This was our first time at Blue Marlin. We had a great experience. Had reservations for 5:30 on a Tuesday evening. Seated right away. Our server was Addy(sp? . She was super sweet and knowledgeable about the specials and menu items we had questions about. I was really impressed when another couple was being seated after we were there for a bit. I didn 't quite catch what they didn 't like about the table the hostess had chosen, but I heard her say We can go somewhere else! Let 's put you somewhere where you 'll be comfortable! And they went to another part of the restaurant. We also had a manager come by and ask how things were as she cleared some of our used dishes. The food was excellent....
The service was excellent, but the food left a lot to be desired. The mixed appetizer platter featured crab cakes, which were bland, small fried shrimp, and overly spicy fried green tomatoes—seasoning doesn't necessarily mean hot. The best part of the meal was the pimento cheese with pita. For the main course, I had shrimp and grits, and while the grits were wonderfully creamy, the small shrimp and a bit of sausage were very underwhelming. I can't help but wonder where the shrimp came from—are they sourced locally? For dessert, I tried a slice of chocolate cake that was not only quite large but also overpriced. Although the presentation with the plate, ice cream, and whipped cream was appeal...
I went to this restaurant with my wife to celebrate. I can honestly say the service, the food, and the atmosphere was great!! My wife and I ordered 4 appetizers, 3 meals, and a dessert. I can honestly say that we never had to worry about sitting with tons of plates as our server, Dononvan, made sure it would come spread out to allow us time to try everything and wrap it up to go before the next set of plates came. All 8 plates were seasoned and cooked to prefection!!
The Blue Marlin is a cozy restaurant in Columbia serving steak, fish and a variety of other plates. I?ve been to Blue Marlin a few times. I recommend scheduling a reservation. The filet has always been cooked just right and flavored well. The corn grits, vegetables, and spinach are excellent sides. They also have a nice red and white wine selection. The outdoor seating has heaters when the weather is cool.

Great service, large portions of tasty food at a terrific price. Pecan dusted Calamari, Fried Green Tomatoes, Shrimp n Grits, Creole Shrimp, Firecracker Flounder x 2. Our party of four visited late lunchtime, it was crowded but we had made reservations ahead of time and were seated immediately. Looking forward to a return visit for the salt and pepper catfish.
Genuine southern hospitality at its finest! The bartender was great he told me about some of the local favorites. Explain a little bit about the town. I had appetizers for my meal. I love the shrimp and grits, and excellent pimento cheese, and the gumbo was not my thing that night. The building itself is beautiful!
Wow. Flavor!!! The jalapeño mescal mule too. All the food was full of flavor. A great stop for us on the way home to Florida from Tennessee. Gumbo. Shrimp and grits. She crab soup. Calamari and crab cakes!
The table was ready right at our reservation time. The staff were friendly and helpful. Pimento cheese and crab cake appetizers were great and the shrimp and grits were great as always!
