oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of Belltown. As you step into the

Sicilian cuisine in the air. La Fontana has been a fixture in Belltown
for over a decade. Proprietor Mario Fuenzalida’s food philosophy of

library tables that are individually light and adorned with fresh
flowers. As your eyes wander around the restaurant you will be
delighted as you discover old family photos and heirlooms adorning the
brick walls. At La Fontana the atmosphere and the cuisine mesh
together harmoniously. The service is courteous and the staff is
knowledgeable, don’t be shy to ask for wine recommendations the staff

Pass under the pergola, through the
picturesque fountain courtyard and you’ll find La Fontana (“the
fountain”) celebrating the cuisine of Sicily. The atmosphere is
cozy and inviting, true to Fuenzalida’s credo that, “A
restaurant must have more life than just the food.” Coveted
family treasures and artwork compete for prominence on the walls
and shelves in three adjoining brick-walled rooms. Glass covered
antique library tables are spaced for privacy, each softly
illuminated by a small lamp. Strains of opera fill the room,
completing the mood and piquing your appetite for hearty Italian
fare. |
