Blue Sushi Sake Grill unites creative ingredients with energetic vibes, premium cold sake with happy moments to give you a fresh and fun new way to experience sushi. Our sushi and grill menus allow you to explore your sushi favorites in new and unexpected ways. We like to say that sushi is for sharing, and our menu encourages it. Order a spread of all your maki, nigiri and sashimi favs from the sushi bar, and throw in a few orders of starters from the grill. We'll stagger your plates so you can savor it all bite-by-bite, and maximize the sushi experience you've been craving all week.

We had a 5:30 reservation for a group group of seven. Five of us were there right at 5:30 and put our drink and dinner orders in. Two arrived after 6 PM and put their drink and food orders in. The late arriving group received their sushi order immediately, but one cocktail never came. The rest of us received our food orders, 45 to 55 minutes after submitting. Twice we were told that the restaurant has two kitchens, which makes timing orders difficult. I’ll say the poor Service and weird timing ruined our dinner party and made us late for the theater.Meh.

Waitress was good, hostess interaction was bizarre in that she offered us a table we requested to change and it just was not an option for us. We were leaving until a manager sat us. The restaurant was 30% full and it made no sense to us that the hostess was insistent.
