As you enter through the rustic wooden doors, a secret hideaway unfolds, leaving the urban world far behind. Resplendent with bougainvilleas, ferns, and other exotic lush foliage, the patio holds a tiled fountain and Koi pond. Wrought-iron chandeliers and candelabras impart soft light at night, while during the day the sunlight gently shines through the leaves of the open skylight.

The Patio also holds the wine bar, with its eighty-five varieties of wines by the glass from around the world.
The Garden Patio, Winter Garden, Piano Room and Blue Room offer four distinct and romantic experiences.

Now, The Little Door is available to assist you in all your catering needs. You can import the flavors and intimate feelings of The Little Door to your home or venue of any scale and size.
