Bleu Martini — Restaurant in Philadelphia

The website says #1 Upscale Lounge in Philadelphia. They need to take that LIE down! This is beyond bottom of the barrel. I attended for restaurant week with my significant other. I picked this place over another based off of a recommendation and I was entirely disappointed. To start by saying, they were clearly unprepared for restuarant week! If you can't take the heat, get the heck out the kitchen!! I guess their kitchen staff was overwhelmed by the volume of people?? Because it took HOURS for us to get our food. Our salads took 45 minutes to get to the table but, the killer was we ordered appetizers and got the salads first. After waiting that long for a bag tossed salad with wilted lettuce, it took another 30 minutes for 2 out of 4 appetizers to come out. Apparently they forgot to cook our other 2. Then another 35 minutes for our actual entrees. I got the "glazed" salmon and rice and it tasted like a fish tank. Absolutely bland and the rice was tasteless as well. My boyfriend got the pesto gnocchi and it was also bland. The cheesecake tasted like it was pre frozen then thawed out. Disgusting. Once the bouncer arrived and the DJ came, their alleged dress code went right out of the window. We saw people in hoodies and timberland boots, which was stated "not allowed". If everything else wasn't terrible enough, the women's restroom was absolutely shocking. Tons of cheap perfume lined up on the bathroom sink, along with hair glue bottles! It was absolute ratchetry!! I am a REAL reviewer. Thanks to all the misguided ones on here saying how nice this place was. They're...

If I could give less than 1 star I would. Poorly run business. Unethical business practices. Food is mediocre to say the least. The salmon was bland unseasoned and dry. The hot wings had nothing going for them as well. I ordered wings and shrimp cocktail which took over 45 minutes to arrive. Shrimp cocktail doesn't even have to be cooked so I don't know what the hold up was. I paid a cover charge to pay to have dinner. What a raquet. We had 2 beers a cocktail salmon wings and the shrimp we sent back. Our bill was $107. We complained about the wait and they basically could care less. I watched a young lady asked to give up her table while her and her friend was still using it after spending over $120 for new patrons that walked in. I was shocked after she stated they were not done and weren't leaving till they finished their drinks. A manager had security remove them. The ladies room is disgusting and there's only one stall. Not sure why the girl is sitting on a stool in this nasty bathroom with a tip jar. After $25 for parking $127 for a terrible meal including cover charge. This was by far thee worst experience I've had in Philadelphia. Needless to say I will never return. They need to be out...

My coworkersand myself were in town for a work trip. We came here to celebrate some co workers birthdays. It's happy hour, where was the happy? We were unsure if the place was even open. We go inside and we are the only people in the place, outside of those that worked there. The waitress was nice. We told her it was some folks birthday so she could see We were trying to have a good time and celebrate. We asked if the DJ could turn up the music, she asked someone and they said no. They don't turn up the music until 10p. We asked if we could sit in VIP. She asked, we were told no because the section was closed. We ordered drinks and some apps. My one coworkers ordered a drink because one of the ingredients was "smoke." She was told there is no smoke they just add jalapeños! So she got the drink anyway, there was only 2 jalapeños in it. She asked if she could have a few more, she was told no as they didn't have anymore. Another co worker ordered some wings, they just smelled like all hot sauce, no flavor. Even with all of our requests being denied we stayed to enjoy ourselves. As we left, which was like 2 hours later, only 2 more people came in. I would not...
