The Blue Rock Restaurant & Bar

My first time here  and I loved it. The food was wonderful, great drinks and
pleasant company. Chef Ramirez hit it out of the park. There was even live jazz. It all added up to a memorable night out. I'll be back soon!

I love the energy and atmosphere of the little quaint place. Unfortunately they were really busy and started to get flustered waiting for someone to take our drink orders. When we finally had to stop a waitress, it was not much help as she had a heavy Argentinian accent, and tried hard to sound out her list of drink specials. I had to spell out my order. The bartender was our server as well which was tough because we were not sitting @ the bar, and he was pretty busy making drinks. My boyfriend complained his beer was 14 dollars so I panicked and only ordered 2 appetizers. The bartender/server did not take the time to ask our entree order, so again had to order from the Argentinian girl. I had a bad feeling when she looked confused but said ok she got the order. Then another server went to place scallops in front of me, which I did not order, and my boyfriend did not want to wait for my shrimp skewers to be ordered correctly. Everyone came and apologized, and the bartender said they would only charge the shrimp app. price if I ate the scallop dinner. Out of despair I said alright and tried one that was gritty and felt upset that I did not get the shrimp because of the girl not understanding English well. It was very disappointing because our crab cakes and black bean cakes were very delicious. I was also upset because I never go out to dinner with my boyfriend because of $$ and a rocky relationship, this was our Valentines meal. I started to tear up, and had to leave to wait for him outside, it was very embarrassing. I will attempt the Blue Rock again when it is less busy and with different company. Even though the Argentinian girl was very pleasant I believe the language issue makes me wonder why they hired her, it is no fun to have to just grin and bear it when you can not understand people in the service industry.

Awesome dinner at this neat spot. Sat at the bar, met some friendly people and the best bartender, Jeff. We will return soon and often.
