The brilliant and friendly managers Mauricio and Jeff run a great place for creative food and excellent service on one of Toronto's best patios.

This was my first time here and it was absolutely wonderful. The food was amazing and prepared quickly. There was a nice selection of wine as well. Most importantly our server Michael took great care of us all night! I will definitely be back again.

During our recent visit to Blu Ristorante, we encountered multiple disappointments. The quality of the food did not meet our expectations, and the service was notably slow, with over a 90-minute wait for our main course. Strangely, management pointed to two pieces of prosciutto that sat on our table for a significant time, suggesting we were still engaged with our appetizer and therefore didn't require our main dishes yet. Moreover, they mentioned our ongoing "conversation" as a reason for the waiter's hesitance to serve. By the time our main course arrived, our appetite had waned from the prolonged wait, diminishing our dining experience further. Instead of a sincere apology for the oversight and delay, we received explanations. The prolonged wait unfortunately did not result in a dish that was worth the anticipation.They subsequently canceled my OpenTable reservation, preventing me from leaving negative feedback. I'd recommend looking elsewhere; there are numerous superior restaurants in the city that won't keep you waiting for hours for your main course.

One of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to. We had the Berry Martini Mocktails, we found them to be the perfect blend of sour and sweet. I do have allergies and they were very accommodating. The beef carpaccio was melt in your mouth delicious, and accompaniments delicious. I had the Sweet Potato Gnocchi w Beef cheek and it was absolutely amazing. My boyfriend had the Butternut Squash ravioli, and it was buttery and satisfying. For dessert, the Affogato, biscotti, and Blu cake were the perfect way to round off. This is definitely the place for you to splurge and eat your way around the menu!

- Great experience- Live music loved that- service was good- menu for the average person may bring you to need some clarifications or addition explanation(Hubby and I fine dine all the time, but this menu was a bit tricky)- Watermelon Feta Salad was GENIUS, shouts to the chef on that creation- tuna tartar 4/10 (was ok, didnt love but were not raw ppl)- hubby loved the lamb and i loved the rissoto that came with- I got the stuffed chicken 4/10 for me.We did try and experiment with different dishes we normally wouldn't as to the low numbers but experience was great.Would visit again

The place is very nice and elegant, live music was a great bonus but we couldn’t hear it on the 2nd floor.The food was good, some choices were excellent (like salmon), but some were not (steak for instance, great sauce but the meat could be a better quality)Overall, it’s a nice place

Nice Italian restaurant, perfect smiky staffs. Enzo was our waiter, they did a wrong salad with bacon (we asked without) and even they made a new one cause of our children got upset first, they didn't charge us. I appreciate.Akila was a Host, kind and professionally welcoming.The manager is from Mexico if I am right and he is supervising everything.Other staffs I mean who brings the foods, waiter's assistants, should pass more lessons.I liked the Ravioli, Tiramisù and the Salmon.

We choose Blu for my daughter's wedding dinner with a guest count of 26. The restaurant provided us with a nice semi-private space for our event, and we opted for a fixed menu that offered a well-balanced selection of 4 appetizers, 4 main dishes, and 4 types of desserts. It was wonderful to have the freedom to choose our drinks as well.The food and the overall atmosphere were very satisfying. All the dishes from the menu were top-notch in terms of taste and presentation, leaving a spectacular impression on everyone; our guests thoroughly enjoyed the evening and wished the newlyweds well.Though the restaurant did an excellent job overall, I have a few suggestions for improvement. Firstly, the live music in the second-floor hall was barely audible, and it would have been great if it could be made more prominent. Secondly, the guests were not informed about the menu items, leading to some of them not making the ideal choices for themselves. This resulted in guests exchanging dishes among themselves after they were served.Additionally, I expected a bit more attention and involvement from the waiters, especially considering we spent around $4000 on the dinner for 26 guests including 4 children and 11 adults with soft drinks . Despite these points, the pleasant atmosphere and fantastic food make Blu restaurant a definite recommendation for family celebrations.

Great experience. Came with a group of 8 for a celebratory dinner with the summerlicious menu. Service was very attentive & patient, waiting for all members to show up before we order food. All courses were brought out simultaneously & they were full of flavour, hot & presented well. It was a nice night out in a beautiful location & I would return again for regular menu.

Friendly service and great vibe! We sat on the patio and it started to rain so they moved us inside and we were glad they did! The restaurant had live music inside and the musician was amazing. Food was great and we recommend the ribeye and carpaccio but all of the food that we had at our table of 5 was great! Highly recommend!

A friend booked this for my birthday and I really enjoyed my experience here. The waitstaff were wonderful and the food was amazing. We ordered two appetizers - a pear salad and an eggplant dish. The salad was phenomenal but the eggplant dish was quite small in portion. For our mains we both ordered the special - crab ravioli in spicy rosé sauce and we were not disappointed. Would definitely come here for a romantic date. I've heard there is sometimes live music, but we did not hear any when we went (on a Saturday).

What a great experience, booked our corporate holiday dinner at Blu Ristorante. Yes this review is a bit late coming but people are still raving about the impeccable service especially from their friendly and knowledgeable staff (Mauricio, Luis, David and Nasir - I made sure I wrote down their names for this review)! Do yourself a favour and make sure you make it here at least once because the food was amazing, from the appetizer to dessert. I didn't get a picture of the all the options but these ones still bring back the memories of our night at Blu. Thanks to all the staff, and a shout out to Kamila (Event Coordinator) and Jeff (Manager).

Dined in on New Year’s Eve, and enjoyed a fabulous evening filled with delicious, good looking plates and great drinks. We loved the festive atmosphere. The live music wasn’t too loud, just perfectly enjoyable. The staff was very attentive and responsive. We couldn’t have been happier with our experience.

5/5 for perfect romantic ambience and live music, the artist John Campbell had a golden voice! 3/5 for the food. We got the grilled calamari to start which was excellent. The squash ravioli filling and sauce were absolutely delicious but could have used a few seconds more cooking on the pasta. The truffle mushroom risotto was disappointing, under seasoned and could not taste any truffle in there whatsoever. The chocolate cake was delicious and oozed perfectly when cut but the pairing vanilla ice cream should have been less sweeter. We also tried the Chardonnay and Rieslings and both were great!Our food and wine servers were great, but our main server seemed to have a problem acknowledging me at the table and seemed to want to interact exclusively with my partner. I’m not sure if it had anything to do with our genders but it left a bad taste in my mouth on an otherwise amazing evening.

Went here for dinner for my birthday and the experience was definitely amazing. Fine dining at its best. The waiters were attentive and friendly. The price for the food was more affordable then my guest thought but the food still held a high standard. Definitely willing to go back again.

Nice fancy environment. Great for a quiet, upscale date night!Service was fast, food was pretty good. Extensive drink list for those who want to drink something fancy.Took a star off because they the picture of the Lamb dish on their website was not what they actually served. (both had the same name labeled on it) They must have mislabeled it or it was an older picture.Either way we enjoyed the lamb! Just was expecting something different.

Love the new location. We often went to Blu when it was right in Yorkville. The new location is amazing, John Campbell who plays the piano on Sunday nights is a very talented musician with a wonderful personality. The staff here is all so very attentive from the manager to the server ( Brian) and right down to the young man that cleared the tables ( Jamal I believe was his name) the boss has assembled a great team . I will say that I did send my steak back because it had more cartilage than edible meat. The server quickly switched it out for a delicious lamb shank that I really enjoyed. The issue was dealt with perfectly and that’s all you can ask for. We will be back often.Michael.
