Reviewed 6 November 2023

I dined @ Bluefin a few years ago solo and was quite pleased (and reviewed as such) so was excited to take my family this time when back in the area- there are limited options, especially in November and we were staying 5 minues away...We reviewed the menu prior to making a reservation- several in my family have allergies and/or vegetarian preferences, so we often take a look at options in advance before deciding where to go... we made a Friday night reservation a week in advance as we were pleased with the menu When we arrived we were given an "alternate menu" with only three entree options and told there was a "private event upstairs" and thus a very limited menu overall- this would have been very good to know in advance (whether in direct response to a reservation, on their website of even Facebook) as we would have simply eaten elsewhere We ended up staying and made the best of it. None of us were able to order what we came for, and one of us got the seafood pasta with no seafood and was still charged $37 for the noodles (we were told they "gave her extra noodles") We are flexible and reasonable, but left very disappointedMore

We had reservations and we were seated in the back room. It was super noisy and we couldn’t even hear each other talk. Was the worst area in the place. Food was ok but it was better a couple years ago.

This popular restaurant is worth a night-out. The walleye with mashed potatoes was excellent. We finished the meal with a freshly made chocolate chip cookie with ice cream - oh my so good! Thank you Pat for taking care of us for the evening. She...was so busy with her tables along with a group of 14 ladies. But, she always returned to assist us with a smile!More

Came for dinner one night of our stay at Bluefin Bay. We ordered cheese curds (not the best cheese curds I’ve ever had), and soup (had lots of fresh herbs in it that were very sharp and hard to eat) to start. Our entrees were...the beef and brie sandwich (which was SPICY) and fresh fish. Both were good. I got a seasonal lemonade to drink and my husband got beers. We definitely got a TON of food so it was worth the price. The staff seemed newer and timid but did a fine job. A nice relaxing dinner.More

Excellent meal. My dining companion and I both had the ribeye steak. It was prepared perfectly and the side dishes were delicious. We also enjoyed salads and a nice bottle of Cabaret Sauvignon. The service was perfect. Attentive but not overly so. The view of...Lake Superior was beautiful. Great place. We’ll be back!More

I ordered the special for the night. Fresh group caught out of Lake Superior….that’s what the waiter said. Unfortunately the serving was very small and the potatoes and mixed vegetables were not hot……it was very expensive for the special and I was disappointed.

Ate dinner here twice while staying at the Bluefin. The walleye entree is great - recommend the mashed potatoes. Nice wine/beer/cocktail selection. Only thing not great was the edamame hummus was lack luster. Otherwise good.

We have been coming to this restaurant for the past 12 years and the combination of food and service has always been good, even during Covid. This last time it was the last straw for me. The food was bland and expensive and the service...was careless. They now have minneapolis prices without the food and service quality. I order poultry and more than half of it was undercooked, when I said something they offered me to bring a new plate and I was not in the mood. Normally, in a good restaurant when this happens, the place either takes the plate out of the check or offers a free dessert, in this case nothing was offered, as always, it is on the small details that have big impacts. I cannot recommend this restaurant any more.More
