    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

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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 )

    I've been a regular at Ananas for about a year, and reading some of the recent reviews honestly…read moresurprised me. 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 reason my friends and I keep coming back is the main bartender Karin, who's always so adept at managing large parties w folks coming/going, including being honest with us about if there is time to split checks or order as a table, a pretty common thing at a smaller spot. I was here after recent World Cup game and had great service (compared to the review below by Paula P)!

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. Overall, Old Stove Brewing is the perfect combo of good location, good food, and good beer. Definitely recommend a visit when in the Pike Place area!

One of the best things about life and being alive! Can you tell I am a bit of a pizza rat haha? Anyhow, I was enjoying the beautiful summer night in Seattle and was hungry around 9:30pm. A lot of places are closed already but this reliable pizza place was open. SWEET!! I walked in and lady working the counter was super nice and helpful. I got a slice of Italian supreme, which has everything. Now looking back though I wish I had gotten one of their Turkish dishes as I would have liked to try their lahmacun and read another Yelpers review and this place is supposed to have the best Turkish lahmacun in the US. Oh well, I guess I will be back! The woman heated up my slice and after a few minutes, it was ready. I took my slice and went to sit outside near Pioneer Square so I could be outside and people watch. Pizza was tasty and solid, but the crust was too dry. I have a feeling the slice wasnt the most fresh, so thats why the crust was a bit dry. But, if you know me, I do jot like soggy pizza (I mean - who does??), so a bit drier isn't too big an issue. The rest of the slice was good. Slice of pizza and a diet coke came to close to $9. Gosh things are so expensive now. They do have a special of 2 slices for $8.99 but I couldnt eat two slices. Id definitely come back here again when back in this area. Thanks for feeding me and if you need a late night spot, this is your place!

Unfortunately, the experience is consistently dampened by one of weekend bartenders. As others have mentioned, it's that taller bartender (Alex?) who repeatedly comes across as arrogant and dismissive to us; a less than desirable character trait for a bartender. It's such a pity because that is the sole reason we now lead our groups to spend their money and patronize other establishments instead. Recently we did give Diller another try, but sadly it's the same story and thus this feedback. Hospitality makes a HUGE difference. Bartending isn't just about making a good drink and expecting tips. As someone who tended bar all over Seattle for 23 years, I know how much energy and attitude shape a guest's night. When the service feels cold and passive-aggressively rude, it's hard to feel good about the experience. It's disappointing, because this place has so much potential. Hopefully management considers bringing in weekend staff whose personalities reflect the warmth and atmosphere the space deserves, there are plenty of more qualified bartenders in Seattle that would gladly fill their spot.
