Absolutely fantastic place to eat. The inside is modern. The staff is incredibly friendly. Everything we ate here was delicious. The one star of the meal was the arancini. This was the best arancini my wife or I have had anywhere.

The one other thing we really appreciated was the cook on the pizza. Many places that cook neopolitan pizza leave the center a soft soupy mess. They intentionally cook the pizza slightly longer so the pizza dough firms up a little and I personally really appreciated this. Limoncello mule and Aperol spritz were the winners for us drink wise.

This was a random stop for us on our first night in Door County and it ended up being our new favorite place in Door County and the highlight of our trip. Will definitely be back.

We've eaten at Della Porta many times. The service is prpfessional and knowledgeable, but always friendly and welcoming. It's a warm ambiance that never disappoints. The food is always fresh, delicious, and modern. Great wine list too. And if you have dietary restrictions, it's honestly the best gluten free and vegan food my husband has had anywhere - even among great Chicago Italian restaurants. We've loved the fried calamari (amazingly gf), pizza (my fave is the pesto burata arugula w prosciutto; my husband had the Margherita (gf) and asked to add prosciutto), many of the pastas, and fresh fish. A bonus is the new patio, La Piazza, in their outdoor courtyard where we spent one summer afternoon enjoying wine and pizza. I can't recommend Della Porta and their brunch menu, Blue Bear (really, cacio e pepe eggs! And unbelievable gf beingets) enough!!

1000% Recommend especially GF, or V. I was up in Door County in the fall. It was hard to find a good place to eat with my dietary restrictions. My boyfriend and I decided to give this place a try. LOTS of GF options, staff very considerate of the dietary restrictions. I never felt so comfortable eating in a place. The food also was phenomenal!! Please give them a try! You will not regret it! I am considering coming back a second time. They are also open year-round!

Dietary restrictions: LOTS of GF and also Vegan options. Very considerate of the dietary restrictions. For the GF options they have, the taste of the food is phenomenal. I had the best GF Pizza ever, soft crust. It did not even taste GF in the slightest, but it was!! Pleae give this place a try!

We stopped by the outdoor wine bar and it was such a gem! Excellent wine menu, excellent service (Chris did a great job explaining the wine choices and making sure we had everything we needed). Highly recommend.

True old country Italian food crafted and redefined by a very talented chef and staff. The ambience here sets the mood, the fine wine and craft cocktails gets the appetite ready for an outstanding selection of fine Italian food. The staff makes it comfortable to relax and enjoy the time at a very fine establishment. Top notch restaurant dining. Well done Della Porta DC..well done indeed ??

The drinks were incredible. Usually drinks are too sweet for me, but they were amazing. The service was on point and we ordered a lot of food for 4 people. All of the food was delicious too.

I never draft reviews unless the experience warrants, and this deserves EVERY accolade it has received. I’m a total foodie and travel a lot and I can confidently say this is the best gluten free pizza I have ever had!!! If you are GF and looking for a great spot to eat with an amazing staff- this is the place. They also have a delicious breakfast/brunch menu through their other restaurant Blue Bear. I ordered two entrees in one sitting… twice. Just saying- put this on your list!!!! You won’t regret it.

This was a great experience. The service was friendly, efficient, and welcoming. The food was exceptional. We had the Bolognese and Paccheri. The sauces were flavorful and the pasta was cooked perfectly. The Italian Old Fashioned was done well. Tiramisu was perfect. I highly recommend.

The finest Italian food we have ever eaten in Door County. We will be returning with our cycling team next season. We plan on making Della Porta a regular dinner evening out, when ever we visit the "DOOR". Thank you to Jesse for excellet service as well as knowledge of everything that makes their food so worthwhile.

By far the best Italian food/wood fired pizza in Door County. Fabulous on all levels. Coming from San Diego I would consider myself a bit of a high standard foodie ? especially when it comes to fresh and flavorful Italian - this family run restaurant knocked it out of the park! Personable service and full spectrum selection! Could not recommend more!
