What Kathy C likes about Blue On Water:
I've had meals at Blue on Water for many years...I had 3 late afternoon lunches there in the past couple of weeks. This year they have an especially good selection for that time of day, when many restaurants on Water Street are closed. Each time we had a fish entree, all done with a contemporary recipe delicious.

Blue on Water Restaurant in St. Johns offers a beautiful rustic chic setting with excellent service. While some guests had issues with the food, such as cold lobster benedict, overall, the menu is varied and delicious. The inn connected to the restaurant has comfortable rooms, but guests should be aware that noise from the bar downstairs can be disruptive, especially late at night. For those looking for a lively bar scene, this might not be an issue. The restaurant provides a friendly casual atmosphere, top-notch food and drinks, and reasonable prices. Service may have some room for improvement, but the overall dining experience is highly recommended. From lobster rolls to beet salad, the food is delicious and the service is fast and friendly. Overall, Blue on Water Restaurant offers a satisfying dining experience in a cozy and welcoming environment.
