    What I don't appreciate is being FORCED to pay a minimum 20% tip when our server did not refill A SINGLE DRINK ALL NIGHT. Like you can't choose ANY amount BUT 20%, 22% or 25%. The service was truly awful but I suppose if you know you're getting a minimum of 20% no matter what then the indifference makes sense. The food came very slowly but I will say was very good.

    Always our fav for sushi! But our waiter wasn’t good at all. Waited for water, waited to give our order, never asked us about refills, billed us incorrectly twice. We usually never complain and always have great service, so it was a bit of a disappointment.

    Always enjoy this restaurant. They're friendly and very accommodating with requests to leave things off certain sushi rolls. It's a great location for dinner before a show at Bridgestone Arena.

    My husband and I visited Blue Sushi & Sake Grill last night before heading to the Weezer concert downtown, and it was the perfect start to our evening! The food was fantastic, and Sarah and Leo both deserve a special shout-out for making our experience so memorable. Sarah’s warm hospitality and attention to detail really stood out, and Leo provided exceptional service throughout our meal. Both went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and ensure we had a great experience. It’s always a pleasure to enjoy delicious food alongside people who genuinely care about their guests. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back. Thank you, Sarah and Leo, for making our night out extra special! ❤️

    We came to celebrate my husband’s birthday with a few friends. Courtney was an amazing server. She answered all of our questions, gave recommendations and kept us informed of when our drinks and food were coming out.

    good sushi. Weird that they didnt have just plain steamed rice, just sushi rice. I did order the rice to go with my sashimi, but the rice never came. Sashimi was great, even without the rice. Great pomegranate martini.

    Our server was fantastic and had us feeling very comfortable with her knowledge and the kitchen’s approach to serving those with celiac disease. They have a separate gluten free menu as well.
