The Purple Door is a hidden gem with a unique atmosphere, complete with artistic touches like Picasso prints on the walls. The menu boasts a range of delicious dishes, including grilled beef medallions, fettuccine Alfredo, grilled prawns with cheddar jalapeño polenta, and mouth-watering fish tacos. The service is friendly and attentive, and the prices are fair. The cuisine appeals to refined palates while also offering some more traditional options. Guests often praise the flavorful dishes, such as the shrimp with cheddar polenta, which features polenta flavored with jalapeño and onion and perfectly grilled shrimp. The food looks amazing and tastes incredible, with dishes like calamari, Pasta Primavera with Ahi Tuna, and Fettuccine Alfredo receiving high marks for their well-balanced flavors and perfect cooking. The atmosphere resembles that of an upscale restaurant, with delicate piano music in the background, and the service ensures guests feel well looked after without feeling rushed. Be sure to try the tomato basil soup and save room for a generous slice of carrot cake.
