The new Lombardi’s Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar opens this Wednesday, September 12th in Mill Creek, WA on the Bothell-Everett Highway. Fans of the former Ballard restaurant will be happy to know that favorite dishes like Saltimboca, Tortellini Gorgonzola & Veal Picatta will be served at the new location. The new restaurant features an open kitchen with a hearth stone oven & will serve up Neapolitan-inspired pizzas like the Toscana — sun-dried tomatoes, kalamata olives, goat cheese, olive oil & fresh basil.
As always, Lombardi’s will have an extensive list of wines by the glass — 18 to be exact! — as well as cask wines & wine flights that will show off great wines such as Rocca delle Macie’s Chianti Classico or Haystack Needle’s Syrah. The bar will also feature local spirits like Woodinville Whiskey, Sun Liquor & Bainbridge Organic in specialty cocktails such as the “Local Long Island” — featuring Bainbridge Organic Vodka, Voyager Gin, and Pacific Rum with the usual splash of triple sec, sour mix and Coke.
Happy hour in the bar area is 3 to 6PM & 8PM-close every day with wines for $4.50, draft beer for $4 & noshes like the Salumi Plate for $6 and pizzas for $7. In the bar area you will find a big fireplace to cozy up to on those rainy nights in November! Do tell.
The Mill Creek location is the third Lombardi’s restaurant (other locations in Issaquah & Everett). Mother-daughter business team Diane Symms & Kerri Lonergan-Dreke are excited about the new location & meeting a whole new family of guests.
“As a locally-owned business for over 25 years, we are eager to get to know our new Mill Creek community, and maybe even see some familiar faces. We are proud of our commitment to delicious food, great wine and exceptional service, and hope to share our wonderful food and atmosphere for date nights, happy hours, birthdays, and other celebrations,” says Lonergan-Dreke.

I’m looking forward to the new Lombardi’s, having loved the location in Issaquah! Now that the weather is turning cooler, with the leaves turning and the crisp air, it’s time for fall season gardening and, afterwards, a glass of Chianti! Happy Fall!
