   Main dishes of bolognese and risotto were disappointing. We were looking forward to our anniversary dinner but found the main dishes to be too salty. Baguette was also served without being heated which was disappointing but upon request, a new loaf that was warm was provided.

   The pasta bolognese was some of the best I have ever eaten. The atmosphere was cozy and pleasant, and the music a hit for my taste. The waiter was friendly and checked in on us just the right amount of times. Portions were small --- my husband left a bit hungry and I normally have more food than I can eat, but not this time. Be sure you are aware of the 23% auto gratuity which applied to our party of 2.

   This was my 1st time dining at San Fermo after it being recommended by a good friend. For all the times I have walked past this place and never thought to peek in, I'm now upset I never did! The restaurant is adorably welcoming, and all of the staff last evening were fantastic. The food was amazingly well prepared. I can now see why the bolognese receives as much fanfare as it does. The pasta was toothsome and the sauce, meaty, rich and coated your tongue with each bite. Since we were there for a birthday, we made the difficult choice to find room for the butter cake, which was like a twinkle for adults as I jokingly called it. Moist, flavorful, and a perfect end to the night. Definitely recommend if you're in the Seattle area and love Italian, give San Fermo a visit!

   The food was fantastic! The waiter was able to help identify GF food options one the menu (no symbols). The cocktails and wine suggestions were spot on! We arrived 25 min early for our reservation (less traffic than excepted), we offered to come back later but they were able to seat us which was a nice surprise.

   Came in for a birthday celebration! They did not disappoint, our server was amazing! She was so sweet, breaking down the menu items for us! It was our first time in so didn’t really know what to expect. Small menu item due to them prioritizing quality ingredients and freshness, which I found amazing! Got a mocktail super yummy and refreshing, order the burrata app, so light and satisfying. I think once we got to the entrees, it was good but not something were I felt wowed. I debated sending back the bolganese, but they were so nice I decided it was fine. We ordered the gonocchi, and prawn pasta as well. Again, alright, but considering the price you’re paying I felt it should be something outstanding and it simply wasn’t. We were surprised by a birthday ice cream which was so sweet of them! I would def be back just to give them another try since they had such amazing service!
