Bambino’s Pizzeria Review - Belltown - Seattle - The Infatuation

"Bambino’s wins the award for the best Seattle pizza that your friends probably aren’t talking about - it’s a sleepy spot even though it’s located on a busy Belltown corner. You might notice on the menu that you need to specify if you want your crust to be “light,” because they’re very serious about charring the bottom of each pie. Do not request this light option - go dark. The result is excellent, especially in the form of a margherita with buffalo mozzarella so creamy it turns the sauce pink. photo credit: Chona Kasinger" - Aimee Rizzo

My experience here was pretty good I had to wait a little while to be acknowledged after I seated my self in the bar and later grabbed my own menu. I think that's because they really seem to be understaffed I only saw one waitress covering most of the restaurants and also the bar area , so she did the best she could. She had a good attitude and took it all in her stride. Pizza was average I had a margarita pizza it had plenty of cheese but not enough basil, the sauce was tasty.

I went in there at 3 p.m., and the environment was pretty chill and relaxed. I could see only 2 staff members. The server never made eye contact whenever I called him, so i had to play a guessing game of him hearing me. The Calorosa Pizza I ordered tasted weird and smelled funky. I ate only 1 of the 4 slices. The service was okayish. Skeptical to go here again. The menu also had items which they no longer offered.

Even when compared to the top pizza places in Rome, this Bambinos is easily in the top 5 pizza I've ever had. Hand down. Everyone should try it at least once.

I had high hopes for Bambino’s, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the expectations. The salad was decent — fresh enough to earn a 3/5 — but the pizza was underwhelming at best, closer to 2/5 in terms of flavor and texture. To make matters worse, the server accidentally spilled my drink, and half of it ended up in my lap. There was no apology, no offer of napkins, and not even a refill — just an awkward moment and poor service that left a lasting impression (literally and figuratively).

The best pizza, and you can get half and half of another pizza. Variety of beers, etc. I loved it. Near Needle Space

We had a terrible experience here. When we walked in, we were told by the one person working there that it was just him. Surely the service and quality of the food reflected it - both terrible. Food - we ordered the Genovese pizza (pesto based)… crust was under done and unpleasantly chewy. I actually ended up getting sick back at my hotel afterwards. Service - we waited for about 15min before our order was taken. We waited another hour after our order was taken to get our food. We’re from out of town and was very disappointed. We will not be back the next time we’re back in Seattle.

Although the food was pretty good, and the brick oven fired pizzas were tasty, I would not go here again. The place is very small (not a negative), but even with no one else there, our service was super slow. It was a very hot day and for some reason they had no air conditioning. Prices were pretty high, just not worth the cost and wait.

The service was a little slow the day we went, but we weren’t in a hurry and there were only two people working on a Saturday- so it wasn’t a huge deal. The food was delicious. Authentic pepperoni, real mozzarella and fresh basil. Not to mention they don’t overload with sauce like some places, and it’s not super acidic either. We enjoyed the pizza and the atmosphere and will definitely go back.

Despite going to Seattle Center for shows regularly, this is our first visit to Bambino's Pizzeria. I always have a fear that places too near SC are tourist traps. The reviews are rather random with a love-it or hate-it pendulum. We had a good overall experience. The restaurant itself is in an older building. What we can see looked respectable enough, although my husband did advise me to skip the bathroom. Our server is enthusiastic and eager; he bought us menu, water, food expeditiously. After reading the reviews, we kept our orders to entrees only. Street parking only. Family friendly. The Food: Primavera pizza, 10", $18 - 4 Stars Menu: Tomato Sauce, Fresh Mozzarella, Onions, Peppers, Mushrooms, Olives, Tomatoes The menu specifically says they bake their pizzas to 'dark'. When the pizza arrived, it just looks normal to me. I have seen much, much darker (i.e. too dark). The pizza is fully loaded with lots of veggies. The center did get soggy, so it didn't pass the New York test, if you know that rule. It is possible this will happen only for the veggie pizza. The crust has a fantastic chew. I regularly don't eat the crust, but I did with this one. The sauce could use a wee bit more herbs, seasonings. I added pepper flakes to compensate. Overall, I am sufficiently satisfied. Pancrazio calzoni, $16 - 4 Stars Menu: Italian Sausage, Mushrooms The calzone arrived at our table perfectly puffy, as it should be. It is a good size for one person. The inside is well stuffed. The sausage adds more flavor than the veggies; the sauce didn't seem under-flavored in the calzone. My hubby was happy with it, though he managed to find the appetite to eat one big slice of my pizza, too. Honestly, for their location and proximity to Seattle Center, I thought their prices and amount of food are very reasonable and perfectly good for locals to eat here. This explains why there were at least two tables of regulars who chatted with the staff and left with 'see you next time'. We can see ourselves returning for a quick meal before a show, too.

