What People Are Saying About Blair's Restaurant

The Scene – Orange and red tones warm the casual front bar area and the more refined main dining room. Stretched mirrors and black picture frames minus the artwork add curious nuances to the decorating scheme. Cosmopolitan Eastsiders outnumber scruffier locals in Von Dutch caps. Earnest servers express wine-list knowledge but lack fine-dining finesse, evidenced by timing missteps and forgotten requests. – – The Food – Chef Marshall Blair earned his gills at L.A.'s seafood emporium Water Grill, so it's not surprising that the fish dishes are enjoyable, but the hearty…

The food was great. The service was below average

by CSMobileUser

The food was great. I had the ribs. They were tender and melt in my mouth like butter. The waitress was not helpfull i had to rely on the busboy which by the way he should have been the waiter. I'll probably go back again and its just because the food was great

Oh, it's so good

by ponysea123

Like the poster below, I've never had a bad meal here. Romantic dinner with my husband, check. Great place to take friends from out of town, check. Brunch spot where my toddler is happy as a clam, check. Love it. The tuna tartare is divine, and the trout with ginger broth is delicious. Everyone in the dining room looks happy and relaxed. I love this place.

  • Pros: food, wine list, service.
  • Cons: can get a tad pricey...

Never had a bad meal here

by chimmychimmycocoapops

Upscale New American dining that is never pretentious or snooty. Now that they've expanded the dining room, it's much more romantic and less hectic. I've had the short ribs, lamb chops, pork chop, and halibut here. All were fantastic. Great beer and wine selection. Never a scene.

  • Pros: Unpretentious upscale dining.Great food.

The Details on Blair's Restaurant

Where to Sit:

Avoid table seven in the main dining room--it sometimes catches condensation drips from the air-conditioner above.

What to Drink:

The small boutique-label wine list is highlighted by delicious Altamura sangiovese from Napa Valley. Non-drinkers can choose from French-pressed dessert teas.

Know Before You Go:

Reservations go fast--particularly on weekends--but a few tables are reserved for walk-ins. Otherwise, the bar offers full menu service.
