Blue Bistro at NASWA Resort

We celebrated our friends 40th birthday there last night. I can not say enough great things about the staff. They printed a happy birthday sign and but little happy birthday confetti on the table along with an awesome birthday cake that came out with a sparkler and a personal written message and a great birthday song. You do not get that around here anymore. The staff were so attentive, fun and very professional. The food was great. Thank you for making our friends birthday the best.

I ordered the Tuesday night special which included prime rib, chowder or salad, and a glass of house wine. My children ordered meals off the kids menu along with milk/chocolate milk as the menu stated drinks were included. At the end of our meal, I was charged for both my glass of house wine and all of the kids milks (almost $20 total). When I brought it to the waitress’ attention, I was told milk was not included as a drink option for kids, only soda. I let her know that the menu stated included drinks were “fountain soda, juice or milk”. After speaking with the manager, they said the milk was included but not the chocolate milk, despite both being the same price. As long time patrons of the Naswa hotel, we were not impressed with the Blue Bistro staff and will not be returning.

My boyfriend and I had dinner here last night and it was an 11/10. We started with the shrimp cocktail which was gorgeous. I had the baked stuffed haddock... amazing. My boyfriend had the filet Oscar with lobster- it was literally melt in your mouth. Great food, great service, and the lake view was stunning. We can’t wait to come back!

My friend and I sat at the bar which was great! The bartenders were fun! They said they were brother and sister! So attentive and personable!! I ordered the prime rib and my friend ordered the prime steak and we both said we’ve never had better! So yummy and the presentation was great! I guess if I had to criticize anything, it would be the piano player who is very good but just loud and I found it A little difficult to talk. The dining room is open and with everyone talking and then the music it’s just a little difficult She is great just maybe a little softer!! Every waitstaff that i made eye contact with said hello with a smile! Will be back!

This would not have been the same experience without our server/waitress Sashaye. She had one of those personalities no matter what you went through that day it was going to be ok and she would make pains to take care of you no matter what she’s done that day too. Smile and laughter filled her eyes. We have had such a rough couple weeks and She was great entertainment and very sweet to us.

Let us get to the food part of this rant. They have these bread/cakes that had a few herbs baked into it and were served alongside the oil with fresh grated cheese and cracked pepper. The seafood risotto was a decadent meal. They should take pains to remove all the shrimp shells but otherwise quite a delish meal. We got truffle fries because we are truffle freeks which they didn’t disappoint and truly they were out of this world. I believe my husband even ate the crumbs. Possibly kidding but I don’t think I am. We ordered the lobster bisque. This was a very dainty version of a bisque not pretentious and just a tiny spot of lobster centered with pieces of chive as garnish, and beaming with a buttery flavor which I mostly prefer. If you are trying to make a lobster bisque chowder you load it with lobster so this minimalistic amount was perfect. It was more of a bowl size and was really filling even half of it so portion wise it was more than most would expect. The Mykonos salad was a must with steak tips. They were perfectly paired and the dressing “homemade Greek” was the right taste to go with the salad and the steak. The cheese was large chunks like traditional Greek salads and the inclusive chickpeas, chunks of cukes and with plenty of Kalamata olives gave it a hearty meal with a great flavor combo. I personally would have added Bermuda (onions) and some green peppers into the salad but it was perfect just the same and plenty to take home had you wanted. We had to order desserts of course. We ordered the carrot cake and the Tommy Bahama cake which both looked so delectable. You don’t get a dessert menu here our lovely server brings a sample plate of all they offer and once you choose she brings you a fresh plate. Lastly we bought a bottle of J Lohr Chardonnay and it tasted like heaven and the peach notes were perfectly paired with the flavors of a salad. We also got a couple cans of Notch Salem Larger and this is one beer in the can that doesn’t have a can taste. The flavor was mild and not hoppy as some lagers can be. It was light and refreshing.

In closing. Our final comment will be the availability of bubbly bottled water. Saratoga is my favorite so it was lovely that we could get that for our meal. The owner stops at the table during your meal to keep things going smooth and satisfactory. We cannot wait to have our beautiful soul of a server again for our next meal and you should run over to check this place out. Make sure you ask for Sashaye. I’m sure they are all good but we really loved her and the blue bistro. We did end up going for their breakfast for a couple of the days and tried eggs, omelets, cinnamon toast, sausage, roasted red potatoes and bacon as well as their french toast and although a pricey breakfast nothing beats quality and service and both are seen here.

The French Toast is out of this world! Best breakfast around!

I ordered the scallops. The taste was sour not sweet so they didn't seem fresh. There was some coating but it was soft, not caramelized, as if not seared. Worst by far was that every bite was sandy. I know, clams can be sandy, but scallops? I kept thinking the next bite might be better but I gave up and couldn't eat them.
The rainbow carrots were so hard it was difficult to cut them with a knife. I didn't want to complain as my partner was happy with his dish.

Fortunate to get a last minute reservation on a Sat Eve, arrived to lively music and lovely hostess/owner, promptly seated at one of the smallest tables, fine, ordered drinks from the fabulous Sashea, hostess came by and asked if we'd like to move over to a larger table, fantastic service! The evening was Devine. Thai Calamari, stuffed haddock dinner, eggplant rollitini, great music and overall vibe, thank you Blue Bistro for a memorable evening.

We didn’t eat inside the restaurant itself but it looks fun. We ordered off the Blue Bistro menu down at the Naz Bar on July 4th. The dumplings and lobster risotto were so good. My husband didn’t like his burrata salad but the bang bang sauce on the dumplings more than makes up for that.

Not my kind of place. Especially on season. Kitchen overwhelmed and slow to serve. Help was kind and attentive but just had to wait for food. Prices high, portions small. Loud. Just not a fun dinner.
