    The server was on point. She didn’t make us wait super long to place our order. She came once she saw we were ready. Our food came out quick and they weren’t pressuring us to leave. I’d definitely come back.

    The pernil is cooked perfectly. The meat is moist and the skin is crunchy. The Sope with chicken is delicious. The Miami blue is flavorful and strong.

    The pernil and the ropa vieja were both excellent and very flavorful. The frozen mango and passion fruit margaritas were delicious and strong and a great deal at $8 during the all night happy hour on Monday nights. Will definitely return!

    I’ve been here several times before but this time was just not good. First upon arrival it was extremely hot inside of the restaurant, thankfully there was a table outside. When we were moved the waiter never came, my friend had to go inside to find her. The food and drinks came pretty quick but one of the chicken pieces in our sampler wasn’t cooked. Sadly I’ll never return.

    Food was delicious, just the service was a little slow. Almost a 2 hour wait for food compare to the other Blend in LIC but it’s understandable that it’s a smaller spot. Overall everything was fair.

    I really enjoy Blend on the water the best! Blend in Astoria also much better. This location is very small. People were bumping into us. Very large party interrupting our meal. Very uncomfortable. But server was great!!! The appetizer yummy 😋 Food was ok! Also watch your receipt. Gratuity was included!

    My first time dining in here (Saturday 9/24), I had a reservation and requested a high chair. 2 adults and 1 toddler. Walked in, the hostess assigned us to a table for 2 (small table), im a server too and I know how annoying it can get when customers asking for a different table. I’d hate to be one of those customers but I have a 3rd person so I need a bigger table than the table for 2. I asked her if we can get a bigger table, she gave me an attitude didn’t even answer my question just dragged the table and left. Then a bigger party came in sitting behind us, all of a sudden all servers/hostess only paid attention to them meanwhile I kept trying to get their attention to get a check/Togo box but hostess seemed so busy looking at her phone laughing with the other guy at the bar. I had to get up and give my card instead. Place is really nice, cocktails were good, food was okay, but service is a no.

    We asked for an indoor table due to the humidity outside and were presented with a table inside which was a 🦟 mosquito hive. We were bitten to no end same with the parry next to us. I feel we may have been better off outside. Food was ok, I ordered a Cuban sandwich 🥪 and it was mostly fat.

    Usually an enjoyable experience but this time around was far from that. I’ve been dinning at this location for over 8 + years. We were sat at our table at about 8pm, didn’t receive our appetizers until about 9pm. I was dinning with my 3 years old & 6 year old, which were both very hungry. Our waters were only refilled 1 time. There were tables that were seated way after us who all received their orders prior to us. Food was good as usually but the service was extremely off & it seemed as though it was just our table.
