The staff will take your order and assign you a table, so do not grab a table without their approval. The seafood all taste fresh. We love the halibut plate with lemon garlic butter. For the fish and chips, the red snapper with panko crust is our family favorite over the beer battered. Tip: we went at 2:30p thinking it is after the lunch rush, but the line was out the door on Sunday. We will stick to 15mins before they open.

I picked my folks up from the airport after their trip to Alaska and my mom was hangry because she…read morehad not eaten since breakfast. I asked her what she wanted and she said, "seafood", so I immediately thought of Blue Water, and we drove right over. We parked at a metered spot nearby & walked in at 5pm. Do note that there is no dedicated parking for Blue Water, so at busy times it may be tricky to find a spot, but we had no trouble today. In the main dining ordering area & on the side patio, there were a few tables that were occupied, but there was no ordering line. All of us wanted shrimp today apparently, so my dad and I both got a shrimp taco with lemon garlic butter & my hungry mom got the shrimp platter also with lemon garlic butter. The platter came with 8 shrimp, jasmine rice, and a lovely, fresh garden salad. The server who took our order and brought it out to us was very helpful & nice. They have a ton of fresh seafood on offer though so if shrimp is not your thing, there will likely be another delightful offering from the sea that will suit your fancy. We sat in the side patio area and it was very pleasant. We enjoyed our experience this evening very much! The tacos were big and had more than 5 shrimp in them, plus cabbage, pico, cheddar cheese & white sauce. One taco was pretty decently sized. If I'd been hungrier, two tacos would've been perfect, but today, I was happy with one taco. Yum! Mom enjoyed her platter. It was beautifully prepared. Blue Water also has a decent soft drink selection and beers and wine, but we all just had their water and it was very refreshing! :) By the time we left at 5:45, a line was forming out the door, so we really came out at a good time. Peace!

Their hot bar, deli, and juice bar are honestly underrated--great if you just want to grab a quick, healthy meal. The quality of the food really stands out--fresh produce, good meats, and a lot of organic options. It kind of feels like a mix between Whole Foods and a local market, but a little more laid-back. Only downside is the prices are on the higher side, but you're definitely paying for quality. Overall, it's a go-to spot if you want good food and a clean, relaxed shopping experience.

It's a long-standing, family-owned restaurant (a San Diego favorite since 1961) with that old-school red-linen vibe, warm lighting, and a cozy patio that feels perfect for a date night or a celebratory dinner. We started strong with two martinis, then shared shrimp bisque, garlic bread, and a caprese salad. Every course came out hot, paced perfectly, and plated like they actually care. I ordered the cannelloni (comforty, rich, and exactly what I wanted), and he had the linguine with clams fresh, briny, and generous on the seafood. We finished with a double espresso, which was the perfect clean little mic-drop at the end. Service was impeccable attentive without hovering, friendly without being fake. The whole experience was warm but not stiff and everything was on point from timing to ambiance. If you want traditional Italian done right in Old Town, this place absolutely delivers.
