My wife and I stopped in for lunch today. The remodel is a great improvement from the old Goose. It's a modern decor that is open and comfortable. I had a retro dish the "tomato dipper" It was a grilled cheese sandwich with tomato basil soup. A great combination for dipping the sandwich. My wife had the cobb salad. The food and service was great. We will be coming back. read more

Blue Goose's recent remodel is definitely an upgrade over its former look. What was once a dive bar now has the look of a legitimate cocktail and dining establishment. To start, my wife ordered the Shore-ly You Jest mocktail, which was tasty and refreshing. For our appetizers, we ordered the spinach and artichoke dip and the steak bites. Of those, I preferred the spin dip. Both apps came with a baguette, but chips can be requested for the spin dip. As for our entrees, we got the chicken sandwich, the goose burger, and the bacon-wrapped fillet, which was a special. Of those, the burger was definitely my favorite. It was cooked how I requested it (medium rare), and the fried cream cheese was a unique touch. The chicken sandwich was a bit bland, and the fillet was unfortunately overcooked. Overall, this is a decent place to grab drinks and/or a quick bite. read more

We went for happy hour on a Thursday around 2:30 pm. I love that they start their happy hour a little earlier than most (as I am a recent "retiree"). The menu features mostly drink specials. The only food disvlubr are the $1 wing dings. The drinks were strong, service at the bar was friendly, wings were above average (try the Jamaican jerk sauce - fantastic!) My perch sandwich was very good. It's served with fries and a yummy creamy coleslaw for $15. They have 1/2 off wine bottles/Ladies Night on Wednesday nights, wherein you can, for a $5 ticket, enter yourself to win a designer handbag! Thursday night is Trivia Night. The restaurant is very clean and friendly. With so much competition on the Nautical Mile, they're on track to keep a loyal clientele for years to come. Cheers! read more

Good to be back at the goose. Had wings w the family. About average i would say- wings were on the smaller side....beers and cocktails were good. Decent happy hour 2-5 M-F read more

My husband and I were looking forward to returning to the Blue Goose after the remodel. We enjoyed our dinner last night. Service was friendly and efficient. I ordered the perch dinner and my husband special ordered his burger. The food was great and the atmosphere, including many families, was wonderful. We plan to return soon! read more

I came here on a Thursday night for happy hour and trivia. At 5, I sat at the bar alone and made a few friends while getting some work done. The bartender was very attentive and super nice. We all gushed over how delicious the food was. I enjoyed the rice and beans, though everything seems tasty. The trivia leader does a great job and my team had a lot of fun! The questions weren't too difficult, but ones we still found challenging. It was a fun night out to laugh with friends. read more

We had an amazing evening with family at the Blue Goose. Food was great, comfortable atmosphere for everyone. Waiter was excellent. We will be back. read more

We were there on a Taco Tuesday, but the whole menu was great. The perch was especially delicious. This would be a great place to go when it's cold outside and there's live music inside. read more

The food was great. I ordered the whitefish. It was a generous size portion and it came with perfectly cooked fresh green beans and yummy mashed potatoes. I had a draft of Bells Two Hearted with my meal and another while watching the band perform. Lots of people were dancing and everyone was having a good time. We ended up making friends with the people at the table next to ours. The waitress was very attentive and took good care of us. read more

Had to check out the recently remodeled place!!! They did a great job updating the decor. Service was great! I had the Rancher's Ribeye...cooked exactly how I ordered it. Drinks are good!! Once the band starts...you can't hear to talk so make sure if you're going to talk to each other..you go before the band because it's super loud!!! read more

Went to see band called 5 loose stones - they were 5 stars - mostly 90s - early 2000 music. Drinks only- had dinner elsewhere. Bar waitress was working very hard. Got bill -they added on an extra beer that I didn't order. Would have taken wayyyy to long to get it off receipt- just bit bullet & paid read more

Great place! Good food; great staff; enjoyable entertainment!! There was a young girl singing that no doubt will have a great career with her voice!!! read more

Just popped in for a Beer and Dinner! Sat at the bar because the place was packed. Band Jody Rafoul was playing and they are amazing. The atmosphere was great and looked recently remodeled. My steak bite appetizer was a meal and was perfect. Ice cold tap beer in a frosty tall mug. Im definitely going back. read more

I received a yelp notice the Blue Goose Inn had opened/reopened. I love the remodeling they did, I will miss the old woodwork but the new style I think is much more inviting. Jen was our server and she was fantastic. Onto the food. My husband and I shared the Feta dip appetizer, the crostini loaf was amazing, warm, soft and crunchy with olive oil and Parmesan cheese. The dip was tangy and creamy. I got the Yellowstone burger with a side of Mac. Loved the burger was cooked perfectly, fries were seasoned and hot, the Mac was good and creamy but needed some breadcrumbs for some extra texture My husband got the ribs which came with fries and bean soup. The soup was a bit different as a side but very good. Ribs were tender but not falling apart with a nice amount of bbq sauce for him but others might want a little more. read more

