Amazing Place! Great place to watch a good show.

I had the Wonderful Chicken, Green Beans, and mashed potatoes. Fantastic service. And an added bonus was being able to see all the beautiful Christmas decorations all over town and Blue Gate.

We enjoyed the meal a lot. Plenty of options. The service was very prompt. It was just very loud in that large dining room which made it difficult to have conversations.
We will go again.
The lights and decor were very attractive.

We were there on a Saturday morning and did not have to wait, about 8:30a. This is easy decision on what to eat, buffet. things were kept full and the food was good. This is located in the basement, but.there is a restaurant. We didn't understand the checkout system and didn't get a bill, but the cashier took care of us.

We haven't been to Blue Gate to eat for about a year and we made a special trip to splurge on a meal. My husband and I both had the noodles, they were kind of doughy tasting and was anxious for the carrot cake. Super sweet and the icing was not a true cream cheese icing and the cake had carrots but no nuts or raisins. It was fair and I didn't finish it. My husband said the pie was fair.. Use to have the best food around.. we did the menu as the buffet is to much food. Hoping the next time we will see some improvements.

We bought the buffet along with tickets to the Piano Guys at the Bluegate Theater. It was perfectly okay but not worth the price and wouldn’t do it again. Great service but mediocre food. Buffets are difficult even with the best food but we found the roast beef, ham and chicken all submerged in water to keep it hot and clearly over salted to give it flavor. A+ for effort and service but it didn’t hit the mark.

I really enjoyed the buffet and the bakery. Both are pricey but good. Be nice if you could try some of the items in the bakery before purchasing. Just a sample is all

Was on vacation visiting family and The took us to this excellent restaurant. I had the pressure deep fried fried chicken and it was excellent and just bursting with flavor and was not greasy! And the desserts we all had different pies and they were excellent like they were made at home. I will definitely be back to the blue gate next time I’m in Syracuse Indiana.

Couldn’t get beef and noodles because they are only served on Mondays. Our waitress was the slowest in the whole restaurant, other waitresses were serving their guests their salads and they were seated after us. Then our waitress came up 15 minutes after ordering and questioned us about us wanting the ceaser salad because of the side, like yes we want it, we ordered it! Finally we got our salads and only took 3 bites then we got our meal! We ended up having to get boxes to go! Definitely won’t be back! Our business will be at the Essenhause
