blue grillhouse

For more than four decades, hospitality has been a meticulously curated and polished art form at the blue grillhouse and event center locale. Every aspect of a guest’s sensory engagement – striking décor, pleasurable musical backdrop, atmospheric lighting, impeccable service, and extraordinary food and drink – contributes to an incomparable dining experience. Private spaces can welcome 10 to 400 guests, from corporate functions to weddings. 

The restaurant, along with the bar and lounge, offers a warmly sophisticated ambiance at lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch. Curbside pick-up of take-out orders is still available.

Although renowned for premium seafood and 100% Black Angus steaks from an upscale Chicago butcher, brunch features well-filled omelets, delectable benedicts, and hearty mains that include a juicy Grilled Steak Burger. Top-selling Buttermilk Chicken & Waffles delivers elevated homey comfort that would be challenging to replicate at home. Battered Southern-style fried boneless chicken breasts and Belgian waffles prepared with pearl sugar – for just a touch of sweetness – are finished with creamy sausage gravy that stars superb Italian sausage from a Midwest specialty shop. Two eggs, your choice of style, complete this satisfying plate. Innovative cocktails and an impressive wine list provide plentiful pairing options, though blue’s house Bloody Mary is a masterful rendition of this early-day drink.

With the barn-roofed patio now open for warmer weather, this casual destination – with a bar and central fire pit – is available for hosting private events.
