Chef and restaurateur Brian Clevenger has a fondness for Seattle's Eastlake neighborhood. It's the first place he lived when he moved to the city and is now home to his newest restaurant. Le Messe, Italian for harvest, stays true to what Clevenger does best — simple, good food. The menu features an assortment of house extruded pastas, fresh vegetables and a variety of seafood. The ingredients are locally sourced and change with the seasons.

Inside the restaurant, you'll find seating for 50 including a chef's counter where diner's can enjoy the full menu as well as additional daily selections. The outdoor patio, which opens at the end of July, comes with peek-a-boo views of the Space needle.
