Reviews for Blue Fork Kitchen in Hastings, NE
We had great service (awesome waitress) and the waffle fries appetizer and lasagna main dish were great. But I am begging you... to please add more ambiance! The place looks like a school cafeteria, complete with the long cafeteria tables you see rightwhen you walk in the door. The solution seems really obvious (and simple)?put some really huge paintings on the walls so we getthe feeling that we are at a cool restaurant, not school lunch. Read more
I used "Open Table" to reserve a table and had marked "birthday" for why we were dining out that night. Table was ready when we... arrived with a cool little plate to mark the occasion. Drinks were a little slow coming out, otherwise service was great. Maindishes were tasty (turkey melt and salmon) but the brussel sprouts were a little salty and the soup was not quite what wethought it would be from what was described (chicken in it was very sparse and flavor was kind of blah). Overall, a good diningexperience :) Read more
Genuinely one of the best restaurants I have ate at in a long time! Blue Fork Kitchen?s interior is new and fresh but the food... and service is what I want to go back for. The burgers are delicious and juicy and thier cheesecake was the best I had ever had.Our server, Matt, was so kind and helpful and had great recommendations. Definitely eating there again the next time I am inHastings! Read more
We were stopping into town for Father's Day and came by. Best restaurant in town by far. Excellent beer selection, amazing... gluten free options, fresh food and great still water. Please support this business! Pesto lasagna, bison and bacon burgers,and fish & chips were amazing! Also, great ranch dressing to top it off Thank you! Read more
My parents, bf and I went to Blue Fork for a birthday dinner. I had the Schnitzel and Spaetzle. It was A-MAZING. It was... literally a slice of Germany. The pork schnitzel was the perfect size, tenderness, and crispness on the outside. The mushroomsauce was so delicious. The cooked lemon slice added the perfect tang to the dish. I just had to scrape all the leftover sauceoff my plate (it seemed more polite than licking the plate, which I was tempted to do!!) I also had a peach Moscow mule and itwas very good! My mom let me try a piece of her filet and it was so tender and delicious. This might just be my favoriterestaurant from now on! I would highly recommend this place. Seriously worth a visit. Plus, our waitress was very personable andattentive! Read more
I have been there three times now and have tried different dishes every time. The flavor is deliciously unique, portions are... plentiful, and price right for the restaurant type. The layout of the restaurant is also quite unique in comparison to otherrestaurants in Hastings. I enjoy the change. The staff is always polite, energuzed, professional, and knowledgeable. Theycan definitely help you with decisions. This time I tasted both the shrimp and grits as well as build the pastashrimp/pappardelle noodles/alfredo. This pasta combo might end up being my true go to when I go there. Read more
This place has just opened. They were offering a limited menu, with many delicious sounding items in the "coming soon" category... but we were delighted with what we chose. I would recommend starting with the corn fritters appetizer; it was amazing. Read more
Where do I begin?? the waitress was very attentive from the time I first sat down and great at making suggestions- it was my... first time there. She had great follow up for the whole service. I ordered a light lunch with the soup special - GREAT FLAVORon the pumpkin lentil soup. I also ordered the seasonal lasagna to take to my 87 year old Mom for dinner out of town. Theportion was very generous. I lost track of how many times she commented how much she loved the flavor and how good it was. Thenshe asked me if I could make it ????. My only regret - I didn?t take pictures. I wish I lived closer than Lincoln - I would bea regular! I loved everything about Blue Fork.?? Read more