We stopped in for an afternoon snack so take this with a grain of salt. We ordered the breadsticks and Calorosa pizza. Breadsticks are rolled up pizza doughs, which is a fun concept but they're actually just extremely bland. The cold marinara has some seasoning but the contrast of freezing cold tomato sauce and steaming hot dough is off-putting. My friends said that the pizza was good, a bit greasy, but hot and tasty. Seems like a sporty, casual hipster place. Not super busy at 3pm, they also have a happy hour around 4pm so maybe it picks up more in the evening. We were the only patrons in the restaurant. Service was quick and attentive, but kept pressuring us to order more food since we got a small pizza to share. It was a little awkward.

In a neighborhood full of 21+ restaurants this place is family friendly. The service was meh. They weren't busy but it took a long time for us to get drinks and refills. The breadsticks - zero stars. They have no flavor, no garlic or butter. Just dry bread. The marinara sauce is different. I can't put my finger on it but none of us liked it. The pizza - 3 stars. The sauce on the pizza is different than the sauce for the breadsticks and I'm really glad it was. They cook their pizza with dark crust so if you like it light you have to tell them.

We came as a party of 2 on Pride Sunday! This was a great way to beat the heat. It was slammed, but we still enjoyed great service. We had their caesar salad and split a 10 inch Capricciosa pizza. I absolutely love the quality of their food-they wood fired the crust and the ingredients they used were fresh. I would love to come back for some beer.

The service and pizza were great. I had the Lazio one with the mushrooms and truffle oil, I recommend that. My stepmom got the buffala mozz one, also good. The pepperoni was extra, as my dad ordered, and let me tell you they were generous. The beer was not my favorite but that is on me and my taste, not the beers fault. Bathroom was scary, but they just need to spruce it up.

The pizza is really good quality and for a very reasonable price considering it's Seattle! The restaurant had a very relaxing atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy areas. The service was friendly and quick.

3.5 stars Love the cozy, homestyle interior with the open kitchen :) Pork belly Appetizer ($13) - Yummy - I wish the pork belly had been salted or seasoned some, though it was delicious. The breadsticks that come with it are sizeable. I asked for a side of marinara too which was just okay - it was weirdly watery whereas I think I prefer a sweeter marinara. Pepperoni Pizza (10") ($15) - So yummy! I love the kind of pepperoni that crisps up when it bakes. Polite staff.

Meh. Slow, average service. Pizza was underwhelming. Not a lot of flavor or creativity. I do not recommend the bread sticks. Literally dough and no seasoning. I'd go elsewhere.

Ambience (2/5) - very casual. However, seemed pretty dull for a Friday night. Food (2/5) - We ordered one Pesto Pizza and one All Veggies Pizza 16" shared within 6 people The quantity was pretty good. However, it lacked flavor and salt. All I could taste was bell peppers Service (2/5) - We reached by 8:15 (closes at 10). It seemed they just wanted us to leave asap, the server kept on coming and hinting us for check

The ambiance was very cute but that's where it started and ended for me! The service was fine. Granted, I came in with about 45 minutes to spare (the place I wanted to go closed early because their AC was out) so this is what I had to choose after Ubering to the area. I got breadsticks and margherita pizza (adding chicken). Unfortunately, the breadsticks were the best part of the meal. The sauce for the breadsticks was bland, and the pizza was interesting (again, I think the problem was the sauce). I've never had a margherita pizza with just one piece of basil on each slice. The flavor lacked and the sauce/cheese wouldn't stay in place. I don't think I'd return here, but their wine menu was expansive so maybe that would have changed my meal experience.

We were walking in the area and Bambino's was the only eating establishment without a line. There is a limited menu but if you want pizza or a calzone, it's worth a try. I had a meatball, pepper and onion calzone. It was cooked perfectly and looked great. The taste was good but they were light on all of the ingredients. I only had2 bites with meatball in it. Most calzones have mozzarella and ricotta but this had a moderate amount of Mozzarella. I also tried a slice of margarita pizza which was good. The waitress was pleasant. If you're in the area stop by, it's worth a try.

Decent food, cool space, and super friendly staff! The pizza crust was amazing -- fluffy on the inside with a good crunch on the outside! The sauce was pleasant and the toppings on the Calabria pizza were good and fresh (note, that this pizza is a little spicy). We also ordered the Genovese pizza and the pesto was good, but the chicken was a little on the tough/dry side. We got the hazelnut chocolate gelato for dessert and it was delicious (however of the 7 listed flavours they only had three in stock that day). Our sever was helpful and friendly, and the food came out quickly. Walking distance from Seattle centre and plenty of parking in the area! Lighting is dark and the atmosphere is rustic. Cool spot!

We arrived just before closing time and they were very nice to still let us in. We ordered a Margherita, it was very good. They are using Caputo flour for their pizza and you will feel the difference. Little prices compared to the pretentious Italian pizzerias in Seattle.

