Delicious and great bar area - the prices are a bit steep and they have a limited appetizer menu. Other than that everything is always wonderful when we dine there read more

Visited the Blue Water Grille, Maumee, OH last night along with a married couple who live in Fremont, OH. I'm from New Jersey and this was my third visit to Mancy's Blue Water Grille in the past six months. The food and service has been OUTSTANDING! Each time I've visited, everything I've ordered has been FANTASTIC! The food is fresh, well prepared and well presented! The hors d'oeuvres, soups and fish/steak selections exceeded my expectations! The "service" at all levels has always been exemplary! On my recent visit on Saturday, 11 September 2021, we were extremely fortunate to have "Christine" as our server. I've traveled to 65 countries and have resided-in and/or traveled to all 50 States and have NEVER had a better "Server" at any restaurant then "Christine"! Truly the BEST-OF-THE BEST! She exhibited outstanding qualities in the performance of her duties; enthusiasm, initiative, responsiveness, attention to detail, thorough, outstanding communications skills and an infectious personality! If I had a restaurant, I would hire her immediately! read more

Amazing find here in Toledo. It was the perfect end to our vacation. Such a warm atmosphere for this large restaurant. This place is a must if you're in the area. Last, Andrew makes a great Pama-Tini at the bar. read more

Mancy's Bluewater Grille - Seafood Near Me - Maumee, Ohio

See all

Each of the Mancy's restaurants is awesome. For our anniversary dinner we chose Bluewater Grille. I ordered twin lobster tails with mashed potatoes. It was great and plentiful. Came with a Caesar salad and bread. Tasty. Be careful not to get filled on the bread. Because it is that good. For dessert we split a key lime pie. Great once again. read more

Mancy's Bluewater Grille - Twin lobster tails - Seafood Near Me - Maumee, Ohio

Had a gift card for $100. Ordered a filet and wife ordered a delmonico steak. Salad dressing was terrible, bread was a ball of dough, lobster bisque was a soup with very small portion of some sort of lobster in the middle. Steaks were okay but highly overpriced. Ended up having to fork over another $60 on top of gift card. Highly over rated restaurant. read more

It was okay. The service was okay. The steak was cooked well but you have to constantly ask for things from the server. The food isn't worth the price but maybe I just got the wrong thing. I ordered steak with baked potato with oysters. Like I said, it was okay. But food is overpriced. read more

Disappointed with BWG for a few reasons. First---our waitress disappeared a lot. After waiting for ten minutes to place a drink order, waited another ten mins to get it. Second---the food was ok. Wife liked her Chilean sea bass, I had the mixed grill. Salmon, shrimp and Halibut. Meh. Third---waitress didn't know her beer. The beer selection was horrible to begin with, but she identified a beer I hadn't heard of as a 'blonde ale'. It was very much NOT. didn't drink it, she asked how I liked it, said I didn't care for it. She charged me for it anyway. This feels like par for the course with the Mancy's brand anyway. Better dinners can be had for far less. I feel like the Mancy's restaurants are just trading on their name anymore anyway. read more

I would have given Mancy's 5 stars had it been based on food and service alone; the problem is the inconsistency when it comes to adult beverages. I tend to drink good bourbon; neat. When I get one glass with a nice two finger pour and another glass with barely one finger we have some issues (especially when you look at their pricing)! I'm not calling over management; however, at an establishment such as Mancy's all bartenders should be on the same page and pours should be the same regardless if they are one or two finger pours. I would be more than happy to discuss this inconsistency with management if they would like; keep in mind a normal bill would be $100 per person and I spent a little bit more than that!!! Cheers read more

Love Mancys still the Best restaurant in Toledo. Great atmosphere & delicious food. Definitely a 5

This is probably my favorite restaurant in the Toledo area. They serve the same steaks as they do at the original Mancy's Steak House, which is a huge plus. I love the seafood here as it it prepared carefully and it is always a fine bite of food. They have a raw bar and if you sit at the bar the raw oysters are really reasonable. My wife also loves this place even though she hates seafood. Even though it is a "seafood" restaurant there is plenty of other styles of food to make anyone happy. The staff has always been very attentive and friendly. We have been here several times and never had a poor experience. read more

To Ashley and the Chefs that were working this Tuesday night. Thank you so much for making my Cioppino the best I ever had. Just flew in from the west coast and was totally looking forward to eating here and they made my dinner a memorable experience. Absolutely phenomenal ambiance, service and food. read more

