Arlo's Ristorante

Love this place! We had Melissa as our waitress and she was delightful!!! She went above and beyond for us. Best experience ever! Thank you! Coming back again for the good food and great service.A**

The pasta was amazing. I had the gluten-free Bolognese. So yummy! And the service was absolutely amazing. I wish I could remember our server's name. She was beautiful inside and out And very on top of things. I just wish they had gluten-free garlic bread. We also had a yummy dessert.

Arlo’s was a great choice! Enjoyed the atmosphere as well as the food. The waitress was super kind and friendly. Would recommend this place if you haven’t already tried it you certainly won’t regret it.

If you’re looking for an exceptional dining experience in Sandpoint, Arlo’s Restaurante is the place to go. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for an evening of incredible food, top-tier service, and thoughtful culinary craftsmanship. We started with the Artichoke Heart Francaise, which was a revelation of flavor. The burrata was an extra treat next to the tender artichoke, which was perfectly prepared. Each bite melted in our mouths, leaving us craving more. For our main course’s, we indulged in a variety of dishes. My in-laws both had the Cioppino, which was a seafood lover’s dream. It was bursting with fresh flavors from the ocean, featuring a very generous mix of mussels, scallops, shrimp, clams and calamari in a fragrant, tomato-based broth. It is a generous serving - hearty yet refined, with just the right balance of spice and acidity. My husband couldn’t stop raving about The Penne alla Panna with Sausage. The creamy, velvety sauce clung to the perfectly cooked pasta, and the sausage added a savory depth that elevated the dish to pure comfort-food bliss. The dish was a very generous portion. My husband is thrilled he gets to eat his leftovers today! Being gluten intolerant with an onion allergy is usually a challenge. However, what set the evening apart was the personal touch from the incredibly talented chef, who curated a special gluten-free scallops dish just for me. The seared scallops were absolute perfection - caramelized on the outside, tender and buttery on the inside - paired with a medley of mushrooms that added an earthy, umami richness. It was a dish crafted with thoughtfulness and care, showcasing the chef’s dedication to accommodating all guests without compromising on flavor or presentation. Beyond the food, the service was impeccable. The chef himself checked in throughout the evening, ensuring every detail was just right and making us feel like honored guests in his kitchen. This level of hospitality made the evening all the more special. Arlo’s Restaurante isn’t just a place to eat, it’s a place to experience. Every dish tells a story of passion, family tradition, and artistry, making it a must-visit in Sandpoint. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.

Wow, first time eating here and it was awesome. The good was so tasty and great portions. The service was amazing. Definitely going back.

100% recommend this place! The pepperoni pizza was the best I have ever had, two different types of pepperoni crisped to perfection, the crust had the best chew and char, perfect sauce simple tomato flavor. The pasta was cooked just right with a generous amount of sauce that was a savory kiss. The ambience is very comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful at all times. Highly recommend.

The staff was super nice and helpful. We had the Caesar salad to start, they have their own twist and it was good, but if you're looking for a traditional Caesar it's not here. They served me up an Italian soda, best I've had in years!! They also have their own bruschetta, and it was SO good. Then we got the chicken pizza, it was very good and the crust was amazing. I would have loved a bit more garlic around the edges. I can't wait to try this place for dinner next time.

Delicious food and even better service. We had a great family meal after a long day skiing. Everything was fresh and tasty. Coming from a Chicago we hold a high bar for our Italian food. Recommend sharing unless you are looking for leftovers.
