Pros: Fantastic service, fresh seasonal menu
Cons: Pricey!
This is the second time I had dinner at Blue Hill. The waitress recommended the slice veal which both my wife and I ordered. It was full of sinew and grizzle. Both my wife and I mentioned to her that she should not recommend this item

Pros: Good service and presentation
Cons: Inedible food
Came here for a non-special occasion dinner, but the majority of those around us were there for birthdays or other special occasions. The food was AMAZING, and very accessible for the price point, meaning you didn't have to ask the waiter

Pros: incrediblly fesh ingredients, solid wine menu, not stuffy
Cons: can drain your wallet, but better value most
It is difficult to categorize this restaurant, because our dining experience in it was extremely mixed. The space is gorgeous, perfect for a quiet evening, although the tables are a little too closely spaced. The wine selection was very

I took my SO here for a birthday - service was lovely and the amuse bouches and vegetables were all clever and delicious. It's clear that the chef, Dan Barber takes a lot of care and effort into the food. Food was simple but

Pros: Delicious, fresh food
Cons: Not terribly inventive, prices are a complete rip-off
Went for dinner for a special occasion and had an unbelievable time. Didn't do the tasting menu, but really savored each course. They have a great selection of wine by the glass and make sure to save room for dessert. The service here

Excellent food. Excellent service. My husband and I went for our anniversary and I will never forget it. \r
The fresh local produce was the biggest draw. Our cold asparagus soup was a major highlight, as well as the chocolate bread pudding

I found out about this restuarant through a magazine article. When I got on CitySearch to read the reviews the only negative I saw was the portions. My conclusion is that if you enjoy great food and a great dining experience you will

One of the best dining experiences in New York. the ingredients and the melded flavors are first rate. The cozy feel of an old speakeasy, the flowers, and the very friendly as well as knowledgable wait staff are first rate. It is both

Fantastic food. Sublime quality of ingredients and magical (simple) preparations that equal NYC 4-stars restaurants. The chicken that we ate at Blue Hill was from heaven and maid the legendary Bresse chicken that we ate few months ago at

Pros: Fantastic food, sublime quality of ingredients and magical (simple) preparations

Just made my second visit to Blue Hill and it was simply amazing. Chef Dan Barber and his staff are master's of taking high quality ingredients and maximizing their potential without overcomplicating the food with smoke and mirrors.

Pros: Amazing food, comfortable room
Cons: Small (but still good) wine list, service can slip a little at times
We had a great table and accommodating waiter. Everything was good but nothing really grabs you, servings on the slightly small side and muted flavors. Cool room tho.

Pros: ambiance
A restaurant that doesn't try to do anything except serve great food with great service in a pleasant atmosphere. No gimmicks here -- the food speaks for itself in its freshness and preparation. The dining room is quietly elegant with no

I went a couple weeks ago with a dinner group. We each tried something different. The appetizers were good, I was told the crab salad was very refreshing. For an entree, their grass fed lamb almost melts in your mouth. As dessert I

Portions are miniature at this very pretty restaurant. Ambiance is nice, but don't come hungry. Pizza place down the street will fill you up afterwards.

This restaurant took our group by surprise. Each of us eats out many times during the week with weekends left for recreating the "best of" in our own kitchens. Tonight we found out why Joan Hamburg and Arthur Schwartz have mentioned this

My wife & I went here after getting a recommendation from a friend. We were both very pleased with our meals and the service was excellent. We'd recommend it to others.

Pros: Service
Cons: , very small portions
An oasis of refinement:
Food, though somewhat uneven, often reaches the pinnacles of "new American" fine cuisine - chef's passion (and kitchen's precise execution) is most evident in the fish dishes and soups. I have never better enjoyed

Pros: Inventive Cuisine, Delicate Preparations, Service, Atmosphere

I brought my vegetarian girlfriend here to celebrate our 1-year together. I called in advance to ensure that they could accomodate vegetarians. This helped, as our gracious server knew ahead of time that my girlfriend's needs & pointed

Pros: great food, great dessert
Cons: average space
Very romantic. Wait staff is unobtrusive, generous, and careful to make the experience a good one. Food is very good, but the menu doesn't change as often as it should, given the creativity. Highly recommend it for first or second dates.

Pros: romantic, excellent food, great neighborhood
We were served much too quickly. We had to return both entrees. One (the cod) was undercooked and the other (rib steak special) was overcooked (delivered medium when ordered rare). The appetizers were tasty but not exceptional. First

Pros: Moderate price
.... to see the incredibly small portions on my plate. I paid too much and got too little -- which is not acceptable in this economy. I got the $26 (or was it $28) hangar steak, and it weighed perhaps 6-8 oz. I will admit that the steak

Pros: sleek atmosphere
Cons: overpriced, small portions
We just ate at this restaurant last night and loved it. Our meals - fall mushrooms and the cod; crab lasagna and the lamb - were creative and delicious. The service couldn't have been better; our waitress was friendly and informed, and her

Pros: Quiet, Moderately Priced, Intimate
I came here without much of an appetite and left having eaten more than I imagined, just because the food was so good. In particular, the Crabmeat Lasagne was AMAZING. I recommend Blue Hill to anyone, the service was excellent as well.

The food was outstandingly prepared. I had a cod dish that was among the best fish dinners I've had in this city. The presentation was also excellent. The wine list was a bit limited to my taste, and could have been more moderately priced.
