My party of two were seated after a few pleasant minutes wait, the owner/ host (combo waiter/ chef/ maitre de) was DELIGHTFUL, our food was amazingly presented and incredibly delicious, the decór was a riot. A perfect San Francisco experience.

The Red Door has graced San Francisco with its unique presence for a decade, but this gem has closed its doors after selling to a new owner, who will operate as a different restaurant going forward. There never was and never will be another restaurant like Red Door. We may not notice just yet how this little cafe has changed the dining-out experience, but I bet its influence has, and will spread. The amazing food was almost overshadowed by the experience of the visit itself. How Ahmed, the owner, managed to execute those flavorful dishes and provide such a personal, vibrant experience simultaneously, is a gift and mystery. From the time spent waiting in line, and to the very end, it was always a one-of-a-kind-experience. Only the effortlessly hilarious, quick-witted Ahmed could pull this off, and as mostly a one-man-show! He made magic happen here for myself and others, and memories that will not soon be forgotten. I feel a little changed after having known The Red Door Cafe, and will miss it like crazy. update: 1/6/17 Looks like it's official (sad face). The owner has put a sweet good-bye message on the window for Red Door customers, his landlords and the new owners.
