- DDanielSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoThis was the perfect romantic (early) Valentines dinner for us! the food was delicious...possibly the best rack of lamb and sautéed calamari that we've had, here, or in Italy! The ambiance was perfect - lower light and sound levels, and smooth jazz (every Thursday evening). And Katie's service was amazing, including her ability to match the perfect bottle of Barbera to our tastes and meal! In business for 50 years, and still the utmost is cast, quality, service, and value. Magnifico!More infoIL BISTROPrice: Expensive• Italian• Belltown / Pike Place Market•4.6
