[Out-of-Towner Review]
We wish we found this sooner!
If I had to rate it compared to its counterparts on the property, I'd definitely give it a five-star rating. But, I'm going to stick with my regular rating. I just wanted that to be clear.
If you are staying in the vacation rentals/villas, then the location is perfect for you. For the rest of us, staying at the main resort, you have to catch a golf cart over. Which was BETTER than any ride at an amusement park. Speeding through the property and taking turns like a Nascar driver was super fun hand had us laughing, while almost falling out of the cart.
Once you get to the facility, they tell you to walk down a random hallway and turn left to take an elevator down to the second floor. Once the floor opens, you are greeted with a check-in desk. You do the normal all-inclusive check-in with your room number.
There are not a lot of seats in this restaurant. The large farm style table seemed to have outdoor patio chairs as their chairs. I'm not sure if this is normal or just because they had a huge party. The floor is cutely and appropriately a variety of blue tiles.
Overall this food is some of the best at the resort. We wish we tried this sooner because we would have gone back multiple times. The service was great, as all the restaurants were. This time our server spoke English well, which wasn't always the case during our stay.
There wasn't one thing I ordered that I didn't like. It isn't amazing, gourmet food, but it isn't bad. Not sure how you or I feel about that comparison, but when you've been eating all inclusive food, you take what you can get. I ordered the tomato and bread salad (don't remember the name and had them leave the ham off), the spinach and artichoke dip (that comes with fresh baked bread and its delicious), crab cakes which are too small (and I really disliked the mole sauce), the filet with ash dust, and of course I had to try the truffle shrimp mac-n-cheese.
Everything I ordered was tasty. There wasn't anything I was upset with. Again, this isn't soo amazing I'd pay $60 for this meal, but in comparison to what is on-site, this place is tasty.
I would suggest you try this or the Italian restaurant first and toggle between the two for dinners. But hey, it's up to you...
I was anything but blu(e) when I eat here! read more
