Nice
Went here as part of the Winterlicious festival. Set menu was nice, had the salmon pate to start. Very nice but would have been nice to have some bread/toast with it. Duck as the main was delicious! Dessert was a pistachio cannoli which I did not enjoy. Overall a nice experience with great wait staff. Unsure if I would return in a hurry.
Blu is an elegant Italian restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere on the ground floor of a Yorkville heritage house opposite the Yorkville library, with a well laid out interior space with a bar at the front leading to the dining areas. I went to try out the Summerlicious 3-course dinner menu – as pictured – which was delicious with the Zoodles (Spiralized Zucchini “noodles”) being the highlight. They have a good selection of wines by the glass in addition to their extensive Wine Menu. Service is attentive and friendly
I love to read the negative reviews first, then the plethora of positive reviews, BLU has it all going on, valet parking, unassuming boutique type building, coat check, lots of tables (make reservations), smart casual dress. This is not your typical Italian restaurant, more upscale with outstanding service. Prices are reasonable and the food outstanding. I started with the tuna tar tar(must have) my wife had the beet salad (really good as well). My main was the wild boar ragou, server told me it was a favourite so I ordered it even though I’m not a gnocchi fan...I loved this dish! My wife had an amazing pistachio crushed rack of lamb, on the side we ordered the truffle mushrooms...omg!!...I’m so full
I’ll take friends and family back to BLU soon
