Outdoor Seating
23+ year old Italian Restaurant in a stand-alone building with an outdoor patio with producing merlot grape vines growing on the trellises, a large three-tier fountain, and a more private rear terrace/sun room (for up to 16 guests). The patio includes an open-top as well as semi-enclosed (3 sides and top), all with overhead heating units. Inside features a full-service bar, a 270 degree central fireplace, and all windows on two sides not looking towards the bar. The menu is predominantly Italian, with some American fare.
Girardi's offers beef/pork/lamb/chicken, seafood (pescatarian), vegetarian meals and can create some Gluten-Free dishes (prepared near non-GF foods). Girardi's marinara is created with San Marzano-style tomatoes. Featuring a variety of super-premium as well as more affordable wine selections, $7.50 house wine by the glass, a good selection of bottled or canned beers, and a great selection of cocktails. Girardi's house-made Tiramisu is unique in the area and is cherished by those who respect the authentic flavor and texture of a "real" Tiramisu. A fine array of desserts (including Cannoli and Affogato), cakes and ice cream round out your dining experience. Note on Reservations: Girardi's does not take reservations for patio seating. It is first-come, first-served, but due to the number of available tables, turnover is fairly quick, and wait time is short, if at all. Reservations will gladly be accepted for inside dining room and the terrace/sun room seating.

We love Girardi's! This was one of many visits over the years and it never disappoints. Tasty food, charming patio, and decent prices. Their extensive menu offers something for everyone. Highly recommend. Unfortunately they do not take reservations for their patio, so come early or enjoy their dining room, which is also very nice.

We had a great time, and the food and service was excellent. I celebrated my birthday and really enjoyed the free dessert. I live in Houston, but have family in Edmonds. We always go to Girardi’s for a meal or two during our visits.

The Eggplant Parmison with Spaghetti was outstanding. I had just been in Italy and loved the eggplant there, but Girardi's was just as good if not better! The server was attentive and friendly. I can hardly wait to return. Check out their "Happy Hour" selections in effect during their never-ending Happy Hour.

We are wine club members at Dusted Valley. It was time to come to the Edmonds tasting room to pick up our quarterly stash and it's never good to drink without food. Upon doing an online search we found Girardi's and it far surpassed our expectations. Delicious food combined with impeccable friendly service and a very good price point for the value. We'll be back!

Our service was great, attentive without hovering. Our food was wonderful, served hot, perfectly seasoned, and flavorful. Although it was a chilly evening, the restaurant temperature was not cold and not hot but just right. We wore long sleeves, sleeveless might have been a bit cold. The risotto was a bit al dente for our preference but tasted wonderful, and we realize risotto is supposed to be al dente.

Having a reservation got the three of us a table at window next to street -- nice for watching people go by. We arrived at 4 pm so not many others in restaurant. Waitstaff were pleasant and attentive. Food -- spinach salad and 2 cheeseburgers -- were excellent. Yes, a cheeseburger in an Italian food restaurant! Cheeseburger had a 1/2 pound patty plus all the usual additions. Delicious. Hit the spot for a 4 pm early dinner, late lunch. All local COVID-19 requirements met. Also has an attached, semi-outside area with heaters. Wonderful experience.

Girardi's Osteria was wonderful! Not a single bad word to say about them. The food was delicious (the goat cheese bruschetta was swoonworthy). The service quite good for their being understaffed, and the ambience delightful. The menu has a wide range of options, and some truly unique dishes. I can't wait to go back and try more of their dishes!

Wait staff great. Food average. Fish overcooked. Lasagne ok. $5.00 for bread basket ridiculous. Seating host needs to remove black ski jacket he looks like a customer and add a little enthusiasm to his aporoach. Caesar salad good. Need to offer a Mista mixed green salad as a side option. Pricey for what is offered. Fireplace adds a wonderful touch. Holiday decor welcoming. House Montelpuciano good.

Food was very good, although most Italian restaurants accompany meals with bread sticks or garlic bread of some kind. For the price, that would be expected. House wine was good and a bargain, but would liked to have seen some bottles in the $20 to $25 range.

Girardi's is our "go to" restaurant for Friday nights. We dined on their patio throughout the pandemic and have now started eating indoors. Great atmosphere and great service. We know most of the servers by name and love the manager Sky! The food is good with ample portions. We never go away hungry! We have eaten there so many times that we know the menu inside out so it would be great if they could mix it up a bit. Other than that, I highly recommend it.

This is such a warm and inviting restaurant. The food and ambience was very nice. The staff was attentive, but had to cover a lot of tables. We understand these are tough times for restaurants, so we really appreciate a fun night out.

Really miss the old menu. Not much on the new menu I wanted to eat.

Nice options for outdoor and open-to-outside-but-actually-indoor tables. Service was prompt and attentive throughout. Menu was extensive, ingredients fresh and portions plentiful, but would not re-order either of the entrees - both were a little too bland for us.

Service was rushed and wait staff seemed preoccupied. Beet salad was wonderful. Entrees were tasty but heavy and over sauced. Desserts were lovely.

It was a great time with great people. Our service was a bit lacking. The server forgot to bring my dad’s food and couldn’t keep our food/ drinks straight. But the food was so delicious :) thanks!
