Cafe Lago

I have driven by the place tons of times and never stopped in for Lord knows why. The food is incredible and the ambience is perfect for a date night. I can't remember exactly the name of the appetizer but it was like toast and roasted tomato and goat cheese and it was maybe the best food I've eaten in ages. Can't wait to go back.

Our go-to Italian place in Seattle. We love the olivata appetizer, the ravioli is always amazing, gnocchi is super soft & light. The bartender makes super good cocktails and very good wine selections. Go here!

Cafe Lago has been around for well over 20 years, so they must be doing something right. They offer a limited menu of good Italian fare. They offer a few very good anitpasti and a few good pasta and a few pizza. If you are looking for fish, poultry or other meats, you may be disappointed because it is not offered. I believe they only serve one (1) steak dish. Also - when full, the dining room (all hard surfaces) can be noisy. With wine or cocktails you will spend $100 a couple without effort. No liquor - you can spend less . Service staff is all young and eager to please. So....if you know go knowing this - you will enjoy your experience.

Cafe Lago is a nice little Italian restaurant in the center of Seattle. Their pasta dishes are delicious and we had a nice bottle of Italian wine. We had great appetizers, I think this is called antipasti, this was a flavorful mix of salami, cheese, eggplants,...delicious. The service was very friendly and the food was brought in a timely manner and in good quantity.