Went for happy hour 2-5( nice early hours) prices ok.$1 to $2 off. Food option limited to wings. The ones I ordered with the garlic sauce had a good taste but unappealing consistency. ( some nightly specials like Tuesday Tacos). Service was friendly and efficient. The bar is large with nice lighting. Several high and low top options in dining area. read more

Eh- pretty tough bites for medium well with a pink center. The bread was really good and fresh though lol. $35 for this app and a glass of wine. There is happy hour during the week and will give that a try- maybe. The ambiance is cool and staff were friendly. Free Parking lot available. read more

The goose burger I a mighty tasty late night treat. The takeout I ordered was hot and ready when the joint said it would be. Service was more than acceptable. The ambiance was slow as it was late on a Tuesday evening, but the place appeared clean, had an outside patio, and I will be back to dine in. The only item I wasn't stoked on were the coconut shrimp. They were a bit over coconut-tempura fried for my taste, but still definitely edible, and would probably appeal to most patrons. I'm just picky about my seafood items is all. Go there, eat, and enjoy!!! read more

Stopped here, intrigued by the menu and affordable pricing. Greeted promptly and told the wait would be about 20 minutes. About 10 minutes later we were escorted to a booth and promptly greeted by a waitress asking for a drink order. She was quick and understood they we needed a moment. We ordered a gin rhubarb and I ordered an eclectic. The gin rhubarb - name different on menu and identifiable was a bit sweet and refreshing. The eclectic was bourbon and rum and unexpectedly delicious. Our meals posted below were yummy- albeit I'm a a known salt addict and had to add salt to my jumbalaya. The jumbalaya just enough spice without being scary and plenty of chicken, shrimp, and sausage. The dirty rice was probably the same for both dishes and I'm not hating on it- it was good. It was busy! The conversation was a subtle roar throughout. We will definitely be back! read more

I don't usually leave reviews, but this place deserves it! Let me start by saying I'm what most people call a foodie--or maybe even a food snob. I first discovered the Blue Goose when I was living in Grosse Pointe, and I was hooked from my very first visit. It quickly became my go-to spot. Why? Because everything about it is on point: the staff, the atmosphere, the food, and the overall vibe--they've nailed it! Shoutout to the fabulous Melissa Turner, the Cutie Patootie behind the bar. She's absolutely amazing--super sweet, always on top of things, and somehow knows what you need before you even have to ask. And the food? OMG. It's consistently amazing--I've never had a bad meal there, not once. If I could, I'd give the Goose 10 stars. It's that good. Mark Donatiello read more

We are a long time Blue Goose patrons. We moved away last year to the tip of the Michigan thumb. We came back to St. Clair Shores for Dr's appointments and thought we would give the remodeled Blue Goose a try. I was prepared for disappointment because we loved the old place. I was wrong, it was great. We liked the new menu and the prices were good. The service and food was great and as long as they keep up with live blues music, all will be well. Peace! read more

Food- Steak bites and Greek salad were so tasty! I also loved my dirty martini. Service- our waitress was excellent. Ambiance- We arrived on a Saturday at 4:10 and got the last table in the bar... the hostess said if we didn't want that table it would be a 40 minute wait for a table. I heard there was a line waiting outside before they opened. read more

Fun. Great food. Great service. Sports on every TV. Go on football Saturday (college) or Sunday (pro). But do go. It's fun.

The renovations of this place were incredible. It's fresh, it's new, it's alive. The food is great, the drinks are amazing, the only downside was when we went they had the loudest band of all time playing. But they let us move outside where we enjoyed our meal. Great place. read more

Excellent overall experience. Attentive staff getting us seated. Great food with fair portions. Excellent atmosphere and great service.

Bar staff. Ordered a cosmo and it tasted tart. Asked server about it and she made it with lime juice, vodka and cran no triple sec and was upset when I asked for a different drink. Left without ordering dinner since she copped an attitude after that. read more

I came here with friends for lunch. Casual atmosphere but a full bar. I had the perch sandwich which was good. We don't have perch at all where I live so I get all I can when I'm in MI. Service was ok, read more

This spot is a "hood" H!T. Mario (our server) was quite accommodating, we requested to move to a less busy side of the room, promptly assisted. The place was lively in the dining & bar area... the band set up & ROCK'd the nite away... my mom even danced w/ the ladies on the floor, blue eyed young soul created cool vibe! We ordered cocktails, a long island & white sangria, both refreshing. The yums we sampled, the feta dip w/ baguettes, cod platter & jumbo shrimp/fries, all D3L!SH, nice size portions & HOT! You'll wanna make your way there this summer, DP3 N3W SPTVfor our l!l nautical town! ~R33 read more

