    We chose the blue door to celebrate our fourth anniversary and it couldn’t have been better. The intimate dining area is a welcome change,service was professional and unintrusive. The food was the star of the show! The blue door deserves it its reputation.

    An excellent place for a tasteful delicious meal! The veal was outstanding with perfect breading, served with an artistic salad. We ordered the sourdough bread appetizer, which was not what we expected, as we thought it would have been more of charcuterie board with the plain bread and oil dip, with cheese and vegetables. The 2 half pieces of bread was seeped in oil / butter and toasted and then sitting in oil with the cheese and vegetables in the bowl. The banana foster bread pudding was a delightful end. Would recommend overall. The staff was fabulous and friendly.

    You approach and you think you are going into a joint, but once you walk in, you you know you are in a special place. I’m reluctant to write a review for the selfish reason of introducing people to the Blue Door Cafe. Let me state that the entire experience from the cocktails to the home made bread with honey butter to the four meals we ordered (there were only two of us), to the espresso and chocolate soufflé were, well, if I were Elisa Doolittle, I would be singing “I could have danced all night’’. That is the feeling you ant the Blue Door Cafe. Thank you to the owners, Micheal and Jen, and to Mike who tended to our wine for a lovely evening.

    The atmosphere was really nice, a bit chilly in the corner we were sitting in. Music was also a bit louder than I would have liked. We didn’t get any appetizers but our main courses were amazing!!! We both got Crème Brûlée for dessert. It was very good but a bit over priced $15. Overall we really liked our first visit and will definitely be going back!

    The dinner food was good, but extremely overpriced. For example, we ordered a Brie appetizer and got two pieces of bread and three small rounds of (what appeared to be butter) for $15. We enjoyed the food and service, but wouldn’t go back because of the prices.
