“My partner and I have been to Amarone a few times, and we have always been blown away by the quality of the food. Top notch Italian cuisine, hitting the perfect note of refinement without being pretentious. Just stellar. Last time we were there we enjoyed short rib raviolis and spicy pesto prawn linguine. The dish materialized very quickly, brought in by a smiling and delightful staff. The drinks menu is also extensive, with an excellent wine collection, and great cocktails. The atmosphere is also amazing with a subdued lighting for some intimate setting, and great decor.“
“I am a regular customer here…discovering their wine club during Covid. I stop in, pick up my wines, meet friends, have a snack and a glass of wine. The staff is knowledgeable and makes wine super approachable for novices and can converse with the connoisseur.“
“Over all it was a good place with a good selection to choose from.but wished that they had bread at the table and offered a salad or something.to keep you engaged while waiting for your meal.note that it is a little pricey.but that seams to be the trend .over all now knowing what to expect id definitely go back.“
“Strong drinks, great service, and live music. What more can you ask for? Not to mention they also have tv for those interested in catching a the big game. We made a pit stop for drinks before grabbing dinner next door but to be honest i wish we stayed a bit longer and had a few small bites from their menu. Next time for sure!“
“We’ve always loved this place. Tried the new Brunch menu today. Food was good, eggs Benedict was perfect, and omelette also great! Needs Bloody Mary’s on menu. Service was ok, very nice server but timing was a bit off, long absences… we’ve also noticed a lack of attention to detail, bathrooms needed tending, food on the floor, a piece of broken glass in the stonework on the wall and paper taped to bathroom door like nobody knows what WC is, that’s one of kitschy things we love, the weird bathroom! Just needs a little love & attention.“
“Great place authentic food since it was founded. Nicolino's is truly an Issaquah treasure. The tiramisu is unbelievable. I know the recipes are true because I was a sous chef there under Dennis Long in the mid-90s. The only true Chef I ever trained underKid-friendliness: Great place for families they have an awesome patio we use to grow fresh herbs out there.“
“10/10 this is my new favorite place. The crab artichoke dip was amazing! The service is fantastic and on point. My wife and I have been twice now and I'm absolutely going back. This is a great date night place. I highly recommend it.Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level and outside seating“

“Update: 01/21/24 I have been coming to Imbibe at least once a week since my original 5 star review. I wouldn't want to be a regular anywhere else. Trivia Night is my favorite but we frequently play games on other nights or come for brewer's nights. Awesome rotation of food trucks, great beer selection, and friendly staff!“
“This place is AMAZING! We had a large group looking for a place to eat pretty last minute. When we called to see if they could take us, they welcomed us with open arms, even though we would be coming in 45 minutes until closing. The food was the best, authentic Italian, the portions was perfect, and the staff was extremely attentive and friendly. I'm so glad we found this place! We will definitely be visiting again the next time we're in Bellevue!“
“Great local shop for all things wine as the name suggests. They have local as well as international wines, not the same old grocery store brands. Friendly gentleman manning the shop. Will definitely be back to try some more after my stock runs dry.“
“Reservation a must! This is probably a new favorite restaurant in Issaquah and top 5 Italian restaurant that we have visited in the PNW. The staff was friendly, helpful and attentive to our needs, my glass was never empty. We ordered the insalata di cesare, sacchetti al cinghiale, lobster ravioli with tiger prawns, and a bottle of chianti. My mouth started watering when thinking about all the delicious food. Highly recommend!!“
