“Update: Came back tonight to give this place another chance and it was totally worth it. The meatballs were delicious and big improvement on the lobster bisque and chicken. Our waitress Nadeen was wonderful, inviting and prompt. We will definitely be back.

Upon entering the restaraunt, the host greeted us and made us feel special when bringing us to our table. My husband and I ordered the calamari, meatballs, lobster bisque and carbonara with grilled chicken for dinner. The bread and oil that came out was delicious. We had received our calamari which was amazing and a sizable portion. Honestly our favorite part of the meal. After waiting for a while , our meals were about to be dropped off when it was found that it was the wrong items. Our waitress Gwen stopped over later on to check in and we inquired about our meatballs. She informed us she didn't hear us and offered to put them in. After the long wait for our entrees we skipped on this. Our entrees arrived and the grilled chicken was super dried out/ not very edible. The carbonara was pretty good. The lobster bisque was good but the lobster claw provided was extremely overcooked. For the service, the owner was very helpful, ensuring we had drinks, checked in with us and was charismatic. Gwen's check ins with our table were infrequent, inspersonable and it seemed she was not strongly knowledgeable about the menu and offerings. Overall, the food was good, but our waitress needs some additional training. We would definitely return based on how the owner genuinely tried to make things right.“

“The owner operator here knows his buy. Not just cooking, but people as well. Seated in the middle of Durhams' UNH shopping district, this place is amazing in both food quality, atmosphere and PRICES. The all you can eat breakfast is a no-brainer at $14/plate. The burgers are handmade, and the ingredients are as good as 110 grill, Applebee's or 5-Guys, for a much friendlier price.

If you happen to be in the area, or are a student looking for top end food without breaking the budget? Blue Flame needs to go in your list.“

“Love this place and their chicken parm. We went there Saturday after the week from hell. Michelle A had no idea who we were, and had no idea what a bad week we had and still provided us the best service I could have asked for. She knew her job and she knows people. She gave us the best experience at lunchtime anyone could have ever asked for. Knowing nothing about us and not knowing how rough we had it that week and STILL being so kind, patient, talkative and helpful is proof that she is a true asset. It’s not her behavior just because someone is having a rough time, it’s her every day. Thank you for being you and being so kind to us! Please show her this. She needs to know the impact she made!“

“Was awesome to find a quality coffee bar open after the show we went to last night. Especially coming from Quincy ‘the DirtyQ’ MA, which is a coffee desert. 13 DD’s but no coffee to be found. We had legit espressos in demitasse ( no paper cups which ruin the experience )before heading south again. 👍✌️🚀👽🚴‍♂️“
