Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Cantinetta in Bellevue offers a delightful Italian dining experience with "fantastic food and service." Though the menu is small, dishes like "pappardelle bolognese" and "zeppole" are exceptional. The cozy ambiance and attentive staff make it a "great choice for date night." However, portion sizes may be small, and noise levels can be high.

The Pappardelle alla Bolognese was very good - very tasty. Tagliatelle Carbonara was pretty ordinary according to the diner but I thought it was very good. The service was excellent, very attentive. the noise was almost unbearable until closing time when there were less people.

Fantastic evening at Cantinetta's celebrating our daughter's college graduation. One of our party had hearing issue and Scott reached prior to our dinner informing us the restaurant was moderately loud and he would do his best to arrange an optimal table for us which he did. Excellent service, cocktails (lychee martini especially tasty), and food. We will go again!

Nice food - wish there were more dishes to choose from. Little flexibility with selecting another pasta to go with an entree/sauce which is unusual for an Italian restaurant. Entrees were very small hence value for money not great. Atmosphere is always nice and our server/bus guy were great!

This was a great choice for date night. It's a pretty restaurant and the food and service are very good. I asked the host for a quiet table and got one. Portion sizes are not huge but they are acceptable for the quality level. All in all, this restaurant offers very good value and I will eat here again.

Horrible place!! I had a reservation form open table and when we came the host didnt have it at his list and was super confuced! The menu is too simple, the plates are too small, we ordered risotto and pasta. The taste was acceptable but not special. The deserts were disaster. Costco frezzed, no taste at all! Feels like you eat plastic! The server very annoying with no sanse questions or spacial when seeing me taking photos. Over all experience - that should be mine birthday party - they rouined it all! I DO NOT REMOMEND This place, just don't waste your time and money!

Food was good. The server was not very attentive, and rather short, especially once we asked to uncork a bottle we had brought.

Servers were excellent? Food was really good, wine was great! The chairs were painful-sorry. They are hard and too straight.
