- RRexWashington, D.C. Area •5 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoSuperb, as usual. The carrot sformato was an unusual find and quite delicious. The addition of olives to the blood orange and fennel salad hit just the right acid note, Mama’s meatballs were pure beef with a strong dash of anise seed, and the accompanying marinara had been simmering for ages to pick up that deep complexity of flavors and great balance between sweet and slightly acid.More infoThe Pink DoorPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Belltown / Pike Place Market•4.8
- CChristineNew York City •7 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoThe food here exceeded our expectations, everything was really, really good. We had ahi crudo, carrots, polenta fries, and focaccia to start, and then 3 pastas and the scallops. Everything was delicious, well presented and excellent presentation. The waiter was lovely and very informative. And the prices while a bit high were worth it.More infoAutumn SeattlePrice: Expensive• American• Phinney Ridge•4.7
- GGarySeattle / Eastern Washington •3 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoWonderful venue to celebrate a special occasion (like a spouse’s birthday)! Service is top-notch and the food is nicely prepared & presented. This couple shared one appetizer, one small plate, the sturgeon entree, and a key lime pie—very satisfying! Do request bread for dipping into the sauce if you get the mussels.More infoRockCreek Seafood & Spirits - SeattlePrice: Expensive• Seafood• Fremont•4.7
- CChristineSeattle / Eastern Washington •15 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 21, 2024This dining experience was novel and a joy. The chef combined flavors creating tastes we had never had before. Sometimes it was a bit overwhelming (like the garlic on the Chinese broccoli), but we were glad we had ordered it and after pushing the garlic aside, ate every bite. Try the octopus -- absolutely delicious and not at all like the typical calamari you get in local restaurants. Our server was very cordial, had a great sense of humor, and increased our enjoyment.More infoJoulePrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Wallingford•4.8
