Bleu Martini

Happy hour was not happy.Meh, mediocre food and drinks.Hot wings were averageCrab cake sandwich was over cooked crab claw sandwich with hot fries.Drinks were weak!!!Sat at bar and the tip of 20+% was already added in.I guess this place should change their name to bleu martini and hookah.

$20 cover charge. I think its also a hookah spot. Seemed to be set up at every table. Our party ordered hookah and bottle service. The service was great. Not sure why there is a charge at the door for people doing bottle service.

This was a pretty neat spot in the city. I went on a Wednesday night with my girlfriend for hookah. The place was calm and clean, the waitress was nice, and the food was delicious.However some of the items were slightly overpriced and at the end there were some discrepancies on our bill, the waitress was nice about it and removed all the extra charges.Overall I had a pleasant experience and very delicious food.

Went for restaurant weekHere’s my review:Service- extremely slow and the waitress was very inattentive.She never came over to ask if we needed anything else or was everything okay.It was dead at 5 pm on a Friday night and it was so slow.The appetizers came out fast but the entree took forever even though it was dead.Food: some of it taste like it came straight out of a box and the rest of the food was bland.This is more of a night life spot- hip hop music being played.They automatically charge you 18% gratuity even the the service sucked.The most I would have paid is 15% for poor service

I have been coming to the Bleu Martini for years and it never disappoints!! I am from Baltimore and make the quick trip up to road for fun and an amazing time. The atmosphere is amazing, the food is wonderful, the drinks are nice and when its party time...its party time!! Very mature crowd and I always make a friend or two each time I go. If you want a nice place for evening cocktails during the week or a place to get down party, this is your place!! I highly highly reccomend The Bleu Martini!!

I left a part of my soul here after drinking the Long Island Ice tea! Found this spot after having dinner a few shops up and I’m happy we did! It’s pretty and clean, the drinks are perfect, D.J has an expansive music selection, sure to get you up and moving. Shoutout to Miss Naomi who tends the female restroom ❤️. It’s definitely a vibe and worth the visit!!!

Went here for restuarant week and my experience was overall eh. The food was not horrible but also not the best considering the price. Now I saw that they had hookah and a wide selection of drinks so it may be better for those things rather than the food. On the plus side, the waitress was nice and I liked the calm, cool atmosphere.

The drinks were good. I didn’t even order or try their food here at all. However the atmosphere here with the crowd was ok. I had a bad altercation with the bartenders then it turned into an argument for not giving me a drink or my money back. I order my drinks and paid them the money for the drink at the exact time when I asked for drinks. However I didn’t get the drink or my money back. I asked the bartender where were the drinks. He refused to make or give me a drink and or give me my money back. After that I let it go and just asked him for another drink so I gave him another 20 dollars to order another drink he said I don’t get a drink after I paid for it even though I never got the drinks that I sworn I paid for he didn’t want to give me my money back. I asked to speak to a manager he said I will not talk to a manager and refused to let me talk to a manager. After this night I left upset and arguing with my boyfriend about because he didn’t care or tried to help me. Never coming back here again.

Went a few days ago while visiting Philly with a friend, the vibe was relaxed and chill, the drinks were doing their thing and the hookah was very good . Excellent service 👏🏽

Not enough seats, I went on a Friday Night & sat at the bar. I got a lemon drop with all this ice in a square glass vs a martini glass. It was filled with ice, the worst lemon drop I ever had, bartender stood in her phone majority of the time, everyone said her drinks were watered down. Hookah tasted burnt, the hookah is terrible . It’s a nice clean bathroom and atmosphere though, nice vibe. The DJ played lots of back in the day music. I wouldn’t do hookah here or drink anything outside of wine, a shot, or champagne everything else is watered down. You can be dressed up cute or chill here

The service here is absolutely terrible. We had a reservation for 6 people and were sat at a table for 4. The host realized we werent going to fit once we sat down and moved us to a different table. We ordered and wait 1.5 hours for our food to come to the table. The waitress did not apologize for the wait. She did not introduce herself. She had no customer service skills at all. We would have not given her the 18% gratuity that is automatically added to all bills regardless of the size of your party. Our food turned out tasting fine but the wait ruined our night. Will not be visiting this place again or recommending it to anyone.

We came here for just drinks at the Marcato in Naples, FL. This place is VERY busy. I ordered their famous blue martini. It was absolutely delicious and very strong. I had to sip it slowly. They have a great menu and a variety of drinks. Im not surprised this place is always full. I took off one star because it is a super busy place, and the tables and chairs are too close together, theres not much room to move around.

Quick service at the bar which I really appreciate. Drinks were overpriced, not strong. However they played hip hop all night long.

Music was great and the space was nice. But the pizza was definitely something that was frozen from a grocery store. We didn’t eat it. The hookah was awful. I have smoked hookah for years and this was supposed to be a flavored one but it wasn’t. Plus it burned so fast we didn’t get to enjoy it. The only thing that was good was the drinks.

Very charming place for young urban adults..customer service needs work if theyre going to attract a more versatile audience..drinks were watered down but the atmosphere was energized

Came to Bleu Martini and have not been in years and never had an issue with getting a seat to smoke hookah and drink. How we, the manager said the seats were bottle service only then her bartenders said they would talk to her. She later said it was sold out. No one was in the seats and the ones who were 2/8 people bought bottles. After talking to her she later moved me and my friends to a seat after already spending over $250 which was a bottle cost and apologized because she knew it was all cap. Saying I didn’t know who the others were on the section which were regular people who bought a Heineken. I had to throw my auditor title to her to even be moved. That’s ridiculous. Philly (Bleu Martini) has definitely changed.

