quite enjoyable. It appears that the culinary experience here can be a hit or miss, depending on your selection.

Absolutely delicious food and exceptional service. The host kindly worked us in and the atmosphere was wonderful. The whole staff was so kind and went above and beyond with recommendations and making sure we were taken care of. I had the ravioli which was delicious and the bruschetta was wonderful. Great way to start our trip to Seattle, I can’t recommend it more!

Every single dish we got was amazing I don’t think you can go wrong here. Very well portioned as well. Vibe was amazing, summer in the courtyard was a very romantic vibe. The staff was probably the friendliest ever but it was a little slow so just prepare to be there for a while if you want 3 courses. Highly recommend

Really cute place for a date night! My husband and I went on our anniversary and it was a very romantic date night. The food is also great! Their main menu is not changed for 29 years!! My husband ordered a seafood squid ink linguini and I ordered their special called lobster ravioli. The ravioli is sooooo good!

I went here for the first time on February 19, 2023. I made a last minute trip from Vancouver for the long weekend. I did not book a reservation for dinner anywhere but happened to call this place and luckily get in. They told us if our party of 4 arrived before 8:45pm they would be able to take us; the fact that they closed at 9 said a lot! I absolutely loved my experience here. The inside and outside decor of the restaurant is beautiful. Our server Raymundo (I believe that was his name) was so kind and patient with us. We do not eat Italian food often so we were a bit confused on what to order. He did not rush us during our time there. I often feel like servers will rush you at dinner if you are new and need a bit more time with the menu, but this was not the case here. The food was very good! It was just the right amount of portion, where I did not have to take any home and did not feel overly full after eating. I will definitely be back when I am in Seattle next as there are so many delicious food items to choose from!

I found my favorite pasta place! As someone who rarely visits Italian restaurants due to gluten intolerances, I took a chance with this place and do not regret one bit. The linguini nere Al Salmone might be the best pasta I’ve ever had, it had the perfect balance of creaminess but not too heavy, and the squid ink is barely detectable. The ravioli’s creamy sauce was delicious. The risotto was also good, a little too tomatoey but a solid 7.5/10. We also got the bruschetta and garlic bread which paired really nicely with the balsamic olive oil that they serve.

It was a great experience for me at La Fontana Siciliana. the ambience is sweet and I love the Sicilian vibes. The server was friendly and the manager/owner was friendly too. Little disappointed with garlic bread which was literally garlic powder on bread otherwise the food was good. Pollo Marsala is surely recommended. They have a good collection of Sicilian wines. It’s more on the expensive end and fine dining experience end. Also downtown parking adds some cost. Overall a great experience.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at La Fontana! When we walked in, we were greeted from the staff and sat at a table quickly. The atmosphere here is super cozy and inviting, with cute decor. I wanted to write this review mostly to commend our server, Raymund, for his recommendations and excellent service. 10/10 service from him, thank you!!!
