Editorial Review for Three Doors Down Cafe – by Rachel Bellacera

In Short
Local epicures come here for a relaxed, innovative dining experience. The cafe's quirky decor includes hung doors on the walls, stained-glass windows, soft lighting and opulent furniture. Those waiting for a table lounge in the bustling bar with a mint julep or fruity sidecar. The oft-changing menu offers seasonal specials alongside house favorites. The renowned vodka penne includes spicy Italian sausage and plum tomato cream sauce. The tender roasted chicken is served atop velvety mashed potatoes drizzled with truffle oil.

I don't usually review restaurants but after having dinner at 3 Doors Down I felt compelled. I come from a family of chefs and grew up in NYC. I have my standards for what's good.... The service was excellent (Mara), the menu had something for everyone and the food was delicious (I had the Rigatoni in Vodka Cream Sauce with Italian sausage..... A bit spicy but very good). Great selection of wines! The atmosphere was romantic. We went for a birthday celebration and everyone raved. The place was packed! I highly recommend this restaurant.

Pros: Food

Cons: Busy, if you consider that a con
