    This was our second time to Rimini. We just love this restaurant. The food is excellent, service is great and if you are lucky you can get a table with a view of the lake (in the back). This is a great addition to Kirkland and well worth the visit.

    What a fantastic dining experience! Some of the best Italian we’ve ever had stateside (will be dreaming of that tortellini). Beyond the food, the staff go out of their way to create a memorable dining experience. They made my friend’s birthday such a special occasion. You feel like you’re family here!

    The perfect dinner. Took my parents out to celebrate my father’s 86th birthday. Mom and Dad smiled all night long, sang along with Tony and enjoyed the company of other patrons at their tables as they all helped us celebrate. My parents both had the Halibut and could not stop raving about it being the best halibut they have ever had and was hoping the “next time” (that was a not so subtle hint) they were going that the halibut would be available again. My wife again had her favorite the filet and I had the pasta meatball with Marsala sauce. Perfect bottle of wine and simply the perfect experience. I can not thank Fernando, Cindy, Tony and waiter that I had never had before Gino had the perfect conversation with my parents to the point my Dad is still talking about it today. I shot a video of my Dad trying to sing Italian with Tony but what you really see is absolute smiles of joy. Thank you again, we will be back soon!

    Good meal and service, but unfortunately construction noise level (they joked about and denied) spoiled what was otherwise a nice evening and experience. The food was very good, we’re planning to go back and give it another try. If you’re looking for something new and good fresh italian food, we’d recommend you give Rimino a try

    This is an awesome new little restaurant that is worthy of checking out!! Food is excellent, well priced and truly makes you feel welcome and appreciated! Tony, the musician is also great! Made our holiday outing very special indeed! But it does get very loud when full. . .

    Fun new restaurant in Kirkland with a great location. The service was excellent and the owner Tony, was very present walking around talking and sometimes singing to the guests. Food was delicious and the portions were huge. Will be going back in the future to explore more items on the menu.

    Love it so much we are coming back on Saturday bringing my parents. Another fantastic meal, we may have to rent a place in Kirkland so that we don't have to keep driving the hour each way to get here. Fernando, Cindy, Tony and the rest of the wonderful team makes us feel like family. The food is excellent, I love the selection of wines and my Wife and I have decided to go through the menu trying everything. Started with Prosciutto e Melone a great bottle of Super Tuscan Wine, the directly to the I had the Pasta Meatball with Marsalla Sauce and the Wife had Lemon Chicken and finished it off with Limoncello Gelato with a shot of Limoncello (according to my Wife that is the best way to have it). Everything was wonderful and had great flavor. I am not sure what they did to the marsalla sauce but it was the best I have ever had. When we come back on Saturday I may have to have it again. My Parents love coming here, but they only want to come when Tony is there becuase they love his singing and the energy and extra love he brings. What a great start to Christmas week.

    INCREDIBLE INCREDIBLE INCREDIBLE! If you’re even thinking about dining here just make the reservation. The service was out of this world, the food was authentic and perfect and the ambiance was on the mark for a “tucked away” family Italian restaurant. Keep in mind Tony sings and plays the guitar, his voice is show stopping and fills the entire restaurant. If you’re not into live performances this might not be for you BUT you’re missing out. It’s an experience! I’ll be going back 100%%%%.
