    My best friend's widow and I enjoyed a lengthy dinner and visit on a recent Wednesday evening at this restaurant. The calamari and trout almondine were very tasty, the service was outstanding (informed and attentive without hovering) and the half-price wine was a nice surprise. I highly recommend Cafe Blue, especially on a Wednesday night.

    Had brunch with a girlfriend there who was visiting out of state. It was really delicious. I had the Eggs Benedict Florentine and she had one of the waffle menu items. Server was very attentive even though she was slammed with full tables of guests. I definitely need to put Cafe Blue- Hill Country Galleria on my rotation of “ go to” restaurants!

    Very interesting and varied menu. The gumbo was superior and coming from New Orleans that says a lot. The Rockefeller oysters were great. The Ahi tuna salad entrée was really good. Great grouper and flounder entrées as well. The service was excellent. Maren did an outstanding job.

    The food was very salty and service was not great. We have been going for many years but the quality of the food including the bread which we usually love was less than usual. We had to ask our server 3 times for water and bread and eventually we got another server to bring it. Disappointed

    Food and service was awesome. Requested outside seating on this app, but when we go there, all outside tables were full and we had to sit inside. They told us that you cannot select your seating.

    I ordered the Chilean sea bass and it was rubbery. My husband had the chicken and it was raw in the center. They did comp his meal, but we won’t go back any time soon.

    One of our oysters had an issue and we were a little unsure if it was safe to eat (we have oysters often and have never sent one back) - instead of getting a new one, our server just said sorry and walked away. Was pretty disappointed about that - the rest of the food was decent and the atmosphere was good. Bathrooms were unfortunately not the cleanest.

    Food and timeliness was great. We had a room to ourselves so it was nice. Usually the indoor restaurant is too loud
