I usually like to visit places a few times before I give a review. BluNotes is no different. I've visited on numerous occasions and always manage to find a seat at the bar. The drinks are mediocre at best. To claim yourself as a "New Orleans" styled bar, you will need to step up your drinks - flavorless Hurricane just makes me want to order straight liquor. We were there on a recent Saturday night and the musical entertainment absolutely sucked. When I think New Orleans, I think jazz, blues with a little R&B mixed in between. I don't know what crowd this restaurant is catering to, but it is certainly not the crowd and faces that were in the bar last Saturday night. Fast forward last night (Tuesday) apparently it was talent "try-outs". The individual who handles the talent was extremely rude to one of the hopefuls. To the point that it was noticed by the patrons. She was covering her ears. She asked him to cut down the base and finally interupted him during his set, saying "...she didn't like it". Meanwhile the patrons at the bar and around the restaurant were grooving to the music. That really left a nasty taste in me and some other guests mouths, so we decided to leave. Restaurants in that location come and go. You have to cater to what the people want. I wish you much success, but I don't think we'll be back for a while. Sad, because you have the potential to be something really great!
