About Blue Water Bay

Blue Water Bay offers excellent seafood, steaks, and potatoes in a comfortable atmosphere. The fried shrimp is fresh, and the Sour Chocolate Pie is a hit. The restaurant hosts singing nights, and the service personnel are usually prompt and friendly, making it a local gem worth visiting, even if one lives far away. While prices are a bit high, the quality and portions make it worth it. Recently, the Sunday brunch menu featured smaller (but reasonable sized) seafood offerings, with the Fried Shrimp and Grilled Shrimp on Grits receiving praise for being very good and reasonably priced. The atmosphere is great, not loud or overcrowded, and the stained glass throughout adds charm. However, some guests have noted that service can be exceptionally slow, with dishes taking up to 75 minutes after ordering, so it's best to plan to sit a spell. Don’t miss out on the father's day buffet for an unforgettable dining experience.

Food quality has declined and prices have risen. Servers are outstanding as always.

Terrible food terrible service, waited over an hour to get a plate of gator tail and a plate of pasta never got it just decided to pay for what I did receive and leave never will be back there the food I did get tasted like it was 5 days old

VERY disappointing. we have been there many times and it is hit or miss. the big problem is that there is only one other restaurant in town. while the price is high, the service is slow, the quality of the food is horrible!!!! they could not even make a plate of linguine, add a bit of partisan cheese and the sliced chicken. that is to much for them. the pasta was extremely oily, stuck together (like it was made a few days ago), a lot of spices added even though I asked...read full review
