The server John was awesome. Bluewater grill food. Salmon was great. Bouillabaisse was very poor. Not much shell fish for $36. Will not return read more

We dined at Bluewater grill on 5/11/26 at noon. Two in my party had lobster rolls and I had the crab BLT. The food was excellent and the service was good. The reason I am giving three stars is because the cocktails were awful. We ordered a Mai Tai and two Coconut Margaritas. The bill for those three drinks was $48.00. The Mai Tai was incredibly sour and the margaritas tasted like cheap tequila. No coconut taste whatsoever. I should have sent them back but were pressed for time so I just let it go. I would go back for the food but I would not order anything from the bar. read more

One of my favorite places for seafood! From appetizers to the main entree to dessert, everything is spot on. Fantastic service, from the hostess to the superb server. Presentation of food, to each being timed perfectly before coming out. Some places are good at this but Bluewater is exceptional. Great place for lunch, happy hour, dinner or any special occasion. I always look forward to coming here & cannot wait to have another great reason to return to a happily satisfying meal @ Bluewater! read more

Had Dinner last night and it was really good. We had the steamed shellfish and shrimp cocktail. I was a little disappointed by the shrimp cocktail.. The steamed shellfish was really good . For entrees we had the Ipswich fried clams and they did not disappoint. I am a New England girl who grew up near the ocean and buying seafood from the docks. This place reminds me of all the restaurants In Narragansett Ri amazing !!!! read more

I always enjoy going to Bluewater Grill! Even when I have to dine alone, I'm always treated well! Love my dirty martini with cream cheese stuffed olives! read more

Beautiful restaurant! Service was great even though it was lunch and our server was very busy. We enjoyed the delicious sourdough bread served to the table. We both had tuna salad but I didn't get the tuna melt and enjoyed mine very much The coleslaw was very good as well. My husband had the tuna melt but didn't care for it. Definitely would consider coming back for the Halibut or the Swordfish. read more

Went on a weekend during happy hour. It was excellent food, but a bit pricey, but hey that's sushi!

Bluewater Grill Seafood Restaurant & Sushi Bar - Clambake - Seafood Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

We've dined here before a couple times so I'm surprised that I haven't already done a review. Today I want to talk about their Lobster Roll Kit. I decided that for my birthday this year, I really wanted something special and since lobster is one of my favorite things (and probably one of the things I miss most now that I don't live in New England.). I did a little research and liked the price at Bluewater, so I gave them a quick call to see if I needed to pre-order. I was told it is a good idea to call ahead just so they can start getting it ready, and because there are a couple questions thet will ask - such as if you want the rolls toasted ahead of time or not. I ordered the "for 4" kit even though there are only 2 of us because it will not go to waste! But a kit for 2 would have been plenty for one meal. (Now we've got enough to have it again tomorrow and we're not mad about that). The kit included: 4 individual baggies with the dressed lobster meat (and they didn't scrimp), 4 rolls, a big tub of clam chowder, 4 bags of oyster crackers, a big tub of cole slaw, 4 grilled lemons and 4 pickle spears. Everything was absolutely delicious! The cole slaw is simple but crispy and fresh. The chowder (chowdah to those of us from Boston) was probably one of the tastiest I've ever had. The rolls were soft and I just spread some butter on and griddled them on a cast iron pan - came out perfect! And the lobster! Absolutely delicious - fresh, flavorful, good amount of mayo, and nice size pieces - perfect! Highly recommend! read more

DELICIOUS AND FRESH FISH! I did the lobster dinner last week. The sampler was very tasty! Scallop, an oyster and a shrimp.

Great service and food. Best nice dining and great seafood. I has the sea scallops which was fresh and presented with class. read more

Our food, service and ambiance was top notch and we felt so welcome and cared for. They even gave our grandson some milk for the road. I didn't get the lady's name that was so accommodating. We had my sister and brother-in-law in from out of town and this is the place and location they choose to catch up or celebrate. We will be coming back, next time we want good seafood. read more

No No nothing I couldn't cook at home. Blah atmosphere. Average price for average meal. Not outstanding, nothing bad. . read more

Great seafood and good price point. Two of us ordered walleye , one trout, and one lobster roll. Everything was fresh and delicious. Bread is included also. Nice sourdough. Our server John was excellent. He checked on us but didn't overdo it. Our water glasses were always refilled. We travel from North Scottsdale to get there. Not a short ride. We always take our out of town family guests there. read more

