Garlini's Napoletana - Wenatchee

I genuinely wanted to love this restaurant and award it a full five stars! It was quite busy and appeared to be a lovely place to dine. I ordered a pizza...

I had the strangest experience today while trying to make a reservation for my daughter's birthday. The employee who answered my call was incredibly unprofessional. I...

We dined at Garlini's last Thursday night with a group of 12, and our reservation was for 7:30. It had been over a decade since Sherrie and I last visited, and we were excited to indulge in their renowned pasta dishes once again.

The service is decent and the atmosphere is pretty good, but I honestly haven't had a dish here that I've enjoyed. As someone who can't consume anything with milk, I didn't find any options that tasted better than something I couldn't make at home for a quarter of the price. I can't speak for the other dishes, and I know a lot of people say good things about this place but I'm going to be honest. I was disappointed the 3 times I went here. Back in 2012, I went here with my ex-fiance. Since we both had red hair, the waiter must have assumed we were siblings because he gave my fiance his number and was blatantly hitting on her in front of me. I will probably never go here again. There are a much better restaurants in Wenatchee, with better food that isn't so commercialized. This place is basically a more expensive Applebee's, but more pizza and pasta focus.

Garlinis is my drop in spot in Wenatchee for a sneaky quick bite and delicious cocktails! There's always a cozy spot open at the bar, so no wait! Their crab artichoke dip and garlini bread are two appetizer favorites of mine!
