Inside is a very nice coastal vibe with slight Mexican themes and bad Bunny playing on the speakers The staff were all very friendly and were quick to take our order and accommodate for our 1.5 year old son. Food came out relatively quick which we were appreciative of. Only thing I'll mention is that the cooks tend to cook the steaks a little to the rare side so if you like your steaks cooked well be aware of that. All in all a pretty good Mexican spot that I was surprised to find.

Sangria was good but the rest was disappointing! We had…read morecrispy shrimp and chicken tacos. The tortillas were thick and gummy. I guess they were housemade, but needed some time in a pan or on the grill. Tasted raw and flour-y. Not good. Fillings were okay but nothing special - especially given the cost. $7 for a 4" taco. The yellow rice was gluey AND crunchy -- maybe the worst rice I've ever had! The decor was nice. Ambiance was passable. We were there at a slow time so the energy was pretty low. Service was just okay. Our waiter was new, maybe? He didn't seem very comfortable talking or familiar with the menu. Could've been a language issue or low hospitality IQ. Didn't offer us chips/salsa. I guess you have to order them but I didn't see it on the menu. We asked for no pickled onions on one of the tacos and that was missed. I've been to 100 better Mexican restaurants. We're locals and I guess this is a tourist trap to avoid.

We had Molly as our bartender who was helpful in offering up meal selections and she modified my drink and made it just like one I got to try in the Middle East! We didn't feel rushed, but the space is quite small, so arrive early and get a reservation if you can. Most parking nearby is paid parking through the city so double check or you can get a $$$ fine. The espresso martini style drink had beet shavings on top, something I have never seen before with that drink. It didn't really affect the taste, but it looked cool.

Been wanting to try this place for a while. When we came to town again, we decided it was time to…read morecheck it out. Let's start with some positives. The location is wonderful, located right in the town of Bethany. We sat outside on a nicely done patio that was relaxing and perfect for the weather. The waitress was very accommodating and well trained. She asked about allergies and made sure we had what we needed. When we did not like a dish, they did comp us, which was unexpected. The negatives unfortunately outweigh the positives as we do not intend to eat there in the future. First, it was very overpriced for a tapas place. Each tapa was about 22-25 dollars. These were not a reasonable price for tapas. We ended up leaving hungry. The food was presented very nicely, however, the food lacked in flavor and execution. The tapas all had good concepts but none were great and some were simply bad. The cauliflower was coated in something that made it taste burnt. The gnocchi were not even gnocchi and the dish lacked balance as it was super sweet. The scallops were well cooked but the mushrooms and corn had no flavor. The bison sliders were decent but the buns were hard and burnt and the slider had no sauce. The tuna crudo was probably the best one but it was very oily. Again, good concepts, just poor execution. Cocktails were upwards of 16 dollars and a glass of wine was about the same. I could walk down the street and get a drink for much less. We got other people's food twice as they have people carrying out food that aren't our server. I wish I could rate this place higher but it is not worth the money they are charging.

Food Experience We…read moreordered the tuna poke, flash‑fried whole red snapper, salad with grilled shrimp, and coconut cream pie. Each dish was excellent -- fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The coconut cream pie was a standout dessert, and the seafood dishes were cooked perfectly. Atmosphere We sat at the back of the outside patio, which was pleasant in terms of seating and ambiance. However, the location had some drawbacks: The dumpster was directly behind us, and the smell carried into the dining area. Flies were present on the patio, and it seemed likely they were attracted by the dumpster rather than the breeze. 14 Global, the neighboring restaurant, had a cook who frequently exited the side door next to our table to smoke. The cigarette smoke drifted into our eating area, only 5-10 feet away. Overall Impression While the food was outstanding and the patio seating had potential, the environmental factors significantly detracted from the experience. The proximity to the dumpster and cigarette smoke made the meal less enjoyable. Recommendation I would not discourage anyone from visiting Patsy's -- the food is worth it. However, I would caution diners about the back patio seating, as the location near the dumpster and neighboring restaurant's smoking area can affect the overall dining experience.

From the limp "greeting" at the host stand to the waitress's freestyle interpretation of service, the evening never rose above mediocrity, despite the luxury‑pricing suggesting it might. I ordered the crab spaghetti, lured in by the promise of "whole crabs." What arrived was a thin red broth with a small quartered crab perched on top like a sad garnish. The dissolved, overcooked crab remnants floating in the bowl had all the flavor of warm tap water. And without proper utensils, the "whole crab" was more of a decorative warning than an edible component. My wife had the seafood stew. She enjoyed the toast. For the most expensive bad meal I've ever had, Bluecoast certainly delivered -- just not in the way anyone would hope.

For me the selection was kind of awkward. 1) they only had eggs Benedict to go with their breakfast selections of sausage, bacon , breakfast potatoes, and French toast. *** You need an omelette station or at least scrambled eggs. The egg had no flavor and the English muffins weren't toasted**** 2) the lunch selections were a mixed bag. The Mac & Cheese was a hit. They had a seafood rice dish that we thought was Jambalaya. But actually it was a tomato sauce based over a rice pilaf (kinda like Riceroni. 3) they had fresh seafood... shrimp cocktail, mussels, clams, and oysters. The shrimp were overcooked but still okay and the oysters were good but for some reason weren't shucked. So you had to scrape them of with the fork. The cost was $60 per person and my wife had a couple pear margaritas that were a whopping $14.00 each for a tumbler. So it was a nice day, a nice place, but it's just not worth the price tag. The other Easter brunch spots were booked solid. This place was about 1/2 full most of the time we were there between 11 and 1

They answered all my questions when I was trying to decide what kind of martini I wanted. We also tried the burnt pork belly special, which was really good. I just wish there were a few more pieces that were actually "burnt" or crispy because that's what I was looking forward to. Still, I would definitely order it again! The food overall was amazing. They had TVs playing and a DJ, but it wasn't overly loud, so we could still comfortably talk and enjoy our meal. The atmosphere was fun and lively without being overwhelming. Everything was great, and we will definitely be back!

The portions can be staggeringly huge but the flavor is always able to match! We always order bigggg and this place has been a Family Vacation Institution to our annual Bethany Beach trips. You can smell the smoky aroma of meat all day and even more as you approach! We always order to go so we can sloth in our beach house after overdoing it on food. But in case, you do stagger in- the two story restaurant does come equipped with an elevator to not only deliver you back to the front door, but the whole way to street level. Handicapped accessible, glutton appreciated. We ordered the brisket, pulled pork, carolina pulled pork, pulled chicken, smoked kielbasa, baby back ribs, collared greens, coleslaw, baked beans, mac and cheese, and yesssss... a full platter of cornbread with whipped honey butter! The staff is super accommodating. After placing my online order, I was able to call in and modify with no hesitation. They also have an order tracker, so you can know exactly when it's ready. We love Bethany Blues... and so does all of Bethany Beach!!