Had a very fulfilling lunch at Bluewater Grill on Bethany Home. It was just past the lunch crowd but always busy. I had the Sand Dabs and my husband had the Baramundi (on my recommendation). It was wonderful & the service was excellent. It's a well worth it pretty penny. read more

I had an amazing time at Blue Water Grill! Food was delicious. We got the gemelli pasta and the lobster roll. For appetizers, we got the shrimp and potato scallops. Everything was DELICIOUS!! The mojito was very refreshing as well. And to top it off, our server was amazing!! She was so kind and on top of it. Great parking options and ambiance too. We will be back!! read more

My wife and I been eating here for a few years, Lately we have seen a noticeable decline in quality, and smaller portions. Water was brought to us in tiny glasses, with no ice and no lemons. After requesting larger glasses with ice, we were provided with them, but we should not have had to ask. We were planning to order iced tea, but when we saw how small the water glasses were, we assumed the iced tea glasses would also be very small, and it is often difficult to get refills. Although the food is good, the portions are very small. It would have been better if they had maintained their quality and just raised their prices more instead. read more

Everything was great!!!! From the ambiance to the servers and the food was perfect. Pricy but perfect.

Went for a friends birthday and had an amazing time. We each ordered something different and tried a little of everything. My shrimp pasta was amazing and I would definitely go back read more

Bluewater Grill Seafood Restaurant & Sushi Bar - Crab cakes - Seafood Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

They're back..... this update is only for those former New Englanders (or those who fell in love with fried clams while visiting). Blue water Grill serves real, whole bellied fried clams (not those strip things that taste like chewy elastic bands!) They are lightly battered, served with a tasty fresh coleslaw and a mound of French fries. While I have to say there are a lot of things on the menu that I like, getting my monthly clam "fix" is something I look forward to and any excuse to go there will do. Service is always fast and friendly, the restaurant is always immaculate and the prices are reasonable. The more I think about those clams, the more I think I need to "forget" to thaw something out to make for dinner tonight read more

The quality of the food was good but I did find a shell in my crab cakes. The crab cakes were so small and at the price it was not a good deal. It seems like they have really cut back their portions but not the price. read more

This restaurant is significantly better than its rating indicates. I've eaten here many times and despite being in a landlocked state like AZ the fish is consistently excellent! Service, preparation, even the warm sourdough bread and butter you are given are all top notch. My strongest recommendation is extended to this restaurant. read more

So, hubby and I wanted seafood, so I hopped on Yelp and searched for Seafood. I remember when this place was at its old location, and I was not impressed. Seeing that it moved, I decided to give it a try. I'm so happy we did. The inside was clean and modern, which was very refreshing. We were greeted and seated quickly, and we arrived at about 5:15 p.m. We were greeted by our waitress who reminded us of your mother (in a very good way) she was engaging and friendly. We ordered our drinks and appetizers. She made some recommendations for dinner, and surprisingly, I was going to choose one of them. The appetizer was fried calamari, they were excellent, and the Sweet chili sauce was odd. We ordered our salads, and got to love a good wedge salad!! YUM Dinner, I ordered the Sandabs, and hubby ordered the Salmon. The Sandabs were EXCELLENT the only issue was the Scalloped potatoes they were not good, and the potatoes themselves were tender, but the cheese they used was WAY too pungent and was not good. This was the only issue for dinner. We will be back, just hope they fix the scalloped potatoes. read more

Another delicious celebration at Bluewater Grill. If you are an oyster on a half shell lover, their Blu Point oysters are always fresh and juicy. Even though they are usually smaller, their seasonal oysters from the west coast are special! Taste the sea. As for Tabasco to eat with lemon juice, cocktail sauce and horseradish. I am not a fan of their Thai vinaigrette. Their mussels are the freshest and with the broth and chorizo, wow! Eat it with their hot sourdough bread. One of my favorite places to have mussels! Try their sautéed spinach. Ask for them to add balsamic and garlic. read more

Super-professional service - total kudos. Great seafood. Loved the chowders. Upscale atmosphere was just right to celebrate our shared wedding anniversaries. In this case, we got what we paid for, and left as satisfied customers. Parking was easy and free. read more

Happy hour on a Saturday was fantastic! What we had: Yellowtail Nigiri (I could eat 20 more right now) Spice Yellowtail roll (yum) Blue Water roll (would probably skip next time) Raw oysters (actually so very delicious) Fries (not amazing but 7.5/10) We had their happy hour vodka martinis, with New Amsterdam, and they were good but Kettle is better of course. Service was top notch- the bar was almost empty upon arrival and packed with a vibe on our way out. Will definitely be back for happy hour & probably give dinner a try at some point too! read more

