    We are a party of 11 with 5 kids. This is not an easy group to manage! The service was outstanding. They were patient with the kids but were always there when needed. It's always nice when a server allows a kid to order for themselves, even though it takes longer . The food was superb, and everyone loved their dishes. We tried the braised short rib, lemon & parmesan campanelle, iceberg salad, roasted woodland mushrooms, and tuna tartare. The kids meals were huge and very tasty. We are always a little worried dining with 11 but not need at BluEmber everything was great.

    I had blueness/sea food dish for dinner which was very salty. 5 hours after eating dinner…I was violently sick with gastrointestinal symptoms. Called the restaurant next day about my experience and asking not to serve same food to other guests to prevent what I went through. I spoke to the manager in charge and asked about the restaurant policy if one become sick from eating in the restaurant. His response was that he can offer me water and crackers!!!

    We were unable to eat there due to intense winds. There was a heater but the wind was too strong to eat outside.

    The service was awfully slow. We waited for our drinks for 30 minutes and the server said that it cannot be faster cause he is serving other customers.

    We've been to Blu Ember twice before and had a nice time. This time, the receptionist was grumpy and short-tempered, the carpet where our table was located was dirty and the door leading to the outside, next to us, was very loud as it opened and closed repeatedly with Associates coming and going. The food was all right but not wonderful, as is usual. The Caesar salad was all Romaine stems (there need to be leaves on them, at least), plus that awful brown thing in the salad (WTH was that?), and the mashed potatoes with the New York and Petit Mignon steaks were watery. Service was fine but we won't come back, again, since the cost did not justify the experience.
