User Reviews

Blowfish Sushi  

This place was great! The ambience, server, quality of food was amazing. It's a bit expensive but worth it if you can afford it. $100 for two people - no drinks.

Great place to go with friends...  

I loved Blowfish! The food was good, the service was ok, and the atmosphere seemed very trendy...definitely a great place to go to when you're with friends, but not on a date. Luckily I went with friends. The music was a bit too loud, our wait for our reserved table was about half an hour and our table was too small. I ended up tipping the host guy to find us another 2 top to add to our table. The food is quite pricey, but definitely good. "Give me good sushi and I don't mind paying for it." It was a fun place and will probably be back.
