"Set to open this spring in the Alki Homestead, Il Nido is Mike Easton’s upcoming Italian restaurant, currently slated for a “May-ish” opening per the restaurant’s Instagram; construction appears to be moving along and Easton has been posting regular social-media updates. The menu has not been finalized but may include lighter Sicilian-inspired fare in the summer and Northern Italian stuffed pasta in colder months. Inside seating will accommodate 64 with an additional 20-seat outdoor patio; finishes Easton has revealed include vertical-grain fir floors, a log mantle, and a wine wall visible on arrival, with subtle modern touches that complement the Alki Homestead’s old-school, log-cabin vibe." - Gabe Guarente
