Review:
Tucked away beneath the Pike Place Market, Il Bistro is a warm and welcoming Italian restaurant that has been serving loyal patrons and visitors alike for more than 30 years. Exuding the ambiance of a tiny candlelit Italian trattoria nestled in the foothills of Tuscany, Il Bistro uses fresh, locally sourced ingredients to produce a seasonally changing menu of classic and traditional Italian cuisine. Market-fresh seafood is a focus on the menu, with dishes such as grilled calamari in a garlicky butter and gamberoni (white king prawns) in Italian vermouth, followed by seared local king salmon in black truffle butter. Other signature dishes include risotto de giorno, pollo cannelloni, and linguine di mare heaving with an array of fresh seafood. A cozy bar serves vintages from Italy, the Northwest, and California and specializes in martinis, single-malt Scotches, bourbons, and grappas.