The service at this place was top notch. There were only 2 people working, but they took care of our party of 7 with ease. The food was great. We ordered 4 different pizzas and were all tasty. They don't skip out on the toppings. We will be coming back when we are in Seattle again.

The service was top notch. Sat at the bar and the bartender was very personable. The pizza was fine and the beer selection was great. Had a gelato for dessert that was pretty good. Not a bad option for a laid back drink.

Stubbled upon the heavenly gem while waiting to see the space needle. The atmosphere is cute and cozy. The staff are seriously the sweetest and very attentive. The food, OMG, the food is to die for. I had bread sticks, they were freshly baked and so soft on the inside. I also ordered a calzoni. I literally had a spiritual moment while eating this thing. Did I mention that it was huge. I couldn't even finish it. 10 out of 10 recommend.

This was the only place we could get into without a reservation or long wait. We'd put our name in at another restaurant nearby so we just needed to a seat at the bar for a while. The drinks were good and the staff were friendly and helpful. We didn't have food but the pizzas looked amazing. Can't wait to go back to try them. The beer selection was vast and listed on the large board at the end of the bar. The name of the restaurant written in gun shell casings on the bar was a bit disconcerting. But that can be overlooked for a good pizza. It's a smallish place but it didn't feel crowded.

$$ *Calabra 2.5/5 For the price ($23) not that good of pizza. it was above average quality pizza and definitely better than chains like dominoes or Pizza Hut but the sausage didn't stand out and the crust was boring

I've been going here for years since it was really close to home for quite a while. Great food--in fact, awesome calzones, pizza, and salads. Some of the best I've ever had. Friendly servers, good service, clean, and cool ambiance with the hanging baskets and clear view of the brick pizza oven almost no matter where you sit. My only constructive feedback I have is that, while certainly not always, there were some times where the servers could probably check on the tables more to see if folks need anything (and things weren't too busy at the time, either). I think dropping by just once or twice during the whole dining experience is usually not enough since people typically want refills, to order something else to go, etc.. Great otherwise!

I called to order and the guy on the phone ended up being their cook and was trying to up charge me on two pizzas for $65!!! I sent my partner down there and when the host rang it up it was only around $40 sum. The guy in the back was totally trying to get some extra cash outta of us. Make sure you double check the prices before paying!!!!

First of all, I rarely give a pizza Restauraunt a full five stars but this deserves it. The pizza crust was perfectly crisp but soft in your mouth but not too much dough. The sauce is the most important part and that was also very flavorful. Real tomatoes on the margherita pizza and basil leaves. Real mozzarella cheese and creative pizzas flavors to order from. We ordered 2 ten inch pizzas for two of us and were stuffed. The ambience was chill and there were lots of drink options. I think they might have been short staffed but everyone there was working hard to make sure we were taken care of. There was a tv and the lighting was well positioned. Was absolutely delicious pizza. I will definitely be coming back after stumbling upon this place just needing a place to eat. Definitely rivals the pizza I had in Florence Italy.

We went here after going to the Space Needle. Me and my father shared the Calorosa Pizza, and it delicious! The crust was crispy but soft and the sauce was tasty. The toppings complemented the rest of the pizza. Plus the pizza was so good, there was one slice left and we had to take it with us. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. The service was great as the employees were very nice.

We've been here prior to the pandemic. Came in today after walking around Pike Market. The restaurant was packed. We sat at the bar and was greeted by the owner. There was a great beer tap list. We ordered olives and bread stick. The olives were very tasty. There was pickled garlic in it. So good! The breadsticks were amazingly crisp outside and soft inside. We ordered the insalata Di Noci salads and the calorosa pizza with spicy sausage. Salad was good size with awesome fig vinaigrette dressing. We couldn't even finish all the food. The waiter and the owner were very attentive. We spent a wonderful night having dinner, drinking wine and watching the Mariners. Definitely coming back soon!

Amazing pizzas! Nothing like brick oven crust! The calzones are enormous and the pizzas are the perfect size. We ordered the Lazio & the Genovese. Best truffle pizza we've ever had. Service was great and you can watch the pizzas being made so it's also fun!

Cute pizzeria that's hidden from all the downtown madness. We ordered the 10" i think and it was pretty big. The crust was so soft yet crispy at the same time and was topped with strips of mozzarella instead of shredded mozzarella.

This place is consistently great. Excellent service, magnificent pizza ( hand tossed, brick oven, fresh ingredients) The beer selection is out-of-this-world!

My wife had a pepperoni calzone and a gelato for dessert - she said they were both very good. I had a small calorosa pizza and it was outstanding. The toppings include sausage, pepperoni, and bacon. The bacon was excellent and its flavor really made the pizza stand out.
