My husband and I just went to Bluehour for the first time. Right off the bat, we had some misgivings. They had a very extensive wine list, but there were many bottles marked as ""Sold Out"". When we reailzed that this was included almost all bottles below $100, we were a little leary. We finally settled on their only Austrailian wine, which took them 15 minutes to find in the back. Our waiter apologized for the wait, but you can't help hearing ominous horns at that point. From there, we were very pleased with the appetizers. My husband had the salmon tartar, while I had the gnocchi with truffle oil, and both were excellent. We were beginning to think that the wine list was an anomoly and looked forward to the rest of the meal. For the main course, my husband had a very poor steak dish, while I had a barely passable veal chop. Considering they each cost over $40 each, we were expecting much better quality. The desserts were passable, with a servicable chocolate cake and peach galotte. The service overall was not very attentive, and we generally poured our own wine. The table next to us waited 10 minutes after being seated before they went to the maitre d station to get someone to take their drink order. With the bill, we learned that the ""free"" valet parking noted on this site was not free after all. They just stuck the $6 on the bill. Overall, not a great experience, and it is highly unlikely that we will ever go back.
Pros: Appetizers, location, nice ambiance
Cons: Main courses, price, wine list
