Reviews
The food itself, however, is fairly average. After multiple courses, none stood out in particular. The dry-aged T-bone steak was especially underwhelming, lacking depth of flavor and slightly overcooked, resulting in a tougher texture. The plates used to serve the steak also felt impractical, as they cooled too quickly and were not ideal for maintaining temperature. In comparison, the ribeye was noticeably better, with more consistent execution and a stronger sense of value.
If the visit is primarily for the atmosphere, the restaurant is worth considering. If the focus is on the food alone, the experience may vary depending on personal taste.
We ordered a mix of dishes and every single one was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. The oysters were incredibly fresh, the burrata with heirloom tomatoes was bright and delicious, and the toro/uni bites with caviar were a true standout. Our entrées—from the seafood to the steak—were cooked perfectly and tasted even better than they looked.
Service was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. For a restaurant this close to the airport, the atmosphere is surprisingly upscale and relaxing—perfect for a calm meal before flying out.
Whether you’re staying nearby or just want a great dining experience before heading to LGA, Blu Ember is absolutely worth it. I’d come back even if I wasn’t flying.
I’m not saying the steak wasn’t good—it was, and probably better than most out-of-state dry-aged steaks—but there are so many better steak options in NYC that if steak is the only thing you’re craving, I wouldn’t come here for that, especially since the prices are on par with top steakhouses.
The sushi is top quality. As a sushi lover, I can say it’s definitely fresh. Nothing too fancy—just good, plain sushi, which can be the best. The Italian seafood dish was phenomenal; the sauce wasn’t too sweet or too sour, but perfectly balanced for a tomato base. The seafood wasn’t overcooked or rubbery—it was soft and tender. The French onion soup was very “cheesy” but in a good way. The broth wasn’t too salty and felt like it was shimmer for a while to be flavorful, the only complaint that I had with the soup was that bread in the soup was way too large for the soup because it made it very difficult “spoon” the soup.
We finished dinner with dessert, and the only one I’d truly recommend is the chocolate cake. If you’re into chocolate, it’s perfect—not too sweet. It’s actually a lava cake. I’d definitely pass on the mocha special; it wasn’t bad, just nothing special for the price.
This place is a bit pricey, so be prepared, but we had a great time. The atmosphere was quiet, and the service was top-notch as expected—a perfect ending to our Black Friday. We’re definitely coming back, but maybe for lunch to try some of the lunch dishes.
We definitely will not be back. Seems like servers are not professional trained to serve and does not even stop by to check on their guests. Has no idea that food is missing or still have not arrived yet. Horrible dining experience. This is why we question the ratings on this restaurant. Be honest with your reviews. We frequent so many restaurants and this is the worse service and the quality of food is horrible. Even our ice cream was melting when they brought it out. Why was it sitting there for so long?! Do better, please.
