BluWater Bistro, American restaurant in Leschi, Seattle, US
BluWater Bistro is an American restaurant in Seattle's Leschi neighborhood, sitting on the eastern shore of Lake Washington. The dining room features mahogany wood furnishings and booth seating, with a seasonal outdoor section that opens onto the water during warmer months.
The restaurant first opened in 1997 near Lake Union, then moved to its current location on the Leschi waterfront in 2004 after major repairs to the building. It has remained in this spot since.
The menu leans on Pacific Northwest ingredients, with Dungeness crab appearing in several dishes alongside familiar American comfort food. This reflects how seafood is a natural part of everyday eating in the Seattle area.
The restaurant sits in a residential neighborhood with parking nearby, making it easy to arrive by car. The indoor dining room is open year-round, while the outdoor section is only available in the warmer months.
The restaurant prepares special holiday menus with rotating dishes, such as a Dungeness crab quiche served on Mother's Day and a traditional turkey dinner for Thanksgiving. Some regular guests time their visits specifically to catch these seasonal offerings.
