Burlington Restaurants

Great food and service. Highly recommended for an overall good dining experience

Memorable Christmas dinner outing. Adults and kids had fun

Went to black & blue on Christmas Eve…and WOW. Neither of us had ever been but the menu looked incredible so we made a res. When we turned the corner past the host desk, our jaws dropped. It’s absolutely stunning in there!! From the bar to the tables, the ambient lighting. I was already sold. We were sat in a more secluded area rather than the large dining room area which was so cozy and good for conversation. Our server(s), Kelvin & Iverson, were so sweet. Kelvin noticed our coats kind of folded next to us and offered to check them for us which was such a nice addition to the upscale vibe of the restaurant. Now the FOOOOD. We started with the tuna tartare which was so much larger of a portion than I personally expected! It had a ton of flavor - loaded with a bit of vinaigrette, pickled ginger, seaweed salad, avocado, and topped with sesame seeds. For dinner, I got the salmon entree which came with maple glazed Brussels sprouts and a celery soubise that was sweet and tangy. The salmon filet was cooked perfectly with a crispy outside and went so great with the sides it came with. My dinner guest got the 10oz filet mignon which is ala carte - we went for the shareable sides of mashed potatoes and brown butter asparagus! The filet came out sizzling on a metal platter that was placed on top of the wood plank that was brought out before hand. He had ordered it medium-rare and it came out GORGEOUS. Perfect. It was SO tender and so tasty even without an additional sauce that they offer. We were in heaven, pairing our meals with a cold Hendricks martini (me) and a glass of Tuscan red blend (him)! We were there celebrating his Christmas Eve Birthday, so they brought us out a complimentary slice of chocolate cake with a candle in it. We split a second glass of that red blend to go with the richness of the chocolate cake as a little night cap which was perfect. Thank you, again, to the staff of black & blue in Burlington for the incredible hospitality from start to finish!

Getting together with my family for the holiday, be quiet in the restaurant. I had a dirty bread and butter. plate that I had to ask the server to get me a new one which was kind of annoying to me since it was obvious that it was dirty so whoever set the table missed that service was OK. Thought I would’ve had quicker service just because there was nobody in the restaurant. But when I server was there, he was very nice. Overall, it was fine, but I think for the price and brand Tuscan Kitchen my expectations were higher. 

Incredible! This word sums up what you need to know. Incredible food, incredible service and incredible hospitality. We had dinner during a challenging time in our lives and the team couldn’t have been more kind. This is one of the best restaurants we have been to, with a large variety of delicious food. The staff was so hospitable, making sure everything was right for our family. We will be back and you should go and try them too. You will not be disappointed.
