- MMichaelVancouver / British Columbia •15 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoYou have to know what you are looking for or use GPS to find the Pink Door. It has a speakeasy feel to it. Loved the ambiance and everything about the place. We ate in the lounge where the entertainment was, which was great. For a more formal experience try the dining room at the back. It has the views. The Pink Door offers a wonderful evening of food and entertainment. Our server Dina was great.More infoThe Pink DoorPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Belltown / Pike Place Market•4.8

Food was good, our party of 4 had smash burger, grilled cheese, pulled pork sandwich & the turkey club. Got us in & out within an hour just in time for the Christmas show at the stadium. Great location for events at the stadium with 2 hours parking complimentary. Only issue was that it was a little bright inside, wish the lights had been dimmed.More infoJimmy's on FirstPrice: Moderate• American• Downtown•3.8
