The city of Bothell, just north of Seattle, has been seeing an influx of exciting new businesses recently. Among these are John Howie’s Beardslee Public House and Wildwood Spirits Co, McMenamins’ Anderson School, and IL Bistro’s own sister restaurant Amaro Bistro.
Set to open towards the end of November, this Bothell Italian restaurant represents part of it’s Pike Place counterpart’s 40th anniversary celebration. The new restaurant will be housed in a 3,400 square foot establishment with both formal and casual dining rooms, an exhibition kitchen, and a 30-seater bar. With a menu heavily influenced by the classic, well-loved selections found at IL Bistro, Amaro will feature both “primi” pasta and “secondi” courses, largely made with meat, seafood, and produce delivered fresh from Pike Place Market. Patrons will also be able to enjoy delicious 10-inch pizzas from the restaurant’s wood stone oven.
