The food was absolutely on point. The roasted garlic on the ribeye is delicious, and the seafood tower is phenomenal. We come to Tallahassee about once a year and my Fiancé always request Blue Halo for the seafood tower. This year however, our server-Emma-had an unpleasant attitude the whole time which was rather unfortunate, and in between music, my brother could hear the wait staff gossiping in the room off to the side. Considering we had an $800 bill, and enjoyed every bite of food, the service left a bad taste in our mouth. Not well done.

We visited The Blu Halo for a girls night. Loved the environment and was easy to get a reservation online. We were seated quickly and helped quickly. We ordered several appetizers that were exceptional. Our entrees came, which were good but then our server seemed to forget us. Took over 30 minutes to get dessert after it was ordered and took over 35 minutes to get our ticket when we we asked for it twice. We ordered to-go food, too, which wasn’t correct but we didn’t realize until we had driven an hour home. Food was great but poor service will keep us from returning.

The meal was tasty and the pinot noir by the glass was outstanding. Very few restaurants offer Paul Hobbs by the glass and it was a real treat along iwth my chicken.

Went to The Blu Halo on graduation weekend. I guess they just chose to consolidate all the expensive menu items and make that the menu for this weekend. That’s fine, but they took off a bunch of items I would have preferred to have had. Oh and then they turned down the quality on all of what they did serve. Steak was tough. Grouper tasted like rubber. Chicken was small and overcooked. Our waiter tried to do the best he could, but that only goes so far when half the menu is missing and the food that is served is not good and WAY overpriced. Also, the people at the tables next to us were very loud. I couldn’t hear the person sitting across from me. I realize the restaurant can’t control that, but still just added to the letdown that was our restaurant experience at the Blu Halo. Honestly, will not return.
