Chianti Kirkland

"I went yesterday and the service was so disappointing. I waited 40 mins and the food never came out. At least offer some bread and butter to customers if the food is going to take THAT long. And in between that, we barely saw the server and prob refilled water once. The atmosphere is vibey tho."

"Chianti Restaurant: A Serendipitous Italian Gem in Kirkland Chianti Restaurant in Kirkland turned an ordinary evening into a delightful birthday celebration. What started as a chance encounter became a culinary journey through authentic Italian flavors and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The owner's Italian roots were evident in every detail, from the charming ambience to the carefully curated music. We ventured in during happy hour, making the experience even more enjoyable as we explored a variety of dishes at accessible prices. While Chianti can be a bit on the pricier side outside of happy hour, the quality of the food justifies every penny. The menu offers a true taste of Italy, and we indulged in dishes that left our taste buds dancing with joy. The spaghetti puttanesca and spaghetti Rosso were both exquisite, and my husband's calzone with two fried eggs was a unique and delicious surprise. The attentive service and the outstanding culinary offerings at Chianti make it a standout choice for anyone seeking an authentic Italian dining experience. If you're willing to splurge a little for quality, Chianti is well worth the visit. Our impromptu decision to dine there turned out to be one of the best birthday surprises. Grazie, Chianti, for a memorable evening filled with fantastic flavors!"

"I was there recently, and I’d go to Seattle again just to get some food in this restaurant. The atmosphere with the view on the water on a rainy day was unbelievable. Also, the food was so good I almost ate the plate it was served on. Delectable and authentically Italian! Chicken Marsala was my favorite and my server, Ana, was super nice and so attentive! For dessert we checked their cafe on the other side… the decor was unbelievable and the dessert was so delicious, I don’t regret even a single one of those thousand calories I consumed!!"

"I have never written a review before. This experience was a much needed review. We went to dinner for a birthday, the waiter was extremely rude, not even sure he smiled or said anything to us. The food itself was terrible. We ordered 6 different plates, and not 1 of us took more than a couple bites. The food was dry and very bland. On top of all this, my drink had some slime object floating in it, they finally brought us bread 25 mins later to only find a big green piece of slime in the basket of bread. I would not recommed this restaurant. I take in consideration that sometimes things happen, but our experience was not a one off. We were reading reviews as we sat there to see some of the same issues with others. It's a great location but the service and food needs some serious improvement."

"Beautiful location. Ok service. Food was delicious but not what I ordered. I ordered the Las Vegas and it was delicious. But instead of hash browns I got a side salad. While delicious it wasn't what I was craving. Overall delicious food but service could use some work."
