Wow. Okay the pictures on instagram do not do this place justice. I rarely say that places look…read morebetter than their official page and marketing...but yeah. This place does. Like people said it was romantic and I was like sure, I guess in the pictures it kind of does. In person though??? Wow. Absolutely wow. I was in awe. I wish I could sit there every day. The lights and ambiance are truly insane. I have never experienced anything like it. Let me backtrack too and say that I paid $14 for valet which tbh is not too bad considering I didn't have to worry about my car or anything so it was worth it. Okay the food. We got Parker rolls and the Mezze plate for the table. Wow, the Parker rolls were as you would expect. Buttery goodness. French butter as you know...top tier. Okay the Mezze plate? Every single sauce was so good. The little cous cous thing in the Mezze plate was so cute and yummy. Then the main dishes. Seven vegetable couscous was great. As a Moroccan, I can say it was a great vegetarian version of the dish. Has the staple veggies you look for in a cous cous. My friend got the vegan cauliflower steak and that was so beautiful and tasted delicious. It was a great dish for my vegan friend. Our waiter was so nice and really personable as well. From start to finish, he was there for us when we needed him and we really enjoyed our dining experience because of him. I forgot his name but he's a star. I have already recommended this place to others because it really was so incredible. I am so happy I got to come here.

We celebrated a romantic dinner at Little Door for my fiancé's birthday and I would say the…read moreexperience was OK. She chose this place for the Instagram worthy atmosphere you see online, but I would say it falls a little short of how picturesque it is. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice garden setup up, but we were expecting a more romantic and whimsical layout. We also noticed that the dress code is very loosely enforced as there were numerous people there with T shirts on. We got there for our reservation about 15 minutes early and was seated quite fast. The hostesses at the front were quite friendly and the wait staff were attentive and mostly nice. One of our servers seemed a little curt at one point, but it wasn't too bad. Once you are seated they ask about your drink order, and offered wines, sparkling water, and literally said "tap water". Pretty surprised that they said tap water, but we went with a glass of wine and sparkling water. The menu is short and it's easy to make your decision. We went with the 24oz Prime Ribeye Steak, Pappardelle pasta, Kingfish Crudo, and the Portuguese Piri Piri Shrimp. The ribeye was served with scalloped potatoes and green beans that were delicious. The ribeye was a perfect medium rare, tender, and served in a very balanced sauce. The Piri Piri Shrimp was also great. Large pieces in a slightly spicy cream sauce; I would describe it as almost a Cajun flavor. These were my favorites of the dishes we ordered on this night. The Kingfish Crudo was a nice choice. I believe it was yellowtail served with small pieces of cherry tomatoes and peach chunks. The sauce was nice and refreshing with a little sweetness. The Pappardelle Pasta was ok, and probably my least favorite dish of the night. It wasn't bad, but wasn't on par with the rest of our meal. The thick pasta noodles were al dente, and the sauce was nice and creamy with pieces of green beans. It got better once we mixed the poached egg into the sauce, but still didn't get it to the point where we would order it again. Since it was my fiancé's birthday, she wanted to get one of their desserts served as a small birthday. She saw pictures of their passion fruit coconut cheesecake on Instagram and wanted that, but they changed it where the passion fruit was at the bottom of the cake. I thought it was decent, but not a great dessert. I thought the staff would at least sing happy birthday like other restaurants, but that didn't happen here. Overall, The Little Door is a small romantic stop to have a date night. I don't know if I would consider it a place to celebrate a special occasion though. I think we would come back, but not for anything big. Also, I would recommend using the valet, it's right in front and they only charge $14 pre tip.

