The servers were friendly, knowledgeable and very professional. I ordered the Peking duck which requires extra time to cook and the kitchen and wait staff planned it perfectly to have it come out at the same time as my husband’s dinner. The duck was delicious. I also had the French onion soup which was perfect. The drinks were imaginative and tasty. All just fabulous. I’m sure we will be back.

It must be a breakfast place only. Very expensive. My husband’s drink felt Like it was missing vermouth. My drink the English Garden was supposed to have cucumber. I only tasted sugar. 1/3 dished was good. The main pasta was very good. But still not worth $40. The meatball was tough, very hard. The risotto was just ok.

This is the third time I’ve experience the dinner service. It has been consistent and excellent all three times. I love the mushroom ravioli. The Pekin duck was perfectly prepared and presented. And the rhubarb shortcake was delicious.

My first time here... and not the last! We had as fabulous time here! Delicious food from our appetizer through the entrees and my dessert. Our server was friendly, helpful, and engaging. Food arrived hot and full of flavor and textures, and a beautiful presentation. We loved the intimate dining setting. A wonderful experience!

One of our meals was delicious. The other one came out cold and took to long to remake but the one that was good was enough to share. The price point at Blue Door is great for how good the food is. 2 people can get a delicious meal with drinks for just under $200.

French onion soup was it soup or onion gravy? The Philly cheese was so heavy with cheese wiz, I suggest provolone. The meat does not have the flavor it should although tender. Left the restaurant as if I ate in the kitchen (my clothes smell so bad).

Always excellent here!! Service was wonderful and food was amazing. The dinner menu has expanded and includes so many yummy choices! Wine and cocktail list is very good and desserts are the best, especially the chocolate soufflé. Consistently good here and it’s one of our favorites in the area.
