DONT EAT AT Blue Cactus Grill! We ordered waffle fries yesterday and found a fried CHICKEN HEAD in it! The piece was slick and stretchy with what is clearly an eye, beak, and even an esophagus (on the back). I found it at night so I called back the next day after work. The manager said he'd give me a refund and thanked me for being calm about it. I was going to leave this alone until a few hours later I get a call back from the owner who starts skeptically questioning me asking why I waited to call it in immediately and commenting about how it was sitting in the fridge for a few hours. I ask if I'll still be getting a refund (for a $20 order mind you) she says not until she reaches out to their supplier to see if this was possible and will let me know! Instead of apologizing and just covering the check I had to dig it out the trash to send a picture which at that point I was told I'd get a refund. I can understand someone being confused when hearing this but to question your customer and tell them you have to reach out to the supplier before refunding $20 is ridiculous and TERRIBLE customer service. Not like the supplier is going to happily take the blame so just take care of...

If you're visiting Norwalk, this restaurant is worth lunching at. I ordered the Santa Fe sandwich, and it was the best sandwich I've had in years. (I had it on rye instead of the normal brioche-style bun it comes on.) The chipotle mayo was delicious and not overwhelming and the cutlet wasn't dry or oily.

It came with a side of coleslaw that was very unique! It was creamless and very earthy. By itself, it wasn't the best, but having it in the same bite as one of their sandwiches does the trick! It adds levels of flavor and makes their heavy sandwiches much lighter, to get you through the experience of enjoying every delicious bite without feeling too full!

I also tried the Mexican-style jalapeño hot sauce and the Southern-style vinaigrette. The jalapeño sauce was delicious and flavorful, though a bit spicy to the extent that it spoke over the sandwich's great flavor. I wasn't a fan of the Southern-style vinegar base, but with the right sandwich, it would be great.

Super...

my boyfriend and I were headed to new York and have a tradition to find little hole in the wall restaurants to stop at for every trip. We found this gem and let me tell you we weren't disappointed. Great place to stop to grab a great wrap, burger, salad, etc. All of the food is made with fresh and real ingredients and the service is 110% exceptional. it's hard to find a place that has it all, but the blue cactus has it all!!!!! Food was delish and even grabbed one of their two hommade hot sauces on the way home. (cool side note, you can buy the hot sauce the first time at a set rate and come back if you love it to get it discounted for a refill.) in a hurry? no worries, this small resturant has a free downloadable app so you can order and pick up (or deliver) for any time crunch! can not wait to visit again, have saved this place to ensure we go back and visit again soon. thank you all the staff from...

All I can say is WOW!! Ive had plenty of steak and cheese subs before but never like this. I had the Chubby Douglas which includes horse radish sauce, French fries (yes on the sandwich) and gravy. I contemplated giving up on trying to finish this monster sub in one sitting but I pressed on and completed my task. My coworker ordered the Triple threat (spicy) and he too had a hard time finishing the sub. The poor onion rings were delicious but those we just couldnt finish because our bellies just didn't have enough space left. So long story short if you're hungry and want something different from the normal steak and cheese (but I'll assume theirs is spectacular also) then definitely give Blue Cactus a shot. It may become your favorite place for lunch. It would probably take a long time to try one of everything on the menu also if someones up for that challenge.

This was our first time here. I decided to take my kids for burgers after walking around SoNo Arts mall for a while. What a nice surprise! The staff at the counter was so incredibly nice and friendly! We'll definitely be back! Awesome food! When we first walked in, we were greeted and that immediately made us feel at home. She brought over homemade potato chips while we waited for our food. She convinced us to enjoy the hot food there instead of taking it to go. I'm really glad we did. I had the amazing garlic parmesan fries. These are fries with real parmesan and fresh garlic on them. Not the powdered junk you get at the movies. My Brooklyn burger was huge and amazing. I loved the cactus slaw. My son loved his cheddar fries and patty melt. We'll swing through SoNo now often just for this spot.

Ok I am a big fan of BCG and so is my son but we usually hit the other location as its closer. Happened to be in the area and decided to stop by the original to get a guaranteed fire lunch. Well idk if it was just an off day or the pandemic has had them slammed or what but this was a big letdown. Not only did our cheesesteaks taste off everything seemed hurried and it was reflecting in the food. The onion rings which are usually fire here were greasy w/no real crisp and the cilantro slaw man I couldnt tell if there wasnt any jalapeno or if it was lacking cilantro but overall it was pretty bland compared to how I've had it before. The fries weren't overly seasoned so they didnt slap me w/salt so points for that. Still feel like this is one of the best cheesesteak spots in the state.
