For those of us that enjoy the flavors of cold, uncooked seafood (who doesn’t?!), the raw seafood bar is a big draw at Blue Morel. At the seafood bar, you’ll find clams on the half shell, oysters, and jumbo shrimp cocktail.
Blue Morel’s sushi selection has grown with the popularity of the raw fish dish over the years. A lot of people don’t realize, however, that a lot of sushi choices are actually cooked.
