The Urban Spoon Reviews

Wonderful Staff and Amazing Service. Seafood was Excellent. Recommend outdoor seating for a cozy view of the Bay. A Hidden Gem of Seattle.

Went for New Years Eve, they had a prix fixe menu, and it was delicious! I definitely want to go again some time, both for the food, and I'd like to see an aerial performance on one of the days they have that.

Love this place. I had the steak and my wife had the linguine with clams. Could not have tasted any better.

So good !

Great live music. You could spend the entire evening there with good friends.

Today was my first visit to The Pink Door and I was pleasantly surprised. Looking up the address on google maps, we walked down an alley where it said we had arrived at our destination and I couldn't find the entrance. And then, there it was! A pink door. What I expected to be a small hole-in-the-wall type of restaurant, turned out to be this huge, fancy, classy restaurant , with a live Ariel acrobat show that was going on. I was amazed at how big the place was. I like how there were different themes and settings within the same restaurant. The dimly lit area at the entrance, an outdoor area with seating and another huge brightly lit area with a beautiful water view. They have an entertainment menu so make note that if you are interested in any of the entertainment, specify that while making your reservation on the phone because it is accessible/ visible only from certain sections of the restaurant. We got lucky to get a glimpse of the show on our way in.

The service was great and All the food that we tried today was really good - the Italian cream soda, the stuffed fried rice balls, crab cake and grilled salmon.

Will definitely go back and I strongly recommend it!

Very fun place with nice patio. Food was good but not fantastic.

Amazing good
Nice live music

They change the menu every season...

Lasagna had spinach in between the layers and it was tasty!!
northwestern fish of the day (for today it was scallops), the chef's special creation, was the highlight!!

Really delicious food and amazing service. The views outside are beautiful and the seating is airy

This is my happy place! Amazing ambieance great live music and super food. I like the fact that they serve vegetarian lasagne that too super delicious

The lasagna was fine. It's delicious. I have to go.

Delightful meal and drinks. Love the ambiance and the staff were very friendly.

Impeccable service and high quality, well-prepared food. It's a little hard to miss, but be sure not to.

I had the poolside cocktail and the pink door lasagna, both were delicious. The service was also fast, I got there right when they opened

Great patio area. Even better food and you can view the menu and pay on your phone. Felt very comfortable here during the restrictions. Will definitely be back soon.

I love the atmosphere of this restaurant! Dreamy candles and music. They food is delicious and comforting.

Beautiful new expanded dining room, elegant casual, nice view of Pike Place Market and the harbour, plus very good food and service.

Incredible restaurant. Pasta is to die for. Can t wait to go back

the food is great haven't been to see the show. Only thing I would change is the cramped dining area

This prefer is great. The food is wonderful and the prices are reasonable. The show is pretty good as well. I will say that you have to actually stand in line outside because they seat you based on where you are in line and your party size. If you go wait out of the reason the line will get long and you won't get a great table near the stage. We got there super early and still weren't seated bc we were told to go wait underneath the alley roof but then we didn't have a place in line. I think the guy should have told us to be back in line or warned us but either way we had a good time.

Very good food, super rich .. Service a bit poor. The host very bad and the waitress a little less but with a bad temper ..

Food was great, experience was unique, and the service was top notch. We really enjoyed our meal here. We were here on a night without entertainment, but would be interesting to experience that as well

Very cool space with different rooms and ambience - if the weather is nice try to get seated on the deck. Live music adds to the experience. Only visited once and food was good not great, same with wine selection. Had the spinach lasagna which was way too creamy for my taste. Busy place - make sure you book a reservation!

Starting with the service and ending with dessert, this is one of the best restaurants I've dined. Our waiter was terrific; great sense of humor and excellent recommendations. We started with the oysters which were fresh and flavorful. I had the cioppino and was not disappointed. It was ridiculously delicious. The best I've ever eaten. My daughter had the muscles and clams in white wine sauce. She was in heaven. Although full, we knew we had to taste the dessert. I ordered the ricotta cheese cake on the waiter's recommendation, and my daughter ordered the trio of ice creams. Again, just perfection. We are adding The Pink Door to our list of absolute favorites.

Look for the pink metal door in the alley way. Has trapeze performances on Thursday I believe

AMAZING food and prices! Can't get enough of their Chicken Breast Kebab, Gyro Wrap and Whole Chicken. Have never been disappointed.

Had a fun time with my wife at the burlesque show down in the bar years ago. Would like to go back soon.

If you ever go here, don t forget to try their Lasagna Pink Door. It s one of the best lasagnas I ever had. It tasted so good that we ended up ordering one more serving, never have I ever done that in a restaurant before!

