This was our first night of a surprise birthday trip for my husband and I was very pleased with my choice of restaurant. The restaurant was very busy for a mid week night but the service was efficient and friendly in spite of being so crowded. Excellent cocktails and superb rib eye steak.

Unfortunately our visit was disappointing. The service wasn’t very attentive. Out steak was undercooked and the server wasn’t even apologetic. It was an expensive meal and the quality/service didn’t match the price. The scallop appetizer was excellent!

Everything in this restaurant is outstanding. The staff is really friendly and we were pleasantly surprised to be greeted by a Spanish speaker host. The food is well presented in generous portions and really good.

This spot was in a nice location, was nicely appointed, and the food and service were great. We all had focaccia sandwiches from the lunch menu. We also had sides of bread and fries, which were excellent.

The ambience is absolutely spectacular. All the attention detail is just stunning. Our table was cozy and had beautiful views of the restaurant. All of the waiters were kind and helpful. And our food was excellent and extremely speedy.

The food was very good, but not the sauces that accompanied the meat, which tasted like they were bought rather than homemade. The service was very friendly, but not personal, and we were served by four different people, which made everything seem too hectic.

We arrived prior to our reservation only to be told they were "overbooked ", we were then pushed into a corner by the front door where many people stood waiting to enter the restaurant. Very dissatisfied. Sad to be treated this way.

Good restaurant and service, I do think that either the tap water, or the bread should be free. If not, people just leave a smaller tip ! My lobster was a bit overcooked, so the meat was a bit dry and shrunken. Otherwise good. Nice to have the bottomless fries.

The fillet steak and mushroom sauce was perfectly cooked (medium rare) for all three of us who dined at Black and Blue. The waitress was very friendly, and helpful with the wine choice, allowing me to taste before selecting. While the restaurant was busy, we did not have to wait very long for our meals, and it wasn't too noisy either. The restaurant decor is lovely. I also order meals from the restaurant, which serviced The Pavilions/Toren Amsterdam, and those meals were just as delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.

THE FOOD WAS GOOD, LOVE THE EGGPLANT SOUP AND I DONT EVEN LIKE EGGPLAN IT WAS THAT GOOD. THE STEAKS WERE REALLY GOOD AND THE PRESENTATION ALSO. BUT THE SERVICE WAS REALLY BAD WE HAD TO CALL TO GET THE PLATES TAKEN, AND GET NEW DRINKS, WE WANTED TO HAVE DESSERT AND MORE DRINKS BUT IT WAS HARD TO ORDER DUE TO THE LACK OF SERVICE.

Service attention could have been better As not once did waiter come by to check on how we were doing and if we needed anything Didn’t even ask if wanted plain or sparkling water.. For this caliber of food I would have expected more attentive service
