Il Nido

Can Il Nodo accommodate vegans?

Not in a substantial way They have a very tiny menu most of their dishes have cheese. They have pasta…

No answers yet. Be the first to answer.

Are there vegan options?

Are credit / charge cards accepted for payment?

Of course.

Is it reservation only or are walk-ins accepted?

Walk in for patio seats is available. I recommend getting there around 4pm when they first open or after 6:30pm.

How warm is the patio?

Depends on the day and weather

How do you order takeout? I've followed links to a branded online store with nothing listed (are they out?), and there's no info on their pre-COVID site. These folks make the best Italian food in Seattle by FAR; I just want to buy it! 🙂

The restaurant does not offer takeout.

What is there to enjoy in the beverages for non alcohol drinkers?

Water

Do they accommodate gluten free pasta for Celiac's?

Not at this time. I called and asked Dec.2019

Do they allow for guests to bring a bottle of wine of their own? If so is there a corkage fee? I haven't been able to see any answers - tried calling and emailing.

You can bring in your own wine at $25 per bottle corkage fee and the wine you bring in should not be on the restaurants wine list.

If you'd rather dine outside, though, the courtyard has heaters to keep you warm. We had a reservation, and I'd recommend making one too.

I ordered the Cannelloni Di Pollo, and my partner chose the Cannelloni Di Vitello. Mine had a house-made chicken filling topped with tomato sauce and a touch of ricotta, while his was filled with veal. We loved both! It was fun getting to compare two versions of the same dish.

We ordered burrata salad as an appetizer and was asked if we wanted bread. Of course, why wouldn't we get bread - more on this later. We ordered pollo ai formaggi and linguine di marre as our main dishes. Both dishes were generous in portion. But that's where it stops. The pollo ai formaggi was bland - no real depth in flavors. The linguine di marre came with jumbo shrimps, baby scallops and squid. The slightly spicy tomato sauce was actually very sweet tasting and had no flavor - I had to add lots of salt to make it somewhat flavorful. The Jumbo shrimp was just okay, the scallops and squid tasted like it was from a pre-packaged seafood mix. Service felt extremely rushed for a $$$ cozy, romantic restaurant - we never got our water glasses refilled. When we got our burratta salad and our main dishes I was hoping they'd offer fresh ground pepper, but alas no. I even had an empty pepper mill that i asked to be filled-hint, hint, but they just gave me back one that had I could use. There was couple on a birthday dinner asking if there's any special meal, the waiter instead of letting them know there wasn't just rambled off today's dinner special. He also seemed very impatient when recommending wine. He may have been the only waiter for inside seating; but nevertheless, he gave off a very rushed vibe and just didn't want to stay at your table any longer than absolutely necessary - I think all of us would have been fine him taking more time with each customer since we're not a fast food restaurant. Towards the end of our meal when he brought our check he asked how our meal was and as soon as we said the typical, "It was fine..." he was off before I could actually tell him anything more. What seemed like a minute later he came to check on the bill to see if we were ready to pay - again a rushed vibe. That's when I looked at the bill and found out the bread wasn't free. I don't have an issue of paying for bread, but it would have been nice to let us know up front, given many fine dining restaurants offer complimentary bread. Also, don't expect (fountain) soda refills to be free, it's not. Lastly, when I was paying instead of handing over the payment device to add tip he held it tightly in his hand and would not let go for me - felt like he was brooding over to make sure he got a good tip. For the high price of our meal, rushed service, bland taste, certainly not worth going back, again.

After ordering, you seat yourself and they call your name when the food is ready. We had no problem finding a table for two. There seemed to be a lot of takeout orders coming through. Both pastas tasted fresh and were cooked al dente, just as advertised. The carbonara was creamy and flavorful. The short rib itself was good, but the pasta and sauce were a bit separated, so the pasta didn't absorb as much flavor as I expected. The cannoli was very filling and had a hint or orange in it. Overall, it's a good spot if you're looking for quick, customizable pasta. Just keep in mind that it's more of a fast-casual place rather than a full sit-down service restaurant.

I was actively eating a slice of pizza with another still on my plate when the server started cleaning up plates literally right around me. It was a very strange experience.