I'm from the North Shore of Massachusetts,been in Az.for 19 years.We found Fried Clams at Taylor's Chowder House,they were passable,but they closed down and I had no fried clam places to try.I checked all the sea food places,no one had clams.Then I looked up Blue water Grill and Fried Clams were on the menu. Made the hour long trip to the Grill and ordered the Fried Clams,and I must say they were the best I've had in a long time.(I would say as good as any I had up on the North Shore of Massachusetts the place where Fried Clams were invented.) Anyone who wants great fried clams this is the place to go to.My wife had the Fried Fish and she said it was a great meal.I will be back.Natalalie was very nice,and I met Jeff the manager,who also is from the North Shore.(He knows his Clams) read more

Great atmosphere and service throughout, not overly busy on a weekend lunch/happy hour! Started with the captains Mai Tai which was refreshing on a 111 degree day, my partner had the American mule and really enjoyed it. Complimentary sour dough bread was fantastic! (Frozen butter balls, let them thaw then they could be useful) clam chowder was 100 percent the best I have ever had! Nice chunks of clams and potatoes and seasoned very nicely! Blue water roll was excellent, fish tacos were two huge tacos I just had a bite (not my favorite but I'm not a huge fish taco person) so I only had a bite. Firecracker shrimp was good but with a firecracker in a name I thought of some heat or spice, not so much but still tasty. Everyone at the table enjoyed it and our server was fantastic! Everyone in the restaurant worked in harmony with one another. We are definitely going to be back! read more

Food, service and ambience. All. I love this restaurant. Next time I go I'm going to try the fresh Sushi bar and have some Saki too.

I used their Yelp deal for $5 off a signature cocktail and the Captain's Mai Tai didn't disappoint. The food was wonderful and we tried a few things. They had plenty of options on the menu for everything seafood it seemed. Our server was very attentive but gave us time to decide and enjoy. The cedar plank salmon was cooked perfectly and the only thing wrong with the crab cakes was that they made me want more. I'd come back to try more of the menu if I was craving seafood for sure. They are a bit pricy but it's not the worst. read more

I found my new favorite seafood restaurant. We we're looking to expand our seafood and fish experiences. Chose Bluewater Grill because of the vast options on their menu. Date night with hubby started with our 5:45 reservation. Easy online booking through Yelp. Arrived a few minutes early and we were seated immediately. If I could have the same server everywhere I eat, it would be Miles. He was absolutely amazing. He had amazing recommendations. Vast knowledge of everything I asked about. And was spot on with suggestions. He took the time to hear what we liked and didn't like. I had the Cajun grilled Australian Barramundi. Divine. I loved the mango topping with crab and arugula. Hubby had the black cod. Delicious! I know where I will be coming again! Thank You for an awesome date night! read more

Ok. It is now officially my favorite seafood place in Phoenix.we were in the area for an event and found Blue water was nearby. Salmon oysters octopus cole slaw and surprisingly the brick chicken.. They sent out a birthday sundae too. Good service.nice people. read more

I'm so happy I chose to try this place out! I came here on a Monday night and sat at the bar. There were several other people at the bar as well and they all seemed to be regulars and that's usually a good sign IMO. The bartenders were awesome! Very quick and friendly. I asked the bartender Miles which dish he would recommend and he directed me to the snapper with artichokes and risotto and it was a great suggestion! The fish was perfectly cooked, light and flaky. The artichokes had a really lightly crispy crust on them and the risotto had a great creamy texture. The only thing I would change is to cut back on the salt in the risotto a little but other than that, it was a perfect dish. They had the windows open so there was a bit of a fresh breeze coming in. Overall it was a nice little evening. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try. read more

Had the seafood platter. The Absolute worst dish I've ever had any place. The shrimp was hard as a rock. They give you a whole lot of french fries but not a whole lot of fish. I also had the calamari appetizer once again the worst. Never go back there. read more

Went to celebrate a recent bonus. Had steamed clams not pictured because we were starving. I had the Barmundi which was amazing and the daughter had the Mahi Mahi. All the food was great and the service amazing. The way they've fixed this location so it wasn't really hot and so much quieter than the previous restaurant that was in this space. Our server David was great. read more