The ambiance was nice. The service was slow even though there werent a lot of people there. The hookah refil prices were too high, but the drinks were good. Its a little calmer before 11pm after that, this isnt a good place to sit and talk. I found myself screaming over the music or texting my friend that I was there with.

They were super cool. I will be going back again. I do think charging a cover with bottle service is a bit extra. I enjoyed my birthday.

BM is a total vibe! I will be back!!!

It was my first time here and everything was really chillin. They need to add a few vegetarian options.

This place is great for happy hour and just hanging out with a few friends. Its pretty small and gets real crowded on the weekends. Literally no space to even put your drink to your mouth

Been there twice with bottle service and have enjoyed myself .

Went here for a birthday outing. I dont drink or do hookah so cant speak on those aspects but the music was on point and it has a chill vibe. Its refreshing going out and not worrying about drama. My only issue was minimal space for dancing.

The Cheese Steak Rolls were delicious 😋, just wish they gave more 😔, and that sauce Soo good, also drinks were strong

Nice dinner. Went for restaurant week with 5 girlfriends... staff is super friendly and profeasional.

My Fiancé & I Love Going Here. They Have Pretty Good Food, TRY THE COCONUT SHRIMP. The Crowd Is Mixed In Terms Of Age & I Have Seen Different Ethnicities Of People As Well. The Service Is Always Good. The Bathroom Attendant Is Lovely, She’s Very Nice, Helpful & Fun! The Music Selection Varies From Rap & Hip Hop To R&B, Reggae, & Afro Beats. Sometimes The DJ Cuts Off Songs Too Quickly Though In My Opinion. If You Come In ~11pm It’s Fairly Easy To Get A Table.

Nice chill spot to vibe at this was my second visit here if youre thinking of suddenly deciding to head out in the city for last minute decision-makers🤦 reasonable entry price for ladies, chilled vibes, reasonable mixologist music & drinks wise passable food & crowdDefinitely planning on returning it was their first visit & we enjoyed ourselves💃Thxs Blue Martini

Great food. Great drinks. Ill be back

3 stars for the music The music is very good. Minus 2 stars because of the seating arrangements. Even if there is no one at a table you cant sit there unless you pay $250 for a table which includes a bottle. My friends and I had a good time eating the food we ordered standing up 🤷🏽‍♀️

Been here several times throughout the years and I always have a blast. The food and drinks are average. What makes up for it is the music. The crowd is mixed. I usually dress up when I go but there were people there with jeans and sneakers.

This is a good establishment for entertainment. This place was visited on a Sunday and the music was so on point I couldnt stop dancing. Customer service was also very good. You do not have to wait long for someone to help you. I must also add the ladies bathroom service is good as well. Ms. Naomi has whatever you need for us ladies. It was a great experience for me and will definitely come back here. Thanks

It was ok. No real dancefloor tho. The cover charge was high, but i understand ppl are still recovering from the pandemic. DJ was good, and hookah was good.

So my first time at blue martini. On Saturday night last weekend. It was such a good time . MyBar tender was amazing. My drinks wasn’t water down . My bar tender made me the best Paton shot . I’m definitely going back . Music was amazing . And it was scorpios birthday and we had fun .

This place plays great Hip Hop music. I absolutely loved the music choices. They turned the lights down and turned on a blue light which makes the place a bit more cozy. Their booth seats are comfortable too. I enjoyed my food. I ordered Cajun Salmon with mashed potatoes and veggies. It was pretty good. I came during happy hour so my Jolly Rancher Martinis were only 5 each and, to me, they were strong. My only complaint is that my waitress was a bit laxed. She helped the women at the table beside me way more than she helped me. I mean, she was nice and friendly, but she didnt earn the 18% gratuity that is included in the check. I got a bit hot after my first Martini and asked her for water that I have yet to receive. Yes, Im writing the review as Im sitting inside of the establishment and she still hasnt given me the water.

The DJ was lame. His music transitions were horrible. Some of the food was over cooked and the drinks were super strong, but the set up and vibe of the club was nice. The bartenders were also nice.

Its cramped for the amount of people who come through and the drinks are weak, maybe a little overpriced, but the food is good, the music is good and the crowd is good.

Loved the vibes in here and the food was good! I gave 4 stars because the music is so loud…

Was so excited to celebrate our gf b day . Group of 6. Made reservations for 730p came about 7 to have beverages at the bar. We were rushed to b seated at our table. The server Edna was not very attentive, left right after serving dinner , when asked where she was a different server stated she was on break. Now I have worked in the hospitality industry and never would you take a break when you have a big table.needless to say we did not see her again until we had to ask the hostess for our bill very disappointed that we had to pay the included gratuity for absolutely horrible service.did not see her again until we decided to pay bill, after sitting there for almost an hour never offered more beverages. Absolutely the worst service I have ever received. On the up side the food was delicious and the atmosphere was simply delightful. I definitely recommend the owner/managers train their employees to b more attentive to their customers. Especially since a $40 tip could. Have been $100.

Great atmosphere, hard to get seating on a Friday to dine. The food was good and service was friendly and fast. The music is great, the dance floor is tiny... maybe enough room for 10 people. And the bathroom attendant kept telling customers she needed money for her rent, it was a very awkward way to get tips. Will definitely go back despite the cons.

Music was good if you looking for radio bangers. The waitress the absolute worse ! I was there 8:30 to 11:00. Waitress takes FOREVER. I waited 20mins to order drink. I finally seen my waitress. She at the end of the eating and partying with another party.. Cant get up to dance. Cant get up to order drinks.

Music is good, the crowd is mixed and there is room to get your groove on. Definitely, a great place to go if you want a more chilled clubbing experience. The bathroom attendant was amazing as well, helped me construct my bun back together.

