• Italian • Kent
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.

    We literally had the BEST experience dining here. Our waitress was new to the restaurant and to the PNW; I think it was her 5th day working there. She is originally from Florida. She gave us the BEST service. She was super personable and relatable. She consistently checked in on our, filled our water and other drinks. She was super eager to please and gave me the best waitress service I’ve ever had. I can’t remember her name but she speaks Spanish which was helpful because we had a native Spanish speaker at the table. She deserves to be recognized for her excellent service. The whole restaurant just worked in sync with eachother and the food was absolutely amazing not to mention the ambiance and views. We will be back!

    What a beautiful setting! I can’t wait to go back in the summer! But even on a rainy day, this was worth the drive. I was surprised that the didn’t have valet though. The food and service and cocktails were great. Definitely a thumbs up from me.

    Great food, nice staff, only two small complaints would be that we were seated in a noisy area when other spots were available & I’d also say that the portion size for the avocado smoked salmon toast was a little smaller than what I’d expect for the price.
