Best Date Night Restaurants in Mercer Island

Contender for Seattle's best Italian food. Infatuation has reviewed as more life-affirming than a night at the symphony, and it was a satisfied feeling leaving the restaurant. Service was very efficient, and it seems like a good sign when a server has been there for 4 years. The tajarin was delicate and flavor nice, although no visible or real flavor of the sage, but $33 could reasonably be $23. Rapini was nice and cavatelli was homemade and nice with broccoli as a vegetarian subsitute for rabbit. Choclate tart with hazelnut and cherry was a beautiful sight and worth returning for (and not over-priced). A good spot for anniversary.

Fantastic meal overall. Excellent service . Wish we had ordered more of the specialty sushi .

I think we’ve found our new date night favorite! The food was amazing- we had the bulgogi plate, the general Cho’s chicken, and the banchan salad. We couldn’t decide which was best- all so good. Manhattans were perfect. We can’t wait to go back and try more!

Excellent all around . From the warm and friendly greeting at the door to the table service , the entire dining experience was pleasant . Food is excellent and the prices are quite reasonable .

Fresh modern inviting atmosphere. We had a lovely server who was very sweet, but took a bit too long to circle back after the entree - this is being picky - we were ready for plates to be gone and coffee. Had excellent cocktails - all were beautifully balanced - the steak tartare and crab cakes were both yummy and presented beautifully. The table ordered branzino, salmon, waygu hamburger, Buddha plate and the duck. Everyone was very happy. Duck was said to be one of the best he had ever had, and the burger devoured. We were not intending on dessert but someone ordered the date & molasses cake with croissant & drambuie ice cream and toffee sauce + 5 forks ;) DUDE! Everyone at the table was enamoured - SO good - highly recommend! Overall great experience and will definitely go back.
