Regina, Merrilee and I enjoyed an evening out recently. We chose BlueWater Grill in Carlsbad. It's been around for about three years, since Fish Veracruz closed, on Carlsbad Village Drive. We went on a Wednesday around 6pm, and I was shocked that there was a 30 minute wait. Luckily they had entertainment (a folk singer) to keep us happy, and a wonderful, strong, Margherita. We were happy and hungry when we were finally seated, and immediately dug into the sour dough bread and butter on the table. How can you resist that?
We started the meal with an order of fried calamari, probably one of the best I've had in a long time. It was lightly battered, fried but not greasy, with a remolod sauce and a sweet and sour sauce. That was gone in no time flat, and we all ordered our entrees. Merrilee ordered scallops on a bet of mashed potatoes with vegetables. She loved it, and had enough to take home for another meal. I ordered grilled salmon with scalloped potatoes, Regina ordered another fish (sand dabs?) and scalloped potatoes. The fish was delicious, and the potatoes were outstanding. If you go there, try the scalloped potatoes.
No room for dessert. The menu is extensive and includes everything you would expect, including lobster roll and cioppino and key lime pie for dessert. The food was great, and of course, dinner with Merrilee and Regina is always a treat.
