Il Bistro Restaurant Review

With cozy tables and a menu of classic Italian dishes prepared using fresh Northwest ingredients, there's plenty to woo you at this Pike Place Market spot. A broad selection of amaro and a well-curated cocktail list are just the things to get you in the mood. Meal choices include house-made gnocchi tossed in sweet tomato sauce; tortellini with a tangy lemon butter sauce, Dungeness crab and...

With the fishmongers and crowds of tourists, Pike Place Market might not seem like the place for a romantic candlelit dinner, but romantic dinners are what Il Bistro is all about. This basement trattoria takes Italian cooking very seriously, and in doing so also puts the Northwest's bountiful ingredients to good use. The menu includes such mouthwatering starters as calamari sautéed with fresh...

This sexy dining grotto remains a top choice for Seattleites seeking excellent Italian fare.

Great late happy hour

We came by after dinner for a drink before heading home, very convenient, right next to the market. We ordered our drinks before happy hour started, they were around $7.50 each for mixed drinks. At 11pm happy hour kicked in and I was really hungry after a lovely but small dinner, so I ordered the Bolognese off the HH menu....

Il Bistro is both a romantic restaurant and a crowd-friendly one depending on the night of the week. They have a lovely bar and happy hour and a beautiful restaurant with menu that offers lots of choices. It's all delicious. Also, a great wine selection.

We came by for a late supper, and the place was still buzzing with great energy at 9:30 and 10 pm on a Sunday night (Memorial Day weekend). We are visiting from Hawaii; in a touristy location by Pike Place Market, but not a touristy atmosphere. Great service by Matthias. Excellent innovative dishes (ravioli with ricotta, white honey, and stonefruit/plums)...

We went here on a spur of the moment notice. It was a Friday night and busy, the host said there were tables available in the lounge. We sat down at a table and not two minutes later, the host came back and said he had a table in the dining room for us. It was a lovely table for...
