My grandson was raving about "sushi on a boat" his momma and other grandparents took him to in Miami. So his Dad set out to find a place. We found Blue Ginger. The sushi was fresh and plentiful. Small enough to sample a lot of different types. The only small complaint i have was the edamame has the garlic sauce over. It was good that way but i prefer mine plain and that never made it in the boats. The wait staff busy but super attentive. All in all a unique tasteful dining experience. read more

It feels nice to see Blue Ginger still doing great even after 15 years. The the bar with revolving sushi plates was packed, and for the amount of food given the prices seemed fair. I recommend this place to people who live in Pembroke Pines area looking for affordable sushi. Maybe I will come back again next time. This restaurant is located in a plaza that offers plenty of free parking. read more

This sushi restaurant has a really fun and unique setup with floating boats carrying different colored plates around the sushi bar - definitely a cool experience visually. The sushi itself was fresh and enjoyable, and the decor added a nice touch to the atmosphere. However, there were a few downsides. The hot food items we tried came out cold, which was disappointing. Service was friendly, but not very attentive - our drinks sat empty for quite a while, even though the restaurant wasn't very busy at the time. Also, the noise level was higher than I prefer. The music was loud, and it seemed like everyone was raising their voices to talk over it, which made it hard to relax and have a conversation. Overall, it's a fun spot with good sushi, but there's definitely room for improvement in service and ambiance. read more

This was my first time at a place like this and it did not disappoint. We went on a busy night but were still able to be sat right away at the sushi boat bar. Menus were given which although we didn't order from it, it was a nice reference to what we were eating. It was great to be able to watch the food get made as you can see what the freshest items were. Loved everything we ate. read more

Phenomenal sushi! My friend and I unfortunately got here before the conveyer belt starts (which is after 5pm), but we ordered some sushi off the menu. My go-to, the california roll, is spot on, and my friend ordered the Red Dragon Roll and loved it. The edamame is delicious, and they also have plum wine! Definitely coming back to try out the sushi conveyer next time! read more

Blue Ginger is a sushi restaurant located in the Southwest Ranches area right off of I 75 and Sheridan in the Publix shopping center. They have convenient parking right out front. What's a little different about this restaurant is you can sit at the bar and there is a mini lazy river that goes all the way through the bar. On the river are little boats that will deliver different plates of fresh made sushi and cooked food as well. The plate color helps differentiate the cost, and there is a breakdown of the cost / plate colors on the menu. They also offer sit down, full service inside the restaurant as well. This time we chose to sit at the bar and try several items. We started with the spring rolls and the scallops and then we had a few different sushi rolls and sashimi. We ended our meal with Thai donuts. The dessert was ordered through the server as we did not see desserts offered on the bar area. We found this to be a fun experience. The sushi was very good and very fresh. They make it and place it on the bar right in front of you. read more

This was a last minute decision for a late night dinner. Great they are open until later than most restaurants in the area Our server was great. Friendly and efficient Food was ok. Fried tofu was tasteless and the pad Thai was ok but unlike all other pad Thais I had there was no peanuts cilantro and sprouts garnishing and that removed some of the taste too Overall not bad but would only go back if there was no other option read more

Blue Ginger - Pad Thai vegetarian - Japanese Near Me - Southwest Ranches, Florida

We enjoyed our experience here! Sushi was great. Be prepared to wait if you want a spot at the bar.

I've had eaten here a long long time ago, even before I was on Yelp. It's a sushi bar that has the sushi rolling around the bar on a conveyor belt. That doesn't really excite me. But they do have regular tables with regular menu. The menu has a nice variety of different things to choice from. So we started with a couple of appetizers, the crab salad and some garlic edamame. The crab salad was really good, it was not heavy mayo, topped with Panko and avocado. The edamame was also very good, it was very tasty and cooked perfect. For dinner I had chicken teriyaki, other then it being over loaded with sauce it was very good. My wife had a JB tempura roll. It had a thin layer of rice and was full of salmon. I got to try it and it was very good. The only thing I didn't care for was the miso soup. It was loaded with sea weed and tofu, but I felt like it was way to salty. Our server, she was amazing too. I'd definitely want to eat here again read more

This place gets packed on the weekends but it's worth the wait. I usually go on the week days when it's less packed. What I love most about this place is the sushi is fresh and they have the food going around the countertop and you decide what you want to pick and eat. The best hole in the wall for sushi. read more

Some of the tastiest rolls I have found with awesome ambiance and service. We checked out the sushi boats one day for dinner and went earlier another day for regular sit down service. The sushi boats are awesome if you are an adventurous visual eater because it's small portions so you get to try a little bit of everything. And you have control of how much you spend because each plate has a price based on the color. The regular sit down service was awesome. I got a chance to appreciate the decor because the boats took my focus the first time. The place is trendy and an open space while maintaining intimate individual spaces. The rolls were delish. Usually we like one or two of the rolls a lot and the others are ehh. We have yet to be disappointed here. Service was phenomenal. We always had topped off water and service was prompt. Prices are average. Parking is easy because this is in a large strip mall lot. read more

Cool sushi boat bar! Food is fresh and tasty. Been here a bunch of times. Friendly staff. Can be busy on the weekend evenings.

