    One of the worst dinners we’ve had in a long time. We came for my wife’s birthday, noted it on our reservation, and they never even acknowledged it. Service was slow and inattentive - took over 15 minutes just to get drinks. Food was terrible and overpriced, we had Ahi Tuna and ribs - quality was like a bad chain restaurant but twice the price. Don’t make the same mistake I did, choose another one of the far better options in Coronado or San Diego - especially if it is a special occasion.

    We had a wonderful experience here. We started at the bar with drinks and appetizers. I cannot remember his name but the bartender was welcoming and energetic. Then we were seated the served by Logan. I have food sensitivities and he was happy to accommodate them. I had the salmon and asparagus and it was the best salmon I ever had! My husband had scallops and risotto and he said it was fantastic! We will definitely return!

    Swordfish was very good. Seared Ahi was tough to cut through with my knife and was served cold. Great table and server.

    We enjoyed our experience at Blue water Grill. My friends that came from out of town was very impressed with the entrees we had. We tried out the grilled scallop's appetizers and the calamari. For the main entrees we had the salmon dish, mahi mahi and the steak dishes. ALL the delicious! For dessert we had the key lime pie and mud pie a must have after eating a seafood dish.
