queen margherita

best pizza in town and wonderful atmosphere!

this place has the best pizza in town! love the atmosphere and vibe...service was awesome and prompt. they have real italians in here so you know it's good. our favorite pizza was the dattero. amazing! just try it, trust me. overall, love, love, love qm! this is definately on our rotation of favorite restaurants along with their sister restaurant down the street, mondello. so glad to have discovered this gem!

pricey but worth it.. the wood fired oven - purported to have come from naples - is what makes this restaurant special. the thin crust pizzas we ordered were excellent. two small salads, 4 glasses of pinot grigoio, and two pizzas added up to $90, plus tip. service was ok.

authentic italian style pizza. service is great and pizza is fantastic. try the nutella pizza for dessert and the capricciosa for dinner. all the appetizer s are good too.

ats a nice-a-pizza place.. well, chefmeat, i don't work here so i will write a review. (i don't even know any of the staff!)
we arrived shortly after 3 p.m. the other day at queen margheritas.
we started with the caprese salad. it was very good, lots of balsamic/gorgonzola dressing and pecans and tomatos.
we had the funghi pizza ($14.00/16' round) and added the speck (ham) and the buffalo mozzarella ($3.00 extra). the speck was a bit tough and the buffalo mozzarella was devine. nice, crispy, thin crust too.
they have a large selection of reasonably priced wine and beer.
all the pizzas are cooked in a wood fired oven made in italy.
the service was good as we were the only customers at that time of day.
the place itself is quite beautiful. whoever designed the decor for the restaurant did a great job.in addition to table seating you can sit at the bar and watch the action in the kitchen .
on nice days they open the sliding doors so the whole dining experience becomes an alfresco afair.
there was only one thing about the whole experience at queen margherita that bothered me.
happy hour is from 3-5 p.m. daily but we received no happy hour menu and were not told what the happy hour specials were by our server.
if you go by metro bus, the #31 or the #24 gets you closest.

the caputo flour, silk to the touch, is imported from italy. pies are carefully handcrafted, dispatched to the wood-burning oven, and then pulled after quick-cooking. there are many varieties on the menu. recently, i sampled the queen margherita, simple yet elegant with its buffalo mozzarella, san marzano tomato sauce, fresh basil, and extra-virgin olive oil. the puttanesca pleased me with its briny and spicy flavors from capers, olives, and chili flakes. there's even a dessert pizza di nutella with a little salt spiking the chocolate hazelnut spread. most intriguing, though, was the dattero, delicious with its dates, gorgonzola, prosciutto crudo, fresh mozzarella, and a drizzle of balsamic reduction. so what does queen margherita's dattero pizza teach us about sex? it's all about finding the delight of dates. maybe you'v

review. wish i worked here so i could write a review about the place

love this place!!! my favorite server there is rachael!!! she's absolutely amazing! there's this asian server there too thats superb! great job queen margherita!

queen margherita serves neopolitan-style pizza. it never would’ve occurred to me that a bona-fide wood-fired oven was lurking inside this place.

not impressed. will not go back. the service is so inattentive and lacking. the pizza was a long wait for flavorless burnt crust. i have high standards because i frequent serious pie 4th & virginia, where real pie is made. strike 2, you are out queen margherita.

most definitely one of the best pizzas in seattle. this is a place where you get real pizza italiano, said an italian friend of a 's.

really unhappy.... service was uninterested. we waited an hour and 10 minutes for our pizza. i asked for the bill after an hour , for the things we had already eaten (salad, soft drink, glass of wine) since we were sick of waiting with no apology or explanation... and they handed me the bill for the entire order....and we hadn't even received the pizza yet! charged us 2.75 for a soda, but never asked if we wanted refill. we asked for one, and....yup...they charged another 2.75. any reputable restaurant would have 1. apologized, 2. comped the wine or salad or...omg...even the pizza 3. not slipped us a bill for the entire amount when i asked for a bill for only what we ate so we could leave. really disgusting.

fantastic pizza and service. i went here for the first time on a busy friday evening. even at 5:30, the place was packed. my party was seated quickly and the wait staff was incredibly friendly and personable. the menu is well-sized and well-priced.

best of all, the pizza is just amazing. like another reviewer said, "finally, great pizza in magnolia!" this is some of the best neopolitan-style pizza i've had in seattle.

although it's in a small inlet and somewhat hard to see, you owe it to yourself to check it out. great atmosphere and food that'll make you want more.

just the spot we were hoping to find in magnolia! excellent neapolitan pizza, fresh greens in the salads, friendly waitstaff. the food can come out fast, so it's a great spot to bring kids. the kitchen was making special items for kids when we were in on a slow night, which we thought was sweet. try it out yourself!

fun new pizza restaurant in magnolia. had dinner the other night at queen margherita, the latest effort from the folks who run mondello's. what a nice addition to the magnolia (and seattle) pizza restaurant scene!

the big wood-fired pizza oven gives the whole place a warm glow, and the restaurant is a lot livelier than you might expect in that distant corner of the village. very kid-friendly, but still a bit sophisticated.

pies are thin and crispy, straight out of the oven. we had the funghi which was just enough for two people with a salad. tiramisu was awesome, and they have a nice selection of italian wines at reasonable prices.

a hungry eater could polish off a whole pie, or at least three-quarters of one. you can get them to go, too, of course. it's pizza!
