Tuna Takeover

Any way you slice it ” from seared Ahi and Albacore to Calico Poke and Spicy Tuna Rolls ” tuna takes top billing during Bluewater Grill’s August tasting events in Newport Beach, Redondo Beach, Tustin and Avalon, Calif., and Phoenix. Throughout the month, seafood lovers can pair their fish with authentic Japanese beer and sake in addition to the customary hand-selected wine.

The Bluewater Grill “Tuna Takeover” Tasting Event on Tuesday, August 13th, will feature a feast of tuna prepared five ways: Seared Ahi; Seared and Smoked Albacore; Calico Poke, including both Ahi and Albacore; and Spicy Tuna Roll sushi. The $24.95 price includes a choice of tastings of Hakutsuru Draft Sake and Sapporo Draft Beer, both imported from Japan, or Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand.

Throughout the month, customers can order a special tuna platter off the menu, as well as the featured sakes, beers and wines poured during the August 13th event.

Consistent with Bluewater Grill’s strict commitment to seafood sustainability, all varieties of tuna served during the tasting comply with sustainability standards established by the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach or other third-party organization involved in fish-origin certification.
