Black & Blue

A great place for dinner and drinks with friends. The beer list is above average and the food rarely disappoints. The pomme frights with housemade sauce never last on the table for very long. The nachos are served in a very large portion and are great for a group of 6. The veggie pizza is very tasty and best shared with a friend or fella. Once I had an Andrew's Garlic Chicken sandwich and wasn't much of a fan, but the side of sweet potato chips were very tasty.

went on restaurant week = Not recommended, they were overwhelmed.  The food was sub par for portion size but the quality was good.

As far as the drinks go i can approve this bar.  The prices are acceptable for what you get but there are a ton of theme gastro pub type places around the area.  Its just too far from me for me to want to go again.

I dont want to give tis place a bad review because the staff is nice if not overwhelmed from what i can tell.  eh.  i give it a meh.

Honestly, if I could give this place 1 and 1/2 stars I would....Unfortunately, yelp does not allow half stars so I went with one star.  I went to Black & Blue tonight with friends for restaurant week.  After a 45 minute wait (where we were bumped for an 'A Lister' who took our table before us) we were seated at 8:30pm.  We waited until 9:15 for our appetizers which consisted of seared tuna and mussels which should not take 45 minutes to make.  Our salad which consisted of 4 - 5 lettuce leaves took another half an hour.  I had ordered a veggie burger (not part of restaurant week) the other 3 at our table who ordered steaks from restaurant week all go their meals and I had to wait another 20  minutes for my burger (which ended up being a frozen patty - so why it took that long is a mystery)  The manager did offer us a free drink to make up for the fact that my meal came after everyone else at the table had finished their entrees but seriously we should not have been there for 2 and 1/2 hours.   Not coming here again....sorry at a restaurant you pay for good service too.
