The service was great, the waitress was very friendly and attentive. I got a chicken katsu bento box, most of it tasted good besides the chicken. This may have been my mistake getting chicken, instead of the sushi, but my chicken was an extremely thin slice. If I came here again, I'd definitely try the sushi. Maybe it was just an off day, so I'm not judging to harshly.
Ordered bluefin tuna sashimi. Had a slight fishy aftertaste. Kinda overpriced.
Fatty yellowtail sashimi was really good.
Ordered Seared scallops. The whole scallop, top to bottom were warm which threw me off (might have been sitting out for a while) Other seared scallops I’ve had before were only warm on the top. Scallops were also small for the price.
Hamachi Kama was really good. Nice seasoning, perfectly cooked.
Staff were nice. Atmosphere was nice.
The food was really truly remarkable and refreshing. We had the nights special Oysters which were wonderful, and right off the truck. The oysters were followed by a ceviche roll with Scottish salmon and yellowtail. The Serrano gave it the perfect amount of spice. We finished with an amazing A5 wagyu. Truly a great experience and we will be back over and over.
Add to all this the service was attentive, kind and respectful. Five stars from my wife and I !!!!!!!
I was craving sushi and stumbled into Bluefin, their sushi did not disappoint! Here’s the rundown:
Food:
They have a massive list of choices, but I wanted to have a light meal, so I went with the basics: a classic spicy roll with tuna and a Dragon roll. They provided me a basic side salad with cut up shrimp as a special. It was tasty, but the shrimp was a bit chewy. The spicy roll was good, but it was missing the spice. The highlight was The Dragon Roll; it might be one of the best I have ever had! It had the right portions, fresh taste and overall enjoyable. The downfall of my meal was the Tempura Cheesecake the first bite was delectable, but the inside was still frozen and had a pasty taste. It was another special on the house; I hadn’t originally asked for a dessert, but they said it was for grand opening. I’m not much of a sweets guy, so I’m not really an authority on the topic, but I would’ve been content without.
The Service:
Two words (or is it one?): World -Class. I might be biased because I was the sole patron at the time, but It felt like every employee was there to serve me. But seriously, my main server was so kind and helpful. She explained the best sushi, and how they differed (I’m sorry I wasn’t that hungry)! I would have taken any of her suggestions, if I had a larger apatite. Everyone was on their a-game and was super kind. They made me feel very welcomed.
The Atmosphere:
Again, I might not be the best person to ask, but it was very comfortable; I sat at the sushi bar. It was fun to watch them make the rolls, but it did feel like they were watching me while waiting for me to order..I digress. I feel like this place has a lot of potential to be a real good time! However, they had this guitar player who was singing to.. well me, and the staff. This musician had his moments, but when he started singing Charlie Puth, it was time to go.. he was EXCELLENT with his country and rock covers.
Misc.
As of yesterday, they didn’t have their liquor license, so that was a miss.
Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and would recommend EVERYONE check them out!
Great sushi spot! Service was beyond expectations, food was fresh, flavors were delish! We got to watch the chef bring fresh slabs of fish in and cut it up (nice big chunks in photo). Thanks to our server for the recommendations, will return soon!
