We recently came for dinner, excited to try a new spot close to home. Unfortunately, our experience fell short in several areas, though we truly believe this place has potential if some key improvements are made.
First, the service was lacking—wait times was a little excessive (there were 3 tables it shouldn’t take 15 minutes to get drinks), our table wasn’t given silverware or plates for our appetizer until we asked, condiments weren’t stocked, and refills were nonexistent. Went to grab my own ketchup since I didn’t get my sauces I ordered and couldn’t get a hold of a server… every bottle was empty. There was no check in until after the whole table had already boxed their food themselves.
For the price point of the menu, we expected better service from the staff and a more consistent execution from the kitchen. A bit more attentiveness from the staff would go a long way in enhancing the overall dining experience.
As for the food, there were some hits and misses. The Creole Bleu fries were great, creating high expectations for the entrees to come. My seafood platter was decent—the fish and shrimp were cooked well—but the hush puppies were cold, onion rings were overly greasy and difficult to eat. My dad’s steak was ordered medium-rare but arrived cold and blue-rare, which was disappointing. Additionally, the pasta dishes at our table were overly watery, which took away from the flavors we were expecting.
We truly want to see this restaurant succeed because it’s in a great location and has promise. With some attention to detail in service and consistency in food preparation, this could become a go-to spot for locals. We hope to give it another try in the future and see improvements!

I ordered the catfish and grits on the brunch menu. This was good and but for the price it’s not worth it. $30 for 1 piece of fish and a bowl of grits with a little sprinkle of cheese sauce.
We got gumbo and a shrimp platter. Shrimp were some of the best I have eaten!

We’re in town and I was looking for a good brunch place and my mom recommended Bleu. It was a great choice! Shon was our server and he was very nice, he made sure to check in with us throughout. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town.

The staff was very attentive and friendly, the food was great - really well seasoned. Only thing to keep in mind is that the pricing on the menu isn’t updated, when I got my receipt everything was off at least a dollar. For the food - I would say is the pasta I had was a little watery, but the flavor of the sauce itself as well as the grilled shrimp made it worth it in the end. The pasta came with little crisps that were good as well. I started with the spring rolls and although VERY flavorful and delicious, were cold in the middle. The sauce for spring rolls was really good with a tinge of spice to it. Overall great experience and I will be back to try the rest of menu.

Over priced frozen seafood. Place blows. 5 bucks for a side of sauce. Place blows. Enjoy
The food was soooo good. Literally cooked to perfection. I wish I lived closer, so I could visit often. My entire family loved it.
