Kitsap County’s Best Italian Food

Kitsap County has so many fabulous Italian food. I’ve got a special place in my heart for Italian cuisine. I met and married my significant other in Rome, Italy.

Let’s face it-Italian food and drink is the epitome of a romantic date night dining experience. You don’t get more romantic than a night out, sharing a bowl of spaghetti with your significant other while “Bella Notte” is playing in the background. It was perfect for Lady and The Tramp, and it’s a perfect date night setting for me.

Thanks to my many years in Italy with some of the best food at my fingertips, I’m constantly in search of the perfect Carbonara. I adore Fiori di Zucca (fried zucchini flowers) and don’t get me started on Prosecco. Good pizza done right is life-changing.

Kitsap County actually has some amazing choices when it comes to Italian cuisine options. Whether you’re looking for an authentic Neapolitan pizza or fine dining, you can find something delicious on almost any budget.
