What a nice sea food restaurant! Amazing octopus with grapefruit, and a casserole with mussels, clams, and a couple other species I had not tried before - simply fresh and delicious. Was offered a couple of tangy tangerines and local biscuits when brought the bill, as well as a 'mise en bouche', which were an appreciated gesture. The service was and tad slow, however the waiters were very pleasant and made every effort, though their English was limited. The menu is reasonably priced for the quality, I highly recommend BlueFin if ever you find yourself in Pescara

We had an amazing time! We ordered the Scampi cocktail, and the two gnocchi dishes (one with scampi and one with Amber Jack). When we asked about wine our server brought us back to their wine cellar and we were provided the opportunity to hand pick our wine which we had a lot of fun doing. Our server also brought out a handful of complimentary small dishes including: anchovies on buttered toast, house made cookies/biscuits, and house made Limoncello. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend Bluefin.

Excellent grilled fish and extremely sweet server. Grazie Mille. We came at 7 but was told they actually open at 7:30 (not a problem but hours are incorrect on google maps)