This place charges a cover charge and patted me down before I went in....that should have been my first sign to leave but I was meeting a date. It was so loud we literally couldnt hear eachother without mouths touching eachothers ears. There also arent enough chairs. I dont recommend it.

Fun for late night! Kitchen is open late and food is tasty!! Dj the night we went was amazing and security and bar staff were pretty friendly. Only complaint was there was a ton of hookah smoke but other than that, great time!

Had my birthday celebration here in January 2019. The prices for sections are ridiculous because of the small space you have. The customer service is mediocre, Ive had better. The food was good and cooked properly but the wait for the food was extremely long. I wouldnt go back but my celebration turned out great regardless of those few things.

Went on a Monday night. Place was dope, good music & good energy. Would have given 5 stars if the server wasn’t extremely rude & service was slowwww. We had to flag our server down every single time we needed anything & given attitude every time as if we were an inconvenience... Pricey but it’s philly so not unexpected. They add a 18% gratuity automatically, would have tipped more if the server made us feel more welcomed.

Lil narrow inside. Bathroom is kinda odd. I hate they still have someone handing you a towel so theres that awkwardness just to see that. I would hate that job... but drinks were fine, bartender was chill and recommended drinks, smokes... I got there before 9 bc apparently, they still charge; $20 isnt worth it. The bouncer guy felt me up so hard, I got excited. Very intense for no reason but if its too keep weapons out, I dont mind getting felt up

Honestly, this was a pretty unpleasant experience for me. The burger and fries I ordered were good, but the service was meh at best -- somewhat spacey and inattentive despite the fact that the place wasnt busy.The atmosphere was nice, but the bottled ciders I ordered came lukewarm -- yuck.All of this would be fine except for the bathroom attendant -- dear lord! She was telling women they werent allowed to pee unless they gave her money (and enforcing this rule by stepping in the way of the stalls). Then she went on a racist rant about white people not tipping her (Im white but dont look it). I tipped her, but only because I desperately needed to pee and get away from that uncomfortable situation. How amazingly unprofessional in a bar and restaurant that seems to be trying really hard to be upscale.I wont say it was a terrible experience, but the only positive thing was the food. Everything else needed some serious Bar Rescue action.

If i could give this place a zero no stars rating I would. Has to be the WORST service I’ve experienced in years. First off, we had to purchase a bottle to sit down. We purchased & they sat us in the back, saying it gets packed etc, again, we stayed for 2-3 hrs and it’s was still no one in the ‘reserved’ sections, a sure rip off. Secondly, the hookah here is cheap and trash, don’t purchase unless you want to get the coals changed several times and oh there’s a $5 fee for that. Once seated we didn’t get our order taken until 30 mins after we sat down. Fast forward, poor service, gratuity included so I’m guessing that’s why the service was so poor. Never going back again.

Salmon platter was the BEST Ive ever had! Truly! Drinks are made BEST by the female bartender. Overpriced ($15) for a 4.5oz. tiny martini glass cocktail. No happy hour drink specials. When you go just order the salmon platter, dont even think about cocktails. Its not worth it.

We reserved a $250.00 table to sit on row like seating directly next to a section of 10 to 12 random people. There really isnt any other seating arrangements. Also charged a surprisingly $53.00 gratuity fee for mediocre bottle service of warm champagne. We were drinking champagne next to folks that dressed liked they just came from the laundromat. Prior charged an entrance fee of $20 per person for arriving after 10:30pm despite buying a table. The deejay played no variety of music. Maybe Afrobeats Sunday is better and the crowd more sophisticated because Saturday wasnt it.

Security was Waitress were very rude. Charged us $20 on no cover hours.. (didnt find out till after) this place use to be good however now just a mess. Definitely seems like low key scans going on here.

We went here for my friends birthday. We had to pay an automatic 18% gratuity for a party of 3. We were not told that a gratuity would be added to the bill. The server, she was horrible disappeared for at least 30-45mins. She didnt bring us anything we asked for in a timely fashion (over 15 mins for water). The seating selection couldnt been worst for a reservation. The food was good but a bit overpriced for the portion. This was my second time there and I will not recommend this place again.

The DJ on Friday played nothing but hits that kept everyone dancing all night. I had a good time. The food is good too. Id go back again. Dress was very casual to club attire. There were mostly people in their 20s but all ages were represented well.

Great place for a variety of musicAfrobeats, Kompa, Soca, DancehallMy girls and I had a grand time. This past Sunday. I will definitely be going again.Food was great. Drinks were even better. Definitely try their green tea shots!

Our waitress was not pleasant at all. She never checked on us and we had to flag her down to pay the bill. She was lucky for the automatic gratuity for the table. The best part of the place was the bathroom attendant. She was hilarious!

Dimly lighted blue. Ambiance is okay. The music, Dj and bartenders are great. various seating couch. Cover is about $20.00.Sunday is afrobeats night.

First time...I was expecting more of a lounge atmosphere but the ambiance was nice. I had a great time with some amazing people. Food was good too. I would go back.

I don’t write a lot of reviews unless I’m extremely impressed or extremely upset with an experience. I have to say I was very thrilled and happy with my experience here on Friday (May 11th) night. I was celebrating my graduation party with my friends and we couldn’t decide on where to go. We chose Bleu Martini because we know the DJ will be good. And let me tell you they did not disappoint! The manger recognized how large of a party we were and offered us a seating area with no required minimum. Now granted we spent quite a bit of course but we definitely appreciated the gesture. The music was fantastic, our server was attentive and prompt, the hookah was awesome and the bouncers were too too cool and awesome! Even gave us a couple of minutes to finish our drinks when they closed down. You never know what to expect when you go out, and I’m very very happy we picked Bleu Martini! Thank you for making my night epic. Don’t think I’ve danced that much in quite a while. We barely sat down the whole night! Thank you to your entire staff! Well done! I’ll certainly be back!

