    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.

    The food and service were exceptional!! The menu was small and well executed. The staff knew the wines that would pair well with the meal. It had a very comfortable elevated neighborhood feel.

    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.

    If you haven’t been to the Blue Door for breakfast, lunch or dinner you’re missing one of the best food experiences in Ohio. That is not an exaggeration. Enjoy!

    We love going to the Blue Door, tonight was just ok. The fish & chips were incredibly greasy and the gnocchi were an odd texture … almost tough. Everything else was great, but still a slight disappointment.
