Raw Bar at the Bluewater Grille

Went to the Raw bar for a few appetizers and a drink. We sat outside. Dress is casual. Bartenders were great and interacted with the customers. Food was good and came out timely. Bay breeze was really good, no skimping in the rum!

Waterfront harbor views with beautiful patio and a women singing relatable music. Lobster Mac and cheese was to die for. One of the best plates I have had yet.

My wife and I stopped for an Appetizer and drinks and to hear the music. The music was great, the rest not so much! We ordered our drinks and a stuffed scallop. We were served this imaginary stuffed scallop that had zero taste to it and no scallops in it, just some very bad gooey stuffing that had been microwaved and served in a cardboard carrier with plastic forks, all for $14. This is not the Raw Bar that I once knew. Bobby, you need to do some management at this place. Oh yes, make sure the staff cleans the tables before customers are seated.

Went on a Friday night. Sat outside on the deck overlooking the ferries and harbor. Some of the more well known local places were packed so we took a flyer on this place. The staff was hustling. They had a good local guitar playing singer, from Tewksbury, who wasn't bad and provided nice music while we enjoyed our drinks and munched on a stuffed quahog, a stuffed scallop, and steamers (large portion!). The food was good, good portions and not at an arm & a leg price. Service by John, who doubles as the manager, was timely. The atmosphere thanks to the guitar player and views of the port was perfect. I hate to wait for a long time for a dinner in a hot, crowded and loud restaurant...Raw Bar was the perfect antidote. Give it a shot, I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Hilariously slow service, warm oysters, dirty beer cans, and eye-popping prices. It was not busy and they were quite well-staffed.The ($36) 6oz cold lobster roll was admittedly a lot of lobster, but was overcooked and scooped onto a soggy, un-toasted hotdog bun, straight from the bag and mostly unseparated.

The lobster roll was not anythingspectacular. It contained pieces of cooked lobster placed on a toasted hotdog roll for $33. No dressing. No flavor.Garlic parm wings were $1 each and were overly dressed.Mahi mahi sandwich was ok. Nothing spectacular either. The fish was well flavored however. The bread should have been toasted.Kids devoured their food (hotdog and chicken tenders with fries).Clam and lobster chowders were ok.Presentation was casual and expensive...The waitstaff were very attentive and professional. Our waitress was very sweet.

Kid-friendliness: Kid options were ok.

Simply awful. The setting is pretty enough, on Ocean Street across from Hyannis Harbor. But at lunchtime in July on a sunny day, the place was nearly empty and we quickly learned why. We ordered a mix of lobster rolls, salads, onion rings and oysters as well as bloody marys. Everything -- literally everything -- was served in plastic or paper. The food itself looked and was unappetizing. The chowder was mostly potatoes, the salads were made of wilted greens served with foil packets of Ken's salad dressing (Really? At $13 a salad??), the onion rings seemed all bread, and the bloody marys flavorless (those we complained about and got removed from the bill). Meanwhile, the prices are exceptionally high. The manager on duty seemed bored and uncaring when we saw others complaining (we were hardly the only ones unhappy with our meals). This place is a classic tourist trap -- a scheme that works once but not a second time -- and nearby places (Black Cat, Spanky's and Baxters) are vastly superior in quality. We are year-rounders, thinking to try a new place with guests from out of town. Never again. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Food wasn’t good and drinks had no alcohol/tasted funny. Waiter didn’t know anything about the menu. Waaaaayyy overpriced and entirely outdoors since there’s just plastic to shield from weather.

If I am going to pay $50 for a lobster roll, I expect it to be fresh shuck, not frozen… maybe this impresses Tourists but not anyone who knows what lobster supposed to taste like also stale on untoasted /unbuttered bun, and a $.10 bag of chips….. total money grab at least throw on some fries and coleslaw …Oysters were good… fresh and sweet.

The worst food on Cape Cod. The food tastes like it was bought from the Walmart frozen food section then nuked in the microwave before being served on a paper plate. The lobster was inedible. It had a strong fishy smell and chewy taste. The “stuffed scallop” was basically a seafood-flavored muffin with a tiny microwaved shrimp on top. Even the server was apologizing as he served our food because it looked so terrible. In addition to the disgusting food, they are blasting club music which is just a weird vibe. Save yourself. Eat anywhere else.

Nice looking place, but it was basically empty and everything was painfully slow, even for really simple drink orders, 10+ minutes for a glass of wine and 20+ minutes for the check. There are better places nearby.

Very obviously a reason a place in this location, with $1 oysters, would be absolutely empty. Even if it had the best food in the world NOTHING could make up for the god awfulservice my family I received here. Definitely marked on our do not return list. Never in my life have I had a waitress come up to me, less than 5 minutes from sitting down, and say “are you ready yet.”Also, don’t come here if you’re eco-friendly. Full of single use plastics and not a single reusable dish in sight.EDIT- updated to add a photo of their vents. Nice to know that’s what I’m breathing in while I eat ?

Our server was very good. The lobster Mac and cheese was okay, the drinks were $16 and I could not taste a sip of alcohol in the frozen

Ordered lobster on a Caesar salad to take out. Person on the phone had no idea it was on the menu. Also ordered a side of French fries. Got cut up wilted romaine with crotons and shredded Parmasan cheese with a package of Ken’s Caesar dressing!! The lobster salad was dry! French fries were sub par served with off brand katsup. For $50+ I got a cafeteria meal!! Not acceptable!!
