Very nice restaurant with a pretty good choice of dishes. We ordered fresh oysters, some appetizers and side dishes, plus drinks. Though we ordered half a dozen of oysters, the platters of one dozen came, which was not so bad. The only disappointment was the plate with two super small octopus tentacles. They were tender and soft, but more on a boiled side. I haven’t seen such a small plate of octopus, especially for $18. Margaritas were good. Plus we had a nice table overlooking the water.

WOW. AMAZING. My partner and I are visiting from Ohio for Mother’s Day weekend and we decided to go to Blue to celebrate. This was our first experience and oh my gosh.. I’m so impressed!! The food, service, views, ambiance were ALL on point. I absolutely cannot wait to return! Thank you so much for making it a great mother’s day celebration!!!!

My family and I have been enjoying impromptu get-togethers at Blue for many years now, and it’s always a highlight for us. The food is consistently delicious—we’ve never been disappointed. Their menu has something for everyone to enjoy! From Comfort food to creative bites, there’s truly something to satisfy everyone’s taste. The servers ate excellent, too! We really love this restaurant. The space is both comfortable and inviting, with beautiful views of the water that make every visit feel special. The ribeye is hands down the best I’ve ever had, and the seafood is always fresh. I always like to end the night with an affogato for dessert—it’s the perfect finish to a great meal. Blue has become a tradition for us, and we’re so grateful for the consistently wonderful experience! HIGHLY RECOMMEND the red berry martini!!!🍸

This restaurant is everything. The staff was amazing. Our waitress unfortunately I forgot her name but she was a young, blonde, slim woman. She was simply the best. I went around February or March 2024. Not sure if she still works there. If she does hopefully she gets a raise. And if she is not there, I hope the best for her. I definitely want to go back.

The Blue is a great restaurant with an amazing view of the water. The food was amazing. We got the tuna club and the chicken burrata. Both were really good with no complaints. The soup of the day was very flavorful it's a shame that there wasn't a lot of soup in it. The staff were all really nice and responsive. It's really close to the Snug Harbor. It's only a couple of minutes from there. I definitely recommend this restaurant.

With no reservations on a Saturday evening, the staff were accommodating which I was grateful for. Located at the waterfront, we were seated in the second room facing the water. Beautiful view and room, one can be easily entertained with the boat traffic that passes. Our waiter greeted and served us our beverages quickly along with warm pita bread with olives and grapes in olive oil. Greg, the waiter, gave his insights about the menu along with recommendations in a warm friendly matter. Started off with oysters and ordered two entrees, the bolognese and tuna steak. The east coast oysters were great quality and refreshing. Both entries were delicious and presented beautifully. Finished the evening with fresh home made key lime pie. Would recommend to make reservations just to be sure there is seating. Will return to try other options since each dish was delicious.

We really enjoyed our lunch time at Blue. Not only food is great, service and atmosphere are wonderful. They have waterfront view. Waitress told us lunch menu is new and I’m amazed how delicious they are. We love all of them. Brunch menu is only available on Sunday. Will definitely come back to try their brunch and dinner. Parking lot small only fits few cars, but plenty of street parking nearby.

This restaurant has a beautiful waterfront view. I recommend to check the sunset time and enjoy the romantic evening. The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere. The waiters and bartenders are very polite and cordial. It was very nice experience with complimentary testing of two good wines that were offered to us. The food was delicious, very fresh, and very Italian. We will come back.

Came here for lunch. Was seated right away. Very romantic ambiance. We sat indoors with the view of overlooking the water. Staff was really friendly. Food was really delicious too. Portion sizes were humongous also. There’s an outside area where you can just sit and feel the breeze and watched the tugboats. It was a really nice experience.

Beautiful restaurant. We came for my husband’s birthday and had great time! There is an option for prefix for $40 and $50. It comes with frittata bread, appetiser and main course. This was the best prefix I have ever seen!!! They give you good stuff like lobster, fish or steak. If you get a main course, you get $16 unlimited choice of drinks. We tried sangria and it was good. I was really pleased to see so many females working there. Very beautiful and professional.

Nice ambiance, great service! Food was surprisingly disappointing given the price and reviews. Not a lot of flavor in broths for mussels or linguini clams. Lobster was not cleaned well. Vegetables and risotto were underdone. When we asked for bread for pasta, we got "grilled" pita and told they could bring Italian bread if we wanted it. The Thai calamari was very good. Grilled octopus was ok but a little over sauced. The fillet of Branzino was well seasoned and the lemon sauce was tasty. We enjoyed the $19.95 90min unlimited sangria, wine, mojito and margaritas available sun-thur. After dinner, we walked through parking lot to water where there were benches to sit. The wait staff was very attentive and efficient. Not worth the drive from jersey but ok if you are local.

Holly and Fernando were both very friendly, providing amazing service! Restaurant is spacious and located by the water, giving off a romantic and intimate dining atmosphere! Now onto the main subject of the review, the food: Tuna and salmon tartar (2/5) - Beautifully constructed, but not perfectly seasoned nor were it that fresh. The chips were half soggy, which detracted from enjoying the dish. It's decent but not too memorable. Octopus (5/5) - Perfectly cooked and seasoned, with a great sauce that provides a creamy and savory finish! Highly recommend! Ribeye (4/5) - Perfectly cooked medium rare, but unevenly seasoned, easy fix though with the salt shaker! Rack of Lamb (2/5) - Great flavor, but unfortunately undercooked and was overly rare. Definitely need the sauce though, so I recommend coating it with a bit more sauce, for you can see how some pieces didn't have as much sauce nor did the plate have enough to for each of us to dip it. Seafood Risotto (10/5) - No, that's not a typo! This is by far one of the best risotto we ever had and will definitely come back for it in the future! The only minor issue is that many of the meats from the mussel and clams fell off, so it was just a bunch of shells. Nonetheless, highly recommend it and you won't regret it! Tuna Florentina (1/5) - Definitely one of our least favorite dish, where the tuna is so flavorless and the orecchiette was unevenly cooked, where some pieces were soft and some were hard. Don't recommend this one. Linguine Carbonara (3.75/5) - Very rich, creamy, and seasoned well. Didn't taste bad but also wasn't anything too special; can't go wrong with it though! Soft shell crab pasta (4/5) - Fun and delicious dish, where the soft shell crab provided a nice contrast in terms of flavor and texture! Pretty good! Overall, things were good but not perfect unfortunately. Location and service were great as it is, but the food can be improved on. However, food came out quick and together, which is a plus! Blue definitely has amazing potential and I have no doubt they'll continue to grow and improve! Hope next time I can give them the 5 stars that I know they are definitely capable of obtaining! Thank you for reading and best of luck! (:

UPDATE: My second time visit here. The weather was so fantastic, such a peaceful view from the restaurant. I was there with a friend. We ordered vergin drinks , stuffed lobster tail & pasta. First time trying lobster tail & it was delicious. My friend didn't like his pasta dish at all, the drinks were ok. To finish it up we drank coffee . Prices were higher like usual, service was good. We did have a good time there . I will add some new pictures! I can't believe I waited so long to try this restaurant, even tho it's in the island & near my area ! The decor is nice , place is clean , service was excellent! My server McKenzie was just awesome..! The price is high , but after the taste of food I wasn't too sad about it...! If it was little cheaper I would probably be here a lot of time, for just one person the bill is pretty high . Only ordered a Virgin Mojito, one main course, one dessert & a cup of coffee! I loved the Shrimp & The Spring Cake. Coffee was fresh & the Mojito was ok. If you are visiting & want to have some good yummy food definitely a place you need to visit .
