Blue Bay Diner

It has been a minute since I've been to an old-school New York dinner, and the Blue Bay Dinner didn't disappoint. The food was good. The Chicken and Waffles were just delicious. The Waffles were perfectly cooked but the star of the show was the Buttermilk Chicken. The Chicken was flavorful and juicy. I never had Red Cabbage Coleslaw before but I really enjoyed it. It was sweet without being overpowering. The Cappuccino was heavenly.

Nice local diner. The prices were higher than average but the servings were huge. Service was very nice, too. The Niçoise salad didn’t come with any protein unless you asked (and paid extra) which was unusual as that dish would almost always have fish. For the price, that dish was disappointing. However, we enjoyed our sandwiches, sweet potato fries and soups. It was nice to see healthy options including the cottage cheese and fruit salad. They also have a nice range of classic American and Greek desserts.

Blue Bay checks all boxes when it comes to a diner. Went with a group of 4 on a Saturday, at 9:45. Waited for 5 mins and was seated. Big menu, fast and friendly service. $15 minimum per person, also they don’t rush you out so you have time to chat and digest. Complimentary coffee refills were nice,. Would come back.

The food is flavorful and the portions are generous. The dishes we ordered tasted like home made! The owner was there and was super hospitable. The waitress was nice and patient when we took time to order. Very accommodating to large groups as well. All deserts are made in house. We tried the Black Forest cake which was rich and decadent.

First off, they should call it Blue Bay Big Food Dinner. Servings were huge. Our waiter was fantastic, we never waited for refills,or had to ask for extra anything(napkins, sugar etc) The ribeye portion was very generous as was the Club, Steak Quesadilla and French Toast. We could not have enjoyed our experience anymore than we did, 100 percent recommend Blue Bay Dinner.
