| - We tried the Bluewater Grill in Phoenix recently for dinner. While we had driven by this restaurant several times, we just had not stopped in to give it a try. This time we did ... and we are glad we did.
Large establishment with a variety of seating options. We opted for a booth on the edge of the bar area. Overall, service was good but a little slow on the uptake (slow with respect to menus, waters & drink orders / otherwise just fine). We shared everything and ended up ordering more than we needed .... but enjoyed what we could finished.
Our meal started with wine and sparkling water. For me a Cabernet, Stonestreet - Alexander Valley, CA and for my lady a Chardonnay, Trefethen, from Napa. We also started with a Blue Water Roll along with a Beet & Spinach Salad. The sushi consisted of seared ahi, tempura shrimp, krab mix and avocado which was pretty good in my opinion. My partner liked the beet salad which included oranges, pistachios, pickled fennel and smoked goat cheese. I don't appreciate beets therefore my opinion does not count. We finished with Grilled Halibut and the Maryland Style Crab cakes. The Pan-seared halibut was served with a parmesan polenta cake, oyster mushrooms, spinach and oven dried tomato vinaigrette - truly marvelous.
This was a solid dining experience. Give this place a try
