I made a reservation which I highly recommend (if no reservation it was over an hour wait). When you first walk in it was so crowded. The silverware was dirty, my glass had food on it. We ordered a jack and coke and it was a little on the weak side. The ribeye was ok but the filet mignon was delicious. It was so tender. We got the cheesecake and chocolate cake which was ok also. I have been wanting to try this place for a while. The price was not bad but not one of my top choices to go.

Our waiter’s recommendations were spot on. The salmon was perfectly cooked, the steak was flavorful, and the scallops were incredibly tender. Every dish was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting.

Excellent food! My two colleagues and I were all thrilled with our dishes. One got the Salmon stuffed with feta (new special), another the fish with grits, and I had the scallop pasta (very, very good).
Nice staff and great outdoor seating for warm evenings. Indoor seating seemed fine but a bit too fishy smelling even for this fish loving crowd (probably just need to charge an air filter).

Ordered two salads to go from Blue Marlin—the BBQ salmon and alfresco salmon. Portions were good for the price, and the food was fresh and satisfying. Only downside was the tight parking—we had to double park to pick up the order. (Salmon was packed separately from the salad which was greatly appreciated keeping the salad crisp)

I’m currently visiting here on 11/2 while in town for work. The drink was nice. The crab cake wasn’t lump crab but it was good. The gumbo was good. And my entree that I ordered of the “specialty catch” never arrived after waiting an hour hence my last photo of my “dinner” aka an empty table. Maybe they had to fly to Australia to catch the Australian sea bass 🤷🏾♀️ who knows 🤷🏾♀️ I wanted to love it but I’m leaving disappointed.
Edit: I expressed my disappointment to the manager Julie and she rectified the situation.
