Arguably the most beautiful restaurant I have ever been to. The views and decor are incredible. We were put downstairs and it was very quiet and relaxed. Our party agreed though that the food didn’t measure up to the decor. It was good, but for the prices and expectation I’ve had better. Very attractive looking food, and it is light and fresh feeling, though.

I've never had to wait long to get into this place. The food is always good and tasty. Sometimes the portion sizes feel a bit small and I'm not always full when I leave. Some of their special items are a bit pricey but all in all it's a good place to eat. Sadly because of the open nature of the restaurant sound carries and it's always very loud especially on weekends.

I have gone to Blue Water multiple times. Usually on Wine Down Wednesday. Wine is half off and some appetizers and pizza have a discount. Last night was noisey, it usually is upstairs. In good weather the porch facing the lake is open ; it is lovely out there. Menu has variety, not too pricey

Service and drinks were great! The food on the other hand......... mediocre at best. I ordered the blacked fish tacos and everything was wildly under seasoned. There was nothing “blackened” about the fish at all. My husband got the feature which was a southwest chicken risotto which was also way under seasoned. Everything was quite bland. With all of the GREAT food in the Grand Rapids area. This is not a contender.

This restaurant is a staple for my family and me. Anytime we can't decide where to go, we all decide that Blue Water is the best. It just has such a wide variety of food to choose from, including vegetarian options. Such a nice atmosphere in the restaurant, whether you eat on the patio/bar (which is amazing and a MUST in the summer for the view) or inside by the fireplace. It's classy, and it's a great place to bring people you want to impress!
