About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Charming
Great for scenic views

An understated storefront hides a coveted skyline view—just one of the many ways you could underestimate this longtime cafe on Mount Baker’s main drag. The menu, the sign—even the name—are a bit of a throwback, but current owners Guy Devillier and David Hoefer took over in 2018 and keep things attuned to today. Carbonara packs more nuance than you might expect, the slightly crackly pizza’s better than it has to be, and the bar pours lambrusco and negroni. No wonder tables are loaded with a diversity of diners.

Amazing place, great service and yummy food! They had a pretty good size gluten free menu. No gluten free pasta, but the alternatives made my chicken Alfredo sooo tasty!

I ordered pasta and salmon. The salmon is plain and uncooked. Didn’t met our expectations. I also specifically requested window sit but they just shove us wherever.
That's Amore - SeattleResponded on April 6, 2025
Hi, Yusuf, So sorry the salmon wasn't up to snuff last night.I do wish you'd said something so we could replace it with something more to your liking. Regarding the windows, it takes about two weeks advance notice to get a window table on the weekends. We reserve the tables starting at the windows and making our way back. So your table was the closest we had available at the time you made your reservation.

The experience was exceptional in every aspect, starting with a warm welcome from the owner, the service was excellent, both friendly and knowledgable. The wine list, although somewhat limited, provided an array of choices that accommodated both our palates and pocketbooks. The restaurant’s ambiance is delightful with sweeping views of the local neighborhood, as well as, the skyline of downtown Seattle. The food was savory and generous in proportion. We look forward to revisiting this venue again.

Thanks so much, Mark, for taking the time to post your 5-Star review and your additional comments. You made us blush. So glad everything was up to our standards for all of our guests. So glad we'll see you back sometime soon.

We were visiting Seattle and wanted to make sure we were supporting local restaurants. It took a tiny bit of effort to get up to this place, but it was certainly well worth it. Great food and service. Just a short drive from downtown and you will not be disappointed.
That's Amore - SeattleResponded on April 6, 2025
Thanks, Scott, for taking the time to post your 5-Star review. We are kind of tucked away up here, so I'm glad you found the effort worth the trip. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip to our fine city. Please do come and see us again next time you're in town.

Lovely place with delicious options for everyone, including vegetarian for my husband. We dined with our kids to celebrate our anniversary and hosts were nice, helpful and friendly. They made the dessert free and gave a small note with wishes for us, which was a Bonus! Definitely will be recommending this place to my friends! Bruschetta is a must try