Its nice place to socialize and drink listen to music I like here been here a few times

Went to get what I thought would be a quick drink with friends, which turned into two hours because of slow service. It was understandablly full, but we didnt even get a menu until 10 minutes later. That night we ordered 4 cocktails, an order if chicken wings and one order of chicken tenders. When we were getting ready to sign the bill we noticed that it was 80+ dollars. We brought it up to the server and she was ridiculously rude and pretty much yelled at us about the bill. Would only recommend to someone I hate!

I LOVE the Bleu! I have been going there for over 2 years and I refuse to go anywhere else. We know the bartender so well that when we walk in and make eye contact he gets our drinks rolling. If you are looking for a PACKED club with high energy please go ANY Saturday night and its gonna be LIT! If youre looking for fun but less people try Friday and if you enjoy the lovely music of the islands try Sunday. Def a mixed crowd which I love!

Reserved a table for 6, had to share 2 tables with two other parties. Had to wait over 35 minutes for a bottle and when I talked to the manager with the short pixie cut, she said while clapping her hands in my face that she been around for 20 years and their service is what it is and if I dont like it oh well. Very unprofessional and treatment depends on your ethnicity.

If you enjoy a hookah bar...then this is the place for you

For a Tuesday night happy hour the music was too loud for the amount of people in the bar and certainly was not the type of music I was expecting for dinner. Initial service was slow to take our order but the food certainly came out quickly once we did order. Appetizers were good as was my burger. The wife’s spicy sushi was less spicy than the white rice it was made from. Dessert should have been left in the kitchen. Once the bill was sorted out since we had a groupon there was an automatic 18% tip for 2 of us. No need for us to ever go back here.

Dont do it!!! They dont tell you at the door that you can only get a table if you pay 250 once inside.If you came to order food you will have nowhere to sit unless you buy a bottle to sit at a table. The girl at the front doing the seating on Sunday has a smart mouth, so I can see why they need the cops. This place has gone down since Covid 19. We used to be loyal patrons, no more!! We spoke to the owner who basically said oh well. Refused to tell people up front at the door what the situation is inside. They are misleading people to get their money and than trying to make them pay more once inside. I know everyone took a financial hit during covid but you dont take advantage of your customers to recoup the money. Not to mention, security was making rude comments as we walked out. I repeat never again!!

Went here last night and it was popping! Good drinks +Beautiful ppl =Fun. A GVO type of party. My only con is the bottle service for the lil space or just to have a seat isnt worth it in my opinion unless its a birthday or something Similar however Ill definitely be back

The Bleu Martin Vibe is very social and fun. A more diverse crowd throughout the week. Great food, hookah and lots of African & Caribbean Ppl come from the Tri-State Area to party here especially every Sunday!!! 🚀🚀 The international DJs are super...S/O to DJ KING (Sierra Leone).🚀🚀 Its also pretty safe for partying in Center City. The Bathroom Attendant NAOMI is the best!!! It stays clean n she has whatever you need to feel refreshed and beautiful again before you leave.My only issue is that thedrinks are waaay too high. One cheap white wine and a beer was $22 🙄

Good Food. Someone should have warned me about the music. I consider it trashy. I couldve eaten outside due to COVID. But not a fan of eating in an open street. Would not return. Could do better to cater to all generations.

Not a bad steak but could have been presented better. The fried shrimp came out on what looked to be 2 day old lettuce. But overall the food is pretty good but presentations could be a bit better.

Had my 30th birthday here back in Oct. Table and bottle service was really nice however the free passes were only good until 11 none told me that so when my husband got there at 11:15 he was told along with his friends who were there to celebrate that they could not use the passes that i paid for through my package! I was terribly disappointed. That should be included in the conversation when making reservations

Afrobeat Sunday night is a go. Chill spot n cool folks

It was a dead night, mid week but the service needed to be better. The waitress was on her phone the whole time and sitting down in the booth. The place is so dark you can barely read the menu. I had much better for less.

Great place with great drinks, but during happy hour they charge 18 percent gratuity. Its not an issue, but for someone who walks in and orders a drink without looking at the menu with that clause....... you should probably inform the customer. Otherwise, a great place to grab a drink and lounge. :)

The experience was mediocre along with the food. I was with a group of people during restaurant week. All of our steaks were over cooked. The romaine salad was supposed to have a Dijon vinaigrette but just tasted like oil and vinegar. The cheesecake wasnt great. The entire experience was mediocre. Not sure if I would visit this restaurant again.

I wouldnt go here again. I ordered a beer, got a cider. Then was told they didnt have the beer I ordered. Asked for a different one, they didnt have that either and then got a run down of the rest of the beer they didnt have that was on their menu. I was going to eat there, but decided to leave. The atmosphere is like a strip club without strippers.

I knew ahead of time that hookah was on the menu at this lounge but unfortunately, the thick smoke of hookah not only greeted us at the door, it actually consumed the entire space. It was difficult to see or breathe so we lasted less than 5 minutes in there. I was really looking forward to visiting the lounge and will try it again.

Overall, everything was pretty standard. Service was pretty slow. Found out there is a forced 20% gratuity and was charged $200 for food and drinks we couldve got anywhere else (much faster) for less than half the price.

Bleu Martini was an interesting little bar we stopped in for a martini before seeing a show. They had numerous happy hour specials, and I strongly suggest you stick to those. We did not, and two martinis were about $38 including tip. I need to note that had we stuck to the happy hour menu of cocktails, the specials looked very good. So this is in the fault of the bar. The surroundings were very modern and attractive, and they also do hookahs for your smoking enjoyment, although my girlfriend and I did not partake.

