This place is very cute, loved the atmosphere and vibe. I sat on the bar and the bartender was super nice and personable! He gave me great wine recommendations. Food amount was ok. is it the best Italian food I’ve had? Probably not but good enough that I would come back.

Cafe Lago has delicious wood fired pizza. They have specials on Mondays and pizzas are $10. They get booked pretty fast so its advisable to book a table for Monday a week earlier. I went in couple of times with my toddler who loves pizza. There margarita pizza with fresh mozzarella is a must try . Lots of vegetarian pizzas, antipasto, gnocchi options for $10…

We booked a table here for my parent’s anniversary and I really appreciated how easy it was to make a reservation online. The atmosphere in the restaurant is absolutely gorgeous and the service was attentive and very helpful in giving recommendations.

Monday pizza night is buzzing for a good reason. Can’t beat the deal for $10 for a pie. We also tried ravioli, antipasti, house salad and house made strawberry rhubarb tart. All very yummy. Highly recommend when you are in the hood.

Awesome Italian restaurant! Chinese broccoli and large bean appetizers were delicious to start, and our main dishes were perfectly cooked with flavorful sauces. Ravioli had fig in it (not a fan usually), and it went surprisingly well with other ingredients. Tried three cocktails; every single one was great. The restaurant was full on a Thursday night but the server was attentive and food came out in timely manner. We couldn’t find what we wanted for a dessert, but brioche was a okay choice to put a candle on (just a bit heavy ) Overall, lovely place for any occasions and reservation is highly recommended.

Great dining experience in Seattle. I had a Pomodori for starter and a fetuffini with meatball as main. Both of them were fenomenal, but Pomodori was absolute fantastic!!

Wonderful neighborhood Italian joint with a deservedly outsized reputation. The drinks, whether from the cocktail list or your own preference, are well-made. The wine list has a great selection of both Washington and Italian wines, depending on your mood. The food is the real star. There’s a new gnocchi weekly, the lasagna is massive, and the pizzas are *chef’s kiss*. Make reservations if you want a decent table – some of the two tops can get a little cramped, especially by the window – but the attentive service more than makes up for the lack of space.

I have been coming to Cafe Lago since I was a student so many years ago. I moved on but I was smitten with the delicate raviolis then and they are still just as good 3 decades later. A “must visit” recommendation for any trip to Seattle. And sorry but after eating ravioli here, you will not want to get ravioli at any other restaurant. The grilled eggplant also highly recommended.

Café Lago is consistently fantastic. It is a wonderful thing to be able to say about a favorite Italian restaurant. My family has been going to Café Lago to celebrate family occasions for 25+ years.
