Description

With its perch above Pike Place Market and a menu studded with salads and risottos, the 30-year old Pink Door has all the trappings of a destination for ladies who lunch. It's pretty tough to beat the outdoor seating at the Pink Door, one of the only Market spots that stays packed from July through August, but never feels like a tourist trap. The Italian-leaning market cuisine at this popular trattoria doesn't shy away from pow-wham-bang cookery. Gorgonzola spread is served with two ripe heads of roasted garlic and an antipasto platter is freighted with pickled hot peppers. With its dim lighting and cabaret motif, it's tough to find a spot better suited for guzzling gallons of wine and chowing down on pasta.
