   Amazing food and service. I put moderate noise level because we had a super loud table behind us but I don’t imagine it’s always that loud. Highly recommend! Best fried oysters I’ve had.

   Usually perfect and top restaurant for area. Special tonight was excellent taste, portion was small compared to other fish choices on the menu.

   Service was great. Food overall was good, but pork chop was ordered medium rare and came out well done (and dry). Disappointing since the rest of the party was done eating when I received replacement... But the replacement was perfect

   I had the grilled chicken. That entree should not have broth. The broth threw off the meal.

   Food is wonderful. Crab bisque is divine! Plating is gorgeous. We all loved our dinner.

   Our recent visit to Blue Water left us with mixed feelings and some notable disappointments. While there were highlights, the overall experience fell short of our expectations. Starting with the service, the server was polite but lacked enthusiasm, making it difficult to fully understand the menu and specials. Communication was a bit of a challenge, as we needed to ask about the special twice to get the details. For appetizers, we ordered the calamari. Although visually appealing, the flavor was somewhat bland. Thankfully, the accompanying sauces added a bit of lift, though we noticed the calamari was a bit too oily on the bottom. On a brighter note, my entrée of scallops was outstanding. They were perfectly cooked, fresh, and bursting with flavor. I would return for this dish alone, especially when paired with the Kunde Sauvignon Blanc from Sonoma, which complemented the scallops beautifully and was reasonably priced. My wife, however, was less fortunate with her choice of the evening’s special: grilled swordfish with lump crab, priced at around $55. Unfortunately, it was overly salty, with the fish itself being tough and lacking in distinct flavors—a significant letdown for what should have been the highlight of the meal. Overall, while there were a few positives, the evening ultimately didn’t meet our expectations. We love to invest in quality dining experiences, but Blue Water didn’t deliver the value or satisfaction we had hoped for. Unfortunately, we will be crossing it off our list for now. Best of luck to the team as they work to elevate the experience for future diners.
