★ 4.3 / 5 from 203 reviews

Dining at Blue Stem offers a mixed experience. While some diners raved about the breathtaking views, delicious food, and excellent service, others were less impressed. Complaints centered around poor service, overcooked food, and lackluster ambiance. One reviewer even pledged not to return after three disappointing visits. Despite these negative comments, a majority of patrons enjoyed their time at the restaurant, praising the friendly service, tasty dishes, and overall enjoyable atmosphere. It seems that a visit to Blue Stem could be hit or miss, with many eager to give it another try.

I have tried this restaurant three times now and unfortunately, it has struck out each time. The service was just as poor as before, and this time the food was also disappointing. The Caesar salad had limp lettuce, the medium-rare burger was overcooked, the carrot cake dessert was very stale, and the coffee was barely warm. Moreover, without the stunning views that this place offers in the summer, the atmosphere was lacking in appeal. I will not be returning to this restaurant.

The view at this restaurant is breathtaking! The service is excellent and the food is delicious. We had a great time and only recently found this gem. We can't wait to come back in the spring!
