The Caprino, with its oven baked goat cheese and caramelized onions, strikes a perfect balance of sweet and tangy. It’s on the menu every night of the week, and has been a house favorite for years. See you soon ❤️

We’re pleased to welcome photographer Anna Mia Davidson to Café Lago with Human Nature, a portrait series documenting the resurgence of sustainable farming throughout the Pacific Northwest.
Created over two decades while Davidson was immersed in an organic farming community in the Snoqualmie River Valley, Human Nature celebrates the farmers working to cultivate a more responsible relationship with the land. Her photographs offer an intimate look at the people behind the movement, exploring the dedication, resilience, and stewardship required to sustain both their farms and the communities they feed.
Join us for an artist reception this Thursday, September 10, from 5–6pm to meet Anna Mia and experience her work in person. We hope to see you there ❤️

From Old Fashioneds to Negronis and plenty of libations in between, our bar team has put a distinctly Lago spin on some of their favorite classic cocktails. The Walnut Old Fashioned, Lago Negroni, and Sbagliato are a few standouts, each equally at home alongside antipasti, piatti forti, or dolci. And for the purists, not to worry: we’re always happy to make the classics as originally intended, too. Cheers 🥂

Take a look behind the scenes to see how we make our Lasagne. Sheets of fresh pasta are layered with ricotta, Béchamel, and tomato sauce, baked, and served with a garnish of parsley and Parmigiano Reggiano. See you this weekend 🍝
Gnocchi is never a bad idea ❤️

Much like our pasta, our House Bakes Bread is made fresh, by hand, every single day. Served warm with salted butter and a dash of olive oil, because simple, considered ingredients are one of life’s finest pleasures ❤️