I like it here but its cold... Been here a few times, favorite place to go if am hanging out at night in philly

Celebrated my birthday here since my original plan was to go next door to Cuba Libre but due to their overrated dress code we were able to get in and definitely enjoyed the music! It was a little ridiculous that we got charged a $20 fee because my boyfriend was wearing his polo hoodie because it was so cold out made me not want to go in but we made the best of out it. The crowd was popping and was pretty packed but we all had fun.

Always a great time. On the weekends the place gets packed & the DJ is always keeping you on your feet. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Hookahs are wonderful. Overall, my favorite spot in philly.

The food was good, our waiter was nice but the manager has a really nasty attitude, now my cousin did get up and danced a lil at the table but she was celebrating her being in remission, after a tough battle with cancer, I dont want to go nowhere I cant celebrate life with the ppl I love and or care for! So I wont be revisiting and I wouldnt recommend this place if your looking to celebrate or enjoy yourself they want you to spend your money eat, and leave quietly as they play rap, reggeaton and all!!! #IMSOCONFUSEDILLPLAYGOODMUSICBUTYOUCANTDANCE#

Very nice atmosphere and design. Lounge is setup for seating has plenty of tables and bar options. Drinks can be somewhat weakish but its very sexy inside and out.

Their martinis were good but a tad pricey. They gave us an extra martini that we didnt order and still charged us for it. My friends and I tried 4 different hookah flavors but they all tasted exactly the same. Either black licorice or motor oil flavor. Overall a terrible experience.

The worst experience ever if u are looking to enjoy urself go elsewhere. The Russian man are not respectful to woman and bad customer service u spend $100 on nothing and the tip is added to the bill already.

Its supposed to be a resturant/lounge but its a club at night with two Cramped, overcrowded, overpriced place that think theyre upscale but not even close. All sorts of sketchy things happen. If you were there earlier eating, drinking or smoking hookah, you would be asked to vacate your seat at 9:30pm unless you buy a bottle which is $300. Seats wpuld probably give you back problems. Patrons can get really rowdy & uncontrollable. Toilets are disgusting most days but on the plus, they have good music & you meet a diverse crowd here. Drinks are cut so Ill say pregame properly or prepare to pay $300 for a bottle

Went three times and left three times. All they care about is bottle service tables. Good luck getting a seat at the bar because no one sits at the tables. I have had better food at McDonalds.

Food was OK. They let us sit at a table but our waitress we always had to call. 20% gratuity included in EVERY check & NO free refills on soda. Overpriced basic food & drinks. Never going again.

Im embarrassed because this is my first time goin and I must say I was please. Food is good but a bit pricy once u see what you. Drinks are awesome except that signature drink the Blue Martini please change it.

This place will shock you if you love to party ... You wouldnt expect from the outside look that the atmosphere is going to be as hype as it gets in there ... I went on Game 6 of the 2021 NBA playoffs ... Have a drink and get a hookah and chill .... Found a couple seats at the bar ...music was pumping ... Great DJ ... People had sections jumping.... Bottles were coming by ... Great attentive bartenders ... The waitresses were beautiful ... The hookah was great ... Great birthday party atmosphere .... Then I went to the mens bathroom and discovered there is another part of the club with another big bar and people partys are flowing over there too... Great Philadelphia club... Urban music was played the night I went ... I will be going back when Im in Philly...

This place is a joke. My table wobbled all night because it was off balance. The food is laughable at best! 30 for a steak and microwave veggies and potatoes! I dont get it. Its a scam and horrible place. Save your Money and time! This is the worst place Ive visited in Philadelphia hands down! Save time and skip this place. Oh..... the crabcakes.... you will find better in the freezer section of the supermarket. Its def cheaper. Horrible business.

Very poor management! I wish I had read the reviews before patronizing. We were seated for an hour before we were asked to get up... the short dark haired Caucasian lady told us our table was reserved even though other tables had reservation tags on them and ours did not... We asked for a refund... which was $10 per person and we were ignored...Service meant nothing so I must assume upper management supports this behavior! So sad! Please spend your money where you’re treated with class and respect elsewhere because you won’t find class & respect at the blu martini....

Good place to get some groove! I dislike the cover charge and it gets super crowded in there. The music selection however is quite good. The DJ plays some Afro beats which is awesome.

Food was great, chill vibe, and great happy hr.

When there for the first time last night. The experience was amazing and we had a blast. Our waitress Valerie was awesome and made our experience even more enjoyable.. I will most def be a repeat customer

The website says #1 Upscale Lounge in Philadelphia. They need to take that LIE down! This is beyond bottom of the barrel. I attended for restaurant week with my significant other. I picked this place over another based off of a recommendation and I was entirely disappointed. To start by saying, they were clearly unprepared for restuarant week! If you cant take the heat, get the heck out the kitchen!! I guess their kitchen staff was overwhelmed by the volume of people?? Because it took HOURS for us to get our food. Our salads took 45 minutes to get to the table but, the killer was we ordered appetizers and got the salads first. After waiting that long for a bag tossed salad with wilted lettuce, it took another 30 minutes for 2 out of 4 appetizers to come out. Apparently they forgot to cook our other 2. Then another 35 minutes for our actual entrees. I got the glazed salmon and rice and it tasted like a fish tank. Absolutely bland and the rice was tasteless as well. My boyfriend got the pesto gnocchi and it was also bland. The cheesecake tasted like it was pre frozen then thawed out. Disgusting. Once the bouncer arrived and the DJ came, their alleged dress code went right out of the window. We saw people in hoodies and timberland boots, which was stated not allowed. If everything else wasnt terrible enough, the womens restroom was absolutely shocking. Tons of cheap perfume lined up on the bathroom sink, along with hair glue bottles! It was absolute ratchetry!! I am a REAL reviewer. Thanks to all the misguided ones on here saying how nice this place was. Theyre clearly paid..

