More information on Bluepoint Oyster Bar
Bluepoint has the styling of an Art Deco 1940s fish house; the expansive, handsome dining room has huge, comfy booths and tufted banquettes, maroon-and-black marble floors, and ceiling fans spinning overhead. Oyster lovers will be delighted by the selection of more than a dozen varieties at the raw bar. Other appetizers include clams, sushi and sashimi, seafood cocktails, cold salads, and several specialty items such as baked and stuffed cherrystone clams and steamed Prince Edward Island mussels. The extensive list of entrees includes a range of fresh fish and seafood items prepared to your liking (broiled, grilled, blackened, and sautéed), and there are some big-ticket items such as Maine lobster, Alaskan king crab legs, and stone-crab dinners. The house specialties include spicy, braised catfish shanks; scallion-crusted marlin; grilled tuna bordelaise; and Bluepoint oyster and wild-mushroom ragout. For non-fish eaters, there are a few steak and chicken alternatives, too. Bluepoint isn't charting any new culinary waters, but its retro feel comes as somewhat of a relief after a few meals at the city's more "happening" (and deafening) restaurants.
