    July 27 2025 second visit— second visit just as amazing as our first. The braised rib was unreal. Had to get the pumpkins and the truffle dumps again. Duck salad is some kind of magic I have no idea how it tastes so good. Mushroom noodles i would pass on next time, they are very lightly seasoned, I prefer more intense flavors. Lovely server as well who was also acting host. We all said we have no idea why this place isn’t jam packed on a Sunday at lunch but it should be!!!! Super nice patio also. So good. First visit: Such a fantastic experience at Blue Whale for dinner tonight. Arrived early and grabbed a cocktail in the bar: cocktail menu is diverse with exciting flavors and ingredients and my selection was absolutely beautiful (and delicious). Seated in elegant dining room I noticed similar attention to detail in design from Empress by Boon— brushed brass and blue velvet with thoughtful lighting. A beautiful space. Our server Ashley was truly outstanding— recommendations for wine pairings, portions and coursing were all spot-on. She really made it a memorable experience for us. Food was amazing we ordered the duck salad, truffle XLB (wow!), pumpkin puffs, sea bass and duck noodles. Every dish was not only favourful and exciting but also beautifully plated and fun. Cannot wait to come back— so refreshing to have a fine dining experience with friendly staff, great portions and good cocktails!!
