Family Meal at Blue Hill

An amazing journey through the culinary mind of a great chef! We were whisked away on the flavor express! The food was truly impressive! I still do not know how peas can taste that good! Everything was top notch, even the old fashioned! The ambiance matches the name, it has the feel of joining a family table run by your old friends! Truly impressive!

We have not been back for years. We tried the family style since this is the only option. The dishes are in the right size for 2 of us. But every dish is on the heavy taste side. I though we would get some seafood dishes but we did not. The dishes that we had are on salty side but the sever was willing to change it for us. Ideally the taste should gradually become heavier but that is the case. The sever provided excellent service. I would say I enjoyed the service than the food. The dessert is bad. Not creative at all. Chain restaurant can do the same dessert or better. To pay $100 per person I hope they can offer more since every table is having the same dish on the same night. We are disappointed!

It’s a good place, however I found the service to be sluggish. The food was fresh but the vegetables surprisingly had little taste. The wine list is extensive and the ambiance is laid back. Surprisingly I was not entirely enamored with the food. The fare is light and menus are made based on ingredients from their nearby farm, but it was simply not really that flavorful. Preparations were well done and portions were large.

I am a vegetarian and so I selected their vegetarian menu and I was blown away. All of the fruits and vegetables were so fresh it was like I had never tasted them before. Their service was also incredible. They accommodated every allergy, they allowed us to order drinks off menu, and they even gave us a menu to take home. We went to celebrate our wedding anniversary and they surprised us with a delicious chocolate cake and gave us a candle. I can’t wait to come back! (Shout out to our amazing server Justin)

We simply loved it Disclaimer - we've sat at the bar with a super friendly and professional bartender named Antanas who made the entire evening so much more entertaining ? If you're a big meat lover and your dinner has to be centered around a big piece of steak or poultry, then go someplace else. However, if you appreciate vegetables, their freshness and would like to experience them in new amazing delicious ways - do not miss out on Blue Hill! You're being served a 4 course meal which is imaginative and tastes amazing from start to finish. Of course, some dishes are better than others but they were all excellent. Compared to other fine dining, it feels like the portions are slightly larger and the cost more reasonable. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary so going for a nice piece of steak (that would have cost us half) wouldn't have been as special as visiting Blue Hill. Compliments to the chefs, cooks, waiters and our bartender - they were all extraordinary! Would definitely love to come back and try their farm-to-table menu in a different season...

Wonderful birthday meal at Blue Hill / Family table. Attentive staff and very accommodating of gluten allergy. Lots of delicious fresh vegetables across all courses - the salad and dessert were our favorite. Only thing that was a tad off was the peach rx cocktail - tasted like watered down mescal. Overall lovely meal and want to head up to the farm upstate.

I have tried numerous Michelin star restaurants and set course haute cuisine in NYC, yet Blue Hill family meal was by far the best and exceeded my expectations. The appetizers were creative, making me curious with the pretty plating, while surprising me with completely different tastes at the same time in good ways. In the main dishes, the eggplant was superb – nothing close to anything I tasted before. The pork dish was just perfect, well-balanced with tender texture and very tasteful. We were served several dessert dishes as part of the family meal, which was nice, but I was initially not thrilled as I’m not a dessert person. Nevertheless, I emptied all the dessert dishes. They were so delicious, yet they were not that sweet. All the dishes are great, but I must say the wine pairing was on another level. I felt like I was journeying through exquisite wine countries like Champagne, Burgundy, and Napa. The head sommelier was super passionate and introduced me to his perfect wine selections. The ambiance was also great. All the restaurant employees were super friendly. They all made us feel very comfortable and helped us enjoy the food, wine, and ambiance. I will definitely come back again when I visit NYC next time. Thank you!

My party had a wonderful evening dining at Blue Hill, and I was excited to try the Family Meal as my prior dining experience was with the set tasting menu. Each course had a great selection of farm fresh produce, adequate portions, and light but comforting fare. We included the wine pairing and the taste and tale of each bottle were remarkable. Our servers were attentive and patient and the overall ambiance leaves us with a treasured memory of this meal.