If I could give less than 1 star I would. Poorly run business. Unethical business practices. Food is mediocre to say the least. The salmon was bland unseasoned and dry. The hot wings had nothing going for them as well. I ordered wings and shrimp cocktail which took over 45 minutes to arrive. Shrimp cocktail doesnt even have to be cooked so I dont know what the hold up was. I paid a cover charge to pay to have dinner. What a raquet. We had 2 beers a cocktail salmon wings and the shrimp we sent back. Our bill was $107. We complained about the wait and they basically could care less. I watched a young lady asked to give up her table while her and her friend was still using it after spending over $120 for new patrons that walked in. I was shocked after she stated they were not done and werent leaving till they finished their drinks. A manager had security remove them. The ladies room is disgusting and theres only one stall. Not sure why the girl is sitting on a stool in this nasty bathroom with a tip jar. After $25 for parking $127 for a terrible meal including cover charge. This was by far thee worst experience Ive had in Philadelphia. Needless to say I will never return. They need to be out of business.

DO NOT GO HERE AND SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS. They are what is wrong in this wondeful city. If you are Caucasian this is not the bar for you. i have never felt more out of place in my life or treated so poorly. complete embarrassment. they would not serve us. we are from Florida and dont know the area. we were in the bar for 15 minutes and went to both bars and they wanted nothing to do with me and the four people with me. this was clearly a racist situation. totally unacceptable. walked out and the door man and manager would not give us the $50 we paid for the 5 of us to get in and told us nonrefundable entry fees. clearly not worth the money. great job philly

Do not pay the $20 cover for the late night experience here. They don’t move the tables or bar seats, but have a dj playing dance and hip hop music. It’s not the spot to be on a Saturday night. Waste of money 💴

Ive been coming to blue Martine for close to 8 yrs now. It never disappoints. Martinis are always good. My favorite part is the MUSIC. Amid the pandemic its one of few places I can go to hear good music and have good drinks.I miss afrobeat night. I hope it returns.Side bar: I gave it a 4 star because the new owner is a little on the mean side and come off very stern which can make customers feel a unappreciated.. However, he hirees really good staff that makes up for inattentiveness, so I can look pass him for a good time.Overall, my experience is always great.. I always get the same waitress. Shes a sweet young girl. I wont even try to pronounce her name. Lol!

After readng the other reviews my expectations wasnt high. I have to say the service,food and drinks were good. There was a wait at the door, but not enough to damper the evening.

Terrible. Why they even let people keep coming in when they have no seating or standing available is beyond me. The staff is standoffish and uninformative. You just kind of wonder from one awkward spot to the next in there. If youre looking to show someone how fast you can waste your money for a really poor experience then this is the place for you.

The cocktail event was so fun, and the bartenders upstairs were incredibly charismatic and taught us so much about mixing drinks

A great place which offers great service. I got to shake hands with the manager. He was a really nice guy. Recommend checking this place out. Bottle service was excellent

OK. We stumbled into Bleu Martini right when they opened. I imagine that this place is a better venue in the evening hours. But for us, we enjoyed having the place to ourselves. The martinis were great, and the service was terrific.

Food interesting takes on multicultural staples... onion soup dumplings (no real soup)..chick skewers.. mac and cheese (no mac). orzo.. all very tasty. But wait time for everything even drinks and desert.. was a pace killer for anticipation. flo style of handling orders is to blame... or credit. you have to go there understanding that there will be plenty of time for doing other things at your table besides actually eating.

Overcrowded and not worth the 💰. I went bc my daughter wanted to go out for her birthday. The place is not what it used to be. Dark and treacherous inside. Ppl spilling drinks and ranch dressing all over the floor. $46 for 2 drinks and mines went missing soon as I put it down???? Then some dude pressed me for my # and we got the hell outta there. We went somewhere else where you wouldnt be killed for bumping into someone accidentally. I almost had a panic attack😂.

Visited on a Friday night around 8-9. Able to get a seat at the bar. The food was pretty good and reasonably priced. Drinks were a little water downed but still good

I haven’t been to this place in a long time. It’s under new management. The new management sucks. I ordered 2 drinks (which were horrible ),then the check came and they took it upon themselves to add gratuity 18%without even mentioning it. $24 . The bartenders charge what they want, 2 other customers come in their drinks came to $18 the girls told them they only had $11 the bartender said ok.. Sad!!! Will never go back again to the Armenian place

The martinis were ok. the only decent thing I can say about the place. the food was dreadful and when I told the manager about my meal he was rude and insisted that his mashed potatos were not frozen when I knew for sure it was. the food is ghastly and the people that eat there are less than savory. bring a gun and tuck your chain in and leave your wallet and cash at home if you know what im saying and dare eat there.

Me and my husband went there for my birthday and it was amazing, we had a great time the atmosphere and service was awesome. The bartenders was sooooo nice Ave helpful, I will be back really really soon..

Beautiful People.Diverse crowd.Lovely vibeMixed cultureSecurity on guardNo dancing light thoI will revisit and update this review.

Make sure if you go to this place, that you remember how much your drinks cost. I ordered two shots of Jameson and each bartender charge me a different price for it. 15- 20 $ by the end of the night, THE BARTENDERS ARE CROOKES AS HELL!

Cute Little Spot for Cocktails and Appetizers 🤗

I went during restaurant week and I regret doing so. Everything except the wings and Caesar salad tasted bad. We ordered the filet mignon with mashed potato as well as the salmon with rice. The steak was not filet mignon, it was a big piece of sirloin that had a weird taste. The mashed potato had box mash see thru consistency, no taste. The salmon had a strong fishy taste. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

It is OK, draft beer overprice and tastes strange. Hookah was OK, nothing special. I will not come back. The waitress was sitting all the time in her phone did not get any attention.

