"Service was prompt and friendly,, seafood chowder was delicious, and my rare steak was cooked"
I celebrated my birthday at Blue on Water, and it turned out to be one of the finest dining experiences I’ve had in years. It's rare to find a meal where every course is exceptional, but this was truly outstanding!
The appetizers—scallops, arancini, and a beet and arugula salad—were remarkable. Each dish was thoughtfully plated, rich in flavor, and perfectly balanced.
For the main course, we had duck, chicken, and salmon, all of which were delicious. Each entrée was perfectly seared or crusted on the outside while remaining tender and juicy inside. The seasonal vegetables that accompanied them were equally delightful, prepared simply yet effectively.

My review is for Blue On Water restaurant.I did not stay in the hotel.I give the restaurant 5 stars as it was one of my favourite places to eat on my summer 2023 Newfoundland trip.It was a beautiful hot summer day in St Johns and I asked to sit outside. I was given a nice cold glass of water and even offered sunscreen from one of the staff.My waitress Sabrina was excellent, friendly, informative efficient.I had the fish cakes , mustard pickles, hashbrowns, fried eggs and home made toast.My goodness was it ever good.Homemade bread just like Nans that I was told was made in house. I was recommended to eat here from my air bnb host Adam and I am glad I chose to go. I can't wait to return again.
Blue on the water is an excellent boutique hotel with an excellent restaurant and wonderful people who work there! The location is awesome —right near the bay and on water Street where most of the shops and restaurants are located.We highly recommend the salmon eggs Benedict for breakfast, and if you want a late night snack, their onion rings are amazing.
The drinks here are absolutely amazing. The only down side is the staff are extremely judgmental. Prepare to be looked up and down if your not dressed exactly how they want. We watched numerous patrons come in and were watched the same way. Perhaps a talk with the staff about proper treatment should be mandatory.

Sully was honestly the friendliest host I've ever met. We have been so impressed with the level of service and how genuinely friendly everyone has been. The room was great and the bar had great drinks. I highly recommend this place!!
Oh my goodness! This is by far my favorite restaurant in the city. The drinks are incredible, and the beef tartare was spot on. The ambiance is absolutely stunning. I wish I could give it an even higher rating!
Stayed here for the first time. Lovely boutique hotel. Very good for dinner and breakfast. Got served by Faye at the restaurant and had an excellent service!!! Very cozy. Highly recommend
I was mistakenly identified as someone else and kindly asked to leave. I wouldn't recommend this place if you're bald and white. As for the food and drinks, they were lacking.
