" I’ve been here a couple of times now for dinner and it has been consistently excellent! The pasta dishes are freshly made and seasoned perfectly, reflecting authentic Italian flavors without feeling pretentious. While it can get busy, the staff is always friendly and works hard to ensure a pleasant dining experience. What I love most? The special dessert of the day is always a wonderful surprise! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here based on recommendations from friends and it did not disappoint! The fried calamari was perfectly crispy, and my entrée—the seafood linguine—was bursting with flavors. The hostess was accommodating, and the ambiance of the restaurant is very relaxing. Looking forward to returning for happy hour! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an excellent dinner at 3 Doors Down last weekend! The lamb ossobuco was incredibly tender and full of flavor, something I found myself dreaming about the next day. The staff truly takes pride in their service, and the friendly atmosphere made our night even better. We also tried the bean dip with the bread, which was a delightful starter. Highly recommend it for anyone seeking authentic Italian fare! " (*Curated Review*)

" We held a small family gathering at 3 Doors Down last month and were blown away by the service! They catered to our vegetarian diet seamlessly and made excellent suggestions from the menu. Their gnocchi is light and fluffy, rich in flavor, and made completely from scratch. The atmosphere was perfect for our occasion and left a lasting impression! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been coming to 3 Doors Down for years, and it remains one of my top dining spots! The pasta with vodka sauce is a must-try, rich in flavor and cooked al dente every single time. The owner Jeff is always around, greeting guests and ensuring things run smoothly. The ambiance is relaxed but elegant – a perfect spot for any occasion. I can't recommend it enough; you really feel like family here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly underwhelmed. When I visited, the bolognese was a bore and didn’t have the depth I anticipated. The tiramisu, on the other hand, was quite good. The service was decent, but our waiter seemed stretched thin. I might reconsider before coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been twice already and both times were stellar! The gnocchi is so tender it practically melts in your mouth. I found out that they make it fresh daily—which explains why it tastes incredible! This cozy cafe feels family-oriented, and the service reflects that. You’ll leave with a full belly and a smile. " (*Curated Review*)
