Gianfranco Ristorante Italiano

Ok when I tell you I was surprised to find an authentic Italian restaurant I mean it. This place has the best meatballs I have tasted in Washington state to date. And just after spending time in Massachusetts and tasting authentic Italian food there this place is on point. Get in here and get you some food. The deserts look amazing. We were too full to try but I promise we will be back .

This is really a solid 5 star restaurant for food, service and atmosphere! Food is great and reasonably priced. Large portions, great flavor. We had the crab and lobster ravioli and the halibut pasta. Service is excellent and the restaurant and town make it a great experience. We loved it!

This place is just lovely! The waitress so kind and attentive. They had many options for my husband who is gluten free. Might I add, it was the best gluten free noodles we have ever had! Our food was hot and delicious. We highly recommend this to anyone and everyone. I’ve never been a fan of tiramisu, but this place has changed me. That cream was so fresh and all the flavors were there! Wow this place is a gem!

The minute I walked in, you had me at H E L L O! This place was recommended by a friend and WOW—seriously, you won’t be disappointed. The portion sizes are next-level, like Thanksgiving-on-a-plate kind of generous. Come to Gianfranco hungry! ☺️✨💪 My TINI (martini) 🍸was perfect. The basket of bread? Amazing—though you may want to pass just to save room. We ordered a fantastic bottle of Cab Sav and jumped straight into dinner. ⬇️ Ken ordered these crazy meatballs (you have to see them to believe it), and I went for the prawns. So much food, and not a single shortcut on flavor. In the end, we left full, happy, and totally ready for a nap. Just like Thanksgiving… yet, no dishes! PERFECTO! ❤️❗

I visited this restaurant because of the high reviews, and while the atmosphere is nice and cozy for a date, the food was a major disappointment. Most importantly, I became mildly ill after my meal. My dish should not have contained raw or undercooked ingredients, so I don’t know why I would be sick, yet I was . The flavors were also lacking. My spouse’s dish was bland and "milky” flavored, my chicken was completely unseasoned, and the potatoes had same milky taste as well. Pizza was quite good, I would actually recommend that if you choose to go there. However the he cappuccino was not that good and only half-filled. While dessert was good, the high prices are not justified by the low food quality. Having dined at many authentic Italian restaurants in Washington, I can say this is not on
