As the missus' new office is just around the corner we repaired here for a small bite after work the other night. The place was quite busy, but we got a table outside and as the night was fairly balmy, that was fine.

I was pleasantly surprised to see a pint of Heineken was a mere S$11, normally fleeced for the same amount for a 330ml bottle in the majority of places here, so I had a second while the going was good.

Having not read the earlier review, I did opt for the mushroom soup, and while not fantastic, it was OK and a good dose of pepper did indeed help. Mrs R went for fish and chips and it was fine. I had the Creole Chicken, described as spicy but only if one was an infant. It was quite tasty nonetheless and the sauted mixed veggies that came with it were fine, nicely cooked so still a bit crunchy.

The service was absolutely on the ball, our order was taken and the dishes and drinks arrived with alacrity, as did the bill when requested, so either we were lucky or the staff have improved their collective act. We will doubtless be back and will monitor the service aspect.

Overall, it's a good version of "pub grub", reasonably tasty, reasonably priced. I cannot comment on the Blues or the Jazz as we cunningly timed our exit to before it started.

Always love this place. There's just something about it that make you feel at home no matter where you decide to sit. It was his first time and was wondering how he would take it. Apparently quite well. So let's go straight to the food review...

We had fried tofu, mushroom soup, fried burrito (I think that's what it's called) and salmon fillet.

Fried tofu: Not bad but not great either. Lots of lettuce and Thai sauce was just the right amount.

Mushroom soup: Please don't bother. I thought soup reheated out of Campbell's can was bad, this one was even worse...watered down. No amount of salt or pepper could save this bugger.

Fried burrito: Nice and worth a try but the fried skin's a bit too much for me.

Salmon fillet: This one saved the day. Salmon cooked just nice. Accompanied vegs are steamed to perfection. One of my fav from their menu.

I'm still open to try other things in their menu. Just for the atmosphere and company I'll make return trips for sure.

Didn't have a good impression of this place at 1st as the 1st time i visited, their service was horrendous.. Their staff took ages to let us know whether there was a table for us.. And when the waitress came back to us she actually attended to people behind us 1st! And simply told us to find our own table at the 3rd floor.. The boyfriend and us left in a huff..

Last week i went there again for a meal with colleagues.. I didn choose the place obviously.. I had Marinara which was not too bad and ice lemon tea.. Several of my colleagues had the Rib eye.. According to them, the steak was al-right only.. They had asked for medium rare but it came well done.. The service that day was SLIGHTLY better than my 1st experience.. but was slow too..

Service was terrible, food was alright only.. what can make me come back for more? beats me..

i'm not too sure what to say about this place - i only went once, and i had high expectations, everyone seems to be raving about blujaz - the food, the live music, the bellydancing, etc. and i must say that i was thoroughly disappointed. the food was ok, nothing spectacular really, i had the infamous dory fish fillet, and i cant say it was better then a dory fish fillet you can get anywhere else, it was just ok, i cant say much about the quality of drinks as i had a corona, and they are the same everywhere, as did the friend i was with. but what really got to me was the service - it took them a good 20 minutes to even take our order, another 45 for our food to get there and when we asked for the bill we got a blank stare- you would think we were asking for a bear to stand up and sing us a song, not to pay.

moreover, i'm not really sure why its called blujaz, i heard neither blues nor jazz the whole night, it was more r&b downstairs, then someone mentioned they had techno and house music upstairs and i saw a little poster for a bellydance act they have there, so i guess maybe they are a bit confused as to what their concept is????

not a fan of this place at all, there are much nicer cafes/restaurants around, that serve significantly better food at better prices, with better service, i live just 10 minutes away and i hang out in the area all the time, this is definitely NOT the place to go when in kampong glam.

I have been to the place twice.
I really recommend this place if you like a good place to relax.

The must try food will be their Dory Fish. Its fantastic.
The must try drink will be Mango Lassi. It is made up a mix of yogurt and mango.

You will love their ambiance there. Do look out for their cool lighting ^^.

If you are there for the band, it will be better for you to seat outside instead of inside since the stereos are indoors.

I hate their services (Note the 5/10 ratings). They lost my bookings on my second trip there. One of the waiter even forget my request for ice water.

Overall i say this place will do better if they improve their service. :\
