BLUEWATER GRILL SEAFOOD RESTAURANT

THINGS TO KNOW: Celebrating more than 20 years in business, Bluewater Grill’s mission is to serve great food in a casual, relaxed environment by friendly and knowledgeable people at a fair price. Bluewater Grill operates its own swordfish harpoon boat, the Pilikia, and serves the finest quality harpooned swordfish in season. To ensure the highest quality fish available, the restaurant purchases directly from fisherman, in season, at the peak of quality and freshness. Being fishermen at heart, the experts at Bluewater Grill want to ensure the future availability of seafood and make responsible seafood purchasing a core value of its operation.

DON’T MISS: Bluewater Grill offers more than 40 varieties of seafood annually, with oysters on the half shell, award-winning chowder, a kid’s menu approved by the Kids LiveWell program of the National Restaurant Association, patio dining, full bar and wine list, brunch and happy hour.

THE STOCKYARDS RESTAURANT

THINGS TO KNOW: This Southwestern culinary landmark originally opened in 1919 as the world’s largest cattle feedlot. With the addition of a steakhouse in 1947, it’s been serving culinary aficionados ever since. It’s famous for both the role it played in Arizona’s cattle industry, as well as its stunning architectural design, and was even recently placed on the City of Phoenix Historical Register. Stockyards offers lunch, dinner, and happy hour menus, as well as a wine list.

DON’T MISS: All customers are treated to a traditional relish tray and a heaping basket of baking soda biscuits and cornbread muffins. After savoring these, don’t miss out on the filet mignon, served with whiskey peppercorn demi-glace bearnaise sauce, or house steak butter on the side. If steak isn’t really your thing, go for the skillet salmon with citrus-chile glaze and rice pilaf. And for dessert, try the Citrus Burnt Cream (their version of creme brulee) or their Ancho Chile Brownie with cinnamon ice cream, Mexican chocolate sauce and spiced candied pepitas.
