Per a friend’s recommendation, we drove about 40+ minutes to get to Blue. The drive was well worth it. As you can see per the pics, the food looked amazing. It all was well cooked and tasted GREAT. The staff was very friendly and really took care of us. We never had to wait on anything…..even with it being kinda crowded. One thing I REALLY liked is/was how the Chef actually walks around and talks to everyone. If you happen to try Blue, get there early. We got there when it opened at 4pm and when we left, there were a lot of folks waiting to get in. If this place was just a little bigger, it would be that much more awesome. Other than the size of the restaurant, this place ROCKS. We will definitely make that 40+ minute drive again and again.

Had my birthday dinner here on recommendations of a local friend of the family, and it was a great experience. I do recommend that you plan ahead as there was a 45 min wait, but it was worth it. The free appetizer was delightful and a nice surprise. Dinner was cooked to perfection and the seafood was very fresh. The cocktails were perfectly made. The keylime pie for dessert was amazing as well and had a side of strawberry jam as a twist. The wait staff were very attentive, and drink refills were on point. We even got the host to take a picture of our dinner and got the chef in it as well. Perfect night, I will definitely be back.

We were looking for somewhere to eat on our last evening at the beach and based on reviews, we choose Blue Seafood and Spirits. What a great decision! Everything, from the cocktails to the apps, to the salads and main dishes were absolutely wonderful. Even the children’s menu is great! Our server was also awesome! The owner/chef/dishwasher came out to ask how everything was and then stopped by again thanking us for our business. If you are looking for great food and drinks and a friendly place, Blue Seafood & Spirits is the place!

Our family of 5 recently visited and we’ll definitely be going back! We ordered the seafood combo, belle haven, and the pork chop – everything was excellent! Cocktails were great as well. Our server Jenny was super friendly and attentive. One of the best restaurants in the VA Beach region… I highly recommend stopping in if you’re in the area.

I booked a weekend in VA Beach for my wife’s birthday. She specifically wanted seafood. I did a search on seafood restaurants in VA Beach and this place easily had the top rated reviews. I selected this place for our dinner and It did not disappoint! At first you may be skeptical as you first get there as it isn’t a large place and easy to pass by. It truly is a hidden gem! We got there and was immediately put on a waiting list was

We wanted to have some really good seafood and found this place online that had great reviews. Well, I usually don’t post reviews but have to for this place. Service and food was fantastic. Everything from the seafood to the veggies, appetizers was outstanding. I had the Eastern Shore Fried Oysters tonight that actually melted in my mouth! You feel very welcomed by the staff and the chef circulates making sure he greets everyone. Definitely go here for a great dining experience. We stayed a week in Sandbridge and had to go twice to this place! We will plan to go definitely on future beach trips.

My husband and I ate there this past Saturday night. From the moment we got to the front door, the staff were polite, welcoming and so accommodating! We sat at the bar and Bridgett, the bartender, was great! The food was also amazing! EVERYTHING was sooo good! My husband has a gluten allergy and they were so accommodating and have many gluten free options. We have lived nearby for 5 years and can’t believe we are just now finding this gem of a restaurant.

The experience as a whole was unlike most. The staff was extremely attentive, well educated and overall just very friendly and easy to talk to. All of the food was delicious and full of flavor. Loved the tight knit atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Went here on a Friday evening for a graduation celebration. There were 9 people in my party. The waitress (Riley, I believe her name was?) was phenomenal! She waited on our table of 9 flawlessly. The chef/owner popped out to talked to us more than once and even popped out the door to say goodbye when we finally left. Listen: the food here is 10/10. It’s worth the hype. I loved every single thing I tasted. The biscuits????? Worth the trip alone. I will be back, for sure.
