Dona
1203 N State St, Bellingham, WA
Crema's Take
“Dona is a warmly intimate gathering spot where homemade Italian food and thoughtfully crafted coffee drinks share equal billing, creating the kind of place where you linger longer than planned. The hand-painted animal artwork adorning the walls and genuinely exceptional desserts like their lemon ice cream suggest real care goes into every detail, making it feel less like a coffee shop and more like a friend's kitchen that happens to pull excellent espresso.”

This was an incredibly great experience. Fantastic food. You can really tell everything is homemade. Will definitely be back.
I keep thinking I should try something else, but you simply cannot do better than the best. Everything thing i have ordered has been the best. Tonight I had the lasagna, which I make a fabulous lasagna, so I know it is fairly pedestrian as Italian food goes, but a foundational dish. It just blew me away, simple and tremendous. Our waiter/waitress Katina has served me many times over the years. No nonsense, get er done, top notch. This is one of my all-time favorite Italian restaurants. If you are on the fence, go! You will not regret that.
I was craving some Italian food and this hit the spot. I like the interior, seating is comfortable, and the animal paintings on the walls are unique and interesting, overall very nice inside, although it does get a bit loud where we were sitting. We ordered Aglio e Olio and Ravioli which were both delicious.
The food is amazing! I had the Shiitake Vodka Cream Sauce with Linguini and it was delicious. We filled it up with the terimisu and it was a generous portion! Can't wait to come back.
Wonderful experience! The food is amazing and the staff exceptional. The lemon ice cream dessert is above and beyond delicious! Highly recommend!
