Seafood Near Merrick, Worth Sitting Down For

Whole grilled branzino

Our signature branzino gives a seafood dinner its centerpiece: a whole Mediterranean fish, grilled and served with the accompaniments listed on the current menu. It is an inviting place to begin if you are discovering Blue Waters for the first time. Pair your meal with a Greek wine, or ask our team for help choosing between the day’s fish and regular seafood favorites.

Grilled octopus & seafood linguine

Grilled octopus is another Blue Waters favorite, equally at home at the start of dinner or alongside other plates to share. Seafood linguine brings a different kind of comfort to the table. For Merrick guests comparing seafood restaurants nearby, our menu lets you plan a full meal, from the first appetizer to dessert, without committing to a single style of dining.
