Europa Restaurant & Bakery

Went here for lunch with a Friend and wow, was it good! The ravioli they make from scratch every day is some of THE very best ravioli I’ve ever had. Really, very good. I’ll definitely be returning for the pizza and some other dishes on the menu that look amazing.

We looooooooove Europa! So much charm in this place. It’s magical and full of beauty and wonder. The food and service is stellar! Always a good choice for a romantic outing with the love of your life, or great for a casual night out on the town with friends. I’ve had lunch here too and have NEVER been let down! If I could give it a 10 out of 5, I would.

A local recommendation and I’m glad it was. Staff was friendly and attentive, no complaints at all. I had the delicious gnocchi with brown butter lemon sauce, it was great! I will definitely be back!

Great service. Dated inside. Food? Not so much. The chicken piccata was too sour. The chicken Marsala too sweet. The steak was a shit cut of meat. The bruschetta was perfect, but the bread was a little spongy. The martinis and Manhattan were both too sweet, as was the dressing on the Caesar salad (???). No one was pleased with their meal.

The service was fantastic. The food is garbage. Do not eat there… Olive Garden, as awful as it is, has better food. There are many nice Italian restaurants in town. You could choose any one of them and you’ll come out ahead. I remember Europa being wonderful in its early days. They’ve since checked out completely.

Nice happy hour, great food, lovely home like atmosphere, quiet enough for conversation, super drinks.

Europa is by far my favorite restaurant in Spokane. It’s a bit on the pricey end in comparison to other places in the area but it’s worth every cent. The calzones are large and magnificent.
Make sure to save room for dessert– anything you order will be the best part of your meal. I dream about the White Chocolate Raspberry cheesecake. So. Good.

Amazing food, all the Italian classics plus additional exciting things and interesting specials, the goat cheese gnocchi with spinach in a sage and brown butter sauce gave me a foodgasm, with a complementary salad you can’t get a better meal for $ 15. The service is top notch, friendly, attentive, and extremely accommodating of picky eaters and they bring appetizers/​salad/​main course perfectly paced. There’s a wonderful lounge area with a quiet atmosphere great for a date or simply eating alone, there is also a separate family friendly dining room. A real gem of Spokane that’s locally owned and been in business for 38 years, go here instead of the nearby Old Spaghetti Factory.
*Someone I dined with thought the Alfredo sauce on their fettuccine gave them a stomach ache the next day, but both times I’ve eaten here everything has sat well.

Terrible service! Always rude and extremely slow!
It’s a beautiful place! Just hire some friendly people and things will get better.

Seriously good food and love the atmosphere ! Very consistent — love the whole package :)

Great ambience here. Service is always very attentive. Portions are large. Specialty soup tomato potato is awesome. Chicken Marsala is a repeat order. You can dress up, dress down. Bring kids, go on a date. Anyway you do it it’s a nice experience.

Food was good, service could have been better. I had to ask for water. My date needed a refill on his beer and had to flag down a waitress. I do like the homey feel of the bar area and the couches are a nice touch. Like I said the food was good, very tasty. My favorite is the décor and atmosphere.

We picked Europa for our wedding night dinner for a good reason. This place is amazing. The portions are generous and the food is delicious.
I always get the sweet red pepper tortellini. And while I usually eat only half of my meal at other places, I scarf the entire thing down here. It’s that good.
I’ve heard that other things on the menu are good too. But I’m sticking with my favorite meal. Sure, I’ll take a bite of yours too. Thanks!

I have eaten here at least twice a month for years and there is nothing that isn’t delicious!
My favorite dishes are the stuffed mushrooms, lasagna, spaghetti Europa, and the Mufelleta sandwich. All are fabulous. The pizzas are great with fresh ingredients and fresh dough. I have never had a bad meal here.
Exceptional wait staff are always attentive.

This place has alright food, but I really love coming to this plates for desserts or a night cap. The vibe and ambiance of this place are what keep me coming back. Always dependable place to take a date to.

