We adore this spot. Kendall is the best waitress out there. The food is always amazing and she gives great suggestions for both food and drinks. Their salmon salad, wings, and California burgers are unforgettable and the French onion soup is delicious. All of the staff are great. Make a reservation just to be sure to get a spot on busy nights. Highly highly recommend and Kendall deserves at least 22% tip!

No amazing views or anything here, but the food is fantastic! I had the blackened salmon risotto and licked the bowl clean! Absolutely delicious! If you get here early, you can get in on the happy hour specials too. I just missed out on the muscles or I would have tried those as well. I’m looking forward to coming back again to add to the review.

This is a small restaurant with bar which seems very popular with locals. It’s located in a strum mall so doesn’t look like much from the outside but it’s great. Host knew most patrons by name. Not a super wide selection, but everything is very good. There are salads and sandwiches but also entrees such as risotto and fish platters. I recommend reservations as it is small and very popular. I think it is currently not open weekends.

Wonderfully warm atmosphere with owners actively involved in creating a great place for a special occasion or for warm bowl of soup on a stormy night. Great service. And the food is even better. Creative dishes with special attention to pairing, seasoning, and presentation. I cannot recommend Cafe Blue any more enthusiastically. Do yourself a favor and give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.

I was hyper impressed with this restaurant! Yeah, it’s in a strip mall, and yeah, I was not expecting anything spectacular. We showed up for happy hour, 8 to Burgers Fries & Wings for less than $40 including the tip. And what’s amazing, is that everything was awesome. The drinks were wonderful, and the service was good. It may not look like much from the outside, the trust me, this place is the real deal. Get in for happy hour if you can! And if you miss it, go anyways.

Been here twice. This is one of the nicer results in the gun barrel area (not that many options though). On both occasions we were attended to by a very polite server with an New York (I think) accent. I’m not a picky eater but the customer service was spot on.

My new go to! They might take an extra minute to make the food, but it’s a small place, be patient. Good things take time.

Excellent. Best French Onion soup around. And the soups of the day are almost always the way to go! Chicken Saltimbocca is phenomenal. Variety of hand-crafted cocktails. Happy hour pricing is incredible for food and drinks. Top-quality ingredients, fantastic service and simply an all-around wonderful experience every time. Highly recommend.

First time in, I was living temporarily off of Jay rd. I wish I had known about this place sooner! Very high quality food. I would say close to fine dining. I expected a greasy spoon diner, and was blown away. I came by myself and it was the perfect solo date. I had the gnocchi short rib stroganoff and it was wonderful, especially for a cold night. Staff is friendly and personalized. They stopped by and made it a point to have a conversation with me. I am
