Blu Pointe is one of those restaurants we always come back to, whether it's during the week or on…read morethe weekend. Between the delicious food, outstanding service, and breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge, it's always a great experience. The staff is consistently friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. The servers know the menu well and are happy to make recommendations, making every visit feel relaxed and enjoyable. One of our favorite times to visit is for their weekend brunch buffet, which offers a great variety of options. During the week, their Happy Hour (4-7 PM) is another favorite, especially the $1 oysters. It gets busy, so I definitely recommend arriving early. Just keep in mind that Happy Hour is available only in the bar and lounge area. The restaurant is clean, has a spacious parking lot shared with the neighboring restaurant, and offers a beautiful outdoor patio overlooking the river during the warmer months. The patio closes for the winter, but it's one of the best places to dine when the weather is nice. They also have a kids' menu, although my 6-year-old usually orders from the regular menu because she has a very adventurous palate. If you're looking for great seafood, excellent service, gorgeous waterfront views, and one of the best dining experiences in Newburgh, Blu Pointe is an easy recommendation. It's one of our favorite restaurants, and we always look forward to coming back.

We chose this restaurant for our anniversary lunch. I was a little concerned after seeing mixed…read morereviews, but I was drawn in by the seafood-forward menu and the beautiful river views. We went for a late lunch and were pleasantly surprised by how attentive the service was. The setting alone is quiet, scenic, and relaxing, adding to the experience feeling special. We're particular about cocktails, and the specialty drinks leaned a bit sweet and light for our taste, but switching to a Grey Goose martini solved that quickly. The standout of the meal was the special appetizer, the Lobster Escargot. Between the bread service and the rich, bisque-like sauce layered over the classic preparation, I could have happily ended the meal right there. We left no trace behind. I followed with the crab cake and wedge salad. The crab cake was generously sized, very fresh, and exactly what I hoped for. My husband ordered the branzino, which was absolute perfection, beautifully cooked and full of flavor. The sides, however, were less memorable; the smashed potatoes and green beans felt under-seasoned and a bit boring compared to the rest of the meal. Overall, it was a lovely anniversary lunch with memorable dishes and a beautiful view.

It's the perfect place to relax, enjoy a meal, and take in the scenery. The seafood is always fresh and delicious. We especially enjoy the raw bar, the lobster rolls, the New England clam chowder, and the Oysters Rockefeller. They also have great cocktails, making it a wonderful spot for lunch, dinner, or a special night out. The service has always been friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is casual, welcoming, and perfect for families or a date night. If you're looking for great seafood with one of the best waterfront views in Newburgh, Captain Jake's is definitely worth a visit. We'll absolutely be back!

I have read many past reviews. I think this is a place that few areas have. It's a unique place,…read morethat serves thoughtfully crafted dishes. The main theme seems to be fresh fish, seafood, and it seems fresh everything else. (Confirmed that they get fresh shipments daily). With reservations for 9 at 6:30 on a Monday, where many places are closed, we walked into a fully booked restaurant. Our giant table stood out amongst all the other full tables that were in various stages of dining. So, we took up a decent amount of the restaurant space. A reunion with family and so were happy to talk and have some bread, and drinks while they were wrapping up their other patrons also enjoying themselves. The main purpose seemed to be to time taking our orders in a way that they would come out properly. As the food came out, it was one wonderful dish after another. I could name and describe eschar one, but fresh and flavorful is the best way. I can imagine that at the time when we arrived that the kitchen was hopping. The chefs seemed to focus very well on each individual order, so of course it took some, but not excessive time. As it took a little while to start we also were not rushed out. Perhaps if we had gotten there at 5 then I suppose we might have been moved along some, since restaurants need to get some turnover at the peak hours, we were happy to offer some well rewarded patience, which was reciprocated with polite, warm, service and great food. This is a regular place for locals who know what they like. It is well worth putting some effort in to explore the various foods and drinks offered, as they were all exceptional. So, I must give it 5 stars. The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is unique and actually stunning, especially during daylight where you are overlooking the Hudson and into the mountains across the river. Thus, it is a great landmark establishment of the Newburgh area.

The staff is attentive, warm, and makes you feel genuinely welcomed from the moment you walk in. The range of food options is impressive. Whether you are in the mood for something light or a full, indulgent meal, there is always something exciting to choose from. Everything we have tried has been beautifully presented and packed with flavor. The drinks are excellent, especially the Faison margarita. It is perfectly balanced and one of the best cocktails we have had anywhere. You can tell care goes into every detail behind the bar. Their Sunday brunch buffet is also fantastic. Great variety, fresh offerings, and such a fun way to spend a relaxing weekend morning. The overall ambiance and vibe are just right. It feels elevated yet comfortable, making it perfect for date night, celebrations, or a casual dinner out.

However, the amount of proteins offered; has gone down quite a bit, and there are a lot of starches on the hot buffet. The minute steak and the chicken francese were both rather tough. I couldn't tell what kind of fried fish it was supposed to be under the breading. It wasn't too bad. The Cold station had usual grilled vegetables, cold smoked salmon, and cold cuts. All platted artistically. There aren't as many desserts as usual. For me that's NBD. You would think for $35 there would be a more varied hot table entrees.

In the fish and chips box, there are 2 large filets of fish piled high with plenty of fries. The taco wraps come on a medium sized soft tortilla with your choice of grilled or fried fish. We had the kojak which was filled with crisp veggies, fried fish, white sauce and cilantro. It's messy but a refreshing change from fish and chips. I think the standard type of fish is catfish, but could also be tilapia or whiting. I will have to check next time. They also have salmon and shrimp options which I will need to try. Prices are fair for the portions.
