Best Live Music Restaurants in Bainbridge Island

This was our first time at the Pink Door, one night I will never forget. From the moment we arrived the ambience made the experience feel classy. The decorations and lighting throughout fit the mood. Customer service and special request were accommodated positively and without hesitation. The menu was simple but not lacking, wasn’t an overwhelming amount to decide nor was it too small to not have options. The food was made at a high level with attention to detail and exquisite taste. It is where I proposed to my now fiancé and provided a night I can’t forget and will be somewhere we come for our special days. Go to the pink door, you will not be disappointed.

The food was SO good. You can tell a real Italian chef works there. The calamari (not breaded) was tender and delicious. I got the beef and pork bolognese and it was the perfect portion size and very flavorful. It was perfect meal for such a cold day. I'm not sure what my husband got, but it was a pasta that was also delicious. The ambience was also so cozy. There's this beautiful wood paneling every where that made you feel like you were stepping back in time and there was a really good pianist that made it all feel luxurious. They also had a real Christmas tree which smelled amazing and added to the cozy feel. The host was so sweet, but the service (waiter) overall wasn't great. He rolled his eyes and walked away when I asked him if they could make a new york sour (which is a common and not difficult drink). It then took extra long to get the drink. Actually both the first and second drinks took well over 20 min (each) despite the restaurant being half empty. It's not a big deal, it just rubbed me the wrong way.

Great food and service. Interesting menu, cool place.

food was excellent, room was beautiful, very chic. the service was unbelievable, really one of the best experiences we have had.

Palisade is the best! I look forward to taking going here with my family every time I’m in Seattle. The food is prepared perfectly! We had 3 different seafood dishes and each one was perfectly done- moist, flakey, and with great flavors that complimented each fish (that would be black cod, king salmon, and Chilean sea bass). Service is attentive without being intrusive. Brian saw to it that from water to dessert, we were satisfied. Music started to get too loud to talk, but the manager remedied that quickly. We were then able to enjoy conversation and the live music. With the view of the marina and downtown Seattle plus all of good food and service, we are always satisfied.
