"Went here for a double date a few weeks back. A friend at the table was having issues finding a plate she wanted. When she asked for a pasta plate with an order of chicken ON THE SIDE, it was flat out refused. Everything was prepared the true Italian way . I payed for my appetizer and we left. I do not belive this food is cooked on premises; it is made elsewhere (the other restaurant) and brought in. This is why they can not simply add a chicken breast on the side.What really amazes me is the audacity the owner has to be combative and criticize a factual review. She then took the time to try to shame my friend who wrote a truthful review not once but twice by editing her response a week later after she sat there googling him. This is shameful for the owner and her staff. I do not know where these 5 star reviews talking about service come from because the woman was rude, pushy and arrogant as an angry boar.Hint for the staff: If a customer asks what a plate is prepared like, do not tell them to google it as your first answer. Response This is a case of bad communication turned worse. At no point did we want that. She simply asked for chicken of any kind to be added to the dish. When the waitress said no, we asked if we could pay for just a piece of fried chicken to be eaten with it. Flat out refused.There is no hate involved in this post. I liked my appetizer. I disliked the way the waitress was pushy and kinda rude. My friend chose to write a review at the time. I did not. Someone responded day of. Some one then chose to google him and change the review response a week later? Very unprofessional, rude, and uncalled for.My review is again a service review on the first issue in the resturant, and now this googling habit.Good appetizer, bad manners."

"5 stars in every category all around!!!!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We’re a film crew of 20 people who are on location and (for many) far away from home pulling 17 hour consecutive days on a razor tight schedule that is constantly changing and must happen within a budget. The timing, accuracy, labels, flavor, freshness, and cost of our meals are of the utmost importance to a good shoot. Missing the mark is not an option and Giovanni slammed it out of the park today!! The service was like we were family, food like we were in Italy, and the professionalism of his staff and their courtesy is truly remarkable. Our crew is not only fed and satisfied, but noticeably happy. Best Mozzarella I’ve ever had in my life, as well. Thank you Giovanni for taking care of our crew today!!!!!!!! We’ll be back!!!!!!"

"**Tuna and Salmon Tartar (2/5):** While beautifully presented, the seasoning was lacking, and the freshness was not quite there. The chips were somewhat soggy, which took away from the enjoyment of the dish. It was decent but not particularly memorable. **Octopus (5/5):** Cooked and seasoned to perfection, this dish came with a delicious sauce that added a creamy, savory finish. Highly recommended! **Ribeye (4/5):** Cooked perfectly to medium rare, but the seasoning was uneven. A quick sprinkle with salt would easily fix this. **Rack of Lamb (2/5):** It had great flavor, but it was unfortunately undercooked and too rare. It definitely needed more sauce, as some pieces were lacking in it, making it difficult to enjoy. **Seafood Risotto (10/5):** No, that’s not a mistake! This is by far one of the best risottos we've ever tasted, and we will definitely return for it. The only minor issue was that many of the meats from the mussels and clams fell out, leaving mostly shells. Nonetheless, I highly recommend it—you won’t regret trying it! **Tuna Florentina (1/5):** This was definitely one of our least favorite dishes. The tuna lacked flavor, and the orecchiette was inconsistently cooked, with some pieces soft and others hard. I wouldn't recommend this one. **Linguine Carbonara (3.75/5):** Rich, creamy, and well-seasoned. While it didn't blow us away, it was still a solid choice and you can't go wrong with it. **Soft Shell Crab Pasta (4/5):** This was a fun and delicious dish, with the soft shell crab providing a nice contrast in flavor and texture. Quite good! Overall, while the experience was enjoyable, it wasn’t without its flaws. The location and service were wonderful, but the food has room for improvement. On a positive note, everything came out quickly and together. Blue has great potential, and I have no doubt they will continue to evolve and enhance their offerings. I hope that next time I can give them the five stars I believe they are capable of achieving! Thank you for reading, and best of luck to them!"

"What a wonderful treasure in the heart of Bayonne! The service was great, staff was attentive and accommodating. The food was delicious and most important reasonably priced. But my favorite part is the entertainment! Music was great! I'm a former 18 year resident of Bayonne. Wanting to gather with friends I met up with 5 of them at Mezcal on the recommendation of another Bayonne resident and I'm really glad we did! Absolutely loved this place on a Friday night!!! Highly recommend it!!"

"I used to enjoy this restaurant, but now it's awful. I'm not sure if they have new management or new chefs. The sausage and paprika dish I ordered was poorly prepared and not grilled. The meatball parmigiana had only a small amount of Parmesan cheese, which seemed like they were cutting costs. The penne alla vodka was decent, but I wouldn't risk ordering any more sandwiches from here. I had tried their pizza once before and didn't like it, especially when there are so many other great pizza places in Bayonne. On top of all this, my last order was delivered very late. It's safe to say I won't be ordering from here again."
