Had a wonderful anniversary dinner right by the water. Not only were the views beautiful but the food and service were also amazing. We had the crab legs, which were very well served along with potatoes and asparagus. The shrimp and scallop pesto pasta. So yummy!! Service was great, our waitress went over the menu and wine list with us. Such a perfect dinner. Highly recommend.

lovely beach front restaurant. A surefire tourist spot with tourist prices. Good service and food. The smell of creosote is a bit much. But fantastic view.

The waiter suggested the clam chowder and....she was right - it was really good! A top ten chowder from all our travels. We agreed it was the best thing we ordered. The fish and chips was good, the coleslaw perfect consistency and no eye rolling when asking for more tartar. My wife thought the fries were perfect - crispy on the outside and still soft on the inside. The lobster roll wasn't the best of all time (comparing to wharf in SF and Pikes Place, etc. which is a super high bar), but still very satisfying and probably the best on the island. Don't be afraid of it if you like lobster rolls, it's good. We ordered the buffalo milk jug, which was an interesting idea but pretty watered down (couldn't taste or feel any alcohol in there), kinda just tasted like milk blended with ice and wasn't worth it. Especially since it actually doesn't have any REAL buffalo milk so it's not very unique. That said, dinner next to the ocean at sunset (and covid safe!) for 3 people was very reasonably priced compared to similar mainland restaurants in Long Beach and our entrees came out very fast.

Recently I took a group of 5 people to Catalina Island for the day. There are many places to choose from on the island to eat, but we had a taste for seafood and Bluewater looked like the best place, in the area we were in. In short it was a great experience. Food was very good, atmosphere was excellent and the service was good for the time of the day (very busy when we were there, so it was slow). You are right on harbor, fresh breeze and air hitting you in the face while you enjoy your meal. Our bill was $600, ordered apps, drinks and the fresh catch of the day, so not overly pricey given what we ordered. I ordered the lobster roll and it was better than the one I reviewed in Maine this past June!

First the service was great. Staff is friendly and very helpful with items on the menu. For starters, I wish they had better mixed drinks options so I had to opt to a Riesling however I also have expectations on how sweet it would be. It just didn't do it for me. We had the crab cakes which I forgot to take a picture. You get two crab cakes and it was good. We also got the crab artichoke dip. That was good. Now main dishes, my oldest son ordered the fisherman platter and he ranked it 8 out of ten. My youngest son ordered the steak and lobster and he was disappointed. The lobster wasn't what he was hoping for. He said the lobster was a 6 out of ten but the steak was delicious. My husband ordered two dishes but shared with each other. I ordered the walnut crusted halibut and OMG. It was YUMMY! My husband ordered the filet mignon and I was disappointed. It was very chewy. I feel it should melt in your mouth. This steak wasn't tender. The scallop potatoes was really good and my son had the clam chowder and said it was good.

The full rack rib is good, the halibut is tasty. The paella, the fried calamari and the cioppino is ok. Btw, the water cost 1.25 dollars here.

Mostly deducted 1 star due to slower than expected service. The food was pretty good, fish tacos were good (average but not the best I’ve had). Their swordfish was delicious and their scallops were fresh and very uniquely dressed. A little cramped seating but by the water and pretty on a beautiful day. Worth a visit !
