   My husband and I came here for a celebratory lunch. The food was overall great, though my husband’s linguini and clams was a little dry. The pasta was perfectly cooked al dente though. The salmon Florentine was delicious though the spinach was too rich to eat more than a couple bites. The service was outstanding. We both enjoyed the clam chowder and considered it among the best we’ve tasted in the past decade. Unfortunately, we both developed GI symptoms later in the day. We were hoping that we’d found a new fave, but are reluctant to return due to illness.

   Oysters were very good. The coating on a lot of the fried seafood is oddly semi sweet, mixed reviews from the table on it, but was all properly cooked, crispy and fresh

   Amazing dinner! We have been wanting to try Blue Island Oyster Bar for a long time and this evening did not disappoint! The calamari was 10/10!

   We came for restaurant week and it was great. We saved quite a bit by ordering the pre fix menu. Scott was our server and he was delightful. They have many special menus throughout the week. We will be back.

   If you’re looking for a good seafood joint this would work. The service was excellent, the prices were a bit high. If you want to hear or be heard, this isn’t the place.

   I made the mistake of going during Denver Restaurant Week. I made a reservation not knowing it was DRW, but my daughter was home from college, and we wanted to go here. I like this restaurant, and usually have a great experience, but on this occasion I felt rushed through the meal. At one point, we had no room on our tiny 2-top because they brought the oysters at the same time as the first course. Then, while we were still enjoying the oysters, the main dishes arrived. Could they have made it any more obvious that they were trying to turn the table?! Lesson learned - I’ll avoid BIOB during “restaurant week”.

    Loyalty customer. Restaurant week special. Apps very good(Calamari & Smoked Trout). Desserts were good but sample size. New England Lobster Roil was over dressed with Mayo & celery. Lettuce filled the small roll…minimal lobster. Lobster was minced not in chunks…so hardly any flavor . My favorite slaw was notably lacking the tarragon and no flavor. Come here frequently for the lobster roll…even take out & this by far was not up to their standard quality. We went early so that’s not an excuse for poor quality food. Service is always great. Very dissatisfied for quality and value.

Your insights are invaluable in helping us identify areas for improvement, so please reach out to us at sean[at]shuckinggoodhospitality. com with more details about your experience.