Mancy's Bluewater Grille - My Cioppino= yum! - Seafood Near Me - Maumee, Ohio

This was an easy 5 star for me. Nancy was our server, she was excellent. Food is very good. This was our first visit but we will definitely be back. Scallops were really good, lobster bisque and French onion soup were really good too. The rice in the scallops were probably the best surprise for me. I really enjoy their sister restaurants and this didn't disappoint! read more

I'm a high believer of consistency is key. I always get the Alaskan crab king & yesterday it was not the same at all. It was my mother in laws first time trying crab and it was completely disappointing & embarrassing! The crab legs came out in a soaking wet napkin instead of the usual warm steamed one. The crab legs didn't have the usual slit down the center for easier access to the meat once cracked. I sent back the crab legs to at least have them cut it a bit, once it came back everyone was about done with their meals. The crab meat came out shredded, cold & dry. On top of all that there were chunks of shell all through out the meat & at that point it wasn't even edible. read more

Our server Nick was great! He was patient while we ordered and checked with the chef to see if an off menu item could be made. The food was not great. Both my sides were cold. My Crab Cakes were warm, not hot. We didn't get bread until we asked. A side was missing from an entree, and we were charged extra for a salad that was suppose to come with the meal. At the price point of this resturant these things should not have happened. This resturant just misses the mark. read more

We had a wonderful meal. The restaurant is delightful. The food and service were outstanding. The Caesar salad was excellent. The salmon with the butternut ravioli was exemplary! I only wish there were more COVID precautions. The next time we travel through, we hope to be able to enjoy the outside seating. read more

Driving from Denver to Boston, we stayed in Maumee and, not wanting to go to a chain, chose Mancy's for dinner. We were delighted with our choice. The atmosphere is quiet, the decor lovely and the food of a very high quality. We had the oyster sampler and the tuna - both fresh and delicious. The wait staff were top notch as well. Worth a stop! read more

In my opinion, this is by far the BEST Seafood & Steak restaurant in the Toledo area (besides the original Mancy's)! I have visited this restaurant a few times a year for the past 11 years, & yet to be disappointed by the service or food! I think the only downside is that there isn't anything specific for customer attire. It's discouraging when you have a celebratory dinner or date night and people are seated by you that look as if they just left the gym! That is most definitely a turn off to such a classy, intimate place. However, we will continue dining here. read more

Food was pretty good. I got the BBQ Sea Bass and the portion size was tiny for $38. You would think more fish would be included at this price. The beet salad was good and a good amount of beets. I would go back for another entree. But hopefully the portion size of seafood is larger next time. read more

Very disappointed! Nothing tastes good here. My friend and I wanted to give this place a try because of a lot of positive reviews from yelp. I ordered the Ahi Tuna and she ordered the white fish. My tuna is $22 as lunch special, with only two pieces of just so so tuna, not any fresher than any other restaurant but the price is double. And the vegetables tastes AWFUL! It's very very salty with some wired sauce, overcooked, definitely the worst taste vegetable I have ever had in a fancy restaurant. Any side vegetable from fast food like Magic Wok is better. The rice is not good either, slightly undercooked. By the way, it's maybe Sushi rice but not "sticky rice" as listed on their menu. Obviously they know nothing about rice. My friend's fish is just so so too and her green bean is so chewy, she had to spit some out. Also, their bread is not good either. When we check out, I expressed my disappointment to the waitress. She talked to the manager and offered free dessert. Since I don't have room for dessert I just packed a piece of chocolate cake home. It's sold as $8 on their menu. After I got home, I tried the cake, oh my! It's not good either! The strawberry on it is not fresh, so I threw it away; the "cake" itself is all hard chocolate jam but no actual cake. Anyway, the chocolate cake from next door (Long Horn steak house) is much better than this, and it even come with a vanilla ice cream scoop and only costs $6.50. I am so surprised this restaurant can survive. Maybe because we really don't have much seafood restaurant available, sadly. The price is high, the food is not good. I don't think I will go back and give it another try. Luckily we went during lunch, so we didn't waste too much money for trying it. read more

Mancy's Bluewater Grille - Ahi Tuna lunch special $22. Worst tasting vegetables! - Seafood Near Me - Maumee, Ohio

We are frequent high end diners and big fans of the Mancy's family of restaurants, especially the original steakhouse. Bluewater would have been high on our list until recently. We visited last night and had a very mediocre experience. The service was fine, nothing special as we'd usually expect at this restaurant. The food was just OK. Can probably name 4-5 other Toledo area restaurants where you would find better preparations with seafood. Had 1 drink, nothing market priced, no appetizers or desserts...$130. Probably 25% higher than it should have been. We've traveled the world and been to some of the best Michelin starred restaurants...this is now truly very mediocre. read more

