Visited the Blue Door for dinner, was impressed with the menu, however the food was a different story. Although not bad, I found it to be somewhat tasteless, rather bland. The service is good, however if you plan on drinking, expect to wait. All in all, there are other places in sobe that I would recommend above the Blue Door.

Such a treat getting to go to blue sea whenever I am in Sobe. They have the most innovative rolls and their sashimi is always so fresh!

As mentioned in previous reviews this restaurant have changed name to Bianca. I was not a guest in the previous restaurant at Delano so I can not compare. However, we enjoyed our evening there and the food was good. The service from most of the staf was outstanding, however a few of them spoiled the total impression.

I have been a frequent guest of the Blue Door and The Delano Hotel for many years and this recent change to Bianca is a huge disaster. The service was beyond poor and the attitude was even more of a disappointment. Food was very average and unispired. Reservations made it seem impossible to get in but was empty (smart move... More

Love the breakfast here! Restaurant overlooks the pool. Had dinner as well, pricey. Maybe not worth the price but still a fun time. I feel like there are better values elsewhere in S. Beach.

Great restaurant for good food lovers and also a great atmosphere. Blue Door is located in trendy boutique hotel called Delano, and it is on the terrace overlooking hotels garden. Expensive, but worth it.
