Alfredo’s Italian Restaurant in Petaluma

Updated review, This place has wonderful food. It is expensive. I don't mind that when I feel there is value. But tonight my shrimp scampi dinner entree came with 5 shrimp. Size 21-40 prefrozen shrimp, so literally a dollar worth of shrimp. This is outrageously expensive for that amount of food so my review now reflects that.

When we first looked it up, we were trepidatious to say the least. Located in the Washington Square in Petaluma, the area is not exactly known for fine dining. We were pleasantly surprised. The entrees were fantastic. Great wine selection. Service was on point. Definitely a hidden gem in Petaluma's vast selection of restaurants. We will definitely be back to this place.

Try the homemade beef ravioli! A dish to live for (because you want more). One of the best pasta dishes I've ever had, and I am from Italy.

The place is very small yet lacks the feel of intimacy. The food was okay.

It’s a good place don’t get me wrong but I kind of wished for a larger section to choose from. I believe if they were to broaden their section I might be more tempted to go there more often. The last time I went I wasn’t disappointed.

Attentive, friendly service. The dishes were priced a third more than their value for what it was, which was mainly pasta. The walls were dinged by chairs and there was a Christmas decoration on the wall in February.

Strip mall dining, but good food and decent wine selection. Very friendly staff and good prices too.I'd recommend as long as you are not looking for romantic atmosphere. Great place for business lunch or dinner with friends however.

We ordered Alfedo's spaghetti bolognese tonight. It was ready when we were told it would be ready, and it was delicious. The servings were more than ample. The meal included great bread with a great oil and herb dipping sauce. We pulled up to the door, called the phone number we were told to use and a person, wearing a mask, brought out food to the car...standing away from me as it was handed to me. Overall, for us another five star experience from Alfredo's.

It's Authentic Italian Food!! It's very very very delicious. I highly recommend this place!

I've had the risotto twice both times it was amazing, they change it up daily.

Tried Alfredo's for the first time today. I brought in a catered lunch for the office and it was absolutely fantastic. Everyone enjoyed the food, they couldn't stop raving about the Penne with Chicken, the tiramisu, the Salmon and the crowd favorite was the Gnocchi. I know how hard it is to serve gnocchi for a large group and it was perfection. Really everything was delicious. I will 100% be using their services again and am going to make sure to visit them for dinner now that I know how awesome they are.

Beautiful place great service yummy food

This is a Gem of a restaurant, a bit hidden but great food and service

Had a great time with our family. The service was impeccable, it was so clean. Now, the Food sooooo good! I had the Pappardelle with Shrimp and my Husband had the Shrimp Risotto. Fantastic!! Oh, and two bottles of wine, Sauvignon Blanc.

Love the food and service. Nice staff. Looks like they're expanding, so more tables.

Excellent food!!! Servers and bussers are attentive. Loud tight dining, but that just adds to the authenticity of this hidden Italian gem!

Great food! Nice people. A Covid Go-To

Authentic Italian food, and music. Good food, attentive service.. Beautiful little place.

Good, generous portions plus fast, attentive service. Prices seemed high in relation to the location tucked behind a chain pizza place in mid-range mall anchored by a Safeway supermarket, but again, quality was high and portions large. Or naybe I am just out of touch with Bay Area prices!

We had bruschetta and then my wife had a salad with chicken and I had capellini everything was great and good portions. It's a small restaurant we didn't have a problem getting a table but I would call ahead.

I went in not knowing what to expect but after the amazing service and delicious food my mind's blown and I now have a new favorite place to go

Only went there once, at the seafood pasta, was very good. I had a glass I'm Sicilian red wine, also very good. I will definitely be back. Not much atmosphere, but good food is what counts.

Worst Italian food I've had in years! We had our hopes up based on the well-written reviews. The food was absolutely flavorless and both of our entrees had limp-textured pasta with what seems like Costco bread. Oh, and it's expensive! For two cans of soda I paid $4.87! The place was empty and just seemed sad. The 5 star reviews were clearly paid for. Avoid this place at all costs!

Unsurpassed service, and cuisine! This restaurant by in large was way more than we all expected.We were searching for a high quality restaurant to have a nice dinner with some friends, and decided on Alfredos. That said, the second we entered, we were welcomed with open arms!We decided on some appetizers and wine for starters. The wine selection was top notch, and the appetizers were out of this world!!! Seriously, who cooks appetizers that well...We all then made out dinner selections, and "Wow"! We all tried each others and were blown away!Between the appetizers, entries, wine, and service we were very well takrn care of.We all decided that we will return with friends, and dreams of deliciousness....P.S. please don't change a thing...

My husband and I loved what we ordered. I had the fettuccini, he has spaghetti Bolognese. Very small inside, but food makes up for it.

Fantastic food, it has become our favorite restaurant.

Food and service was great!!! Definitely will be going back!

The food is constantly well prepared and tasty, employees provides fantastic customer service. I love how neat it is and mood. I highly recommend this place.

Great service good food.

A good place for comfort Italian food, good service and good flavor.

The food was outstanding. The prawns were so flavorful in a saffron clear sauce. Try the cheesecake, not dense but light and creamy. I would rate the food, service, and surroundings A++++.

Good service and delicious food. Definitely would go back if I lived in town.

Friendly service and delicious meals served with warm welcome and big smiles.

Excellent food and great service at a reasonable price. Will definitely go back.

Went for lunch it was our anniversary. One of the best meals we have ever had! The service was terrific.

I really enjoyed their food. I always get great customer service there. The place is neat and the employees are always very friendly. Will visit here again.

Small intimate room with something like 8 tables, a hidden haven in an otherwise box store mall. Great food, great service - some platings are architectural marvels! Check it out.

Food was delicious and staff was wonderful. Me and my husband shared a plate and the portions were very generous. Must try if you’re in the area.

I am not sure if we went on a bad day, or if other reviewers don't know what good Italian food taste like, but ick. Tried it twice to see if the first time was a fluke, but nope, terrible both times. Pasta is obviously from a box, other ingredients frozen or from a can. I think you would be hard pressed to find anything fresh in the kitchen. If it was cheaper it might be OK for a quick lunch option, but it is as costly as real restaurants. The only reason it gets two stars is because the staff was quite nice. Will not go back.
