Rathbun's Blue Plate KitchenReliable Food and Good wine listCome here for local cuisine. The ahi tuna tartar is served on a cucumber slice topped with a slice of jalapeño. The pork tenderloin was excellent. We had a Copain chardonnay which was excellent.

Strongly recommended5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMHad an office birthday lunchHad an office birthday lunch there, was wonderful as always.4/22/2013 12:00:00 AMGood Taste, But Small ServingsWhile the food taste excellent, I was a little underwhelmed by the serving size for the price. The shrimp and grits included only three shrimp, while the duck breast entree was about a quarter of a duck breast. I expected a little more for what we paid.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMWe loved this place. wishWe loved this place. wish we would of found it earlier...4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMLove the Food.

Chef Jennifer has changed up this item from last season and it is still phenomenal. Better than the Low Country.4/9/2013 12:00:00 AMA great place no matter the reasonA very cool place, this was my third visit, once for a work meeting, once with my wife, and now with wife and her parents. An excellent menu, the blue plate special is always good. The pimento cheese with pumpernickel is outstanding. This is a great place no matter the reason, from a business dinner of people in suits, or when I was there there were two women in yoga pants, the atmosphere can fit anything. The chef came over to the table to check on our meal. And I especially recommend Texas Tuesdays, with 50% off Texas wine, and cheap Texas draughts and vodka drinks.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful ExperienceFirst visit to this restaurant and had a great dining experience. Tim, our host, was polite and friendly. He made our visit enjoyable and we'll be back again.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Service and FoodMy wife and I stopped by here for an early dinner (5:00 PM) before going to a Stars game. At that time the whole place was quite quiet, with probably 8 people at the bar and maybe 2 other tables. Our waitress (Angie) was attentive to every need. We had the hummus to start, which was delicious with lightly cripsed pitas, and the table breads with an excellent mandarin orange infused butter. I had the duck with scallops and pea risotto, and my wife had the pork belly with Israeli couscous. Both were excellent. Cooked properly, and served within 12 minutes or so. We split a creme brulee for desert, and it was one of the best I've ever tasted. Chef Rathbun even came by the table... a nice touch. We'd go back again.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat place to dine with friends.Great place to dine with friends. Noise level is manageable so you can carry on conversation.

The cuisine was delicious, yielding an inspired, complex spectrum of flavors. The service was professional & attentive. From the Duck Confit Flatbread, to the Lobster/Shrimp/Crab Cole-Slaw, to the grilled Hawaiian Butterfish with Stir-Fried Veggies, to the savory Foie Gras bread pudding, to the hot Apple Pie with Henry's Cinnamon Ice Cream, we enjoyed a wonderful meal!3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMWorks all the way aroundThe food and service is always so good - and it looks so good too.
Best thing about having lunch at Blue Plate - you can have a conversation with the folks at your table. The acoustics make this a perfect working / business lunch or so sweet for just spending lunch time with someone special.
I can make reservations and know that all is well for lunch.
Thank you!3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstanding food. SuperiorOutstanding food. Superior service. The sweet tea vodka drink was out of this world. Cauliflower soup was fantastic, the pork chop was huge. It is loud in the restaurant so if your the parent going out for a special occasion with a group it is perfect. Feels like down home southern cooking kicked up about 10. It is a little difficult to find but I would so go back.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AM
