| About: | No signs lead to this romantic hideaway near Pike Place Market , but when you see the pink door itself, you'll know you've arrived. On a sunny day you can sit outside on the rooftop deck, where shorts, sunglasses and lively chatter run rampant and everyone seems rejuvenated by the awesome backdrop of Elliot Bay. The rustic Italian cuisine includes a variety of delicious pastas and specials. The Cioppino and the spinach stuffed pork loin are especially good. The restaurant features cabaret and other live entertainment. Please call ahead for hours. |

I'd say this place is just so-so. We came on a Thursday night when the restaurant wasn't very busy. We didn't have reservations, so they ushered us away from the white-tablecloth room with atmosphere and instead sat us in the "casual" side of the restaurant, where an eastern European jazz band was setting up and the atmosphere was sorely lacking. The table was tiny and my chair was almost hitting the guy behind me. The service was alright, but certainly nothing exceptional. The food was good, but my wife's chicken had a sauce on it that wasn't mentioned in the menu, which was not so good. The wine list was decent - it's nice having a "karafe" option. Desert was tasty. All in all, I'd say this place gets by on its quirky reputation, and definitely not for the service or atmosphere. Probably a better option as a lunch place, I don't think I'd go back for dinner.
Date-friendly atmosphere, pleasant service, and reasonable prices. The menu had some interesting-sounding items, but nothing we ordered could be called above average.
Great Date Place: Great service, great food, and if you sit outside during the summer, it has one of the best views of the sound.
