    Been to Blend many times over the years but was especially disappointed with the food this time. Though my old favorite the Asian Calamari was excellent, my father and I each had the special Beef Negemacki. There was total inconsistency with this dish. It was almost as if we ordered different entrees. The beef was under-seasoned and each of us had different vegetables in the wrap. On the other hand, the jelly donuts were superb and our server Elle was a delight. However, that entree dragged down the whole meal.

    Food was great both seafood and steak. Pricing is within range of the quality of the food you are receiving. The service was right on. Relatively quiet. Nothing worse than a noise dining area that doesn’t allow your party hear one another. The main dining area has more ambiance than their smaller room that over looks the Main Street with walkers and car traffic passing by. If they had curtains going half way up the windows it would probably be perfect, at least more is a desirable room. Would definitely return and recommend.

    We dined here on Saturday night. We had a lovely relaxed meal outside. Our server Deidre was attentive, but gave us plenty of time to enjoy our meal and our company. We had the Asian calamari as our appetizer- a long time menu staple- always delicious, and the tuna bites which were great. I had the halibut on the menu which I really enjoyed, and another of our party had the pork chop. Huge portion- enough to bring home. And since it’s a BYOB that’s an added plus.

    We sat in the "quiet dining area" and it was QUIET! What a pleasant room to be in. The variety of food was impressive and everything was delicious. The crowning gem to our dinner was that the server was outstanding. It is so rare today to find a person like her. We plan on returning soon.

    We enjoyed a leisurely and delicious anniversary dinner with my 82 year old parents in the Quiet Dining Room. Our server and bus boys were attentive and responsive throughout our meal. The food was delicious and prepared to order. Highly recommend The Blend for any special occasion.

    We ate in the small room on a Thursday night before the summer rush, so it was very quiet with just a few other tables. It was as if we were in a private dining room and we loved it! Our waitress was fantastic as was everyone who served us. The four of us were served a focaccia with a roasted garlic in oil that was delicious. We all had the corn and truffle bisque which was out of this world, we’d come back for the soup alone. Two of us had the roast beef, a shrimp and grits and the crab cake. We all loved our meals. The roast beef was a special that is served on Thursdays and we would definitely go back for it. We shared a delicious cheesecake and (2) warm chocolate chip cookies with ice cream that were unbelievably good. It was the perfect end to a perfect meal and we can’t wait to go back.