Fantastic hidden gem! After hosting some locals from Seattle at work and hearing their suggestions for our upcoming trip, my boyfriend and I decided to go to the Pink Door on our last day. The food was incredible, the etiquette in regards to keeping both us as well as staff was impeccable and our server, Eric was thorough, informative and wonderfully polite!

One of the best meals of my life. I had the Butternut Squash Agnolotti and it was to die for. My desert was just as magical - the Maple Creme Brule. As a Canadian, I was obsessed with this. The service was remarkable. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and helpful, offering us suggestions and pairing the entire way. The restaurant has a really awesome vibe - old, classic & edgy. I cannot wait to come back!

Great atmosphere. Good service. Went in the evening with the wife, great views and laid back romantic vibe.

The food is Ok. I was not impressed but it wasn't bad either. It can take a while for them to serve you so make sure you call in before, drinks are good a little overpriced but they are good, in my opinion not worth the money.

Reservation 1 week in advance if you want to have a table

So happy my boyfriend and I chose this place to celebrate our 3 years together. It was really hard to find but it was worth the walking around lol. The decor was like nothing I've ever seen , i felt cozy and welcomed . The people working here are the nicest staff ever. The lasagna is to die for !!! Hands down the most delicious food I've ever had . I can not wait to visit Seattle again and stop by The Pink Door . Y'all are awesome !!

The ambiance was wonderful, the food was good, and the waitress was a little too snooty.

Good Italian restaurant with excellent service. I keep the address for my next visit to Seattle.

After 4 unsuccessful attempts of getting a reservation here, I finally made it in!! That felt like a mini accomplishment on its own. First of, the ambience is beautiful and I was so happy Seattle decided to show me its sunny side just the day I went here and sat outdoors. The cheese platter was scrumptious. Every pairing for the different cheeses was yummy. We had the spinach lasagne with a side of chicken breast and the Pappardelle al ragu. Needless to say this place lives upto it s reputation and both the dishes had me salivating and thoroughly satisfied. The desserts we tried were the Panna Cotta and the strawberry tiramisu. I have truly never had better Panna Cotta in my life. The strawberries were so fresh and juicy and the tiramisu was so damn good. Can t wait to go back here.

Five people, full meals, not a crumb left on any plate! That says it all. Maybe my favorite meal so far in Seattle, and I'm a top 1% guide for Seattle!

I enjoyed the house specialty, veg lasagna, shaved brussel sprouts, flourless chocolate cake, but tried the smooth, creamy and rich seasonal chocolate mint pudding, and the gelato trio from Gelatiamo - salted caramel is amazing!

The bread was fresh, chewy and delicious with butter, although not warm. The olive oil was authentic and so good. Everyone liked their specialty drinks, especially the Sophisticated Lady.

Wonderful Anniversary dinner with delicious food and attentive service. Best Lemon Verbana Short Cake I've ever tasted. Lasagna is a solid standard. The King Salmon Special was well seasoned and beautifully presented!

The dishes of the restaurant are delicious, especially the zania

Here I thought, given this restaurant was heavily reviewed as one of the best restaurants downtown, I was shocked and sick beyond belief that I got crummy food. The stuffed rivoli and something else was so disgusting I almost wanted to stop, but no, I continued on and finished the food. After 15 minutes I got so sick that I had diarrhea. I am so angry that spent over 20 dollars for this horrible food.

Never going back again.

However, one highlight that I must say that I enjoyed was the entertainment from the trapeze woman. She was the one and only good thing that came from that restaurant.

Not Authentic Italian Food....dont waste your money or time. It's all hype!!

Best Italian in Seattle! Definitely a place I like to take my friends from out of town. They're always impressed. The space is beautiful, love the outdoor patio too. Very romantic!

Happened upon this place on a recent trip to Seattle. The Pike Place Market is great for a quick bite or grocery trip, but this restaurant was unexpectedly refined. Fantastic service at the bar. I was initially leaning toward a more traditional Italian meal, but once the bartender informed me of the seafood special, I was sold. Dish featured wild-caught salmon and foraged mushrooms. I had high expectations for the fish, and it did not disappoint. Wonderful balance of flavors, absolutely divine meal. Lovely experience, highly recommend this spot.

So worth it. It was an incredibly cool atmosphere and the food was just as amazing. A must see in Seattle!

The food, atmosphere, and service were fantastic here. I honestly came into this place will medium expectations knowing that it was somewhat touristy since it's famous and has been around for so long in Seattle. However, the moment we stepped into the restaurant, my perception changed. The whole place is dimly lit with dripping wax candles, decadent chandeliers, and vintage Italian decor which gives it a very Euro romantic ambiance. Service was on par and the food was phenomenal. Being a seafood and Italian cuisine lover, I was on cloud nine. Standouts of the night include the clam linguini and squid ink pasta which were both very reasonably priced considering the amazing food, the gorgeous views of Elliott Bay, and the short but sweet trapeze performance presented in the lounge.

