Had a lovely dinner with colleagues tonight. I ordered the chicken Parmesan, which was lovely. The marinara sauce was robust and seasoned to perfection. Also had some of the best French onion soup I have had in my entire life, no exaggeration. Service was attentive and pleasant. Will absolutely be back.

We came here after talking to some folks at the Seattle Wedding Expo while looking for vendors. We ordered the seasonal ravioli and the meatball appetizer, along with some Silver City Tropic Haze IPAs. The two of us got sat in kind of a fishbowl between a few different families, so the mood was definitely more of an Olive Garden than a date night. Service was fast and our server was personable, pleasant, and attentive.
The meatball appetizer's texture was spongy and watery - kind of like the frozen kind, and was pretty dang flavorless. The sauce itself was fairly thin and vaguely tomato flavored as well. You get four of them too, about the size of a golf ball, and in my opinion not worth the $10. The seasonal ravioli was better, I believe it had some kind of lamb in it (it wasn't beef and I spaced out when the server told me) which was really subtle and a nice touch.
The meat sauce was thick, with sausages. It was a little zippy which unfortunately overpowered some of the delicate flavors, but, was a pretty decent dinner. Portion size was spot on too. Total was ~$60 for two entrees, an appetizer, and two beers.

Loved the French onion soup. The pasta dishes were yummy. I found the seasonal pear salad bland, but the tiramisu and cobbler are fabulous.

2nd time here after waiting a long time to come back from my first experience, hoping things would be better this time around. Well, they weren't. I always give at least two visits to any venue if the first one was off. No change from my first visit. I'm only giving Two stars on my review because my server was attentive. I came for happy hour and sat in the bar. Sat down quickly as it's open seating in the bar.
I'm a whiskey guy and their selection wasn't great for starters. Had a Bulleit neat and it was ok. Not a great pour, maybe just over one ounce. Asked about what was on tap and was told only blue moon.so I ordered a Manny's because that's what I saw. I know.my point exactly. Ordered the Zucchini Crisps. Nice color and crunch on the outside.that's it. Inside literally was raw zucchini. not even warm.
The cucumber dill sauce has zero flavor and was grainy/gritty. I asked for salt for the crisps as they were bland. Ate about half of them and gave up on them. Not impressed at all by this place. Definitely not a fan.

I have tried Mama Stortini's when they used to have it at Northgate Mall. They have closed it down for several years now. I didn't know there were others. So I was very happy to have found this one in Kent. Service was awesome! Our waitress was so nice and friendly. Food was great. My favorite is there zucchini crisps! The only dish we didn't like was the dessert (upside down pineapple cake). It was horrible. It was microwaved for too long, gritty texture and not much flavor. If this was closer to my home I would come back. But since it's pretty far, I wouldn't make a trip just for it.

My go to lunch spot. About once a month. Always get a cup of French Onion soup and the Prime Rib dip.