Came here for a double date. Very relaxed nice atmosphere. Had the gorgonzola fondue for appetizer and calamari. Absolutely delicious and recommend. I love calamari and are very particular about the way it is prepared and cook and honey nailed it! For sure on my top 3 best I’ve had!
For dinner had sweet pepper tortellini and manicotti with the basil pesto sauce. The sweet pepper sauce is delicious! But overall everything was. Didn’t have anything we didn’t enjoy or liked.
You must save room for dessert at this place. We had a banana macadamia nut coconut cake that was light and fabulous — very moist! Huge slice couldn’t finish. Hubby had a cookie dough warm pie that was very rich but very good!
Definitely recommend

Well now. The place is new to me, but not to my mom and her 92yo friend. They made «I remember» comments the minute they walked in.
They remembered the atmosphere, but not the food. OK, atmosphere is laid back. Had soft lighting with a sofa-​like thing in the corner that served as a booth. We moved in there and felt at home right away.
Now, the food:
Poached pear salad: candied nuts, dried cranberries. Raspberry vinaigrette dressing really made it.
Bread: soft crust, made interesting because the butter tasted like it had the juice from crushed rosemary drizzled into it. Really subtle and nice.
Soup: minestrone was the best choice we felt. Freshness of ingredients came through.
Spaghetti: meatball with good flavor of fennel; rich sauce.
Manicotti: the sweet red pepper cream sauce raised this dish to a higher level.
Ravioli: this is the thing to get. Intense flavor of the beef contents, reminded me of lean short ribs that were seared then braised for hours. Wrapper made there– you can tell. Sauce was highly aromatic from the mushrooms, with the marsala flavor sneaking up on you after the mushrooms grabbed you and got your attention. Damn, this guy is great on sauces.
Seafood fettucine: er, get this too. Once again, the aromas get your attention before you dip the spoon in. Shrimp, calamari, clams, scallops all present and accounted for. Sauce is light yet with creamy seafood flavors. Thanks. Don’t really like sauces that are butter, lemon, garlic, and more butter. Yup, great on sauces.
Chocolate expresso petit fours: very creamy. Good quality dark chocolate was used, not that milky substitute. Probably a cholesterol speedball, but who cares! Worth it!
Gotta get out of town before I become an addict.

It’s not the best I’ve ever had but it’s definitely not bad.
A large group of us came here for lunch and all ordered different things so I had a chance to try a variety of dishes (salads, soups, sandwiches, and pastas). Overall, the food was good — hearty and well-​seasoned and it filled out empty bellies. Skip the key lime pie though; it was just missing the key lime-​y tartness and I didn’t particularly care for it.
The service was completely lacking, however. I can see that serving a larger group can be overwhelming, but our server was quite lackluster, forgetful, and just didn’t seem to care. After a while, a secondary server came by and asked if we needed anything, refilled out waters, etc. but that took quite a while and we were basically done with our meal.

Driving through the area. Stopped in for a quick lunch. Place is clean. Service is good. Food tasted good. Healthy options.
Ordered buffalo wrap with minestrone soup. Place is large, prefect for big groups.

Very tea room like décor with a touch of industrial with the exposed brick and general look of the building. My host brought me here for a business lunch yesterday since it was right next door to the offices.
Good menu selection, I ended up ordering one of the lunch special salads which had pears, candied pecans, cranberries and a homemade raspberry vinaigrette. The soup of the day was a tomato basil potato soup.
The soup was a surprise, I was thinking it was going to be more of a creamy based soup, but it was more of a minestrone but with potato. It wasn’t that bad, the salad was mediocre, should have asked for cheese or something to help cut al that sweetness on the salad? not a fan of the candied pecans.
It came with bread which was okay as well. It tasted store bought and not freshly made, the crust was not crispy and it was not piping hot like I am used to when getting bread from a restaurant, even though the bread was nicely wrapped in the napkin it was in.
I will say the desserts looked amazing. They were mini sized so good for a quick hit of goodness. I have a sweet tooth and almost passed since I had thought the salad was too sweet but when she said chocolate mousse, I couldn’t say no! it looked like a slightly larger chocolate truffle, the mousse had a coffee flavor to it and the layer of cake at the bottom was moist and tasty. Great little bite, the ganache covering the mousse was to die for and it was surprisingly not too sweet.
I think I will need to come back and try something different and see if I just picked the wrong entrée