Exceptional experience. Server Nick was outstanding. Unobtrusive and yet attentive. I had the scallop entree and it was f'ing delicious. Perfectly executed temp with a rugged crispy maillard sear, yum. The risotto had at least a few ounces of lump crab meat in it and was performed "to the tooth". Bravissimo Mancy Family et al!!! read more

The service was good but seating is not so great. I like more private seating. I could not hear my fiancée talk we are so close to the people next to us. Very awkward. Food was just okay not spectacular. read more

Met up at Mancy's BG tonight with colleagues, I have to say my expectations were high and honestly as I write this review I look back at my meal thinking I was let down. I ordered a half dozen Beausoleil oysters that were great, super fresh and tasty but the greatness stopped there. For dinner I ordered the Del Monico cooked medium rare, baked potato and caesar salad, sadly the salad lacked much flavor and the croutons were hard as rocks. The Del Monico was cooked perfect but lacked flavor, it needed some seasoning and I left about half the steak on the plate. Can't really mess up a baked potato and it was pretty good. Ordered two Old Fashioned drinks and they were just ok also, the Stout beer was good as well. All in all, I wish I had ordered something other than the Del Monico steak, maybe the Crab legs would have been a better choice. read more

This was our first outing at MBG and we were looking forward to a good meal after reading the reviews. Unfortunately, just about every aspect of the meal disappointed. My margarita tasted like it was poured straight from a bottle of pre-made mix. The croutons on the salad were so hard it was like chewing rocks, and the bleu cheese dressing had little flavor. My New York Strip with mushrooms was blackened on the outside, and very rare on the inside. The mushrooms were just heated up, not sauteed. The waitress was adequate but not as attentive as she should be in a restaurant like this. She seemed like she would rather have been somewhere else. For a 72 dollar meal, I expected a lot more than what I received. We won't be going back. read more

As a self-proclaimed zealous bruncher, brunch on Sunday was a must for my parents and me this past weekend. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems/sounds like Mancy is Toledo's Cameron Mitchell and Bluewater Grille is Toledo's Ocean Club (plus the daily changing menu.) Anyways, I opted for the crab cake eggs benedict (2 crab cakes and poached eggs on top of an english muffin drenched with hollandaise sauce.) The eggs were poached to perfection and crab cakes were savory and not heavily breaded. The accompanying home fries were not too greasy nor too briny. My dad went with the grilled beef tenderloin eggs benedict which was basically the same dish. Having ordered them well, I found the tenderloin to be a tad chewy. My mom settled with the beef tenderloin tips which had a distinct taste to it, but still quite tasty. I searched the brunch menu for the stuffed french toast but to no avail. Either they change the menu weekly or have removed it completely. The ambiance was quite... blue. The restaurant was either suitably named or aptly decorated. Our hapa server was nice to look at, although service seemed to be quite rushed. The 5th star will (or will not) come once I sample their real menu, because we all know that one actually has to TRY in order to screw up eggs benedict. read more

Mancy's Bluewater Grille - Seafood Near Me - Maumee, Ohio

I will come here for the freshly baked, warm bread, scallops, and key lime pie alone. And I would make a meal out of it. And I would go alone. Maybe even grab a glass of white whine while I'm at it. I particularly love the ambiance. I feel very grown up at Mancy's sitting in a u-shaped booth that's slightly elevated. Even more sophistacated when the extremely knowledgable waitress comes around who knows the menu like the back of her hand and easily follows up with her recommendations. That's my kind of place! It is pretty pricey but it's worth it for that "special someone" aka: yourself. The bread, I wanted to take home. Scallops so perfectly cooked they just melt in your mouth. And the key lime pie? I can feel and taste the freshness of the key lime and the texture of that crust is just divine. Again, I will have to re-do that meal all over again. And this time? I won't bring anyone with me who I'd have to share anything with :). read more

Overpriced. Food not worth what you pay. Steak was charred and had little taste. You are paying for an atmosphere, but the atmosphere is lackluster. Avoid this place. Go across the parking lot to Arby's for a better meal. read more

Mancy's Bluewater Grille - Oyster bar - Seafood Near Me - Maumee, Ohio

A little disappointed. A tad overpriced for slightly above average food. Paid $96 for two entrees, an appetizer, and two drinks. Maybe I would feel better about the price if I were blown away by the food. I doubt I would return. read more

