For many years I've wanted to eat at this restaurant, and yesterday, my fiance surprised me by taking us there. I thought the food was very good, and so did she. Our server, Chris did an outstanding job catering to us. I very much loved the atmosphere of the building. It's extremely attractive on the inside and there is a breath taking view of Puget Sound. Next time we go there it will be my treat to her. I highly recommend this place to all who love Italian food!

Went for dinner, sat in bar, had an old fashioned with bullet rye it was delicious the cherry was not a Luxardo! had bread and butter with our drinks good bread soft in the middle with hardy crusts ( I like it that way!) butter was soft and well seasoned. Then had Truffle oil fries, allot of fries! lil light on the oil. Finally the Prosciuttina pizza. Top 3 pizza I've ever eaten! great crust not thin not thick cooked golden, Great marinara blended very well with the toppings, they were well proportioned in every bite. Overall a great experience. Had a great time the staff was awesome. It was just a little loud. Not bothersome though.

Our neighborhood go-to for a reason. My wife and I live nearby and Verrazano's has become one of those places we just keep coming back to. It's the kind of Italian restaurant that feels like a real find — upscale enough for a special evening but comfortable enough to be a regular.
I always order the spaghetti and a Caesar salad, and both are consistently excellent. The spaghetti is classic, done right, with generous portions. The Caesar is crisp and well-dressed. And don't skip the grilled garlic bread — it's incredible. Simple dishes, but that's where you really see the quality of a kitchen, and Verrazano's nails it every time.
The drinks are a highlight too. I'll usually have a Manhattan and an Old Fashioned over the course of dinner, and the bar does a great job with both. My wife rotates between a Moscow Mule and a glass of Browne's Cabernet, and she's always happy. It's a well-curated cocktail and wine program that doesn't get enough credit.
The views of Puget Sound and the Olympics from the deck are a huge bonus — especially during golden hour. Add in attentive, personable service and a warm atmosphere with white tablecloths and you've got everything you need for a great night out.
If you're in the Federal Way area and love Italian food, don't sleep on this place. Five stars.

I have been here before, but this last visit was special.
A friend wanted to take me and my fiance out to a nice place, and his preferred choice was solidly booked out. I proposed we go here ( because my last experience was also stellar ).
The staff is so friendly, very punctual ( while not being invasive, which is a huge peeve ).
I had the 14oz dry aged steak which was delicious. I nornally dont order deserts myself, but my friend insisted we get something anyway so she chose a Cannoli, and they brought an extra one for all three of us, as they are normally just sold in pairs.
Its just a gesture of kindness that really goes a long way for me.
Its a bit of an expensive upper middle class restaraunt. Probably $400 for the three of us. So while I'd like to be back more often its definitely more of a special occasion restaraunt for me.
But, should you need a nice place that isnt packed to the brim I highly recommend Verrazano's.

We have been wanting to try this place since we moved here years ago! Finally went for dinner before we move further away! Food and service was fantastic. The manager definitely cares about customer experience!

This was by far the most delicious and incredible Italian food I’ve had in my life. The service was impeccable. I truly felt like a queen, and my daughter and I were treated like absolute royalty from the moment we walked in.
A huge shoutout to our amazing server, Christina, who delivered not only phenomenal food, but a surreal customer experience. She was attentive, knew all the specials by heart, and was genuinely warm and pleasant throughout the night.
I’ll definitely be returning to this outstanding restaurant to celebrate more anniversaries and milestones, just like I did tonight. The view is stunning, the atmosphere is beautiful, and the customer service is unmatched.
Five stars all around. If you want authentic, mouth-watering Italian cuisine paired with exceptional service, look no further than Verrazano’s. 💯

Great place! Stopped on the way back from seatac. Caught the sunset and happy hour. Had so much great food. We were happy to find the warm fireplace in the lobby. Once we warmed up we sat at the bar. Everything was great. We didn't get the chicken parm but our neighbor did and it was the best I've ever seen. We really enjoyed the steak bites and the spaghetti off the happy hour menu.

I used to come to this Italian restaurant with my ex over 25 years ago, and it was such a wonderful experience to return, this time with my family. The setting is just as beautiful as I remember, with a stunning view of the Puget Sound and a lovely outdoor deck that makes for the perfect summer brunch or evening.
I had the steak filet mignon, which was cooked perfectly, and the walnut arugula salad was absolutely amazing fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. My dad got the clam chowder and steak like me. My mom got the spaghetti, and my sister got the lemon seafood pasta and of course we can’t go with out trying their tiramisu. It’s rare to find a place that holds up so well over the years, but this one truly does. It’s one of my favorite places to eat in Kent/Des Moines. The food, the view, and the memories all made for a perfect night. Highly recommend!

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful dinner.
We have been here a few times and just love the atmosphere, the service and of course the food. We started dinner off with a glass of champagne and Clams Sauté (white clams in butter broth, white wine, garlic and red chilies), Insalata Verrazanos (mixed greens, fresh Rasberry Vinaigrette, Gorgonzola crumbles and walnuts), grilled fresh bread with Parmesan, and Lobster Prawn Fettuccini in a creamy lobster sauce, topped with tomato and basil. We also have brought home fresh made shortbread crust cheesecake with Raspberry drizzle (did not get a picture). Verrazanos is the perfect place for great Italian food!

Verazanos is amazing!🍽️ Very friendly waitress and the food & drinks are top tier🔥. We ordered the “Fresh Burrata Salad” & for our meals we ordered the Steak spaghetti Tuscano & House dry aged ribeye🍽️ We’ve reserved a time in the “music room” for our valentines dinner & felt so comfortable and pleased. Live jazz music in the background and if you’re with the right person/people, consider your day/night UNMATCHABLE. 🤍
