This is the last time I'll be dissapointed by Verrazano's. Spent fifty seven dollars (including tip) on two plates of shrimp scampi. The shrimp were small and few. The pasta portion was very small. The scampi sauce was not good. Both of us ate the shrimp and threw out the rest. Looks like I'll be getting the grill out tonight. Very Dissapointed. Pros: Great view Cons: Overpriced, Bad foof

This is a cool place to take a date. It is a romantic setting looking out over Puget Sound in Des Moines. It is quite an upscale place, and you can expect to pay a lot, but it is worth it, especially if you are trying to make a strong first impression. The food is an excellent mix of Italian and seafood. You will get chef prepared food that tastes great. A great place to have a bottle of wine and just enjoy the evening together. Parking can be a little difficult, especially on the weekends. You will also want to make sure you have reservations.

I've been to Verrazano's twice, once for a spiffy dinner with my husband and once for a graduation party. The food has been excellent and the view of Puget Sound spectacular but the prices were equally stunning. I recommend this for a special occasion.

I decided to try out Verrazanos last weekend and I was pleasantly surprised, first of all the view was absolutely breathtaking. I found it hard to believe that there was such a great view of Puget Sound from anywhere in Federal Way. Me and my husband both love Italian food and I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty everything was. I ordered the Pollo Involtino which was amazing. I normally don't care for dishes with cream sauces but this was not overly creamy like I would have expected. Everything about our experience was enjoyable. If you do go to Verrazanos ask for Sarah as your server. She was knowledgable about the food and wine (good wine list by the way) and she made our experience just that much better. I can't wait to go back!

Went to Verrazanos with 7 of my out-of-town colleagues and what a fabulous experience. The breathtaking sunset/sound views kept our business dinner grounded. The attentive and personable waiter who kept silent when we were chatting and made us laugh when we weren't. Everything from the extensive wine selection to Xtra, Xtra large pizzas to flavorful pastas and fresh shell fish makes this Italian gem perfect for business dinners and romantic nights out a must ! Pros: Service, Views and Food Cons: Federal Way

Never again will I return to this place. To start, the service was bad. We had to wait for someone to recognize that we were seated, my husband had to wait 10 minutes for a drink from the bar (the bar was dead) and the food was terrible. I ordered a pasta, but added prawns. The shrimp arrived as fishy as can be. I had to send it back and asked for chicken instead. The chicken seemed processed and not like a real breast.. This place is far from romantic with kids near by and the lack of privacy at the tables. I think this place needs to figure out if they are going to be a "romantic" place for and older crowd or for families. It was such an odd combination... Oh, and the prices are laughable. I'd rather go to Olive Garden. Pros: Good Wine List - This would be a good wine bar Cons: Food, Ambience, Service...etc.

Verrazano's is nice suburban italian restaurant located on Pacific Highway on the northside of Federal Way. The pasta dishes are very good and they really know how to prepare and present veal. Nice wine list and a full bar. The wait staff act as though they've been there a long time and do a superb job. With this quality there's little reason to travel to downtown Seattle. Pros: Food, wait staff, view Cons: Could afford an interior remodel
