Blue Tapas Bar & Cocktail Lounge

I was pretty disappointed in the food and service here. The reviews for this place were outstanding so I thought it would be a great place to take a friend. It turns out it was an extreme embarrassment. It started when we entered to be seated. We requested a booth which was denied because there were "none available" however two could be seen in plain view from the entrance. I asked someone else and they had us seated there within 5 minutes. When we finally were seated we were only given one menu and the poor lighting in the dining area makes it extremely difficult to see a menu right in front of your face let alone if you're sharing it with another person from across their worn out poorly finished tables. I love being able to see painted 1/4 inch plywood when I'm out for a nice dinner! Eventually, since our waiter disappeared, I got up and asked for another menu at the front and was informed that they were "almost out" of menus. Come on people this place wasn't even filled to 50 percent of its capacity during happy hour! The server was hit or miss and it took 2 separate requests to simply obtain a drink menu. So by this point I've established that the service is incompetent at best. Maybe the food will be good though right? It was mediocre at best and seems as if it was prepared a few hours ago. The utensils had food crusted on them and since our waiter is also a disappearing magician we just ended up sharing the one set that was clean. He magically reappeared after we finished our luke warm food and I couldn't' wait to get the check. I'd have been more proud to take someone out to Waffle house than this place. At least the food would be reasonably priced and hot not to mention your server can only disappear to a very limited amount of places.

My first time going to a club in South Carolina, and this place was popping. Diverse crowd, good dj, and everybody seemed to enjoy themselves. The best part of the night was when I got the bill, and it was $28. I had a smile from ear to ear. In any major city, the bill would have been 3x that amount. Good times for sure.