Great place to hang out with friends on a Friday or Saturday night. 4 stars because they charge a cover charge and I think thats rediculous if I just want to eat. Food was amazing just a tad too expensive.

Nice place, bartenders very nice and funny. I went to early for it to be crowded but as I was passing by later at night the place had a DJ and there was a long line of people. Seems to be popular in Philly.

The only good thing about our experience was the drinks... even those were way over priced for their sizes though... calamari was mainly fried onions, edamame was cold, Margherita flat bread pizza came served as a pile of pizza... seriously thought it was a lasagna at first... and the bbq chicken quesadilla was HORRID... $167 for the worst food & drinks EVER.

I always enjoy my time at Bleu Martini. The restaurant has a wonderful Happy Hour special each day from 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM with $5 tapas and drinks. Have a seat at the bar or a table and enjoy! Parking tip: park on the Walnut Street bridge.

Do Not go here, they have FALSE advertisement online stating that happy hour is 4-8 but when you get there they tell you it’s until 6. The manager isn’t helpful at all, they should honor the happy hour prices since its online. HORRIBLE!!!!!

I use to enjoy going here now i absolutely regret it the food was horrible the drinks are water down completely the service is horrible and we also order the hookah but that didn’t come out until we got our food and that was the first thing we orders before we even sat down this place use to be a nice vibe but it isn’t anymore if your in desperate need to go somewhere last min then this is your go to other than that i would not plan to go here

I came here for my birthday. Nothing planned or reserved. The waitress was attentive and the drinks were STRONG. We had a good time and I brought in 25 almost drunk as a skunk.

Don’t even waste Your time & money here ! You need to pay at the entrance and eat and drink standing up if you don’t buy a bottle for a vip section. And that won’t be an issue if they inform you before you go in but no.

The music is really good!! I always have the best time here. My wife Jennifer loves it here. The staff is friendly especially the hookah girl.

Waitresses were slow and unattentive. DJ was alright. Had a section near the bathroom; not a perk. The ladies bathroom attendant was the best employee I encountered. Such a shame.

Good food, good music! Service could be better, bouncers could be nicer👎👎👎👎! John the bartender on Saturdays is the best! Bathroom attendants were very nice! Cover $10

The wait to get in took forever and they closed at 12. But the food, drinks, and hookah came out fast. You definitely need a reservation to avoid the wait

The waitress was just chilling barely checked on us. The food isnt all that good. Soda taste very cheap. Just not a good experience for me. I would not return here. Throw the whole experience away

It was okay...went with my wife expecting to dance...and we did dance a bit up against a wall but there’s no dance floor which is a shame because the music and atmosphere is pretty good. The drinks are pricey, but the bartender was friendly at least. Didn’t get hookah because I don’t smoke, but the people next to us did and I was sort of shocked by the price so be prepared to overpay if you’re going for that.

Awesome service and music! The security guys Dwane and Brandon were awesome! The management and hostess were awesome! ALL AROUND GREAT PLACE TO PARTY and HANG OUT WITH FRIENDS ❤

Great place , usually crowded but drinks were pretty decent price.

Definitely not what it used to be... Stopped in on a Friday night with a few friends after dinner around the corner & the place was pretty much empty. Drinks & service were so-so

Always a fun place to hang out. The service is good, the DJ is great. Missing a star because its so narrow, you feel packed in.

I went on a slow night so there werent many people. But very good cocktail selection. Good bar food. Nice music.

This place was horrible food uncooked they’re disrespectful to the waitresses this place is a 0 on my scale

I stopped by Labor Day evening without your appointment for dinner. The food was excellent I could not complain about the service but the music was something else

Very cool, trendy place with hookah and club music! It reminded me more like an awesome lounge with big two bar areas)))) recomend to go there after some fancy dinner for chilling out and good drinking

It was a pretty good chill vibe on a Wednesday night... that Bleu Martini is good, blue, and sweet.

Me & my girlfriend came here, We had a ball here, I love the Club, & love the way the layout is, It got real crowded here, The food & drinks are expensive, But the food is very good, The bar people is real fast serving ur drinks, They do hve a lounge area here, along wth Hooka....They do check ur ID @ the door, They hve Secuirity here as well.

Did not eat the food here just got some drinks with my boy fell off in this place after eating for some nightcaps and this place was all the way live they was loving a little Chico up straight up good music everybody was Jammin and good vibe no fighting peace and love grown folks dress to impress good time Philly streets .

Nice intimate setting. Was able to sit and talk although the music was really loud. I would definitely go back.

Too crowded, not a good place to dance. Good if u wanna just drink. Doorman tries to get over on u if he thinks u have money, dont let him.

The food was just okay, its passable for a bar. The drinks need some work, however I did enjoy my hookah service.

I love that happy hour is from 4-8pm great food and drinks. It’s just one lady that stands at the door with hedgehog hair cut that was really nasty otherwise all is well.

I had a great time at Blue Martini the atmosphere is cool... there was a section at the bar where it was very intimate and I had a lovely time with my husband and I will always go back the only thing that I wish they had was quicker Food Service

The V.I.P experience is out of hand. We were in there for about 2 hours and there were numerous tables that were empty because they were reserved. Also, at a certain capacity, they need to turn people away. It was beyond suffocating after a point.

Its crowded but they have a reason to be.Good drinks and hookahs. Great music great vibes

Stopped by for some cocktails. They were ok nothing that wowed especially for being a cocktail bar. Martini served in tumbler glass filled with ice. So much ice that after a few sips, gone. Many different choices is a plus.

Young crowd when it gets late, but good happy hour spot for the professional adult. The food and drinks are pretty good and staff is always friendly.