Went to BWG for the first time after reading the reviews and was IMPRESSED! The freshness of the fish, the service and the presentation of the plates was first class. Coming from the West Coast, I was even more impressed as the price fo the meal (which included drinks, 2 appetizers, 2 entrees, 2 coffees and 2 desserts was was 1/2 of what I would have expected to pay in Los Angeles. I will definately be back to BWG and try the rest of the Mancy restaurants as well. read more

I now regret every restaurant dinner I have had in Toledo not-at-Mancy's. Table service is engaged and friendly without being pretentious. Bombay Done the Right Way is as good a martini as I've had anywhere (blue cheese stuffed olives, omg.) Tonight's dinner of half a dozen Hood Canal (WA) oysters and an Ahi Tuna Niçoise Salad was about perfect. Tomorrow I plan to hunt down their original steakhouse even though it won't be 3 doors down from my hotel. Tiny things I would change (but that the market would almost certainly not support in Toledo:) 1 - Grass fed and finished beef. Nutritionally superior in every way, but I think an acquired taste (one well worth acquiring, mind you.) 2 - Some interesting domestic gin a step above Bombay Sapphire (Sapphire is good gin, but there are some really good domestics that blow it away (Anchor Junipero, Number 209 to name my two very favorite.) 3 - Domestic extra virgin olive oil. I don't know that this is not the case, only that olive oil is more likely to be actual olive oil the closer to home it is pressed. 4 - Kumamoto oysters. OK, this is really a stretch because the Eagle Creek from Hood Canal WA were just outstanding. Shout out to Hope for being such a delightful waiter. read more

I'm a big fan of the Mancy Family of restaurants and this one does not disappoint. I've eaten here numerous times with my family, and we always leave satisfied. The seafood is always cooked properly and is always amazing. I laugh when I hear people talk about eating at Red Lobster. SERIOUSLY!? This place exists in Maumee and you're eating Red Lobster?! Yeah, Mancy's isn't cheap, but neither is high quality food, a well trained & educated staff, or prime real estate! This place does it all well. Kudos Mancy's. read more

We dine at Bluewater every 2-3 months, mostly because we LOVE the atmosphere, however it seems like every time we go, there is usually 1 or 2 issues. This time was no exception. First, the positives. The service was perhaps the best we have had there. Both bar and dinner service was excellent. The atmosphere is also very chic, perhaps the best in Toledo. The problems are not huge, thus the 4 star ratings, yet we always seem to find we have some issues here. We sat by the window table, and on a 20 degree night, there was a noticeable draft. By the time dinner was over, all of us sitting along the wall were freezing. Some actually put coats on 3/4 of the way through dinner. Another disappointment was at the bar having a drink. We ordered a drink and requested Stoli Vanilla vodka. We were told the only vanilla vodka they had was Smirnoff. I was very disappointed that such a high end bar, with so many high end regular vodkas, had only a very low end vanilla. Finally, one in our party ordered a shrimp appetizer as a dinner, in a larger portion, it of few of us tasted to confirm, and it was simply not that good. Most of our good, while not spectacular, was certainly good, and well worth the price. We will try them again in another 2-3 months, and stay optimistic we can have an experience without the minor issues. read more

Upscale, and they do it well. Had oysters on the half shell calamari and blackened whitefish for entree. Service was good. Atmosphere was great, food was great. Expect to pay more and get more. Most entrees are $20 and up. Mixed drinks were good, beer selection decent. Good place to take a date to impress or a business client. Use discretion with kids; to respect others. read more

I'm thinking this is as good as it gets in Maumee, OH. Mancy's is like a upscale Bonefish Grille. It was really close to our hotel, so we actually came here twice during our short stay in Ohio....once with a friend and once on our own. We came here on a Saturday night at about 8:30PM and was told it would be about a 15-20 min. wait...no problem, as we are use to much longer waits and don't mind getting a drink at the bar. We took a seat at the bar and right away could tell that the service was going to be blah....we basically got our drinks by the time our pager went off to get seated...that bad! As soon as we were seated we were thrilled to find out we had a booth seat...we hardly ever get booths! They always start you off with bread, and we had to wait a little extra for ours as it was coming right out of the oven. Note to future diners....I would come here again and again and again just for the bread...yes, it is that good! We started off with the Singapore style Calamari and the Heirloom Tomato Salad for apps. Calamari was good, but the flavor was a little more subtle than what we expected. Heirloom Tomato Salad was excellent! For entrees, we ordered Delmonico Steak with Prawn Shrimp and the Pretzel Crusted Grouper. Hubby enjoyed his steak and shrimp. My Pretzel Crusted Grouper came with leek mashed potatoes and asparagus. The grouper would have been pretty bland on its own, so thank goodness it came along with this amazing mustard aioli sauce......soooooooo frickin good! We were way stuffed, but wanted to sample some desserts! Hubby ordered the Key Lime Pie and I ordered the Apple Brown Betty. I wasn't even hungry at this point, but with the help of my hubby I pushed through and finished my Betty! It was amazing, but I'm a sucker for anything with caramel and apples together. Come here if you are tired of the Outback's, Applebee's, and Olive Garden options. Don't come here if you don't want a dimly lit setting and $20-$35 entrees. This place offers a little bit of everything, but the main focus is the fresh fish flown in daily! Highlight's of this meal: BREAD....enough said! And the Pretzel Crusted Grouper with amazing sauce, and Apple Brown Betty were pretty good too ; ) read more

