- MMarcSeattle / Eastern Washington •7 reviews4.0Dined 1 day agoFood was excellent as always, however, the Thurston Wolfe GSM [Grenache Syrah Malbec? not the Mouvedre used in southern France) that was recommended by the bar as a substitute for the Tempranillo did not fly well with the meat dishes. The Corsican vermentinu was excellent with the fish dishes - crisp, dry. The dessert carrot cake is what all carrot cakes dream to be, the gingerbread ice cream is spicy, and the chocolate garnache is for chocaholics!More infoCaptain Whidbey RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Northwest• Whidbey Island•4.8
- GGinnyPortland / Oregon •3 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoBooked our table a month ago, was really excited to visit, The pink door doesn’t let us down. The Food was soooo good and we definitely ordered too much for two, we went straight with 4 Fresh Northwest oysters, Bagna Cauda(Hot Bath), Squid Ink Tonnarelli and Mama’s Meatballs; end up packing it for dinner the night as well, but it was so satisfying. Bagna Cauda (Hot bath) is the most amazing, knowing it’s just a “dip” for veggie, however, it’s different —- you have to try it to know how good it is.More infoThe Pink DoorPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Belltown / Pike Place Market•4.8
- AAmarayahSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoLate reservation Friday, weekend before Christmas. Scallops as an app, amazing! Out of prime, no problem ordered the ribeye, the other half was on the fence anyway. Delicious as usual, ordered crabcakes with our entree as an afterthought. There were a few holiday parties happening so it was loud, fun, definitely a good time. Chocolate cake for desert it was amazing! Our server was wonderful i forgot her name though...The crab cakes were unexpectedly comped, that was a very nice surprise.More info13moonsPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Anacortes•4.8
