Article on Blue Grillhouse and website which re-opened after some extensive remodeling after damage from Hurricane Irene in late 2011.

Their price-point seems high for this area of Northampton County. They are charging $38 for a 10 ounce filet mignon, vs $38 for a 9 ounce filet mignon at Emeril's in the casino. I imagine Shula's Steak House in the Promenade mall is similarly priced.

Blue's does offer a $29 three course prixe-fixe meal, so there are less expensive options.

Frankly, if Blue's is charging $7-$12 salad + $38 steak+ $7 vegetable + $8 potato + $9 desert, I would be more likely to want to go to Bolete's for $75 and get the chef's 6 course tasting menu.

Six course tasting menu at Bolete's

But I would like to be fair. Has anyone eaten at Blue's and can testify to the quality of the food?

When Blue re-opened they jacked up the prices a bit. The food is pretty good in my experience, but nothing extraordinary. The happy hour specials are a decent value.

Shula's is even more expensive than Blue.

Even though I can afford it, I typically only go to this type of restaurant if it's on my employer's dime or someone else is paying.
