Noticed the positive reviews and great looking menu and we decided to take a chance a try out the Blue Marble Restaurant and we were so pleased with our experience and we will definitely return and we definitely recommend to others. Our server was attentive and friendly without being overly bothersome as can sometimes happen. We were seated at a lovely booth and it was comfortable and roomy. Mussels for appetizers were delicious And the broth was incredibly tasty. The ribeye & the pickerel for the entrees were excellent as well as accompanying sides of potatoes and veggies. The entrees came piping hot which is rare and the portion size was generous as each of us left with doggie bags Dessert of crème brûlée & lemon tart made a perfect end to the evening. Each bite was delicious.
