Italian
Abruzzo Italian Kitchen opened in December 2017. As is the Italian tradition, our focus is on the quality of our ingredients and simplicity of preparation. We cook by hand, from scratch, including all of our fresh pastas and wood fired pizzas. In addition to the Italian staples, we offer an extensive shared plates selection, grilled steaks, fresh seafood, and a small but decadent dessert list, all prepared in-house and served alongside an Italian-focused cocktail program and an Italian-centric wine list. Hospitality is the core of what we do: our staff is warm, genuine, knowledgeable, and attentive, and we pride ourselves on creating memorable experiences for every guest that walks through our doors.

    Our waitress was quite lovely. The three of us found the menu choices well met our palates. I was pleased to see the wine list included Vermentino. We appreciated the added birthday candle in celebration of her birthday.

    We came to Abruzzu on our anniversary during a vacation. The wine selection was great and the food was delicious. The service seemed to be a bit off - there were very large 20 min+ gaps between our courses. It may have been an odd night, but "energetic" would be an understatement of how loud the dining room was, I would have selected '11'. It was so loud that we couldn't hear each other across a table for two, not exactly a romantic setting. We were shocked when we walked from the dining room to the bar seating area at the end of our meal and it was whisper quiet.

    Busy and crowded but a nice atmosphere. Drinks were great as was the Bison Ragu. The pizza left a lot to be desired. Ordered the “margarita pizza” but it was really just a plain pizza with a few fresh basil leaves. Not what we expected.

    A family favorite for special occasions and out of town guests, Abruzzo’s never disappoints! The drinks are awesome, the cauliflower appetizer is a must try! Fried, dressed with a zesty drizzle of deliciousness and topped with pickled peppers, it’s pure perfection. The Wild Boar pasta is rich, fresh and always a hit! The lasagna is rich, cheesy and loaded with a homemade sauce that has the perfect blend of tender pork sausage and fennel. The wood fired pizzas are unique and always a crowd pleaser. Our server on this particular evening was AMAZING!! She helped us order some different items on the menu and even offered up advice on drinks and a mock tail for a family member that doesn’t drink. You don’t feel rushed, the ambiance is nice, the booths and high back so you don’t feel like people are in your space. We will be back and we highly recommend!!!

    Came to Abruzzo for my birthday in Whitefish... Had it marked on the reservation that this was for my birthday and it was never acknowledged. Waitress barely interacted with the table. I ordered the chicken marsala which wasn't a traditional chicken marsala... the chicken was very fatty, cut into cubes, and overall very gross. Kind of reminded me of the chicken in the pre-made salads you buy at the grocery store except smothered in sauce. It ruined the whole dish for me. Everyone else at the table finished their meals, waitress didn't acknowledge why I had a whole plate of food left at the end of dinner. Normally I would say something about the food but I was just upset about the service and nothing else on the menu seemed appealing.

    We are very sorry to hear about your overall experience. We appreciate all feedback and intend to address all of your complaints. Unfortunately, it sounds like your note in the reservation about the birthday you were celebrating as well as any acknowledgment of your food not being eaten did slip through the cracks. We typically hold ourselves to a much higher standard than this. We hope you accept our most sincere apologies and consider this a rare series of errors on our part. If you wish to give us the opportunity, I would love to make it up to you on a future visit should you find yourself back in Whitefish. Sincerely, Management

    The pizza was thin crust with an average tomato sauce and cheese. The chopped salad had fresh ingredients and wasn’t overdressed. Average Italian food. Gabby the waiter was attentive and anticipated our needs.

    We have been really looking forward to eating here. The Service and the Calamari appetizer were both excellent. Had the Chicken Marsala actually tasted like there was Marsala wine on it my wife would have been happier. My Lasagna was a nice size portion, had nice texture, and was served piping hot. The bread was hot and tasty but surprisingly at a 5:30 reservation, the restaurant was out of butter.
