    In short, this was our first experience here and it was simply perfect. My wife was having her birthday with family and everyone loved it. Steak, pasta, fish, bread and bone marrow were perfect. Drinks were spot on and wine was something we’re going to look for. Daxton was the best and highly attentive. We recommend this place with 5 stars!

    The place was very loud for a sit-down restaurant, but Angela, our server, was excellent. The taco appetizer, salmon, and jambalaya were delicious, but the french dip sandwich was bland. Overall, I would recommend dining hear.

    Had a wonderful experience. Went to Copper Blues for dinner since it provided VIP reserved seating at Stand Up Live. Server was amazing. She kept up with our drinks, and made sure to stop by and check in to make sure we had everything we needed. We ate appetizers only. The Nachos were delicious and big. Pretzels were fresh and paired perfectly with the cheese dip. Fries were cooked perfectly. Atmosphere is amazing. Have nothing negative to say and will most definitely be back.
