Il Bistro Description:
Tucked along a cobblestone alley just below Pike Place Market, Il Bistro offers classically prepared Italian food in a moody, romantic setting, appropriate for a special occasion or a clandestine rendezvous. The roster of simple fare includes veal variations, balsamic-glazed roasted salmon, sautéed greens, and a noble Caesar salad. The rack of lamb steeped in garlic, rosemary and red wine is a standout, as are pastas such as fettuccine with a sauce of caramelized onions, prosciutto and herbs. The kitchen also turns out first-rate antipasti, bruschetta, carpaccio and sautéed prawns. For dessert, try the silky panna cotta. The notable wine list focuses on Italy, California and the Northwest. Servers are as seasoned as the folks behind the bar, and if you're looking for a quiet, late-night dinner, Il Bistro serves until 1 a.m.
