The recall of 143 million pounds of beef last month didn't drive our decision to try a seafood restaurant for dinner. But it didn't hurt.
Bluefin Seafood Bistro, as it turns out, was a fine choice.
The restaurant, semi-hidden in a corner at Casas Adobes Plaza on the southwest corner of North Oracle and West Ina roads, is an elegant bit of Northwest Tucson where the food met expectations and exceeded anticipation..read more
Like seafood? Bluefin is sure to please
By Kathleen Allen

"One of the marvels of modern times is that we can get fresh seafood in the desert.And that's exactly what Bluefin specializes in: fish.
There are cod and lobster and shrimp and ahi and sea bass and - well, you get the idea.
The recently opened hip restaurant in Casas Adobes Plaza - brought to us by the folks at Kingfisher - is a veritable ocean of seafood choices. That's a little bit of an exaggeration. OK, a big exaggeration. But it does have a fish menu that could be the most varied and exciting in town.
Bluefin has a cool ambience, with a bar downstairs and live music on weekends. Upstairs, there are big arched windows and cozy tables and booths. The service is friendly, fast and efficient.
And you'll want that fast and efficient service - understandably, you'll be eager to chow down on the fish; they know how to do it right at Bluefin."
