The Blue RoomAmazing buffetCame here for the brunch buffet with a group of seven people to celebrate my graduation. The food was delicious, hot, and fresh. The selection was perfect; enough different dishes to have something for everyone, but not so many that you get overwhelmed.5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMWe.could not have been happier.We.could not have been happier. Post-movie this time, another time we might just come for the good food and superb service.
HB5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent Farm-Fresh MenuWonderful Mother's Day Brunch with wide array of options. (Freshly prepared meats included Duck, Lamb, Pork, Beef, and Chicken.)
Dessert table was fabulous. Seating was extended into the bar area to accommodate for Mother's Day volume, so the ambience wasn't AS good as if we were in the main dining area, but it still was very nice. Food was excellent, but it is a bit overpriced. Family of four with three drinks was almost $180 (which includes a 4 and 6 year old child .... who eat very little.)5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMy mother loved The Blue Room!I took my mother to The Blue Room on Mother's Day and we had a fabulous time! Can't believe I had never been here before. You can't beat the wine sold at retail price on Sunday. I will definitely be back!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMA Kendall Sq. GemAn interesting selection of delicious dishes and cocktails. We sat outside and the space is fantastic as was the service. A great date spot.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMI have been to this restaurantI have been to this restaurant in the past and found that the good was not as good as it used to be. the cut of the lamb which was served to us had too many tendons, making it difficult to cut. and it did not look nice either. the soup was original but there was something missing... the service was good and attentive. noise, as always was very energetic after 6:30 om5/7/2013 12:00:00 AMDo not like the new menuService was lovely, food not so much. The new menu lacks the complexity and strong flavor s that I associate with the old Blue Room. No more large assortment of spicy small plates. Main courses are well prepared, but what someone else might call subtle, I call bland. Our waiter was wonderful and attentive, but I would not rush back.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMA Vermont feel in CambridgeMy husband and I met my sister and brother in law for dinner an a Saturday evening at 7:30. The restaurant was just filling up at that time. Our waitress was very attentive and helpful. She explained the menu to all of us quite eloquently. The meal started off with Meg's sunshine goat cheese with some very memorable chutney. Then we were treated to some smoked treats compliments if the kitchen. For my entree I enjoyed the mussels. A large bowl steaming with broth and some wonderful toast on top. Other meals at the table were the , halibut, skirt steak and duck. Everyone enjoyed their meals. The ambience is "vermonty" with stone walls and firewood stacked up out front. All in all a wonderful dining experience.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMAs Good As EverEvery time I dine at the Blue Room, I have consistently delicious food.
I will be back.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMCelebrate a special birthday hereFabulous dining experience, wine list by the glass was adequate, appetizer with the sausage is as good as an entre the meal for two is a great value and the chicken was cooked to perfection. Then the lemon desert topped off a great evening. Very relaxed, never felt rushed, waiter was attentive little jokes were cute, not over done.
