Reviews
The food is a bit of a hit or miss, it lacks consistency. I had incredible things that were honestly to die for (like the Short Ribs, just amazing) and others that I didn’t even want to finish (the butter truffle ravioli was just not tasty and the ricotta and pistachio cake were too sweet without the proper texture.
As a lot of people point out, service can be slow and food can take a while, our waiter was super friendly though. The atmosphere is incredible, the light, furniture, the view, that is worth it.
We spent $130 with 1 glass of wine, 1 drink, 1 starter, 2 mains and 1 dessert. Would I go again? Maybe. Not the best Italian, not the worst. It’s just Seattle being Seattle.
I mean, I was surprised after dinner. Dinner was just OK, a little better than average. Not great. We had many of the starters, including the Dungeness crab salad. (it first came without the crab and we had to send it back.), Christine’s with cheese, focaccia (not warm or fresh tasting), baked spinach(very good) , chickpea salad (very good), carpaccio (OK but wouldn’t order again)
We went on two pasta dishes, the boor (which was recommended, but too heavy for my taste), and the tagliarini with spot prawns (good taste, but way too few prawns)
We finished with dessert of the crostata de pere (delicious pear, delicacy with a hard crust), and the ricotta pistachio cake. (which was also really amazing.)
Also had halibut en papillote, and pea soup appetizer (soup was excellent, fish was overcooked)
So on the Whole, service was a bit slow, but good, appetizers and entrées were overrated, and dessert was underrated.
I can see why people like it, the setting is just gorgeous, overlooking a marina on a lake. Windows are open and you get the fresh breeze the whole time you’re there. Fantastic location!
Good luck with the food
During the dinner service, our main waiter was seemingly disinterested and honestly bothered by us being there. Another waiter took my appetizer plate without asking if I was finished.
For every gesture of service, refilling water, giving new silverware/plates, etc – I of course always say thank you. I would say there was only once where I said thank you and an employee replied with kindness. The other moments I felt ashamed I was making them do all this work.
Overall, the food was fine. Fine in terms of price for what you pay for. The taste is good, I actually quite enjoyed the braised boar pappardelle. Compared to a place like Cafe Lago, with exceptional dishes and service – id much rather spend money somewhere like there than here.
Theres dozens of places that best Como in flavor, price and service. If you want a waterfront view during a nice dinner, I’d try out Anthony’s restaurant, just 4 mins away. I’m disappointed that my visit didn’t go as well as I had wished. It would’ve been a nice intimate dinner spot to take friends and family, but now I wouldn’t feel comfortable bringing my loved ones here.
Upon arrival, the hostess was very unwelcoming. She did not greet us or acknowledge us when we first walked in. After a moment, we greeted her ourselves and said hello how are you?, hoping to get her attention. She responded with “How can I help you?” in a very abrupt and unfriendly tone, which made us feel uncomfortable, as if we were bothering her by being there.
The food itself was very good and we truly enjoyed it. However, the service throughout the meal was quite slow, which affected the overall experience.
We came to celebrate an important milestone and were hoping for a warmer, more attentive atmosphere. While the food was delicious, the front-of-house interaction and service speed could definitely be improved
