The regional and contemporary menu at Lago is a culmination of northern Piedmontese dishes to Sicilian seafood dishes inspired by 30 years of Italian cooking and upbringing. We have also added in some popular American-Italian dishes for those guests looking for a more modern Italian dining experience. The beverage options at Lago are equally as much thought out in standard and craft as the food menu. Lago offers a unique predominantly Italian wine list, where a large number of bottles can also be ordered by the glass, and half bottle. A 10 selection draft list, well thought out craft bottled beer, Italian inspired handcrafted cocktail & martini list sets Lago apart from all the rest! Lago’s philosophy is simple… The freshest ingredients, made from scratch menu items, using simple recipes to bring authentic Italian flavors to the table. All inside a warm and inviting atmosphere where good food and good friends coexist in blissful harmony. Annually a "Best Of" Winner, Come and join us!

    One note: 7pm reservation. Arrived 5 minutes early. Went to bar to wait for table as instructed. No contact of any kind from front desk until 8:05pm. That lack of communication is inexcusable. We ate at the bar and were served an excellent meal promptly by a friendly bartender.