For those short of time and live with no adventure I'll cut to the chase. The food is exquisite…read more For the rest, please read on. This last week while traveling for business to Seattle I had the pleasure of dining at Mezzanote. Their name of course implies it is an Italian restaurant but what you don't realize until you have sat and initiated your meal is that you, regardless of choice are embarking on a beautiful tribute to Northern Italian cuisine. At first arrival, the immediate impression is one of modest presentation but friendly and very inviting ambience. The staff, including our Server Marcus was attentive and had impeccable timing to read the table and flow of those joined in the meal. Check back was perfect and his service support was equally in tune with the other tables on the patio where we sat. Now this is what you have been waiting for... The food and I mean, we had almost one of every item on the menu and every dish was simply delicious. Tastes that were balanced and never overwhelming, but truly inspired dishes that your taste buds understand that the food was made with care and meant to satisfy even the toughest of pallets. Let's start with the house focaccia and ask for the disco sauce to dip your bread. It was a tummy satisfying start but then they dropped the focaccia regala and with the cheeses melted in a medley that left me thankful I was as they say "hungry as a hostage" because the meal had just begun. The next appetizer brought out was the Carote... This medley of carrots smoked with a Chile Honey Glaze left this BBQ born and raised Mexican wondering why ?? And then I had my first forkful and any doubt that I had about the chef creating something sacrilegious by smoking carrots left me, as the flavors were amazing. For a moment I forgot I was eating my vegetables.. where was this when I was a younger man. On to the main courses and the Reginette was first up. This Bolognese was a hearty blend of flavor and subtlety as it wasn't overly anything except satisfying. The Braciola Dia Miaale was a durock pork chop with a rhubar mostarda and salsify puree with asparagus that could not have been better. You didn't have to be a pork chop fan to enjoy this at all. Every dish that arrived was better than the one before. The Bucatini C'Anciuova, Prawns with Calabrian Chile, anchovies, tomatoe and orange zest was a delight and I don't normally eat anything overly spicy. This was a balance of heat with a twist of tang that the orange zest delivered flawlessly. Allow me to share that it is imperative you save room for dessert. Their tiramisu taste as if there is some Italian grandmother locked away in a pastry room kicking these out. They have other desserts to be sure, but this is the star of the show in my opinion. For those of you that are wine enthusiast, they did have a wine list that was impressive. All in all, for those that follow me, you know that it is a rarity for me to give any place I visit five stars from the first visit. Consistency is premium in my book. But as I mentioned to one of our fellow diners. This food is amazing, and the reality is each of these dishes could be served in a five-star venue layered with opulence and still the food would outshine the location. The only drawback was there was no Coke Zero... Damn it ...Turns out though that can be a pretty tough find in the city of Seattle in all the restaurants. For one that does not participate in alcohol or wine, my taste buds were not underserved and I survived without my Zero. This place is a go-to for any Italian yearning for authentic Italian food made with love. That's the only way I can describe just how good the food is. This isn't something that is prepared in volume for the masses. The chef and that team are simply serving with their hearts and it resonates with every bite. I'll be back, again and again. Oh and should you find yourself needing to go to the restroom. Ask for the Disco restroom.. that alone is worth the drive... Lol until next time Mezzanote! Thank you for a wonderful meal.

Loved the experience at Il Nido! The restaurant itself is gorgeous--tucked inside the historic Alki Homestead with such a warm, rustic, romantic atmosphere. We started with the house-baked focaccia, topped with September grapes, anise and rosemary. The sweet-savory combination was unexpected but worked beautifully. The cavolo kale salad was another standout--super flavorful with black garlic & lime Caesar dressing, parmigiano, crunchy seeds and fried capers. For pasta, we tried the Tagliatelle a Nido with beef and pork Tuscan ragù and the Bucatini all'Amatriciana. Both pastas had a great texture and rich sauces, but the tagliatelle was my favorite--comforting, deeply savory, and perfect with all that parmigiano. Also had the Trouble in Paradise cocktail with bourbon, Campari, lemon, grapefruit and basil--refreshing with a nice bitter edge. Beautiful setting, creative Italian food, and definitely feels like a special little escape in West Seattle. Would happily come back for another pasta night! read more

The house made pastas are to die for, especially the Cavatelli with the runny egg. I dream about it. Cocktails are incredible especially the espresso martini. Fresh oysters were excellent too.

Excellent food with a great atmosphere. Strozzapretti was unreal. Get it!!! You will not be sorryread more

beautiful interior and exterior. inside a lovely hotel. great service, very professional and kind…read more one if the best eggs benedict ive ever had. sometimes i get salmon benedict and its fishy but this was spectacular. loaded and the bernaise sauce was amazing. potatoes couldve been browned more. the freshly made english muffin really set it apart from other ive had. thick and soft but nice crisp. beautifully poached egg with a bright orange yolk. 10/10! loved the wilted spinach as well! i also ordered a vanilla americano and it was soo yummy. great espresso and syrup tasted freshly made/not too sweet. their pain au chocolat was so good too. tasted freshly baked which i assume is the case since the english muffin was too. a little salty, flakey, soft and buttery with a little chocolate inside was the perfect pair with the coffee. they also gave me an extra one because the cafe was closing! i came around 12pm on a saturday and got an amazing seat near the window. not too busy. very peaceful and calming vibes. will be coming again:)