Surprisingly they have wonderful vegetarian options as well :) CASARECCE ALLA NORMA and WINTER RISOTTO was awesome. The interior and the ambience is beautiful :)

Really cool decor and a fun atmosphere. Though mainly Italian fare which can be difficult for vegans and vegetarians, the wait staff was very knowledgeable about what fit the dietary restrictions of our party!

Really great Italian food. Hard to find but the name should help.

A little on the expensive side. Must try their boob cake it brilliant!

We ate here while visiting friends, the food was amazing, the service was very friendly and we will certainly go back.

The food, drinks, service and ambiance, live music or acrobat burlesque shows, makes this place the place to be! I love that it's a secret door in an alley.. A true gem of an eatery. That's why I went here for my anniversary. Five thumbs up!

Thanks to the decision in the 60s not to tear down the old this is a unique very Seattle experience. From the complete absence of any signs or menus outside indicating this it's even a restaurant to the somewhat unusual but very entertaining staff and diverse crowd this a great escape from the usual too cool dining experience.

Very cool Speakeasy. Upon entering the unmarked door, you arrive with a nice view of the restaurant spread out below you. The service was excellent. The food very good... highly recommend the Tuna Cudo for app. The highlight of the evening was watching the acrobat thru three shows... REALLY cool and definitely worth the visit just to see. I would have liked more of the old prohibition era music. (Only did one act to that style.) Fun night! Not your normal dinner... Expensive but recommend.

So the service and the atmosphere is top notch. 5 Stars for sure.

I had the rigatoni with meatballs and it was good but nothing amazing.

I also had the mussels and clams in the garlic white wine sauce and that was excellent!

Overall if I could do 4.5 Stars I would do that because the pasta was just ok. But I ll give it 5 because the restaurant was so cool and the service was absolutely amazing. We had 2 babies with strollers but they made a pretty good effort to make everything fit!

Our server was David and he was amazing!

Beautiful setting overlooking the Puget Sound. The ambience and service is high end. Food place for seafood and meat lovers, but very limited choice for the vegetarians. It was pricy for vegetarian food. Be careful before ordering wines, as the server may bring a glass of the most expensive wine and you will be surprised when the bill comes.

I went to this place by luck. And it was just perfect. A little funky, great service, great food. Next time I'm back in Seattle this is the one place I would be sure not to miss.

The food was by the best Italian restaurant in the area and so chic with all the decorations and beautiful trapeze performance!

Great place to eat in. Nice ambience with live acrobatics show in evening every 45 min or so. If you are a fish lover this is the place for you to be. They have fresh fish every morning, which will be special for a day.

It came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Food excellent, service great. Reservation required at least the day before.

The service 5 stars! The atmosphere 5 stars! The food 5 stars. We had the lobster ravioli appetizer. So creamy and rich. We shared it. We had the ceasar salad. The crunchy lettuce, creamy dressing, the perfectly seasoned croutons. We shared this too. We had the lasagne. How you can make a lasagna that melt sin your mouth. You taste every layer. It has the perfect amount of cheese so as not to be overwhelming. We shared it. A side of meatballs with marinara sauce. The meatballs did not taste like a dense pressed hunk of meat. They were fresh and flavorful. We shared them. The view, the wine, The Pink Door. It's a must.

We have been going here for the finest food and service anywhere. Bar none. This is THE place to eat in Seattle. Mind you the prices are not cheap, but this place is absolutely the Best anywhere. Don't think about it, just go and enjoy!!

This place is really amazing. Specially veg lasagna. Awesome ambiance for couples. Make sure to book in advance, if didnt then try to checkout their wait line before making any plans l. This is really busy during weekends eve.

Nice Place. Great atmosphere. Food is yummy and the prices are good! Great choice when friends and family are visiting.

Bought tickets for a show. Ended up needing a refund which they listed as being able to get at a managers discretion. When I called they took down my name and number and promised to call back. I called back multiple times after not hearing anything, and each time I heard a different excuse of why I hadn't been contacted. If you can't refund people, just tell them. Its been over a week and I've received no communication. Save your money for Can Can.

Best dinner and a show, hands down! Ask for Jake, he is the best waiter.

Love this place. Fantastic decor and fun atmosphere. Delicious food!

The food quality was really good. My children loved Bolognese pasta and Bologna pasta. The interior was lovely. But, our server was not nice. He ignored every single word that my husband said. He was really kind and nice to white. Our mood was ruined because of him. We felt really terrible about his disrespectful manners.
