Food: 9/10

The chef is a true star.

My brother-in-law always says, “If you can read, you can cook.”
And yes, technically, that’s true.
But reading a recipe isn’t the same as caring.

To some, it’s just noodles and cream sauce.
Here, it felt like something more, like each dish was being prepared for his grandmother’s pointed, loving, unforgiving review.

This wasn’t someone following instructions.
This was someone using a kind of kitchen magic, weaving flavors together with the steady hands of a man who knows family is at the table…and that love is measured in every bite.

What caught me off guard were three things.

First, his daughter she, didn’t just take the order she leaned in. She suggested a little more cheese, not as an upsell, but an elevation.

Second, she shared the secret handshake: recommending add just a touch of their chile oil sauce. Not enough to overpower, just enough to wake everything up.

And then came the moment.
That burst of fresh mushroom, earthy, alive, set against the rich, complementary cheese and cream sauce. It wasn’t heavy. It was balanced. The heat from the oil lingered just long enough before the cream folded it back in.

There’s a difference between making food and making something you’d proudly set in front of the people who raised you.

This felt five levels beyond reading.
This felt personal.

Excellent service, excellent food, excellent drinks.
Our server ( short haired female) was on top of things. The pizza was perfect, crust and all. It was exactly what we were looking for on our vacation. We only wish we had one of these gems back home!

Came across this restaurant on yelp and decided to stop in for a business trip while traveling with my colleagues and was appalled at this atrocious experience.
To start, as they say “first impressions are everything” & wow, upon arrival Lindsey the owner sat us and it took about 15 minutes to approach us, we noticed they were completely understaffed but decided to give it a chance.
Our server (the owner) never gave us a smile or any ounce of friendliness while taking our order, in fact she was short abrasive and offensive with her facial gestures, not even allowing each person to finish their order before moving on to the next; nevertheless we ordered our food and awaited our drinks.
25 minutes later one of our items (tagliatelle with tomato sauce no sausage) was served, she didn’t stop to ask if we wanted Parmesan or any accompaniment, only the rest of your food will be out in a few minutes….
15 minutes later the rest of our food arrived while our pasta went cold and EVERYTHING was Completely awful and underwhelming.
Our wood fired pizza was burnt on top and soggy on the bottle and it was all entirely overpriced. Having lived in Italy, I can definitely vouch and say this was a sad and painful attempt at “authentic Italian food”.
The only redeeming factor would normally be it’s family owned and operated but considering the offensive service we received from the owner herself I am disgusted with the entire experience.
Our bill was about $300 for our table we asked for one item, a soup to he returned and although untouched were still charged.
Extremely upsetting.
Enter at your own risk.

Wonderful food, Out of all the four Italian restaurants I’ve been to, on 152and 153rd St, this place has the best Italian food, Service was good, The food though was great.
Update: they are now open for dine in food is always great. Can’t wait to try more of their dinner Menu and dessert menu.

I came to ODP second time. The first time I came, I ate pizza and dessert. It was a very good pizza and service. The inside of the store has a calm atmosphere and the customer base is good and comfortable.
I came to eat pizza again, but I was intrigued when I saw the special menu on the table, so I ordered prawn bisque soup, Farfalle paste with spinach pesto & burrata cheese. Rock fish in white wine with lemon & capers. Served with a vegetable. I liked fish meal and pasta was plain taste. There are so many things on the menu that I want to try, it’s hard to choose. I look forward to the next time.

A small place you might accidentally drive by and miss it, but don’t! Amazing Italian food. We sat outdoors and enjoyed the evening sun. Nothing fancy in terms of decor or presentation, but the food is excellent. The service was good but not great; I had to go find the server to order our appetizer. Overall a really nice experience and the food was great. I’ll happily return again!

So far this is my favorite place in Burien to get Italian food. They have a wood fired oven which means their pizzas are spectacular and come out perfectly. They have so many options there has to be some thing on the menu for everyone. We had a bunch of dishes including the shrimp, Salad and two pizzas. And everything was pretty delicious and traveled well as we had takeout. Can’t wait to go back and try more!

A lovely little local place. Service was fairly prompt and while the food was overall very good, it was just a bit over-rich. It’s a nice selection, though, and we’ll be going back again for sure.

I used to like this place and haven’t been in awhile, but it seems to have lost its way. Pasta was way overcooked and despite the description of a white wine, garlic, and lemon sauce all I could taste was salt. I had to ask for some lemon to cut the monotone flavor. They also now pass on a 3% fee to use a credit card, which should be a cost of doing business or maybe “hidden” in the already high prices. Service wasn’t great either. I wouldn’t recommend and I won’t be going back again.

In response to your response…I didn’t get the feeling that you would be gracious with any feedback in the moment given the general demeanor of staff. But receiving/accepting honest reviews about the food and service definitely is part of doing business. I’m sorry, but it just wasn’t a good experience overall.

I hadn’t been since a late weekend lunch years ago. I thought it was expensive… and it sort of is for one person. Portions lean towards the generous and rich, like Italians tend to do. Imagine.
Did the same thing, heavy late lunch, more like Happy Hour on a nice sunny day.
I am impressed!
Pizza al Tonno was fabulous.
Tagliatelle panna e funghi was decadent.
Shared these two with my wife, and we have leftovers. NOt sure how tuna will fare in the next reheating, but it is worth it. Given
that fish’s habit, just chill it again, and on the even # re-heats the fishy aroma and flavors are subdued.
Sorry I didn’t take any photos.
