We love to visit Bleu whenever there’s a downtown concert or game. It’s our “go to” spot.

We had a choice this evening of the special three-course Valentines menu or ordering off of the menu. We were just as happy ordering off of the menu… Best fried green tomatoes ever and wonderful and interesting dining choices. Shannon did a great job of getting us our food quickly and efficiently. We loved sitting directly across the street from the FedEx forum to people watch and get a good feel for the Westin Hotel.

The waitress was great but bar was understaffed and took way to long to receive a drink with the meal. Food was ok but not worth what was paid.

We come to Bleu often before games and other events at the FedEx Forum. We always get good service and food. Try the corn chowder and pear salad are delicious. The menu changes seasonally which is great since we go so often.

Food was adequate. Service was poor. We were one of two tables, yet waitress did not get our orders correct. Food came to our table chaotically... and cold. Had a trouble getting refills on drinks. Servers definitely were not up to standards expected for this price range.

We were 10 minutes late and had not called. The staff had given our table to another family but quickly worked to get us a table. Receptionist and waitress were very accommodating as we were hurrying to get to a basketball game! Thanks to everyone at the restaurant we were in our seats prior to top off!
