The Blu Crab Seafood House & Bar

Long time FW resident here highly recommending this restaurant for their customer service, food, and solid turnkey experience. I needed to find a place to host a group of 20 or so folks inside 1 week. When I called Fitzgerald, they made it so dang easy for me while also making sure every detail looked custom and preplanned. Their hostess stayed in contact with me the days before and essentially planned it all. I can’t thank them enough for all the ways they helped make the event happen. And the food was FANTASTIC.

We went for brunch. The food and bottomless mimosas (a steady flow) were amazing. We had a variety of menu items from the char-grilled oysters to the chicken and waffles. If you’re hungry, definitely get chicken and waffles. We started with appetizers and I would highly refined the spinach and crawfish dip. Our waitress, Emma was very friendly. She was attentive and ensured we had all we needed. We felt extremely comfortable and the environment was great for friends catching up. I would hands down recommend this as a brunch location and I hear the happy hour is top tier.

Was a nice restaurant week dinner. Wife started with Chilled Sweet Corn and Blue Crab Soup. She said it was good and enjoyed. I started with the House Gumbo. It was also good with alot going on. It wasn't just a watery soup. Wife then had the Blackened Redfish which she enjoyed. I had the Tenderloin. It was good, but not sure it was worth the upcharge. Was done in the middle perfectly, however the outside sear was a bit tough and had a bit more burnt taste then I cared for. Wife finished with the Chocolate Mousse and I had the Keylime Pie. They were both very good. We did order the wine pairing, but it was never shared what the wines were. They tasted good, it would have been nice to know what we were drinking. Also, first pairing was a rose sparkling. Thought this was an odd pairing with the Gumbo. Overall service was good, however our server seemed new and needed to learn a bit (alot). I'd go back, but try to not sit near the bar and kitchen. Too much internal discussions that we heard and it was trafficked. Not sure if we were relegated here because of the Restaurant Week menu, but it felt a bit like the worst table in the place. Atmosphere was nice, but a bit dated.

We went for the Jazz Brunch on our anniversary and they had the best espresso martinis!! We were able to get substitutions to make the Steak & Eggs + Gumbo both gluten free and dairy free for our allergies. The staff was great with our allergies and even gave us complementary champagne for our anniversary. We made reservations in advance to listen to the live jazz on the patio and it was lovely.

Fitzgerald's has a lovely decor which makes it a nice place for a special occasion. I wasn't sure what to expect when we were seated as we didn't have a reservation and they seemed to imply we needed one even tho it was early and almost empty...but this place surpassed my expectations. Our waitress Carrie was the best - super attentive and fun! We really enjoyed everything from the hush puppies & jalepeno sausage appetizers to our main dishes. The shrimp and grits were excellent and my hubs really liked his roasted chicken & poblano cheese grits. When we told Carrie we were celebrating our upcoming birthdays she brought us a bananas foster pudding on the house. Try the Fitzgerald house cocktail with Nolets gin, it's bomb!

The restaurant overall is really cute, but they sat us in the back where it felt like overflow which wasn’t decorated as nice and was cramped. Aside from that, this was our first time here celebrating our anniversary and it was wonderful! The staff were great and the food was REALLY good for the price points.The deviled eggs were out of this world good and my filet/crab cake combo was perfect. Really good portion sizes- just a great time overall. Will definitely be back

We picked this restaurant as a last minute birthday dinner spot for my husband's birthday. I was just looking for a steak restaurant and we got way more than that. He's a big fan of raw oysters and these didn't disappoint. I love crab cakes and these were jam-packed with lump crab and the little (too small) dollop of sauce was wonderful. My husband got the sea bass, which was cooked to perfection with a nice crisp sear and a good portion of their sauce on top. I got surf and turf with lobster and filet and was very impressed. We also shared the mac n cheese, which was a good complement to the spice in the sauce on our meals. The service was good, but our appetizers didn't time together. It was a nice surprise to visit a newish seafood place in town that exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be back.

The Camp Bowie strip center location doesn't really telegraph the experience you will have once inside. We found the interior comfortable and understatedly elegant, the service impeccable, and the food really extraordinary. We tried the catfish and blackened redfish, the latter recommended by our waiter, Jason, who clearly knows the menu well enough to make useful suggestions. Service was unhurried, exactly what we were looking for while sharing dinner with close friends we hadn't been able to see for several weeks. We capped the dinner with a slice (rather, slab) of hummingbird cake that we split four ways, and still left some on the plates. Altogether a great restaurant experience that we will return to again!
