Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in South Park

Never a bad view of the city skyline. Food and service were great. The manager came by the table and offered an even better view than we already had, we gladly accepted. We eat there for special occasions. We also attended a beautiful wedding there last summer, which was spectacular!

Great service and food. Servers & staff were very friendly, helpful and responsive. Definitely recommend.

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.

We went to That's Amore twice in the past 2 weeks, it's that good. The first time we didn't have a reservation, but were able to sit at their small (4 seat) bar and chat up the owner, Guy (who's a really nice Guy)! Our recent visit we were lucky to get a window seat, even though it's hard to see the view at night. There was a family birthday celebration at the table behind us, hence the "moderate" noise level. The servers are excellent. The food is consistently good. My friend's "fresh catch" was halibut on risotto, and while a generous portion, she thought it was a touch dry. I told our server that I couldn't decide on the Alfredo with chicken or the chicken parmesan, and she said I could have both! So they put my chicken parm on top of Alfredo; simply delicious. My only complain is that they have a $35 corkage fee; I'd rather it be $25, but next time I'll try one of their bottles. Highly recommended...but you do need a reservation!

The food was over the top amazing! I had the chopped Duke salad with scallops and shrimp and my husband had the cioppino which he said was the best he’d ever had. Service was excellent. Only downside for me was the noise level which was intense. Guess it’s because it’s such a popular place but really wish there was a way to make it less noisy. I don’t know how other popular restaurants do it. I honestly think that we would have eaten there again tonight since we were still in the area, but I couldn’t stomach the noise.