You can really tell that the food and ingredients are super high quality! As for what we ordered: - Escargots (5/5), no notes - super flavorful and tasty standard escargots done right! - French onion soup (5/5): the cheese was nicely melted and the soup was rich. Classic choice, can't go wrong! - Duck confit (5/5): never had this before but oh man it was so good! The duck skin was light and crispy, not oily at all and the duck was juicy. The flavors shined throughout and the purées complimented the duck really nicely. Super balanced dish - Beef Bourguignon (4/5): I wanted to love this more but I think the wine sauce was too overpowering. The beef was fork tender and cooked really nicely but I just thought the sauce was too strong. Everything else was nice! - pistachio crème brulee (5/5): I was so surprised but this was so good!! Never had these flavors before but it was the perfect blend of light and airiness with a hint of pistachio! Service was standard, they give table bread which was good and fresh! Parking is tough since it's in DTLA but it was easy on a Sunday night!

You'll need to venture a little deeper into the plaza to find it, but it's well worth the effort. They were offering a pre-fix menu during our visit, which was a great way to sample a variety of dishes. The standout items for us were the ENDIVE SALAD, BURGUNDY SNAILS, 48-HOUR DUCK LEG CONFIT, and the MOULES MARINIERES. Service was a bit slow, but the food was good. ENJOY! PS: Super weird, you have to leave the restaurant and go to a security guard in the middle of the plaza to let you in to use the restroom. Parking can be really difficult. There's no lot, but I was able to get a meter spot.

The line was very short and we were able to get a seat by the window for optimal people watching. The pastries we chose were good and beautiful, but not the most amazing we have ever tasted. I ordered the Mediterranean Eggs which feels like a light and healthy option. My daughter had the BLT Benedict that was SO good. We gave that a 10/10 rating. Their coffee was good too. We ordered an iced americano and hot latte. The restaurant is beautiful with a lot of seating, so it definitely should be on your list of places to try if you are in the Hollywood / Mid-Wilshire area. They usually have valet parking but if you want to save the money during the day, you can find some street parking on the side streets.

My husband got the tuna sandwich with egg, different from the usual tuna salad, but in a good way. I had the salmon tartine and really enjoyed it too. The one downside: when the bill came, there was a $2.00 (4%) "Healthy LA" charge that no one mentioned upfront. Our server did offer to remove it right away when I asked, but it's annoying that it wasn't disclosed sooner. Definitely double-check your bill before paying.

The pot pie is easily the can't‑miss dish being the most memorable dish during both visits. On the second visit, we tried: - Black Sesame Parker House Rolls - Broccolini - Grilled Oyster Mushrooms - Croque Madame with ham katsu (gruyère, mornay sauce, shokupan, cornichons) - Pork Chop - Duck Frites - Abalone & Bay Scallop Pot Pie (king trumpet mushrooms, "snail butter"). You can't really go wrong with anything on the menu though I will say the duck dish I had enjoyed more on my first visit; this time around it leaned noticeably salty, which took away from the dish I enjoyed before. Service is friendly and the space has a bit of an understated, comfortable feel, but intentional. It's the kind of place where you settle in, enjoy the food, and appreciate the details. I love the thoughtfulness of the dishes. Though a few inconsistencies between visits, still a spot I'd return to, especially for that pot pie.

Let's talk about the food: -Wine and cheese flight- 3 Small Pours Paired with 3 Bites of Cheese (Bright Whites). This was absolutely lovely. The cheese and wine pairings were perfection. This was served with crackers and a baguette. My favorite cheese was the brie, it was super creamy. -Poulpe Aux Pistou- Octopus with white beans, and pesto. I do not recommend this item. The beans were a little undercooked and the octopus was chewy. I should've returned it. -Nicoise Salad- My friend had this salad and said this was one of the best ones she's ever had. The assortment of ingredients was perfect. Service was friendly but our server was running around with a large section. Our wines did not come out until after the food was delivered, and the appetizers were not coursed. I don't blame her for the lack of service as she was doing her best. The buss boys were really nice and helpful and we were able to ask for help as needed.

Food is always an area that I leave up to everyone's own taste. To me I felt some of the dishes needed more salt but I always enjoy my food from how the chef prepped it so I can try new dishes.
