The place is beautiful. Food was delicious and service outstanding. Will be coming back for sure.
Excellent food and good service. The disappointment was that we were seated at the very back of the restaurant where it was so dark that we had to use our phone flashlights to see the food that we were served. The rest of the restaurant has such a lovely outdoor area but we were told that there was no room to sit there.
Great food and great service! I don’t type essays but I eat good and this place is legit
We had an isolated table outside which was surrounded so well that it felt like our own private dining room. Service was excellent. The food is always superb. It was wonderful to be back again after not having eaten there in so long.
Service was great!! All the waiters were extremely well trained and very courteous. Food /drink and music were all perfect and the ambiance definitely teleported you out of LA. Will come back for the dessert we didnt have room for!
This has to be one of LA's most beautiful restaurants. They really did a wonderful job of outfitting the place to fit today's covid requirements and unlike anywhere else we've been...it actually made it more charming and cozy. The menu was fantastic and the food we ordered was absolutely amazing as were the cocktails. Very warm and friendly staff as well. Can't wait to go back again!!
I’ve been coming here for 10 years and have always had amazing dinners with excellent service. The service this time was an absolute disaster. The waitress was inattentive and in the fog the entire evening. She also brought out a dish that was not prepared as I had asked for which resulted in the chef having to cook up another serving. By the time the correct main course arrived, it was nearly two hours from the time we stepped into the restaurant. The waitress was completely nonchalant about everything which surprised me knowing the excellent reputation The Little Door has earned over the years. The owner did come to our table and genuinely apologized for the error and took a round of drinks off the bill (party of two). The food was good but not quite on par when T. Nicholas was their chef (he left last year). I’d probably try The Little Door again since it’s such a beautiful spot coupled with their history of excellence.
Great food! Romantic setting with just enough privacy. Will definitely come back.
The perfect spot for a romantic date night. Highly recommend the brussel sprouts, but all their side dishes were phenomenal. The ambiance is perfect.
Very elegant place for a romantic dinner. Service was great
Halibut was a bit dry but the atmosphere was amazing.
I have been there numerous times and they are consistently excellent.
Really terrible service that ruined our meal. Server did not interact with us whatsoever and was extremely rude. We mentioned this to the hostess who was unapologetic as well.
It was a wonderful evening!
Such an incredible meal and experience. A luxury but a great place to have a truly special evening.
The hostess and our waiter were as outstanding as our dinners! The pomegranate margaritas and framboise chocolate dessert weren’t hard to ingest either ☺️😊‼️
There solution to Covid with the window dividers is brilliant. I hope they keep them as they provide a more private yet open experience.
The ambience is exceptional and the food and service are amazing.
Great food and amazing ambience, we had an amazing French waitress who was super knowledgeable about wines and food pairings
The restaurant is amazing for ambiance and the food was spectacular :)
I’ve been coming here ever since it opened in 1996 and it’s still awesome!
We have been going here a few times a year forever. Food is always wonderful; wait staff is always knowledgeable and helpful; and we always have a wonderful time and genuine value. So glad to be able to go back after the shutdown.
I love that place! Atmosphere is great 👍🏼
Flawless. On every level.
Phenomenal service
It's amazing to me how crazy it is on 3rd Street when you arrive. Once the valet takes your car, you must enter through a little door (not that little, but stay with me). Once you're in, it's a totally calming and different world on the inside. What a beautiful restaurant and I've must have passed it a million times and never saw it. I'm so glad we celebrated my birthday there and everything on the menu comes out on time and hot. It's so delicious and if you've never been here before, now is the time. They were great!
This is my third time going to little door for dine LA. The menu was different this year and definitely did not disappoint. It not only met but exceeded my expectations. I took a few friends who have never been and they loved it. Food, ambience, and price were great.
Delicious Food and drinks. Great staff and beautiful restaurant.
Delicious and amazing as always! We enjoyed the Dine LA specials. Thank you for making my birthday fun and memorable.
This might be my new favorite place in LA! A beautiful dining area that will make you feel like you've stepped through a portal into some far off exotic place. Fantastic food! I especially loved the grilled octopus and Couscous Royale.
Food and service were impeccable. Definitely coming back
The food is great. The food presentation is beautiful. The place is nice and the service is superb.
Ambiance and vibe are 5 stars. Food is completely average, doesn’t taste like it was made for you fresh and is overpriced. Our waitress was not on her game.
It was amazing! Very pretty
I loved the doors as COVID dividers, great food and good service
Love this place so much. It’s my third time back here and it never disappoints.
Spent a delayed Valentine’s dinner at Little Door and they were fantastic as usual. It was great to feel somewhat normal again due to Covid, and they were very conscious of keeping the restaurant safe outfitting the restaurant with style. And the food lived up to Little Door standards!
This place is amazing as always. The food presentation is spectacular and it tastes amazing.
Always my fav placed
I went with a couple friends to celebrate my birthday and it was a great experience. It’s a beautiful scene with lots of lights and good music playing in the background. We had a great waiter and the staff was super helpful. We shared a few appetizers and few main courses and everything was good. We also got a bottle of wine recommended from our waiter and we liked it. They made it special and added a candle to a desert that I picked out. I would defiantly go back and recommend the restaurant to others.
