Went to Blue Hound a couple of nights ago for the first time with friends. The hotel and restaurant had a cool and hip atmosphere. We were seated promptly at our reservation time and the place was not crowded. Our server was pleasant and knowledgeable and recommended several things on the menu including the special which was soft shell crab over an artichoke coulis with fiddlehead fern. I ordered the special (and a shot of gazpacho) and the others at the table ordered a flatbread pizza and tater tots (yum!), the salmon, and the chicken. When the salmon came out, it was such a tiny portion and my friend commented on it. I had an option of ordering one or two crabs with my dinner and I opted for one after asking our server if it would be plenty of food. I should have ordered two. The food at Blue Hound is creative, ubber fresh, and delicious. However, we all left still feeling hungry due to the small portion sizes. We talked about ordering more food but the items are quite pricey and our bill was already over $100 without tip (only two of us had an alcoholic drink). We eat out frequently at all of the new hip and trendy places that are opening all over Phoenix and feel that with all the other restaurants who are now offering creative farm to table food at lower prices and larger (yet reasonably sized) portions, Blue Hound has some adjusting to do. It would be a tough sell to get me to go back unless I knew our bellies would be full and our bill not so high.
