Bleu Restaurant

An absolutely delightful French restaurant we tried on a whim. The food was spectacular, the service impeccable, the wine and other drinks delicious, and a really nice atmosphere. The restaurant is upscale without being pretentious, so you can come in a suit or you can come in jeans.

The restaurant was very nice and the food was excellent. We got French onion soup and Caesar salad salad with chicken. And the chicken was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The waitress, Brook, was the turn off here. She had a very poor attitude and never came to check on anything. Every time we wanted something we had to flag her down and she often ignored us. When it came time to pay the bill we paid with a $100 bill. The check total came to $48. We waited 15-20 minutes for our change and she just kept walking past us. We finally flagged her over and told her we were still waiting for change and she said the bar was having a difficult time breaking $100 bill. She could have kept us informed of that and we would’ve paid by credit card. She was just unpleasant the entire time.

Bleu Restaurant has a lovely atmosphere — stylish, comfortable, and the kind of space that makes you excited for a nice meal out. Unfortunately the service was the biggest letdown of the visit; inattentive and slow in a way that noticeably affected the overall experience. The food was decent but didn't quite reach the potential the setting promises. With better service and a stronger menu, Bleu could be a really impressive restaurant.

Had a wonderful dinner here with my wife - our first evening out with just the two of us since having our first child. We had a few precious hours while my in-laws babysat, and the staff at Bleu really made the most of it. The excellent wine list, local oysters, and unbelievable duck breast & salmon made our special night that much more memorable. We're very grateful and will return soon, merci mille fois!

Lately when I'm traveling I've been asking Google for food within 5 miles and I have not been disappointed. I wanted brunch with a full bar. Not only was Bleu close by but they just so happen to have a Jazz Brunch! My cocktail was a magnificent caramel coffee. The hot coffee warmed my soul on such a chilly afternoon. We shared a crock of the French Onion Soup to start and both ordered the Benedict. The brunch menu may look small, but I still had a hard time choosing from the delicious options. The music and atmosphere was perfect for a relaxing Sunday afternoon.
