Love it!

by stylistreporter at Citysearch

We had our Christmas party here on December 8th. I cant begin to tell you how wonderful we were treated! The night started with the DJ playing tunes a 7:00 pm, great way to start a party for hairstylists since we like to dance. I ordered 8 different appetizers for the party, all were very good. Anything we wanted, we got. I would highly recommend Blue Dragonfly for your next party, or just stop by for dinner.

• Pros: Wonderful food, great atmosphere
• Cons: n/a

Excellent find for happy hour!

by ez2pleaz at Citysearch

My husband and I wanted to get some late night eats, and so we went onto citysearch to find a restaurant that was open after 10 and worth the drive. There were some very nice reviews about Blue Dragonfly, so we decided to go for it. Am I ever glad we did! We came in shortly before their upstairs bar closed, and I know the bartender probably wasn't thrilled to see us, but he didn't show it for one moment. He was absolutely wonderful about seating us, taking our orders, even checking with the restaurant kitchen (which was closing for anything other than bar orders) to see if they would make my husband a steak! He went out of his way to provide us with happy hour prices (even though we technically ordered after happy hour) and was prompt about getting us drinks and whatnot. The prices, also, at Blue Dragonfly, although they are a mite steep for the dining room (it is worth it, trust me!), are absolutely unbeatable in the bar. $4 Happy hour food, including burgers and fries (literally the best burgers I've ever had), lamb skewers, and more. Their drinks are original, inventive, and well-presented.We have already been back 3 times with friends, and I will definitely be back soon!

• Pros: Excellent service, atmosphere, food, value
• Cons: Upstairs bar closes a little early, but there's another bar downstairs

LOVE IT!

The staff AND the GM are always pleasant and professional. Great seasonally adjusted menu too, there's nothing like it in that area. The atmosphere is relaxed earlier in the week and more party-like on the weekends. They also try to keep it interesting with different exclusive events. I highly recommend checking it out.

• Pros: staff, atmospere, food

Blue Dragonfly

by jorge777martinez at Citysearch

(I ate dinner at the bar on a Tuesday night. Great bartender and friendly staff The food was incredible and the the prices were perfect. Blue Dragonfly has beautiful bar and two nice flat screens tv's that are very discreet and don't take away from the great design. I'm looking foward to their downstair lounge on the weekends. I Highly recommend this place.

• Pros: great food
• Cons: noon

Delicious Cheeseburger, beautiful atmosphere

by smizz at Citysearch

The downstairs of Blue Dragonfly is really cool. It is set up in a lounge style with comfy couches and fancy furniture. The room is huge and great if you are going out in a large group. The food on their happy hour menu is unbeatable. I would say they have one of, if not the best cheeseburgers in town.

• Pros: Cheeseburger, Atmosphere
• Cons: Parking

Unexpected excellence in SE.

by maryjane1982 at Citysearch

Blue Dragonfly is right around the corner from Aladdin theater on Powell...parking was tough, so carpool if possible. The atmosphere was very classy and mellow...waterfalls and dim lighting. Mediterranean menu...I liked that there weren't too many options so it was easy to make a decision. The golden beet salad and crab cakes were excellent. They have a bar/lounge downstairs with party "rooms" that were more than comfortable for our group of 6. If you like cocktails, try their Blue Dragonflytini. If you're a beer drinker, don't expect a large selection. The wine list looked decent though. Oh, and happy hour was good. Everything on the bar menu was $3.00. The crowd was diverse and the staff were friendly. I will probably go back for a "date night".

• Pros: Relaxing and classy, good happy hour, walking distance from Aladdin Theater
• Cons: Parking, would like to see a vegan menu item
