It was a busy night, and I think it’s always a good sign when chef comes out to say hello and drop off your dinner. The pappardelle was robust, with the perfect sauce to pasta ratio. Paired with some old world wine and you couldn’t ask for a better dinner. Cheers Chef Luciano, can’t wait to try the next dish.

Absolutely the best chicken parm Ive ever eaten. Tender and flavorful with a great marinara. Ordered it with very light cheese. Finished off dinner with a wonderful Tiramisu (not too sweet) Perfection.

Fantastic place to eat. Great service, cozy ambiance. Will definitely come again.Parking wasn't the greatest though so budget arrival time for your reservation accordingly.Parking: At least it's free parking after 1800. Still hard to find a parking spot though.

Food, service, and ambiance was amazing. The Chef/owner Luciano personally came out to greet us and thanked us for coming. Hospitality was off the charts, and food was bomb bomb. Fresh local ingredients and live music is a nice touch.

Everything about this restaurant is fabulous! Please go if you have not been. we were on the bar side which was very lively and had beautiful music. The restaurant side looked lovely as well. However, we did not dine on that side. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, and the chef came out to speak to us as well. Definitely recommend and we will be back to try the beef Wellington!

It was a wonderful evening with friends, incredible food, and incredible service. They made us feel at home. I appreciated the Chef coming out and saying hi. Jake made excellent suggestions and was very attentive. I will be back!

The food here is reliably excellent across the board. Standouts for us were the flatbread and eggplant parm. But it's hard to go wrong. They have some nice Italian wines on their list as well. My only criticism is that the noise level is very high when it's busy in the dining room. But it's certainly lively!

Food was fabulous. The chef came to our table & asked about our meal which was very kind. I think our server was the only 1 in our area & they got distracted or busy with other tables so we had to ask for things a few times. No harm no foul. They were very nice. Would eat there again.

Excellent dining experience at the Red Door. All our meals were superb and delicious. Our server was excellent and offered great advice. Luciano visited us and was really nice to chat with. Another fine meal at The Red Door!

This is a hidden gem and would say it's my favorite restaurant in San Diego. The food is beyond spectacular! If they have the squash blossoms on special- they are a must! Meatballs are out of this world and pasta is always al dente. Nice touch When the comes out to your table. Reasonably priced!

First of all the service is very good. Food is also delicious and you can tell ingredients are fresh and quality because even though we ordered several cheesy plates, we didn't feel uncomfortably full nor bothered, just greatly satisfied to have had a great dinner. Desserts are incredible and I'd totally trust the waiter reccomendation!
