• Italian • Kent
Booked 12 times today
For more than 20 years, Paolo’s has been bringing the taste of Italy to Kent. Paul Raftis founded the restaurant after growing up learning to cook along side his mother, Darlene Raftis. He enjoys the open kitchen he can chat with guests as he works. He never tires of hearing "It smells so good in here!" As a marathoner, he is living proof that that you can eat Italian and be healthy. In fact, one of his signature dishes, "Fettucine Paolo" was featured in Runner's World magazine. "It's one of the dishes I developed, it has no cream in it, no butter." It's a delicious pasta dish that utilizes olive oil, garlic, chicken stock, garlic, balsamic vinegar, sundried tomatoes, artichokes, and chicken. So whether it's bruschetta, cioppino, pizza, or spaghetti and meatballs, Paul thanks each of you for choosing to dine here.

    I told our waiters, who was FANTASTIC, that after going to many restaurants on Queen Anne over the past 30 years, that Grappa is one of the only ones that I can say has continued to trend upwards in Service, Quality of Food and consistency. While almost all others up here have become stagnant in those areas, Grappa has become a Go-To restaurant.

    One of our favorite restaurants! Absolutely everything on the menu is delicious! Especially the cocktails and small plates, but the noodle dishes and rice bowls are amazing as well. Really unique fusion items that blow our mind! You can't go wrong!

    We had a perfect dining experience from start to finish! Our appetizers, main course, drinks and desserts were beyond delicious! All of the flavors popped! Service was impeccable, even though the restaurant was at capacity. The atmosphere was lively at the bar and throughout the entire space, even in the newest area that recently opened. We are looking forward to our next visit!
