Italia Trattoria - Spokane (WA)

5 /5 Olivia C: We are here for our anniversary last year and loved it! We saw that the owners changed, and we wanted to go back and see if the experience had changed at all. I’m pleased to say that the meals were delicious, the appetizers are incredible, and we loved our desserts. Thank you Italia Trattoria for being our anniversary tradition!

1 /5 Chelsey: My husband & I had dinner here recently; we were excited to eat here again, as this is where we had dinner the night we got engaged. Unfortunately, the only good thing about this restaurant anymore is the service. Seating is crowded and uncomfortable, and the atmosphere is very loud so you can barely hold a conversation. The food did not taste like it was made in-house as the menu suggests; the quality and flavor have gone downhill significantly, and the portions are much smaller than they were back in 2015 when we last visited. Im not sure if the restaurant is under new ownership or maybe has a different head chef, but either way, we were very disappointed in our dining experience, and as a result we probably wont be back.

2 /5 Nikia Grey: Used to love this place. I raved about it to everyone! Havent been in a few months as our Sundays have been booked solid with kids sporting events. Went this morning to find out that it is under new ownership since September. We were told the recipes are the same. Well, that simply isnt true. Their homemade Italian sausage doesnt have nearly the flavor it used to. Ordered the farmers eggs which used to be a thick tomato sauce with chunks of tomato, italian sausage and white beans. Now it is a very thin, brothy, sauce. Very disappointing.

5 /5 Nate Ghering: Italia has been on my list for years but it’s definitely on the more expensive end so I hadn’t gone until last night and wow was it worth it. It’s the cutest spot right in Brownes. We sat on their delightful patio and ended up being the only people out there after the other tables left since we had a later reservation. We got the seared octopus, braised rabbit with goat cheese ravioli and carrot butter sauce, and rack of lamb with goat cheese stuffed tomatoes and garlic cream sauce. Everything was superb. And though I’m used to fine dining places giving you less and charging more, the portions were actually quite substantial. Our server was kind and attentive (without being TOO attentive). Absolutely fantastic meal.