I got to try this restaurant twice with my co workers and both times were quite good…read more This restaurant/hotel is just beautiful. Interior decor is on another level. I am not even 100% on exactly how to describe it. Rustic, botanical, vintage, artsy, but yet cozy. The first time we visited, the service was a tad bit slow even though we were pretty much the only people dining at the time. During our second visit, however, there were way more guests dining and the service was a lot faster and more attentive. The food is quite good with large portions too. I really love their burger and fries! Fish and chips was just okay though. The fish was not seasoned at all so if you do not eat it with the sauce, it kind of tastes like nothing. Maybe the chef forgot to season it. The sauce that came with it was some sort of curry flavored mustard/aoili. It wasn't bad, but I think a simple tartar sauce would have been better. Overall, I would say this is a 3.5 star establishment, but I rounded up for the beautiful interior design and the atmosphere. The space is huge so this could be a good venue for a large party/company event.

This location was right near our hotel. We looked it up and saw was the same chef as another place…read morewe had been dying to try! Made a reservation for the next day at 730 pm Walked over and was greeted at the door. Told we had a reservation and were given the options of 2 seats. We chose a corner spot and settled in. Seats are packed in there, we're essentially eating with the 4 top next to us. I was staring at them based on my seat. Wife and I are tall and we were banging knees repeatedly. Be better if they took out one table, was uncomfortable the entire time Let's get to the good part now, the food and service. Food was top notch. For apps we got the prosciutto and melon and it was amazing. Fresh melon and a pile of delicious meat. For our mains I got the pouch chop and she got the halibut. Both were incredible. Perfectly seasoned and cooked. We shared the pave potatoes and they were good. Saw a lot of complaints about them being soggy but ours were good For dessert I got the pan a cotta with a pot of French press coffee. Any place that has a French press earns my instant loyalty lol. My wife didn't want dessert but couldn't stop thinking about the prosciutto and melon, so she asked if she could have for dessert. They loved the request and brought her another one. Drinks were solid and service was exceptional Loved everything but the seating!

Great spot here's what I had:…read more Cosmo drink "honey & co. pomegranate cosmo" It's a cosmo but with honey as a sweeter. The honey is a nice touch and they don't overdo it. It's like a hint of honey. Would order again. Tomato appetizer "Local roots tomatoes, bagna cauda, parsley, stracciatella" Tomatoes, cheese, and an anchovy sauce (no fishy taste). Very similar to a caprese - an Italian tomato, cheese, and basil appetizer but with a custom sauce instead of the basil. Tasty, especially if you like tomatoes or caprese. Lamb entree "Lamb t-bone, yogurt, cilantro chutney, tadka" The lamb was delicious and had a delicious sauce. I love lamb so trust when I say they did it right. However, the portion size was small at that price point. I would order it again, but next visit I want to try some of their other entrees. Peas side dish "Shelled beans, whipped chevre, corno di toro, mint" It tasted great. It was peas instead of beans because it's s seasonal, I think. The yogurt did a lot of heavy lifting but I would order it again. Red wine Very nice red wine that pairs with the lamb at $18 per glass. Decent price for a wine pairing. I forgot the name of it lol. Sticky toffee pudding dessert "Sticky toffee pudding, cream" It was delicious. First time having sticky toffee pudding. It was warm and delicious in a nice cream. Would order again. Atmosphere Small and a little noisy, but not too noisy. Nice decor and art on the wall. I would consider it a date spot or a nice outing with friends, but not a first date spot. Not a cheap spot, but also not overpriced. They stamp the receipt to make it very clear that a service charge is included, but it is split between business and staff and the staff was great so I gave a little extra. Would come back.

We were in the area and needed a spot for dinner. While walking to our hotel, we spotted some…read morepeople dining through a basement window, and thought the food looked good. At first we thought that we may be under dressed and we didn't have any reservations. We took the trek down the stairs and were met by one of the owners. I asked him if we were underdressed, and with a laugh and a smile, he assured me we were not. Our server, Veronica, was super personal and happy to give recommendations. She even brought me some samples of wine to make sure I found the ones I liked. The food was excellent and tasted homemade. Everything came out hot, fresh and had great presentation. The desserts were the cherry on top of an amazing cake. I'd definitely recommend trying this place out!

Reviews on another platform made us hopeful, but did not live up to the hype. We started with the calamari and meatballs. Nice portions for the price. The calamari came out pale but the flavoring was nice. The meatball was tender and it came with a nice sauce plus arugula. Main courses were chicken scallopini and shrimp and zucchini pasta. Both dishes were plated sloppily. The chicken was pretty dry but the sauce had nice flavor. The zucchini pasta was good - very heavy sauce and needed something to cut it, and the shrimp were overcooked. All in all - decent dinner. Think the service is still getting its feet under them.
