The Corner Door in Culver City

May 26, 2015 By AJ 1 Comment

Listen up, please. This is important to me.

Everything about The Corner Door in Culver City is delicious and wonderful. From the neighborhood to the staff to the food on down.

But don’t go there. 

The cocktails my friend and I enjoyed were sweet… but not  too sweet. We had a a “Topless Mermaid” which is composed of vodka, pineapple, banana rose, blue curacao and lime, as well as a “House French 75” which has gin, lillet rose, lemon, sugar, peach bitters and sparkling wine. They were served quite chilled and were very refreshing.

But you need not concern yourself with these divine libations.

To start, we had the French Fries “Carbonade.” It is HANDS DOWN the best french fry dish I’ve ever had. Crispy spuds topped with beer-braised beef, farmhouse cheese and a roasted garlic aioli made of garlic, Dijon, egg yolks, malt vinegar, and garlic oil.

It’s an amazing dish but you don’t want it. Even if you had it, you’d eat it quickly and be so full, you’d not be able to enjoy anything else! That would be so sad.

Also, you definitely don’t want the Brussels Sprouts. Just skip right past those.

With apologies to my friend, I happily ate most of them. It was a shameful thing to do so I ask you not to stand in the same position. I must warn you against ordering the tasty dish.

Moving on from there, we had absurdly good entrees. The lobster and shrimp bolognese with squid ink capellini as well as a braised short rib special — the meat just fell onto my fork and melted in my mouth with every bite. The sauce on the pasta was good enough to drink.

Terrible. Stuffing my belly this way. A real crime. Don’t even think about doing it to yourself.

And whatever you do, do not ask to sit in Patrick’s section. You’ll end up falling in love with him and who needs a broken heart? Plus, he’ll talk you into ordering dessert, even when you’re full, and you’ll end up with something atrocious like sticky toffee pudding.

Just look at it. Taunting me from deep in it’s lair.

I ate every single last bite just to spite it. They won’t beat me at The Corner Door.

You see, the food is wonderful, the environment warm and inviting and the people are friendly.

But it’s a fairly small place. And I want to go back there so really, do me a favor and don’t go there. If you all go, then it will be harder for me to get a seat. You’ll only end up eating all their delicious eats too quickly, getting a nice buzz off their hand crafted cocktails or great wine list. You’ll end up spending too much on their small plates and weep over your empty wallet. I’m doing you a favor, in truth. Let me go. Let me take this one for the team.

I will keep going to The Corner Door so you don’t have to. 😉
