What Patrick Hogan doesn't like about Blu Grotto at Monmouth Park:
My reservation was for 5pm. Arrived 7 minutes early to find the door locked. The unlocked the door to tell us they don't open until 5pm. Not- would you like to go to the bar until your table is ready?? Our appetizers were ok, shrimp was over cooked. Main course was a seafood dish. The scallops were perfect the class were OK bit the shrimp and lobster were also over cooked. Like eating an eraser View all feedback. What Michael Schuett likes about Blu Grotto at Monmouth Park:
Service was great. Food was good. Obnoxious diners who act and talk (scream) like they are at an outdoor BBQ. Oblivious and inconsiderate to other guests. My husband and I were looking forward to enjoying a relaxing meal which didn’t happen. Very disappointing. These type of buffoon diners should be seated outdoors. View all feedback.

We tried the restaurant during Restaurant Week and were impressed with all three courses. The service was also very attentive.

The restaurant offers nice food with quick service. The tea leaf salad and onion fritters were hits, while the fish curry was light on curry but still worth ordering. However, some customers felt rushed to order food and were disappointed with the dishes. On the other hand, some diners enjoyed a delicious meal with exceptional service. The ambience was praised, with one customer even feeling like they were back in Italy. The waitstaff was attentive and accommodating, with the calamari appetizer standing out as outstanding. Overall, while there were mixed reviews, the restaurant seems to have a loyal customer base who appreciate the food and service.