30$ for one old fashioned? Ridiculous the bottle of makers is 36 max! I sent my friend in later and they charged him 20$ crooks, the bartender was slow and it helpful and added gratuity to me and my wifes check, in between the 8 drunk sloppy people bumped into my chair every few seconds because the dance floor was everything that didnt have a table or barstool, the food was ok and everything was overpriced, if you want the frat party plastic cup scene at exaggerated outrageous, probably illegally varying prices this is the place for you ! I was looking for an upscale martini bar this is not it. Hated it.

I celebrated my 30th birthday here and had a great time. Food and drinks were good. Love the scenery and music.

I liked my drink, which was all I had in an hour of placing an order for an appetizer. The manager was not accommodating at all and we decided to leave the establishment without having eating anything. Nothappy

Food was disgusting. Service was horrendous! Do not eat here! Managers were being very rude and racist!

Drinks are always great. The 4 stars is only for the crowded space that you can barely walk through to sit at the bar on busy nights

These had some of the most reasonably priced happy hour appetizers that Ive seen in Center City. They were not minuscule I had the chicken Caesar wrap and it was actually filling

Bleu Martini is an exciting, fun nightclub with refreshing libations. It is very popular and has a large, diverse following. You would be well advised to spend an evening there.

Had so much fun with my siblings at this place. Gets crowded, but a great time, good drinks and hot music.

Horrible place, Waitress was nasty and the food wasn’t good, drinks tasted more like sour flavor then liquor. Never would I go back

So warm and inviting. Arlin is an absolute gem! Great happy hour prices and delicious martini selection. Next time well try the hookah!

Food, ambiance and service were great

I had a horrible experience paying for VIP here! They took a huge amount of money off my card! Its a little Asian lady there that did it ! I was pissed off because it was no one to talk to about it smh BECAREFUL

It was pretty good, I just dont recommend them not telling you what the bill is and charging a automatic 18% gratituity smh

Drinks are over priced security was professional. Atmosphere ok but to small and terrible drinks that are over price, we ended up getting bottle service

Great drinks, atmosphere and music. Had a great time. Everyone got along and the dance floor was LIT 🔥

Ghetto!! You were warned. Bartender didnt know how to make a Tom Collins and had an attitude that we asked. Moscato and Boones Farm wine are the appropriate choices.

Great food, service is amazing, the DJ does the damn thing, and Brandon the Bouncer keeps you safe all night long! Plus hookah hookah and flavored hookahs

Had a double date with my girlfriend and her friend never been to this place before really good food cozy atmosphere in a nice part of Philly would deathly go again if youre reading this go to Groupon and get yourself one for this place

The food was delicious best Caesar salad I ever had and the drinks were reasonably priced and also delicious the Endless summer is one I liked

Went here for a birthday party. Nice atmosphere, good music and good food. I would go again.

Its a place for the young crowd. But when you come with a group, fun is waiting on the other side of that door! I really enjoyed myself! ms.gadget1onpaxon

Music choice was excellent. Drinks are okay but still a great experience. We will be back after covid 👌🏾

Music is great and staff was energetic. It was nice around 10pm after that it became so crowded you could barely walk anywhere.

The decor and atmosphere are good and they offer hookah which I love, but the mixed drinks are too expensive for what you get. The drinks tasted like juice.

The ladies bathroom was disgusting; they havent dust in there and centuries. I visited there on a Wednesday evening and Im sure that no one clean the bathroom from the previous night they were open. How disgusting.

Food was nice, but the staff is extremely surly, drinks were all way too sweet, and the service took forever

Nice hooka selection, great mix of music, trendy venue overall with good bar food.

Good music and best services from bartenders also the place safe as manage with the right person . I recommend this place for everyone whom looking to have good time during weekends and Sunday

Dj great, food is good, just not spacious enough and cant really dance of party is placed next to bathroom. Pointless having a seat there.

Great music and entertainment. Nice atmosphere and great bartenders. Will definitely go back

Cool place. Went on a Saturday night. Mixed crowd. DJ was pretty good. Catering to the 25 plus crowd.

Best atmosphere. Music and food is legit. Great night life in the city

Its a very nice place, music was great, and drinks was great! Just need alittle more dancing space

Terrible customer service. They get one star because the bathroom attendant displayed better customer service than, the owners & waitresses/,bartenders. Whomever they were.

The service was horrible the food took 35 mins to come in a empty restaurant and management doesnt have a clue how to manage a restaurant. The place was empty! I should have took the hint! I will never ever be back!

The food and nightlife was an incredible experience. I plan to return.

Great food excellent customer service and security. First time I will definitely be back.

1st time here since covid, the food is good especially the chicken quesadilla. The hookahs are on point.

I went for happy hour and didnt think it was a great happy hour place. It might be more fun at night.

Loved it we had such great time and the music was awesome. Would totally recommend.

Its a good atmosphere and the food and drinks are good. The staff is great too.

Food is great and waitress and hostess was awesome but it was Cold as if there was no heat

If your looking for a night out. This place is definitely a place you want to check out. Good vibes and good music.

I had a blast on Sunday night! It was tight but a good crowd and great music!

Had a great time with my girl on a Saturday night. Extremely crowded but we 💃🏾 had drinks 🥂🍹🍸 and wings 🍗.

To list sushi on your menu and not know how to make whats listed you need to be ashamed. Find a better avenue and stick to better your shotty bar food!

Vulgar music but the chicken and waffles were good. Went on a Tuesday night so no crowd. Ok, drink specials.

I absolutely loved it, the music was good, the people were nice. but the space was way to crowded for how many people they let in.

Nice place,The food was very good, Drinks were fantastic and our waitress Alexis was GREAT.....I will definitely be back......😊
