- GGinnyPortland / Oregon •3 reviews5.0Dined 3 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

Seattle’s International District serves as the center of the city’s diverse Asian-American community, which includes Chinatown, Japantown and Little Saigon.

When you venture into Japantown, you’ll discover Japanese delights that include everything from sushi to tempura, but it's Little Saigon that will truly surprise you. Here you can enjoy upscale dining while feasting on pho or banh mi, or you could easily find yourself in a local deli waiting for your spring rolls.
