Now’s a good time as any to visit Bonefish Grill, which added recently a summer menu. I had the pleasure of being invited to sample the entrees, which include North Atlantic haddock and lobster-stuffed shrimp.
May I start you off with a drink? You’ll find two fruit-based martinis on the menu.
- You’ll be greeted with a burst of berry flavor after one sip of the Fresh Strawberry Rosé Martini ($9.10), which is muddled with raspberries, blueberries and of course, strawberries. The Belleruche rosé comes in, too, in a complementary way.
- The Fresh Watermelon martini ($9.40) is comprised of cucumber-infused vodka and muddled watermelon.
Good variety in seafood selection. I appreciated that the seasonal menu is focused but has some breadth to it.
- The Wild Sockeye Salmon With Spinach, Bacon, Blue ($23.90) is big, flaky and mild. The toppings are generous but still let the salmon shine through.
- Both parts of the Fresh Walleye & Shrimp $25.90) are indeed super fresh, and the grill flavor reminds you of summer. You don’t even need the citrus aioli; the walleye and shrimp stand out on their own.
- The Fresh DayBoat Scallops ($22.90) are incredibly soft and tender (sushi grade as described), which is expected from scallops that come off the boat in less than one day. Like the other dishes, the scallops are so fresh that they don’t require the lemon butter drizzle and bacon, though both are nice touches.
- End your meal with the Fresh Strawberry Shortcake ($7.30). It’s a dry biscuit that sits on a massive bed of strawberries and is drizzled with creme anglaise.

Onto the food. The one-page menu has appetizers (“snacks”), little plates and “dinners.” You’ll also find nightly specials (e.g. fried perch was available on a recent Friday).

The Royal Bermuda Yacht Club ($10) has La Favorite Rhum Agricole (which uses fresh sugar cane juice instead of molasses), lime, falernum (a sweet syrup) and dry curacao. The falernum added a nice sweetness to this refreshing beverage, which may remind you slightly of a pina colada.
