About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Romantic
Two simple wooden doors open up to quite a buzz in an otherwise romantic courtyard, where a colorful crowd hangs at the bar and lingers at coveted patio tables. Inside, seats spread throughout the candlelit house-turned-restaurant with intimate furniture. Organic seasonal ingredients, creatively prepared and impeccably presented, characterize our unique menu. If you do not see a reservation time for the time you would like please also check on Tock at exploretock.com/thelittledoor
For reservations on Holidays, please call the restaurant.

    It was a culinary experience. Food was the delicious and the ambiance was magical. The place is so pretty. However, the place is small and so it gets crowded and that makes the noise level so loud along with music. But once you get acclimated, it’s doesn’t bother at all. I really loved it.

    Amazing hostess, amazing server, amazing food, and impeccable ambiance. I can't get over how The Little Door scored on all levels. Even the music was enjoyable and reflected the fun vibe and chilled atmosphere. The drinks were premium and tasty. You can choose from their cocktail specialty menu or stick with your personal favorite. The Shrimp Peri-Peri was perfectly seasoned with an added little kick. I ordered the Rissotto minus the mushrooms and added shrimp for my entree. My husband ordered the steak and said it was one of the best he'd ever had. Reservations may be a challenge but well worth. I need to stress the great hospitality of the hostess as they accommodated my party with such kindness. Already looking forward to my next visit.

    The Little Door never disappoints—it remains one of our absolute favorite restaurants in the country. The ambiance, the service, and the food always come together to create a memorable experience. We had the pleasure of celebrating my wife’s birthday there, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. From start to finish, the evening was filled with thoughtful touches and exceptional flavors. A true gem.
