    Book a reservation to celebrate Valentines together , and only one word describes the whole experience. Phenomenal. We started off we our cocktails which were crafted to perfection, my love ordered a limoncello drop martini and I ordered a pineapple Moscow mule the taste of our drinks were sublime. Then we both shared a handcrafted Cesar salad, you can tell everything was made about the salad was in house made and the cuts of romaine was fresh and crisp. For our main course we both decided on something new to our pallets , she had a salmon Favalli and I had to try the squid ink spaghetti, both dishes were amazing the sauce in the salmon dish had a very great note to it , and the squid ink spaghetti in the mushroom sauce was absolutely divine , to finish off our night we share a fresh cannoli and it was very delicious, 12/10 will come back again , I want to try the veal or maybe the filet mignon and she was thinking the gnocchi. Thank you to the staff for bringing the whole night together.

    This was our first time at Bolero for a pre-Valentine meal. The experience was excellent! We ordered the Gambas Al Ajillo and their Tosta De Raso De Toro for our tapas and the small order of the Paella De Bolero. Oh my! The presentation and food taste were exquisite! Service was excellent! We will be back with friends to enjoy more of your offerings!

    My boyfriend and I celebrated an early Valentine's dinner here last night. Neither of us had been before so we were both pretty excited. Our server Andy was amazing! He was so knowledgeable about the ingredients on the menu, how the food is prepared and plated, and even where the food was sourced from. We ordered our drinks, the Water Lily and the Lazy Haze (both delicious) and he gave us a little description and background on what we were ordering, which was a really nice touch. He recommended the focaccia and whipped ricotta as our appetizer. It was SO good. For entrees, I got the swordfish and my boyfriend got the chicken. Once again, Andy was able to give us details about where the food was sourced from and how it is prepared which was nice because I was able to modify my swordfish more to my liking. Everything was delicious and beautifully plated. Although we wanted to, we were both too full to order dessert but I'm sure they are just as delicious as the drinks, apps, and entrees were. The restrooms were so clean and the women's even has ceiling to floor doors with no gaps, which is such a bonus! The only downside was we sat near the kitchen, which was fine, but we did overhear the GM reprimanding one of the staff members. We couldn't hear what the staff was saying, but we did hear the GM say sarcastically, "Yeah okay... I'm only the GM of a restaurant, that's all". Was very off-putting to hear a manager talk to the employees like that. The staff all did a great job and THEY are the reason we will be coming back. Next time we're here, we'll ask for Andy. His quality of service, knowledge, and recommendations made the night even better.

    My husband and I love Bluewater Grill for various reasons, the main ones being that it reminds us of the excellent seafood of San Francisco where we both lived in prior decades, and the other being the quality of their cuisine, the serious and wholehearted restaurant effort above and beyond the average restaurant out there, and all of this for a very reasonable price. Every time and every dish we have experienced at Bluewater Grill has not disappointed. A first class dining experience for an appropriate price. We recommend this wonderful restaurant to anyone looking for fresh and delicious seafood.
