We had an nice relaxed lunch at blue fish yesterday and enjoyed everything we ordered. We missed the lunch time rush and we treated with fast and welcoming service as well as some good recommendations from our waitress. All the sushi tasted fresh and had good flavor and the rolls we selected we great. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a good local sushi restaurante with friendly staff. We will surely be back next time we are in the mood for a good meal.

Sushi melts in your mouth. I got the basics like the eel roll and the spicy tuna and also the tempura appetizer. The sushi rolls were the best I have ever had and the tempura was very tasty too. I sat at the bar because it was very crowded and enjoyed watching all the more adventurous types of sushi the lady next to me ordered, including a beautiful quail egg roll with a raw egg in the middle.

I’ve heard this place of being a sushi hotspot where customers travel far and wide to eat here. However, when I visited I was highly disappointed. Overpriced and understaffed. For all the profit they receive one waitress and one busboy for 10-12 tables is unrealistic and unfair to the employee. I waited 20 min to be seated with my friend even though there were 3-4 vacant tables outside. For other parties they were seated in 1 min. Then, I was given an attitude that I didn’t want to sit at a the table outside right next to the door where there was high foot traffic during COVID season. Then, 2 other parties that came after us were attended first and served 6 different plates of food immediately when I had ordered before them a soup and 1 plate of sushi, super simple. It was after work and I was very hungry and had patiently waited for my food for 30 min when the other customers who came much later than me were fed in 5-10 min. I was left confused and perplexed. They could have at least brought out our drinks and miso soup for starters. But they didn’t think of that. I had to go up to the waitress and remind her a few times about my food. Apparently, they had burned my food supposedly. If that was genuinely the case, they should have redone it before preparing other tables with plates and plates of food. Then, I asked that same waitress to give me some sort of discount b/c they didn’t even offer any free appetizer or discount for their error. At the end, I persisted and asked for a little discount b/c she didn’t want to give it. She actually huffed and puffed and slammed my card aggressively in front of me. Mind you I was talking very calmly, politely and patiently. She proceeded to pull out a “Karen” scene. Her behavior was very hostile, inappropriate, and unprofessional. I felt very mistreated and upset. This place abuses and mistreats customers. The food is same as other sushi places just overpriced with terrible service and with an aggressive / violent waitress. Steer clear.

Super friendly and attentive staff, all the food is super delicious, super fast service, would definitely go back!

I was so delighted to find an excellent sushi restaurant in the midst of the historic Montrose Shopping Park. I had a tasty tempura shrimp roll before the teriyaki salmon entrée. They have the best miso soup in town. It was nice to be able to enjoy my meal sitting outside at the parklet tables on a beautiful day.

Good sushi. Just a little pricey. My daughter had 4 california hand rolls and it was about 32 dollars. Other than being a little overpriced, sushi was decent. Service is good.

Eat here for the first time. Sushi was delicious. I always have sushi at that other restaurant near by. I don’t want to name the place. For a long time resident of Montrose, I can’t believe I didn’t try it before. Now I have 2 good sushi place near by. Who needs to drive down to Glendale anymore.

One of my favorite go to sushi restaurants!!! It is a home away from home and best rolls ever!! They might be busy but also they are very attentive and are always there to bring another order of Saki ! Very yummy rolls and sooo many to chose!

We usually go to Sake Sushi across the street! I knew I should’ve never tooken the chance to eat here! Fish is rotten, quality and service suck! They brought out the wrong order and they didn’t even want to remove it off the check! Disgusting management! They would rather lose a very valuable customer but gain that extra fifteen bucks for a roll. I will never even think about eating here ever again!

This is best sushi place. High quality and they are always fresh
