I had intended to try University Grill, unfortunately it was a Monday and they were closed; so I went on Yelp to see what was nearby that hit my fancy and Delta Blue looked interesting so I figured why not give it a try and I am glad that I did. Just a small storefront located at the edge of Berea near the IX Center Delta Blue is a nice place to get some fish or BBQ. Decorated with old 45 records and having some high top tables you can eat there or take out.
There is a large menu on the wall as you walk in, BBQ on one side, fish and seafood on the other with a long list of homemade side dishes in the middle. They also have a number of lunch specials available on a board by the register.
I had the lunch special 2 pieces of catfish, a corn muffin and 2 sides. The catfish was nice strips of sweet flaky fish with a crunchy cornmeal breading fried perfectly; it matched well with the homemade tarter sauce. For the sides I had macaroni and cheese and the candied sweet potatoes. The mac & cheese was OK, with larger then usual noodles and a mild cheese sauce; I think with a smaller noodle it would have tasted cheesier. The sweet potatoes were excellent, soft yet firm in a nice maple sauce. The muffin was good, with a mild corn taste and good texture. Overall a very good deal for $6.50.
Delta Blue is a good place to get some well made takeout or have a quick meal if you are in the area. When I am in the area and want some fish I will be back.
