“ We enjoyed a most wonderful dinner at Darker Than Blue last night!!!! The server Kyle was so friendly and the service was perfect. The food was delicious!!!!!!!! We were too full to order dessert but the choices looked good! The owner introduced himself- such a charismatic and warm guy. We will be back! Loved the ambiance. ”

“ Mouthwatering down-home southern cuisine, served with personal flair... cozy casual atmosphere. And there's no better tonic than the Grille's classic boomer soundtrack to put a glide in your stride and a tingle in your hip bone...Only the most classic tall tales are served up at the bar. The essential prelude to a ccperfect meal hot skillet cornbread melts in your mouth and never ever disappoints.... Bread pudding is the "go-to" closer for dessert whenever it's on the menu. ”

“ Reservations required. There are no substitute items unless you order a side separately. We had already reserved our place here, so we were set. The people are very friendly, and it appears to be a Southern/Cajun mash up. Modern setting, a bit of flashy decor well placed and overall classy. We ordered The Prime Rib, Blackened Fish, and Cajun Salmon. Cornbread for the table. The prime rib was delicately spiced and cooked to perfection. Very tender, very flavorful. Red mashed potatoes and asparagus delicious. Cornbread was lightly gritty but buttery and moist. The blackened catfish was really good and done Cajun style. The Cajun Salmon was well executed, boasting sweet meat and spicy flavors contrasted. This place is very nice for dates. I would suggest you book ahead. Dress casual but nice. Moderate pricing. I'd recommend a visit to see for yourself. ”

“ First time here. It is by reservation only. We came because I saw they had beef ribs and it was a request of my date, got there to find they were daily specials and that day was not the day. The server talks fast, and couldn't hear us, or maybe the music was up a little loud. I like that it wasn't overly crowded and there was spacing. The space is very nice and intimate. The food, it seems accommodations are not available, no alterations can be made, so I was a little sad about that. But the food over all was very good. That cornbread though, baaaayyyybeeee! It's delicious, I'd go back just to eat that!!!! Very good! I told a lot of people about it, and they said they would try it out too. ”

“ We came in on a Sunday for the brunch buffet. The restaurant itself is neat and well designed. The staff was pleasant though the young lady attending to the omelette and waffle station appeared to be overwhelmed as she was preparing them for the entire restaurant (two floors) as well as helping to turn over the buffet items. Thus it took quite some time for waffles and omelettes to come out and she forgot a couple of people's orders. The waiters also forgot drink orders as well which I'll chalk up to there only being two of them. A suggestion would be to have two omelet stations so that one poor soul isn't being pulled in 100 directions and increase the serving staff. The food was a mixed bag. I tried a little bit of everything... *Takes deep breath* The sausage patties were what you'd expect, the grits were runny and bland (or rock hard and bland depending on the batch), the curried chicken was tasty, the green beans were devoid of flavor, the fried chicken wings were not well seasoned, the greens were outstanding, the fried fish was mildly seasoned, the mac and cheese was either very good or extremely salty, the waffles were fluffy and scrumptious, the biscuits were perfect in texture, and the gravy was savory. As you can see, there are quite a few options. The consistency isn't constant and some items were duds but you cannot deny the value. The entire brunch is $42.50 a person and includes bottomless mimosas. It's hard to beat that in the city! The verdict is that Darker Than Blue is worth a visit for brunch. You're likely to find at least a few foods that resonate with you. And if you don't, just start knocking back those mimosas until you forget about it. ”
