A 1940's San Francisco Style Supper Club, Blue Point Coastal Cuisine was the Gaslamp's first seafood restaurant.
Dinner $25-$39
Elegance and comfort emanate from the rich wood interior complemented by polished brass railings and pillowy, black leather booths. With the sounds of big band music humming in the background, Blue Point exudes style and sophistication, while extending a first class dining experience. From the top-notch menu and professional staff to the best 40's swing music and magnificent atmosphere, Blue Point is sure to please the senses.
Blue Point selects only the best seafood, oysters and meats from coast to coast each day to use in dishes such as Lobster Crusted Alaskan Halibut with baby "marble mix" potatoes, wild mushrooms, and black truffle vinaigrette, and Roasted Rack of Lamb served over a cassoulet of white beans, mergueze sausage, braised field greens and oven-dried local tomatoes. Fresh house-made chowders, soups, sauces, and accompaniments are created from scratch in Blue Point’s kitchen.
Blue Point’s full bar houses a rare and classic collection of liquors including small batch, single-barrel aged bourbons, single malt and blended scotches representing all the regions of Scotland and a delightful list of aged tequilas. Blue Point also offers a diverse wine list with some of California’s best wines, plus eight handcrafted microbrew beers and a selection of rare Ports, Armagnacs, Brandies and Cognacs, as well as an extensive specialty martini list.
