- 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.

- AAmberSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoWe had a slightly rowdy group of 8 adults celebrating a birthday. Our table was ready for us when we got there, our server was amazing, food was good and came out quickly and the beverages did not disappoint. Our birthday boy received a  complementary dessert and our server joined in to sing him happy birthday. We would 100% recommend this spot to anyone looking for a casual dining location.

- KKevinSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined on Dec 28, 2024First time going to Tutta Bella. We were at the Wallingford location. The parking lot is small, so be prepared to park on the street. We had a reservation for 5 people and arrived 10 minutes early. They had our table set and ready for us. When first walking in we first noticed amazing smells. The staff were courteous and sat us immediately. The decor and ambiance is urban casual. Noise level is moderate. We had drinks and appetizers which we all liked. The menu is limited to some salads, pizza and pasta dishes. My wife and I each had a pasta dish which was very good. My son and daughter each had pizza which had a good crust and the flavors were quite good. We will go there again when in the area. Wish they would open up a location where we live in Bellingham.More infoTutta Bella - WallingfordPrice: Moderate• Italian• Wallingford•4.5
