Ate outside, plenty of heaters, limited menu on Sundays, but everything delicious, excellent table service, can’t beat the ambiance: palm trees, moon light, fire pit seating nearby, gas lit. Very enjoyable evening.

We have gone every year for the last three years for New Years Eve. We booked in November to ensure we had a reservation. Every time before was an incredible buffet and was truly enjoyable. When we got to the restaurant this time there was no buffet. We asked our server about it and he told us that they also only found out a bit before the evening that it would be ala carte to their surprise. We had to wait quite a while for a server to come to our table. The last straw for us was that both the New Years menu and the regular menu have an automatic 20% gratuity added no matter the party size - wow absolutely ridiculous. We left and went to Red Lobster instead where we were treated very well and got to choose the gratuity instead of having it automatically applied - we tipped him $50 which was around 40%. Same tip we would have given at bluEmber. We try to visit bluEmber a couple times a year. We won’t be back again. Lost our business.
