Ristrettos Coffee & Wine

If you're looking for the perfect cafe experience for lunch or late afternoon fare, this is the place. I've been coming here for over 10 years and it has only gotten better each year. The selection of wine is always fantastic, with great beers and ciders to complement any meal. The coffee is the real star of the show, perfectly handcrafted by experienced baristas who know their trade well. The cafe serves a wide variety of food options ranging from light bites, to hearty handhelds and pastas. These great choices all come together in a chic cozy lobby with a centralized fireplace. This location also includes a lovely deck for the summertime that boasts pleasant views of Mt. Rainier.

Such a fun place to have cocktails and light bites! They have a lot of different cocktails to choose from and a great menu for when you want something fast and fresh. I love their lemon drop martini the best, but have had several of their drinks, and I love them all. They have charcuterie boards, flatbreads, loaded tots, and much more. If it's a sunny clear day, you even get a view of Mt. Rainier!

We came in for a coffee and a bite to eat this morning. The breakfast menu is small and very bland. Had a drip coffee and it tasted like warm water.

Wanted to visit this neighborhood cafe and tried it, nothing great honestly. My latte was okay, they serve coffee, wine and food as well. Cafe food was mostly Costco Muffins and scones.

Visiting from out of state and had breakfast here with my daughter. The food was good and my latte was delicious. Great customer service, helpful and friendly.

This place is a community gem! A great selection of food to go with coffee, ciders, beer and more. Staff is super friendly and the setting is perfect for meeting friends or conducting business. One of my favorite places.

A first time visit after a long while!!! Ordered a Chocolate Chip Vanilla muffin and a Grande Caramel Frappuccino, no whip, extra drizzle. Got my items in a very timely manner, the employee who took my order was very courteous and friendly. Had to use the restroom inside and it was pretty clean. Parking was totally packed, though, for a Thursday afternoon at 2:20 PM, 4/20/23. A whole lot of people were eating, drinking and socializing inside, as all of the tables were occupied. Overall, a very good experience!!!

Well, This isn't my first time here but it is my first review.I've been here about 5 times & Whether it be for a Quick cup of coffee in the A.M or a place to grab a glass of wine has always been a good experience. The staff is friendly always & including the owner if you happen to catch her and ask like I did " who's the owner?" Haha Anyhow, the photo I posted is of their seasonal Harvest old fashioned & it's a fun addition to their seasonal menu and worth a try! Even if you don't like old fashions...I had a spinach artichoke dip today & last Friday when I came I had their cheese and meat board for the 2nd time and as always it was well displayed and good! Give this place a try and if you come alone like I did I know you'll feel comfortable enjoying your own space yet not lonely with how sweet the staff is! Thank you ristrettos staff for being so kind and friendly and even engaging in a friendly conversation in the little time you have to offer even a 30sec interaction beyond taking an order and moving on. For someone like myself who isn't used to Dining alone or nervous about it you have made me so comfortable,feel safe , and want to continue to come back! It's like I have friends for the enjoyment of my time lol

This was my first visiting Ristrettos. We went to enjoy a brunch and glass of wine. This place was already hopping with a Friday 11am crowd. When we walked in, it was a relaxing casual atmosphere. We grab our menus and found our table (full table service starts 3pm and after). Ristrettos offer a variety of foods and drinks in their menu. Once we decided on our selection we went up to the counter to order. The very friendly gal behind the counter introduced herself as one of the owners and was very excited to know this was our first time. We ordered an Assortamento Board, fig & brie crostini, chop chop salad, and cheese panini. Our refreshment were coke, mama mango wine, and their house red blend wine. OH! MAN! The board and the crostini were perfectly delicious! Really, we could have done with just those two items. The meats. The cheese. The nuts. The craisins. All so very enjoyable. Great selection of Italian meats. Smooth and creamy goat cheese. I believe the other cheese was Asiago, but not 100% sure. The Fig & Brie Crostini was absolutely delicious! The cheese panini was as a combination of creamy cheddar and Swiss cheeses. My dad said it was a very good sandwich. It was served with chips. The Chop Chop Salad was perfect by my opinion. Thinly sliced lettuce, small cutes of salami, finely chopped red peppers, tomatoes, red opinion, parmesan cheese, and house made cilantro jalapeño dressing. I highly recommend giving this coffee & wine bar a try. I do believe you also will enjoy this place. (The sun was casting shadows on my pictures)

PSA for all parents of hungry kids out there. If your kids are craving Mac n cheese and your at Ristrettos you may want to get them the adult size or 4 orders of the kids size. As you can see this should be called an infant's Mac and cheese. I thought it had to be a mistake so I asked if this was the correct portion size and they told me "yes, that is the kids size". This was 8$! Needless to say my son finished it in 3 bites and was still hungry and never wants me to come back here again. All food was decent (nothing great) just want to help all the other not make the same mistake I made.
