The food was NOT worth the price. We ordered the oysters to start. They were probably the best dish of the whole night. We then ordered tuna tartare. It looked like they gave a lot of tuna but turned out that half of it was just pickled ginger. They only put the sauce at the bottom so the tuna didn’t have a ton of flavor and wasn’t a crazy nice cut anyways.
For our main dishes, we ordered the ribeye and the snow crab. The snow crab had an upcharge for the lobster mac and cheese side. The rib eye was a bit bland and overdone. For advertising broiling their steaks, the top was not very crispy. The flavor lacked. They advertise having their own house seasoning but I tasted only a hint of salt. We asked for medium rare and it came out medium to medium-well. The crab also was completely flavorless. I mean incredibly flavorless. On top of that, they provided only butter (which didn’t even have the flavor of butter so I have no idea what it actually was) and a lemon. The lemon definitely helped. They also pre cracked the legs which was nice, though not so helpful when there is no flavor to be tasted. Very very disappointed in the main dishes – especially for their price. The lobster mac and cheese was just average. Nothing fancy. Then we ordered desert and got the creme brulee – this was really burnt and the sugar wasn’t fully flamed still… I was eating chunks of sugar which was not enjoyable. It came with a rosemary cookie which was hard as a rock as well.

We had an older woman as our main waitress who was VERY New England. If you aren’t familiar with New England culture, you might definitely think she was rude. I think it was just the culture though at a nice restaurant like this, I would expect a bit more filter there.

While the overall experience was nice, the food was so overpriced for its quality and I am so deeply disappointed. I took my boyfriend there for his birthday. For a bill almost $300, I would hope the food was higher quality and had true flavor to it.

I went to Black and Blue with my kids on Sunday. The food was incredible! I am not a seafood girl but was eating lobsters mac and cheese and fried calamari, it was delicious!! Everyone was so happy with their food. The wait staff were all excellent. Very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The manager also checked in to make sure we were all happy with our food. The kitchen was very clean and staff back there was constantly working. I can’t say enough about this restaurant. I am so impressed. I highly recommend bringing your family here! Even looks like a great spot for date night! My compliments to the Chef!!

A new restaurant in Wellesley town. The food is good as expected, the decorations are aesthetic. The price is a little bit high. It is a good place for friends or families to gather here。

Black and Blue is a handsome new restaurant with high ceilings, good lighting and lots of comfortable seating. We had an early reservation and the place was already hopping.

Menu is classic steakhouse and we found execution was very high quality. An entree of steak Oscar was properly seasoned and cooked exactly to order. As the filets are small it’s a dish easy to overcook but they were tender and juicy at medium rare. Scallops entree also came out just right, four big fat scallops over crab asparagus risotto. Very good. A side of hash browns was three big slabs of mashed potato coated and fried. It’s classic steakhouse to have large sides.

Pricing is in line with competitors. Service was friendly and professional, and the orders came out promptly from the big kitchen visible at the back of the restaurant.

There are vegetarian options, and okay for gluten free, too. Children would be fine and the room is definitely handicap accessible.
Parking is on the street with a big public lot nearby, too.

Our dining experience at Blue and Black left much to be desired. Upon arrival, we waited over 20 minutes for our table despite the restaurant being only half full, which set an underwhelming tone for the evening.
The food, unfortunately, did not redeem the experience. The steak tartare arrived pre-made and overly saturated in sauce, compromising its freshness. We ordered a Caesar salad with white anchovies, but it was served with red anchovies and lacked flavor. My medium-rare ribeye was cooked nearly to well-done, missing the mark on preparation. My wife’s she-crab soup was unexpectedly sweet, resembling a dessert more than a savory dish, and we left most of it untouched. Regrettably, our waiter did not acknowledge this or inquire about our satisfaction.
On a positive note, the oysters were satisfactory, and the sorbet stood out as the highlight of the meal, though it seemed likely sourced externally.
At over $150 per person, the value did not match the quality of the experience. We had hoped for a memorable meal, but given the inconsistencies in service and food, we recommend exploring other dining options.
Needless to say, we won’t be back..

Honestly it’s one of the best, if not THE BEST dining experience I’ve had at that price point. Have I had better, yes…..did I pay a LOT more for it……yes. My wife and I had 3 martinis each and the drinks were literally perfect. I ordered the bone in ribeye and it again was perfect. The service was incredible. Dinner for two came to $380 with tip and that was with 6 drinks. I highly, HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. It was my wife’s birthday and she was very happy.

There isn’t one thing that I can say went wrong at this restaurant. The service was great, my party enjoyed everything ordered, and we were given a private room. I mixed two meals together for my entree, the red snapper with truffle and sweet potato mash which I had the chef pair with a 5oz filet. For starters we had shrimp cocktail, octopus, crab and lobster cheese dip with pita chips, crab cakes and calamari. Then a round of crab and clam chowder, those two were delicious. For entrees we ordered scallops, lobster, Bass, and Filet, with mashed potatoes, creamy spinach, sauteed mushrooms, creamy sweet corn, and truffle hash browns. Deserts were, lava cake and vanilla ice cream, key lime pie, cheesecake, and chocolate cake. Everything came out perfect tonight.

Got a reservation for 8 and then decided to change up the plans. Called to see if there was any way to get a table (at 6 on a Saturday night) and the Host said we could not have a dining table but they would hold a table in lounge for us and we took it. This restaurant is beautiful. The hostess was so kind and knew who we were when we walked in. We were celebrating an anniversary and that was acknowledged by the hostess, and multiple servers. They even put a cut little card on the table saying Happy Anniversary. I thought this was really cute and I’ve never seen that done at a restaurant before. We both got the filet mignon, cooked med well and mid-well and both steaks were cooked to perfect. Sides were French fries (so good) and mashed potatoes (also good I don’t even like mashed potatoes). The bread was so good and I got the sweet and spicy margarita, which was amazing. Vanilla bean creme brulee dessert – loved! Can’t wait to go back and try something else.
