Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Green Lake

Spectacular meal with incredible service. I was a bit disappointed by the dessert selection, but I'm a pastry chef with high standards and an Italian background. Very beautiful environment and the staff treated us well at every interaction. Will absolutely return here.

Everything the four of us ordered was beautiful and delicious! I had steak tartare, which is hard to find in this town, and was the perfect combination of egg, arugula pesto, and mustard, served with lovely, toasted baguette slices. My partner had miso cod with asparagus -- my, oh my! He let me have a bite, and it was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Don't get me started on the desserts. We shared bread pudding and cheesecake -- both lovely. The bartender made me a lovely Perfect Manhattan. Only disappointment was that there weren't as many beers on tap as usual, but what they had was satisfying. Love this place and the wonderful staff!

This was our first time at the Pink Door, one night I will never forget. From the moment we arrived the ambience made the experience feel classy. The decorations and lighting throughout fit the mood. Customer service and special request were accommodated positively and without hesitation. The menu was simple but not lacking, wasn’t an overwhelming amount to decide nor was it too small to not have options. The food was made at a high level with attention to detail and exquisite taste. It is where I proposed to my now fiancé and provided a night I can’t forget and will be somewhere we come for our special days. Go to the pink door, you will not be disappointed.

The food is consistently amazing and the service is also incredibly reliable. Always visit Nell’s when we are in Seattle.

Such a lovely night and dining experience all the way around. Food and drinks were absolutely exceptional. Service - wonderful: attentive but not intrusive. Ambiance…lovely, but just a bit chilly by the front door. Looking forward to returning soon.
