Holly Blue

My father threw me an awesome 30th birthday party at Holly Blue for myself and 40 of my friends. Haytham was a great event planner and helped immensely with all the details. We used a large portion of the outside seating area, and it worked perfectly. The foods and cocktails were amazing, and the staff always made sure everyone had a drink. Would definitely recommend Holly Blue for any events!

We had a reservation for 6:30PM and were promptly sitted. The place was quite empty at this time, so it's a good time to come if you want a last-minute dinner or have no reservations :) Our waitress was nice and recommended us the Brussell sprouts, which were indeed to kill for. I also liked the little QR code on my cocktail, I won't spoil the surprise of what it points to, but it adds to the experience. The place is very well decorated, and the music was nice. They had a DJ playing which brought a lively vibe; the music was not too loud, which I really appreciated. Restaurants tend to push the volume up when they have live music, preventing guests to hear each other. Service was friendly and fast. We had the risotto, which, while not bad, lacked a bit of truffle flavor. That's not unusual for black truffles, but perhaps some truffle oil could help. Overall we had a great evening. It's a place where you can dress up, if you are in the mood, go for it! :)

A little good place could've been... but somebody decided to change the menu! The new menu is terrible, very limited with very few choices and they got rid of the octopus, which was the main reason why I came here in the first place! Update: I had the miso glazed Sea bass and it was excellent! don't listen to the haters that tell you the fish can only be paired with white wine, take a look at the picture of the one we had which goes really well with the fish. The service was also very good! even though, they got rid of my favorite octopus dish, this place is still very good. I highly recommend it!
