I feel like I don 't have the words to adequately describe the experience of dining at Blue Hill, but as far as I am concerned, if you are passionate about food, you must go. The setting is lovely and the service is extraordinary, but it is the quality of the food itself and the creativity of the menu that is awesomely exquisite. Everyone connected with Blue Hill is committed to excellence and it shows in every aspect of the evening. There is no menu, so don 't expect one but be willing to tell your servers what you like/don 't like, will eat/won 't eat. They will ask. Then they will begin to serve you from their seasonal selections. The wine list is incredibly comprehensive and the speciali...
It has been a long time since we have enjoyed a dining experience as much as we did this past weekend at Blue Hill Stone Barns. We arrived at the restaurant from a wonderful meandering road that snakes its way through the farm property. The Valet was prompt and the Maître d’ exhibited a kind of palpable enthusiasm that we've rarely seen at similar restaurants. The main Dining Room was romantically lit and the sound level made it easy to converse. Our waiters and sommelier (Alex, Christina, Zi and Charles) made a real effort to answer our questions and to explain each course as it was presented. We had the unexpected opportunity to enjoy one course in the Kitchen with Chef Dan Barber and his...
During our visit to the compost room for a half of a baby potato, we discovered where the fermentation had occurred: in a bag placed in the compost container. It was off-putting to say the least. I understand the commitment to seasonal dining at Stone Barns, but the menu was overwhelmingly filled with items like beets, squash, and parsnips. While I did appreciate the fact that the peasant bread was delicious and the beet sliders were so substantial that we could have eaten ten more, the overall sweetness of the dishes became a little too much for my taste, especially as someone who prefers savory flavors.
While I would recommend Blue Hill at Stone Barns for a first-time visit, I don’t see t...
Dinner for 2 with only 1 wine pairing and 1 coffee (tap water only) cost $800.00. $800.00! The only meal I've had that cost that for two people was at le Meurice--the star chef led, 3 michelin starred, Phillippe Stark decorated, restaurant by the Louvre in Paris. I considered that once in a lifetime fare; Blue Hill isn't once that once in lifetime experience at all, as lovely as it is. Another note, the meal is extremely vegetable heavy (many served simply raw) and protein light, which would be fine except for the stunning price. Our service was exceptional. I just would't feel right recommending this to a friend because of the price/value.

Blue Hill at Stone Barns is, in a word: SPECTACULAR. The food is creative, delicious, and FRESH! One incredible taste after another. I have been telling everyone what a fantastic time my wife and I had dining here. The service is also as good as it gets. Knowledgable, friendly, diverse...Awesome! This is a dining experience that everyone should experience. If price is a concern, I recommend not going out for 2-3 weeks, and then splurging! We will be back again and again. Blue Hill at Stone Barns is a very special place!
This was our third dining experience at BH@SB. It didn't disappoint. By far the most professional staff, creative presentation, and most eclectic fresh food by any restaurant around. Each course is explained in detail and it's all sourced from their farm or from parent Blue Hill farm in the Berkshires. It was a true gourmet farm to table experience. The price tag is step, but you get what you pay for. Definitely worth a trip for a special occasion.
We found Blue Hill to be an incredible culinary experience set in a warm and inviting environment. The way they presented the fruits of the field and pasture was both creative and artistic. We learned a great deal about the seasonality of food. There was a special magic to our dining experience, which we will always remember, thanks to the knowledgeable and courteous staff at Blue Hill.
We have dined at the finest restaurants around the world and none top Blue Hill. We have been there many times and Chef Dan and team continue to get even better so unique, interesting, innovative and flat out superb dining experience amazing service and atmosphere.
