Blue Point Coastal CuisineRock fish was plentiful butRock fish was plentiful but tasteless; however, the sauce that accompanied it was delicious, but sparse. The warm chocolate cake with ice-cream is worth a visit.6/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful experienceWe've been to this restaurant twice, and both times we were extremely pleased.

THE OYSTERS WERE WONDERFUL THE FISH IS EXCEPTIONAL.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMGood Place in The Gas LampGreat looking restaurant and the service was excellent. Very good and innovative fish selections.

Great service. Used the Cohen restaurant card we got at Costco and used the passport card. Dinner with drinks $63.00. Score!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMSerious Gaslight SeafooderOn my one visit I was impressed by Blue Point’s wide ranging menu emphasizing seafood, although the land offerings are more than just tokens. After a half dozen high quality oysters, I couldn’t turn down a special salmon prepared with a bacon-tinged barbecue sauce, matched with a creamy polenta, fried green tomatoes, and a bed of arugula; the combination was very effective. Good martinis are served in a small cocktail glass, with a substantial residual volume brought to the table in a iced flask. Good wine list. There’s abundant sidewalk seating at this corner location, but despite the beautiful evening I like most diners chose the less hectic and nicely appointed interior.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food was delicious andThe food was delicious and there was a good selection of cocktails and alcohol. The wine list was overpriced.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMGood food, if you don't mind noiseWe like Blue Point, and have gone for years for special occasions. Often, however, the noise level is too high for easy conversation. Ask for a booth facing the windows away from the bar. They may more may not give it to you.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMLate for the show.Dinner was good although we were almost late getting to our show. Took a long time to get the bill taken care of.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of our favorite restaurantsOne of our favorite restaurants in Southern Cal. Love the ambiance - reminds me a "San Francisco" style restaurant. We always ask for a booth - comfortable and sophisticated dining and very friendly attentive service. The appetizers are outstanding - we had calmari - really one of the best we have had anywhere and the lobster bisque is to die for. We both ordered the trout stuffed with dungeness crabmeat. My wife has had this before and said it was better. It was good but not great. I usually order the doral (a grouper) when we go as it is outstanding. This is a wonderful restaurant with great ambiance and service.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMWorth the DriveWe life in Dana Point and this is the third we have driven to San Diego to eat at Blue Point Coastal.

Not a place for a quiet dinner and conversation.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMA really great dinner andA really great dinner and overall experience.

They were cooked perfectly. I do not like ratatouille which was suppose to be served with the dish, so the waiter said just pick what sides you would like instead. I had the Potato Galette (so yummy)and Asparagus. Great ambience but we went early because we had theatre tickets at Copley. The waiter gave us great advice on parking for Copley. We had a great night out....thanks Blue Point!4/9/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat seafood restaurant inGreat seafood restaurant in Gaslamp.

For the entree, I had the lobster crusted dorado. The fish itself was nicely cooked, but the wild mushrooms were truly outstanding.
