A fun place to eat with good service. Food quality is average...we were happier with main meals than we were happy hour and appetizer items.

A great dining experience at Blade 1936, food was excellent and service was great I was able to make last minute reservation for New Year's Eve and it was an amazing experience to meet and enjoy a conversation with the owners, they make you feel welcome and it shows how much they care about their customers, the service and quality of their food Thank you !

We love eating at The Blade. The food was wonderful, service was excellent, and the ambiance in the restaurant was perfect for a New Year's Eve dinner.

We were initially disappointed as we made a reservation 2 weeks prior for 5:15. On arrival we were told we could not be seated + it could take an hour. But we had tickets for a 7 pm show. Why - they had so many reservations. And I had just talked with the restaurant the day before + confirmed through Open Table. While I was discussing the situation, a family walked out, and they did seat up at that table. But it was quite distressing that a reservation had been made + confirmed, But we'd have to wait an hour as that would certainly mess up the dinner + ticket plans. Food was good. Staff was really hopping. Bar seating was being used to offset the table availability problem

The waiter was excellent, but the food was disappointing. The octopus was too salty and the chicken scalloping was bland tasting. The spicey muscles in a fresh tomato sauce was very good, however.

I give it 5 stars because I guess it depends on what people prefer, it's very quiet it has good service and the food is well served.

Excellence! From the moment we entered until we left. The service was great and very friendly. The food was plentiful and excellent. Everything was so good and lots of leftovers to enjoy later.

I really wanted to like this place, but our experience was disappointing. The happy hour prices seemed decent at first, but we were served only nine mussels for $9.50, and two of them were completely closed, which is a clear sign they weren’t fresh. I managed to crack one of those closed mussels open, and it smelled rotten. The pasta was decent though, and the portions were generous

Blade is one of our very favorite restaurants! The food and the service are exceptional always. This particular visit was special as we had dinner with friends we haven't seen for quite a while because they moved to the Midwest for great jobs. We used to meet at Blade on a regular basis when they lived in So Cal. The ceilings are high so it can be louder than normal when crowded. But we had no problem with active conversation and we had a great time. An added caveat is that the entire staff and owners are very friendly and go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and enjoying.

We’ve been to Blaze 1936 and always enjoyed our food and we’ve had good service, unfortunately last night we had service so bad we were still discussing it today. We were a large party and when we called for a reservation the girl on the phone was nice and got us right in. The table service was where the problems began. The waiter stood at one end of the table while we yelled our drink orders over the live entertainment. The kids ordered pizzas and they didn’t come out of the kitchen until all of the adults had finished their meals, we weren’t offered oil and bread or drink refills. The waiter never came back to check on us. The kids finally got their pizzas and after they finished we sat there for at least 10 minutes trying to catch the waiters eye and get his attention to give us the bill. Finally we went up to the bar to ask for our check. I assume our waiter was doing double duty as the bar tender but he was totally ignoring our table.

Food was disappointing we had a soggy pizza that at the same time was burnt on the top ?? How is that possible?? We also had a Cioppino that lacked garlic + chilli and seasoning and also had chewy fish and was served with cold toast that was made from stale bread
Service was under par and some of the servers quit while we were there
Layout of restaurant is weird not sure if it is a pizza pick up place a sports bar or a restaurant

Bottom line I would not rush back
