The food was sooo delicious. My friend had the veggie omelet which was amazing.(had a taste) Nice healthy amount of veggies with such a delightful flavor. They also did the traditional breakfast good as well. Very nice seasoning on the hash. It was such a great time Dee was a very good host and server. She did it all without looking over exerted. She gave great recommendations and remained attentive the entire time without being overbearing. I plan to visit again and I hope she's there! The owner was so welcoming and she came to check that all was well with us and offered great conversation. I look forward to being a long standing customer.

What a great experience! Great food, service, location, and modern looking restaurant. This is not your typical breakfast joint (ie IHOP, Huck Finn, etc). More upscale and worth every penny. The food was fresh, well seasoned and had a great presentation. Will definitely come back to try other menu items. Also met the owner...she was very welcoming and professional! Please give some (more) LOVE to Love On The Blu!

I just went recently since they changed the decor and I actually like it. The chairs are not as bulky and easier to mover. Service is always on point. I also go during the week so it's not as busy. My go to are the fried chicken wings and French toast. You can not go wrong w either. They don't have a meal with the wings and French toast so for 3 wings it was about $6-7. Not too bad but everything is expensive.
