The food was great. Service was on point. The atmosphere was great outside. The inside was not my favorite. It felt like a bar. But the outside and the garden is on another level compared to the indoors.
The seating by the water is a bit crooked so you might be uncomfortable but other then that it’s great.
If you are local it’s a great place to come by to enjoy.
They don’t have espresso though ☕️:(
What a great place for a good time out on the town. We love going here on a sunny summer afternoon. It’s been a great spot for date night or dinner with the family. Enjoy dining inside or sitting outside on the deck. They have 3 by the way. It just feels like summer there. After getting one of their signature cocktails you can delight in a northwest based menu of fresh seafood. Need something hardier then get the ribeye. If you’re in the Leschi neighborhood on lake Washington, then definitely stop in for at least a drink and take in the view.

Needed a place to go for Thanksgiving dinner. Bluwater Bistro in Leschi is known for their Easter brunches so I thought it was a solid bet.
Glad I called for a reservation even if it was only 30 minutes in advance because when we got there the line was outside the door and the restaurant was packed… we were seated immediately.
We were offered a three-course dinner for $59. Prime rib, or turkey, with soup or salad to open the meal and pumpkin pie to wrap it up. There was a menu with other items, but it was Thanksgiving so we went with the prix fixe menu.
I had the butternut squash soup and both of us agreed: it was amazing and flavor and really loved the rustic texture. The salad was fresh with the right combination of nuts and dried cranberries, and thankfully not oversaturated with dressing.
I had the prime rib was nice and thick but found it was on the dry side. Thankfully, there was au jus and an amazing horseradish sauce. Friend had his turkey and pronounced it was good.
Honestly, didn’t love the pumpkin pie. But the Pinot Noir we had was excellent. $15/glass.
The best part was the service. Between Alexia, the legendary bartender, and Zach our server, we were set. In fact, one of the things we noticed was how swift and attentive the service was, despite the restaurant being packed — there is no shortage of servers who busily went around.
Also, thankfully, they turned on the Seahawks game when it started at 5 o’clock.
The food here is great. The atmosphere is amazing. Lots of parking. Clean restaurant all around one of our favorite date night spots.
I can't say enough about this place. Drinks are strong 💪 😉. Honestly great prices for the food. On the water, quiet place. Give it a go!
Incredible spot in Leschi. Right on Lake Washington, great food, decently priced, and a fun atmosphere. You could come for the game, date night or for a nice dinner with family / friends. Their holiday three course meals are also bomb
Solid location, decent food, passable drinks, friendly but slow service. I appreciate the fully open windows and ample outdoor seating, some with water views. The ceviche makes for a delightful appetizer, especially on a warm day. The cocktails lean a bit too sweet for my taste. The restroom could use some improvement, but overall it's a middling experience.
Update 8/13/2023: Visited for drinks and a snack today. The witty and delightful sense of humor from our server truly enhanced our evening. The food has improved, and the cocktails are enjoyable. I tried the Manny cocktail, and they were accommodating in adding an orange twist upon my request. Check them out if you are I'm the area.
casual bistro, great friendly bartenders. Had a decent local beer, nice clam chowder with generous helpings of clams (a little underseasoned) and an underwhelming rock bass with a herb crust. Didnt like the crust although the fish was firm and fresh tasting
Went there for their July 4th dinner and the crab was splendid. Nice potato salad and a grilled sweet corn came with the perfectly cooked crab
Loved it! My meatloaf and mashed potatoes was just what I was craving! I'm going to try to visit again during daylight hours for a better view of the lake.
Great service. Ordered the fish and chips and a cup of chowder and enjoyed the view on a beautiful sunny day.
We were a large party and the service was really good. The food all came out about the same time. Everything looked good. My meal was delicious! I couldn't finish it. We went for brunch and they were very attentive to us, especially our water glasses and coffee cups. Would return!
This is my second time here and this place is nice with a great ambience and right by the lake. The service is good and the food is pretty great as well. I once came before for breakfast which was okay but this time I came for some dinner and drinks. I liked the latter. We took a Mediterranean platter which was pretty good with a great portion size. My wife took a mail Tai and I had some beer and an old fashion . We also got the rock fish which was pretty tasty. The rock fish came with some beans and potatoes which complimented the fish very well. They have tons of parking and u can always take a stroll to the lake right outside.
Wonderful location for a lake view brunch: quiet, beautiful, wonderful food and service. King salmon scramble mixed with asparagus are so delicious. Easy parking, a bit tricky to drive up here though
Great local spot! Got a nice table with a view of the water. Fair prices and good food. Will be back!
