    Blue point lived up to their reputation as a 5 star dining experience. The music was great and at a nice level to allow for easy relaxed conversation. Our waitress was very knowledgeable, attentive and friendly. The food was delicious and the portions were perfect. Everything was wonderful and we will go again.
