Il Terrazzo Carmine

This weekend we finally got to use a gift certificate we had to Il Terrazzo Carmine, an amazing Italian restaurante unassumingly nestled into Pioneer Square on First and Jackson.  The ambiance was rustic, the service was high-quality and the food and wine were to die for.  (The fact that our waiter looked exactly like Daniel Craig as James Bond, was an added perk.) 

I highly recommend treating yourself to lunch or dinner here sometime soon. I'll go with you! Here is what Steve and I enjoyed along with a mouth-watering Montepulciano red wine.......
