    We were in a booth which was very cosy and quiet. I got the daily grilled fresh fish with rice pilaf and sautéed spinach - delicious.

    I had a beautiful lobster asparagus omelette. My friend had an eggs Benedict with a hard boiled egg. How do you poach a hard boiled egg? Second time this happened. Service was good.

    The waitress was nice but could not answer our questions about brunch so went to ask someone and it was at least 30 minutes, then brought coffees but not cream and it took 10 minutes. Meals took even longer. Food was great as usual but service was not anywhere as good as usual.

    Service was great - modifications to the order were not correct. Waitstaff offered to take the plate back to the kitchen for corrections, but I personally never send food back to the kitchen.

    It is always nice to dine at Cafe Blue. It is consistently good and their brunch menu did not disappoint! They served a nice complimentary treat to begin our dining experience. We brought two out of town friends who had not been there previously and they enjoyed the entire experience! Great Mimosas. Thank you to the very gracious Manager who stopped by to check on us. We had a wonderful wait person and a great time all around.

    Booked a week early for valentines to end up being told the wait will 40 minutes with reservations. This to me is unacceptable. I personally feel like this restaurant purposely overbooked. I feel bad for my waiter, he was polite and did well. I don’t know if this is an open table problem or restaurant problem but in the future if your know you’re overbooked when people are reserving a week out for your due diligence to call your customer and present them with choices instead of letting them meet this problem at the door. You guys ruined my wife’s and I entire night. Guys save yourself a night of arguements.

    I didn’t want to give this place a 1 star, because our waiter and food were good-hence the 2 stars. Totally get it was Valentines Day, but there shouldn’t have been an option for reservations. The one thing I HATE is waiting knowing I placed a reservation and then having to wait an hour just to be seated. You are lucky I was patient because I could have ended up a Kevin. Other than that, the food was delicious and drinks were too.

    Reservation times seem to be merely a suggestion at this restaurant. Your mileage may very, but a 40 minute wait is excessive. "It was a surprise, a Friday night, Valentines Day, blah, blah, blah." They overbooked, knowing that once you are in the door, where else are you going to go. Great way to extend that 7pm dinner rush through closing.
