Dining in Magnolia, a quiet residential corner of the city, feels small and personal. This short list of Seattle Magnolia restaurants covers three relaxed local spots: Mondello for Sicilian family recipes and house-made pasta in Magnolia Village, Petit Pierre Bakery on W McGraw St in the heart of the neighborhood, and Bizarre Brewing in Industrial Magnolia, where lower-alcohol beers flow in an all-ages taproom with outdoor seating.
Where to Eat in Magnolia
Magnolia's dining scene is modest in size, and that is part of its charm. Each of these places runs with a true neighborhood feel, so plan on an easy dinner or a relaxed stop after some time outdoors.
Mondello
Settle in at Mondello for a taste of Sicily right in Magnolia Village, with a menu built around the recipes of Mamma Enza and her Palermo roots. The kitchen makes its own pasta, ravioli and gnocchi, and you can choose from classics like carbonara, lasagna, bolognese and cioppino before finishing with tiramisu. The family still runs the restaurant, which makes it a fine choice when you want a cozy neighborhood Italian meal. Book a table through the restaurant's website, and keep in mind that Mondello also caters events around the Puget Sound region.
