Seattle’s Best Restaurants For Dinner With The Parents - Seattle - The Infatuation
"If you’re actually on top of things and are preparing for your parents’ arrival weeks in advance, The Pink Door is the part-burlesque circus, part-Italian trattoria where you should absolutely take them. It’s smack in the middle of Pike Place Market, so it’s a prime location for post-sightseeing crudo, caesar salads, and incredible housemade pastas. An order of fettunta (fancy grilled garlic bread) is mandatory for the table, and get the fresh spinach lasagna to give your parents the best day of their lives (next to the day you were born). You can get a reservation starting 30 days in advance, but if you try for something last-minute, you'll probably be left with tables for a late lunch at 3pm. If you try and book three weeks ahead of time, you'll usually be able to snag a late dinner at 9pm." - aimee rizzo
