Many delight in the careful balance of flavors that showcases the restaurant’s dedication to both artistry and tradition.

However, if you’re searching for a traditional comfort, the yellow and red curries with egg noodles have garnered praise for their richness and hearty notes, making them a must-try item. As noted by Ryan Ebert, the hospitality at Blu Mist is just as commendable as the food itself, with attentive and friendly service enhancing your meal.

Although some dishes may present as small plates for the price according to customers like Jay C, the quality here speaks volumes. The fusion approach is an exciting feature, attracting adventurous foodies looking for unique combinations that challenge the conventional Thai dining experience.

My mother and I went here and decided to share some small plates. It is not your usual Thai food, there are some classical dishes but some more modern ones as well which were very good. We had the Thai wings, calamari and Tom Yum fries. The sauce for the calamari was amazing and they use the rings which is much better than the strips other places use. It was cooked to perfection. The wings were good as well, they were a tad overcooked and came to the table not super hot, but they were very tasty. The fries could have been crisper for our taste but I also know not everyone enjoys crispy fries.

It was good. Fusion is always tricky. The fried potato appetizer was tasteless with no seasoning. The oysters were awesome. The duck was good but The sauce was on the sweet side and the greens and cabbage were not good, the duck was cooked correctly and the sautéed fat side was spot on. The veggie soup was decent, nothing to write home about and the whole tomatoes shouldn’t be there, the hazelnut touch was its saving grace. Thai tacos were killer. All in all the experience was good. Food decent. Waiter was in a hurry but was courteous. I’d probably go back to try the burger. Decor was main steam contemporary. Portions were great. Good date restaurant but a little loud inside.

I was impressed with the layout of the restaurant as it had a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The background music was enjoyable and the service could not have been better. Our waiter regularly checked on us and was pleasant to speak with. The plating of the food was done with precision and the tastes of our meals were out of this world. I recommend Blu Mist to all!

4.5 with no rounding. I actually pretty enjoy the food, they all looks good and taste good, but they are kinda small plate then I expect and the price can be expensive too. Good thing is they have a nice location and good service. Beef are pretty good but their pork chop overcook too much. And the sticky rice are kinda hard tho.

Eugene has many Thai food restaurants. Blu Mist has several fusion dishes but also “Thai Thai” dishes on their menu which are more traditional. We tried the salad rolls, yellow/red curry with egg noodles, and pad Thai. All were delicious and had impressive presentation. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. I’d recommend eating here for Thai and Thai fusion.

I thought this place was really great! The food was some of the best Thai that I have had in a long time. The duck dish was spot on with the duck cooking time. It wasn't chewy and it was delicious. It was a great combination of herbaceous flavor as well as the earthy sweetness of the red curry. The rice was perfectly made. It was full of flavor and delicious. The pad see ew was a bit sweet for my taste but the herbs (cilantro) in it helped level it out. The beef was cooked beautifully. I hate it when I get beef and it comes out grey. This was browned and beautiful. The noodles were great and not over done. The mussels were to die for. I loved the mixture between Thai flavors and the typical white wine flavors. It was very unique. The toasted baguettes were perfectly toasted too. The calamari was perfectly fried. It was seasoned well. The sauce was a bit salty, so go east on it!! It really was a great attribution to the calamari which could be on its own without any complaint. The service was excellent. The waiter was very aware of bringing water and making sure we had all the utensils we needed. The only thing bad i had to say was that the blueberry mojio wasn't as blue berry flavored as I would have hoped. I would have just thought it was a strong mojito if I didn't know. The Thai iced tea was the best I have tasted in the last 10 years.

Tried the belly bites, wings, and the cashew chicken. All of them were so good! The drinks were amazing. I dont remember the names, but they were all bourbon/whiskey, I definitely recommend it.

Good Thai food! Waiter took awhile to acknowledge us due to lack of communication from their new greeter in training that seated us. Totally understandable, things happen and not going to let that drop my rating.. The young man/waiter who served us was sincerely apologetic, attentive and was awesome the rest of the service. Will be back
