THE PINK DOOR REVIEWS

The food was very heavy and filling! It’s quite pricey, but the ingredients are high quality and the dishes are made extremely well. The flavor was great for every single dish. The vibe was amazinggg! Very romantic and fun to go with friends. The service was great & friendly! The food also came out reasonably fast. Make sure to make a reservation.

Excellent Italian fine dining restaurant. A big menu with a lot of seafood and quite a bit vegetarian options awaits. Ambience is really nice with loads of table seating options. The pink door lasagna was really delicious with a tinge of their signature basil pesto. We tried the king salmon special fish for the day which was done really well do. The local Branzino for the day looked great too. Highly recommend stopping by when at Seattle! Tables can be quite hard to find.

The entire dining experience was great! We had a birthday dinner here with a best ambience. They seem to have a lot of vegetarian options which can customized to have ur own protein. The food was delicious made with super fresh ingredients. Will definitely visit again.

BAROLO RISTORANTE REVIEWS

This Italian spot is really nice and super convenient with the bar open until midnight. I had the risotto, which had great flavor, but I’m used to a thicker, creamier version—this one was looser, which they explained is more Sicilian style (the shell on top is just the shell, no extra lobster there). My husband had the gnocchi, which was very good. The real highlights were the tiramisu and the chocolate tartino cake—both were absolutely amazing.

We were a large party of 13. The waiter was impeccable. He made several wonderful suggestions. All in our party were sufficiently satisfied. The drinks were wonderful as well. Definitely will have to return here.

We came here for Valentine’s Day and it was amazing. Super classy vibes and the food was great. Call ahead and make reservations because this place is booked and busy.

SPINASSE REVIEWS

Spinasse was in my list of restaurants to visit ever since I’ve been in Seattle. It’s widely regarded as the best italian restaurant here. I chose to celebrate here for my birthday dinner. The service was top notch. We ordered toni negroni, martinez cocktail, cavatelli, tagarin with beef ragu, chocolate cake and bibb lettuce salad. This is the best pasta I’ve had in my life. Buttery smooth tagarin and perfectly al dente cavatelli. The martinez cocktail was really strong. Toni negroni mocktail was really smooth. The salad was fresh and bright. The chocolate cake was a luxurious end to our brilliant meal. The hype is real and the staff is always on their A game. Bravo.

The tasting menu with wine pairing was incredible—great variety, bold flavors, and generous portions! The digestive liqueurs were also a highlight, especially the chamomile one. Amazing atmosphere and excellent service. Highly recommend.

Best pasta I have ever had! The butter and sage was phenomenal! Cannot recommend enough! Duck confit appetizer was also amazing! Ambiance was wonderful and comforting, service was terrific, 10/10! Make a reservation.
