Bluegold

We went for Valentines Dinner.We tried the seabass and jidori chicken rather than the steaks. The seabass was a bit undercooked and the chicken was dry. I would have given the review a 3 star if it was based just on this meal, but I know the steaks are good.Another saving grace was the SALAD's. They were amazing! We had the Caesar and the tarragon blue cheese and both were excellent! The Mac and cheese is also delicious as a side but needs a little salt.The milk buns also never disappoint. So flaky and buttery!Service was a bit slow but they were really busy for valentines. We were not in a hurry so it was fine.Lastly. for anyone wondering if the patio is cold at night, it is NOT COLD. There are plenty of heaters and the wind is blocked so it was very pleasant outside and probably quieter.I think this restaurant is good for a night out but you have order the right items.

The service was horrendous to put it nicely. (December 24, 2024, 7pm)Our daughter ordered a bottle of wine, it took two trips over 45 minutes to the bar ourselves (because our waitress had disappeared) to finally get a bottle. The first trip to the bar we found out for ourselves they didn't even have that bottle of wine! So our daughter ordered another bottle herself from the bar ! Again, this went over a 45 minute period. Our dinner was another disaster! It was an HOUR before our dinners showed up. (The restaurant was half empty at this point.) Again our waitress was missing in action most of the time we were there and didn't even apologize for the ridiculous wait !! (I would have given a one star if it wasn't for the fact that the meals were delicious.)This is probably a one and done for us at Blue Gold.

Food was okay to me! It was my first time trying it and I got the pasta which I feel like could have had more flavor. I've never had Brussels sprouts but these were good! The bread was also yummy, it isn't complimentary unfortunately so if you want to purchase it go ahead! Overall I'd give a 7.5/10 I've had better pasta and better bread. But it's all preferences I'm sure many people love this place!

I came here for dinner 2 weeks ago & it was probably a 7/10?We ordered oysters, pizza, steak, & fries. The oysters were good & fresh. I forgot to ask where they were from. The pizza & fries were good. The NY Steak was okay, it was pretty bland honestly. We barely ate it. The main thing was the service was kind of slow. I'm not sure if they wait until you finish your appetizer but I'm the kind of person that enjoys picking at a variety of different things. We did tell them to bring it out when it's ready so maybe they were just understaffed that Friday..

We went to this restaurant for a nice dinner with my girlfriends our first night in Huntington Beach. One raved about her salmon and risotto, one loved her sea bass, and I tolerated my ahi tuna tartare (wish there were wonton chips or something to go with it?) appetizer and onion soup (not soup!!). Sounds like main dishes are their thing! We had a great waiter (Irving) and next time we'll be trying LSXO (the restaurant inside Bluegold).

Came here for dinner a few weeks ago and the food was delicious, but prices are high!Beautiful restaurant, some seats closer to the windows have nice views. Cocktails were all $18-20. My short ribs dish was delicious but $65. Could easily find this at other restaurants for $20 less. The side of mushroom risotto was $18 but enough for 2-3 people to share. It was really good though. Good place for a date night or special kind of celebration.

Came here for a Saturday brunch and it was just okay. You're paying for the location and view. The food is expensive for what it is. Ordered a Cioppino and while it had a good amount of seafood in it, it just didn't taste like how a Cioppino should. Someone in our party ordered an omelet, and for $20 it's highway robbery. It was so simple and basic and came with a side of mixed greens. Don't order the Vietnamese coffee here if you know what the authentic tastes like. This was not it. They should've just called it iced coffee because there was nothing Vietnamese about this one. Overall just wasn't impressed by this place.

A beautiful restaurant with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and Huntington Beach. Started with an El Chapo Margarita $16 and an Expresso Martini $21. Appetizers included milk rolls $7 and 1/2 dozen Kumiai Oysters $17 on the half shell. Main dishes were Cioppino $34 and Natural Ribeye Vietnamese Style $71. Everything tasted excellent, but I'd probably skip the Vietnamese Style as it didn't pair well with a ribeye. Service was second to none. Not sure about parking as we were staying at a hotel nearby and walked over

Lovely date spot to impress. Came on a Monday night, thus it was very quiet with hardly any diners. Restaurant is elegant with decor and romantic booth seating for special occasions. The food was delicious and artistically plated. Staff was attentive but gave intimate space for my friend and I to catch up over wine and appetizers. The seared Sea Bass outer crispy skin was AMAZING. Limited choices for single glass wines, but large selection for wines by the bottle. Bluegold is probably one of the classiest restaurant environments that I'm aware of in coastal HB! Don't miss it.

My husband and I enjoy dining at quality restaurants with fresh ingredients and excellent service, but unfortunately, Bluegold didn't meet those expectations. We started with the steak tartare, which was unappetizing and had a distinctly fishy taste. Our experience was further dampened by poor service. Although we had a reservation and were seated promptly, it took 15 minutes for our server to greet us, and over 20 minutes for our cocktails to arrive. While the cocktails were good, by that point, we were already frustrated. We also ordered a half dozen oysters. While they appeared fresh, some were unusually tiny, which seemed like a quality control issue. The venue itself was beautiful, but the service and food quality left much to be desired.
