The chicken was not as I anticipated. None of the food was seasoned. The chopped salad was good but small for $18.00. Had to ask server for everything instead of the person checking in with us and it was a slow evening.

Made a Sunday brunch reservation based on reviews. The adorable restaurant was better than expected. The interior was cozy and lovely, but with the beautiful weather, we opted for a patio table. The food was delicious, and service was accommodating. New favorite gem for lunch.

We had a group of four with a brunch reservation. I picked the restaurant for its outside patio. The patio was perfect and we’re seated promptly. (We did get the 90 minute limit warning from the hostess). After being seated we did get water pretty quickly and we’re told the waiter would be over soon. Se did have to wait for around ten minutes for the waiter and it was only to tell us he would be right back. At about 15 minutes on we were able to get our drink orders in. The raspberry mimosa was great!! The server was okay and got our order in around the 30 minute mark. I did ask for a substitution for a biscuit instead of an English muffin and he said he would see if that was possible. When the door came out one of the two of us who asked for the substitution, so maybe he didn’t hear the other guest. The food was good, but not as great as we were expecting (which may be on us for the quality of chef behind the restaurant). Overall, we would go back for the atmosphere and food with an average for the area price point.

This is such a great restaurant!! We’ve been in town twice from CA for sailing regattas here this summer. We were staying at the Ambassador Hotel, so Blue Door was an easy walk for us. Everyone in our group really enjoyed their meals. Fish, salads, soups - everything was great, in a really charming environment, whether in the restaurant or outside in the garden. We’ll always be back when we’re in town. Thanks!

It was ... fine. We sat inside; most people were sitting outside. So that was nice. The interior was mostly empty. It started filling up just as we were getting ready to leave. Perfect timing, that. We shared the crab cake, which was more like a flaccid crab pancake and not very crab-y for $20. My guest enjoyed her fried chicken (hot sauce on the side; she asked for the rest to be put in a to-go bag; the busser brought her a little box; we asked our server if they might have a bag for her to carry it home in; he scrunched up his face, as if to say, "He should have brought one," and brought one to us), and the smoked duck was nice, if a bit tough/overcooked in a few bites. The warm potato salad wasn't. Warm, that is. It did contain fingerling potatoes. The key lime pie was a lovely texture, though I left the slab of upright crust on my plate. My guest enjoyed her hummingbird cake and took part of it home to enjoy with coffee this morning. We didn't have any alcohol, just water. And the bill, before tip, was $115. A bit steep for what we had. But the space is pleasant and the flatware is nice. I like heavy flatware.

This was our last stop before the airport. They were gracious enough to help us store our luggage while we had a lovely leisurely lunch. The cocktails were 5 ⭐️.
