We weren't sure if we would like it, so we didn't order much. Im already looking at the food truck schedule to see when they'll be in the area again. Can't wait for try their other items on their menu such as the crab legs & fried shrimp. Also will be buying their signature sauce. Highly recommend giving Ladson Sauce Seafood a try. You will not be disappointed!

The staff was attentive, friendly, and made us feel genuinely welcome. The food was excellent--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Every dish was well-seasoned and served hot, with generous portions that reflected the quality of the restaurant. The seafood was especially impressive, and the Southern Lowcountry flavors really stood out. Our server, Diego, was professional and knowledgeable. If you're looking for a great restaurant in Columbia for a date night, special occasion, or simply a delicious meal with outstanding service, I highly recommend Blue Marlin. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and look forward to coming back again soon! We had the fried green tomatoes as our appetizer and they were very delicious! We had the salmon ponchatrain and spinach and mushroom ravioli with grilled salmon and they were both very filling and flavorful!

I got the fried jumbo shrimp, fried scallops and fried whiting. Everything had the fried look and taste I've been longing for since moving out of NY. The whiting or batter for it could have used a little seasoning but over all I enjoyed it. The hush puppies had us confused thinking it was onion rings but I enjoyed those as well.

Food was good. Course had to wait almost an hour which I found odd seeing how there was all of 6 or…read more7 people in the whole restaurant at the time we went in. Service, well apparently the waitress was there to just wonder around. Took quite a while before she came to get our order. Apparently ordering a salad and getting one is on her list of things to do. Asked for a box, sat there as she walked by them several times and eventually walked OUTSIDE in the parking lot before she came back by our table and said " oh I forgot". Ask the cashier if there was a price reduction from the $65 bill due to not getting our complete order. She was shocked and took off the two teas. I normally tip well for good service but I'm betting this waitress was wondering why she didn't get a tip at all. Not being racists , but I felt like I was the wrong skin color for her to put much of her effort into. Just saying. Seems like all the others that ordered AFTER we ordered got their food promptly.

We were pleasantly shocked a few weeks ago, when we finally decided to visit and give them a try. This business has been operating for a few years, but we never realized that their menu offers "to go" options.

Soooo after a little hiatus ... fasting and cleanse .. I'm outside lol ... all the spots on Main st…read morewere packed soooo in the distance we saw the sign and decided to make that walk from main to assembly .. the atmosphere is lit immediately ... there was a dj spinning live well lit and vibrant .. a plus was that the music wasn't crazy loud so I could still talk to and hear my wife ... we ordered the beignets to to try which oil always skeptical to order outside of New Oreleans ... for my entree since I'm still on my cleanse of no fried foods .. I ordered a Caesar Salad with the Salmon ... the beignets honestly were better than expected could have a little more powered sugar and yes I know they are fried but I couldn't resist lol ... But the salmon and salad was top notch ... the Caesar dressing had a tangiest to it that paired great with the Salmon .. the seasoning on the salmon was beyond exquisite. My personal preference the salmon could have been cooked less but I was never asked how I wanted it prepared ... nine the less it was still good. My only issue with my dining experience was my waitress being unknowable about certain items on the menu which is unstable to a certain extent but atleast be able to make recommendations. Also we had an extended wait to leave because she got lost several times that night including behind the bar ..drinking . Which I don't have a problem with UNLESS. You can't multi task .. you have to know your customer .. my wife and I were ready to go after eating and she was have a good ole time lol ... I repeat which is cool but take care of you priorities first . All n all I'll be back after my cleanse to try the catfish that my wish said was amazing

And then when we got up and began to walk out, we could see one of the waitresses by the kitchen, throwing her hands up like she had just ignored us for a whole 20 minutes, I did inquire upon arriving if this was the same ownership of the Broad River location, and I was advised it was the same chef so based upon my previous experience, the chef is truly gifted and has an amazing craft, but poor Customer service will always outweigh the entire experience. as you could see, I had planned to do a video food review because I was so excited and even invited some friends to come and dying with us. Sadly, this experience was horrible and I was totally embarrassed for even recommending them as a reputable establishment.