If you ever avoid sushi because you want to try multiple things but can't justify the price vs quantity, this is your place. I recommend sitting at the bar with the rotating sushi boats, you can try as many things as you want (most are under $6 per plate) with a few special items but you'll understand what you're spending based on the color of the plate. They refill your drinks quick and the ambiance is no frills but it's perfect if you REALLY want to get your sushi fix. read more

Went downhill. Not the same Blue Ginger. The management is just not nice anymore. Prices are crap and the food is microwaved over and over.

We came with family and they raved about it so I had high expectations. Location in a shopping plaza is pretty normal for sushi spots and we had a wait for the sushi bar so they we went next door for drinks before with some small bites at the noodle bar. Once our seats were ready we headed in but they split our group as they didn't have enough seats together. We were able to get seats across from one another. The sushi is made right in front of you in the middle of the little river that the sushi floats by you on. It's a pay by plate color so you just collect your plates as you pick what you want to try. My son loved it, ate a ton of sushi and small bites. I really liked the small portions and options of more than just sushi. Fish tasted fresh and flavors were very good. Drawback was being at the end of the river and getting little variety as the good and new stuff got taken before it made it to us. Overall it was a fun experience and I would return if we were ever back in the area to visit again! read more

Oh how the mighty have fallen. I have lived in the West Pines area for seven years now and Blue Ginger has always been my go to sushi spot. I have had mostly amazing experiences here. However, the last couple times have been poor, the prices have risen and the sushi quality has dropped dramatically. My visit inspired me tonight to write a new review on what used to be the best Sushi spot in West Pines. My family and I sat at the sushi boat bar as usual. It wasn't exceptionally busy tonight, so I was hoping for a good variety of rolls being offered. Unfortunately this was not the case. I was able to grab two plates of sushi which tasted fresh but were so poorly wrapped... fell apart as soon as I used chop sticks to grab them... Hungry for a third plate... I began to look for another roll... only to be greeted with a sea of empty boats, except for the ice cold gyoza, spring rolls, and Orange Chicken that patron don't ever eat. I waited five minutes or so and watched what the sushi chefs were doing... all them prepping takeout orders... Ten mins goes by and I mention to the waitress... that there's no food. She looked shocked but said I'll have to wait and that they'll get to it when they can. I counted literally 16 of the boats in a row with nothing on them. At fifteen mins... I just asked for the check, leaving hungry and feeling as though I wasted my money. Clearly the business values it's takeout clients far more than the people spending money in their restaurant. Do yourself a favor and go to Happy Fish Sushi on Pines Blvd. Far fresher, rolled better, and much cheaper. read more

I can't really speak for the service because I got this for pickup but the atmosphere/ambiance in the restaurant is nice and it was very busy for a Sunday night which is always a good sign. The food was solid, I wouldn't say it was 10/10 best sushi ever but it was solid. The hamachi wasn't the best & didn't taste so fresh and was a bit chewy but all the other food did. They also accommodate for gluten free. read more

Took the GF the Friday before Valentine's Day! There was a 20 minute wait but we sat at the bar, were we got to see the boats travel around with many options to pick. the concept is basically you pick whatever food you want and they you pay after wards when the waitress calculatea your bill based kn the color plates that you have stacked on your table. Each plate is a different color and each one has a different value. I had a mixture of everything and my bill was about $110. This was my 3rd time coming here and I'm still amazing d by the boats! And its always fun seen a new dish coming fresh on thr kitchen and just hoping that no one else gets it before you. I definitely recommend Blue Ginger for the uniqur experience! read more

Blue Ginger isn't just any old sushi joint--it's a revolving sushi extravaganza that turned dining into a game of culinary roulette. We dove right in and loved every minute of it. The staff were very helpful as well. The dishes were not only delicious but also a bit addictive; we might have broken a personal record for most plates consumed in one sitting. despite the feast, our wallets barely flinched. The interior matches the vibe perfectly--modern and inviting. Count us in for round two. read more

Such a fun lunch or dinner spot! It's great to come with kids as they stay so entertained with the floating boats passing by and super cute and unique for date nights! I love the variety of dishes they have and the range in prices. I love that they also have a la carte menu for people that don't want to sit at the bar with the boats. And the color cord images plates with the prices are hanging on the wall so you know what you are getting! Food is as fast as it gets since you are literally grabbing it from a boat in front of you and service for extra orders and drinks is fast. read more