Second time coming to The Blue Goose and it's the second time that I was not thrilled with my food. Last time I was here was it was close to when they opened and they were busy to say the least. I get they were trying to get the wrinkles out, but the problem was my steak came way undercooked (rare) to the point that it was still mooing. This time that I came (2nd visit) I ordered the chicken wings and they were just the opposite of my steak, welllll done, extra dead, dry and chewy. I had to Ask for some dipping sauces to cover the dryness of the wings. You would think I would have received at least a ranch dressing, but I had to ask. The sever was so slowwwwww. The ambience was good since we were able to have a table outside on their new outdoor seating area. A bit noisy with all the Jefferson traffic, but it is what it is. I'm going to give them another chance, but I have to continue to visit the establishment. (friends), I'm going to drink my dinner. read more

Service was good. Place looks refreshed and cool blue. Went there at 5 pm on a Tuesday and it was 3/4 full. Ordered the mahi-mahi with a small Ceases salad. Salad was small with tiny croutons and the dressing was good. The fish looked good but did not taste like mahi-mahi. It's was much denser than it should have been, not flaky and not whiteish. It was moist. I've had mahi-mahi many times and this was more like swordfish or shark chewy but with no flavor. Quite disappointed. And then the band started. So loud that I could not hear my buddy sitting across from me. read more

I don't like to give out five stars too generously but after coming back to Michigan to help my mother my wife told me the Blue Goose is opening again. So we decided to go there and give it a shot. To my amazement they totally remodeled the entire building inside and out and it is beautiful. There was a short wait so we went out and sat on the patio while we waited for our opportunity to have dinner. There was plenty of help and everybody was pleasant and very helpful. We were seated in less time than we were told which was nice and we got a prime seat and a beautiful window looking out onto Jefferson Avenue. Place was quite packed but our waitress got to us very quickly and got all of our orders we ordered the steak bites as an appetizer they were totally amazing nice chunks of Prime Steak with mushrooms broccoli and sun-dried tomatoes my wife and I killed the entire appetizer. She ordered the mahi-mahi and I ordered the white fish. To my surprise the white fish was cooked absolutely perfect nice little Char around the edges a few Capers on top and seasoned perfectly rarely can you just eat your fish right off the plate with no additives but that's just what I did and it was perfect. Her mahi mahi was more of a tropical Style having pineapple and a Bahama type seasoning it was also cooked perfectly and it was delicious. If the Blue Goose can keep up the good work I think they are going to be the new success story in St Clair Shores. I know when I come to town I'll be back to the Blue Goose Inn. read more

Can I just say I downloaded yelp today just for this restaurant. We went here for Father's Day the Sunday that past, and we were a family of 18, so you can imagine how stressful that would be for a waiter. Except our waiter was wonder and took the time to make sure our order was perfect. Even when our food was a little late he made sure to keep checking on us and letting us know it would be out soon. We had never been to this restaurant before so we were nervous that the food would be bad but we were so wrong. Our food started to come one after the other and it was delicious! I even asked my family members to see if the enjoyed theirs as well and they said they loved it. I also just want to add that that aesthetic of the restaurant is so beautiful and neatly on theme! And then you enter the bathroom and it's beautiful, smells good, and kept clean! Whenever I get the chance I would definitely come back! read more

Went on a saturday afternoon it was packed, but no wait for a table Great see server, Attentive and quick. HAD STEAK tips so good except why brussel sprouts to ruin the flavor. Hubby had a burger, said it was decent nothing really special. Now the negative,noise,noise and this was afternoon. Can't imagine the evening with a band. if you can handle the noise, give it Try! read more

We came here about a year after opening. When they opened you couldn't get a table easily. We walked in a couple weeks ago with no issue. My partner liked the music, but it was too loud. People may want to talk without yelling. Why do restaurants do this? The wings and burger were good. We'll try it again. read more

The place is newly renovated a couple years ago. Great atmosphere. Sat in a table by the windows to watch the cars drive by on Jefferson. If you crane your neck just right you can see the lake. It is like when you are going to Mexico and they say the room has an ocean view. Lol. Thank God that is not the reason we came here. My Bloody Mary was great and the Riesling was Grand Traverse late harvest. Very tasty. And we haven't even got to the food. The white fish amazing and the mashed potatoes were hot. Which I love. It is hard to find mashed potatoes hot at most restaurants. The dessert that I had was just ok. Homemade blueberry cobbler. Not enough fruit. More ice cream than cobbler. But, the white chocolate profiteroles were amazing. Service was ok, not very attentive. But, very nice. I do appreciate nice over efficient if I can't have both. My new favorite restaurant. I am in love. read more

Tried it on a whim. Great service. Food was very good, nice portions and super tasty. We sat on patio which had a nice vibe. Music often, which is a total plus. We will definitely go back! read more