Holy cow is this place expensive for what you get. $9.00 Mac and cheese. Oh Truffle Mac n cheese. My $0.35 Kraft with a little cream added tastes better! And my friend had the wedge salad. $10 and it was crisp but tiny and blue cheese may have come from the cement factory across the street. Add to it my tuna roll which seemed fresh and tasty but cut so large I had to gag every time I attempted to eat one. Our server in the bar area was attentive and nice but failed to automatically keep the drinks filled. The bread was unique and fresh. I will pAss on this place next time I am in town. There are plenty of options nearby. $55 for two below average lunches. Bad choice. read more

Came here as my last formal dine-in in the city of Toledo. Have heard good reviews about it, always wanted to try, and it did not disappoint me. I order the sea-bass (chelian), which was pricy but very VERY good. I'd give it a 5 star if it wasn't for the house salad... Frankly, I was disappointed about the side dishes, even though the main dishes (fish, lobster...etc) were very good. The calamari appetizer is very good as well. With a special pecking duck sauce, I thought it was both innovative and tasty. Service is very good, good ambiance. I would definitely come back if I every come back to Toledo ~~~~ read more

Yum. I have to go to the Toledo area for business. I cant say that I've ever thought of Toledo as a culinary mecca.. so Mancys Bluewater is a pleasant surprise. It's a very cute seafood restaurant. The ambience is casual chic. We stopped in for lunch and I wasn't super hungry so I ordered the shrimp and crab chowder. It's too cute! They serve the soup in a mini cast iron soup crock with a lid. Great presentation for very tasty soup! I also got the spinach salad. My colleagues both got the same soup. One got the wedge, which was Fred Flintstone huge and the other a half salmon sandwich. The price was reasonable for lunch. I will definitely try dinner if I am ever there in the evening. As I understand it, there are several other Mancys restaurants... diff food types. I'll try those too. Service was just ok. Oddly enough the place was near empty.. I think it was just our table and one other read more

I tend to be a pretty healthy eater. This wouldn't be my typical first choice, but this was a customer dinner. Overall I was very satisfied with everything. Service was great, our waitress was very polite, knowledgable and helpful. Apps: Beef Carpocio; amazing. Great fried capers added such a nice texture to the thinly sliced beef. Calamari; perfectly fried and great sauce drizzled over them. Buffalo Shrimp; nice size shrimp, spicy and a really cool addition were the pickled carrots on the bottom, very cool. Bread: really nice herby bread. Soup: I had the Manhattan clam. Great flavor, with a bit of a kick. Nice pieces of clam in the soup. Dinner: I got the scallops from the grill, sauce on the side. Subed the mash potatoes for steamed asparagus. Everything was cool very well. Having everything pretty plane actually really tasted great. I squeezed some lemon over my veggies & scallops, they tasted so good! And it was not too heavy, which is what I wanted, for having a late meal. For the salad I had the vinegar cole slaw. Really tasty, maybe a beet or something in it. Desert: I had the cheesecake. Lovely taste, texture was very dense and creamy. read more

This is a great couples spot or good for an intimate evening for 2. The entrees off the menu are generally very good, quite often I get the special. We went for our anniversary. We like Mancy's steak house too (my personal favorite) but it was my wife's nite! read more

This is where you will find me at least once on every monthly trip to the Toledo area. The seafood is flown in daily to ensure it is always delicious! All the staff are warm, friendly, and ready to show you why this is a place they are proud of. I wouldn't suggest bringing the little ones to this restaurant, but I have seen the well behaved munchkins present. For the wine lovers, if you know your vinology, ask for the reserve list. I have found Rubicon Reserve 2005 there as well as some other treasures! Side note, the cheese plate appetizer will never fail you! read more
