   This was a very disappointing visit. The food was very bland - completely under seasoned. Our waiter was very scarce, never checked on us, and couldn’t keep a water glass filled. At one point someone who appeared to be the manager came out and fawned over a couple of tables and sent our waiter running errands for her - all while other tables were neglected. It took forever to get our check. Overall - bland food and bad service.

   We’ve dined here at Blade several times now and the food, service and ambience is always wonderful. One of our favorites is the grilled octopus but all the offerings are delicious. My wife especially enjoys the rigatoni with sausage and mushrooms pasta. It tastes even better with some shrimp added in! The service is also always friendly and attentive but not intrusive. We always enjoy our experience at Blade 1936!

   It was GREAT!! Our waiter, Shawn, was so nice - friendly and very helpful with the menu. The Lisa Bella cocktail - A++! Delicious! We had the Ravioli Di Carne Salsa Di Formaggi, Rigatoni Con Salsiccia E Funghi, and Scaloppine Di Vitello ai Funghi (veal). The pasta was cooked fresh and the sauces were amazing. The veal was so tender! Veggies were carrots and string beans. I usually do not like cooked carrots - but these were cooked perfectly with a little snap still in them. I did’t care for the string beans. At the end, the brought out a slice of Tirana for my daughter’s birthday. The dinners were so big, 1 slice was more than enough for the 4 of us - we were stuffed! Can’t wait to come back to visit Oceanside.

   Gets very loud inside but we were able to get a seat in the tent outside and it was nice. Wednesday night is a screaming deal. Wife is pregnant so I had to drink the whole bottle! Sides were boring. Potatoes are unhealthy and trite. How about some yam options or celery root etc for a starch? Salmon tastes amazing though. Great staff here.

   The ambience and atmosphere was really something! Have no trouble finding parking and even though they were packed, they didn’t have to wait too long. The food and the drinks were amazing! Definitely would recommend and definitely will be coming back!

   Our first visit to Blade. We ordered the truffle pizza as an appetizer and that was delicious! For entrees we ordered the Pappardelle Ai Funghi E Olio Tartufato and the Spaghetti Ai Frutti Di Mare. Both dishes were fantastic. Service was excellent. Already looking forward to our next visit!
