Stopped by for lunch during restaurant week. There is plenty of parking in the shared lot outside. The interior is decorated well - modern, vibrant, and feels more up-scale. We ordered the house salad as appetizer, tuna tower and tofu lettuce wraps as mains, and chocolate torte for dessert. Service was pretty fast. However, the order in which we were served was a bit strange. We ended up receiving our dessert with our main, which left us trying to quickly eat the main so that the sorbet wouldn't melt. The serving sizes are relatively small. The quality of ingredients were good and fresh, but it was an overall light lunch. We grabbed a bite to eat elsewhere not long after. But, for the price it was a nice bite. read more

Went to this location with my colleague for lunch. We were seated immediately. It's a great ambiance. Nice music. It's located in an outdoor retail area so parking and a garage close by. Staff was friendly and patient with me and my allergies. I initially ordered something but didn't realize it was blue crab. They allowed me to get a shrimp roll along with fried rice. I also got a great drink, China Doll, that was tasty. I appreciate the customer service here. They were not only friendly but also very accommodating. Shout out to JD, our server, and Cassidy who checked on me. read more

I've visited Lexington several times in the past two years (and went to UK 30 years ago), and Blue Sushi Sake Grill is the best Lexington restaurant I've been to so far. A lot of other Lexington restaurants are hopelessly average. Here, the coconut crab soup is one of the best soups I've had anywhere. I like that they put cucumber instead of lemon in the water glass. My spiced rum old fashioned was perfection. I had bbq eel unagi and the Crunch L.A. roll, which were great. My husband and I split the chocolate spring rolls dessert, which was unique and amazing. And the service was on point without being too fawning. read more

A great variety of sushi rolls to choose from. Classics like tuna rolls, avocado rolls, etc. And some solid more "modern" rolls with crab, spicy ahi, sashimi, and a really solid vegan selection! Raw, cooked, and everything in between. Very trendy, kinda loud. But the service is good overall. read more

Always good! We've been 10 plus times and its always tasty. On Sunday they have "all day" happy hour which is awesome!

Come with time, both times I've gone it's been a short wait on the fresh sushi. Totally worth it though. The venue is always clean and moody. I always order the lion king and the crab Rangoon! They also have a lot of great cocktails and mocktails! read more

Great upscale sushi bar with unique menu items! Lettuce wraps are a must here and the sushi is always great! The cowgirl roll is a new favorite, it's vegan but surprisingly tastes like a White Castle slider in sushi form! The themed cocktail menu is fresh and fun, it has something for everyone! Service can be a little slow, however the food is worth the wait! Next time you're in the area and in the mood for sushi this is the place to go!! read more

Came in for happy hour. The ambiance is really nice, the restaurant has a big space with tons of tables and two sides for the bar. The happy hour menu looked reasonable with nice items listed. However, when we got our sashimi, the cuts were very thin, almost translucent. We ordered spicy garlic edamame and received edamame with tajin sprinkled on them. There's no Sapporo offered. Overall, it was decent. read more

Food and service determines what kind of the experience will be or at least what to expect. The ambience was very good and clean. Our visit was on a Saturday early evening (5pm) and there were no waiting line and we were seated immediately. Our waiter " Dean E." was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly! He offered an menu tour since we didn't know what to order. I would strongly suggest doing this if you want to get an idea on what to order. He even reviewed the vegetarian menu and don't be afraid of the options! Dean gave us his suggestions and we went for it! No regrets!!! We order the miso soup, the coconut crab soup. The thriller roll (my fav roll of them all the rolls we ordered) the vegetarian shiitake to me roll -yum cooked roll. The cloud nine 2.0 roll. The yellowtail serrano (yum yum this a raw roll) and the Spanish fly roll (raw roll) we ended up 2 because it was so delicious! The drinks were also amazing. Presentation and taste was well worth it! The whole experience was beyond our expectations! We are so happy we got "Dean" as our guide on this adventure. Highly recommend this place. read more

Great atmosphere Sushi is amazing, I sit at the bar most of the times due to happy hour all day on Sunday, catch me there on Sundays!!!

I LOVED Blue Sushi Sake Grill! I stopped in here for lunch and caught the happy hour (which lasts practically all day!). Service was great and I had a very kind waitress who shared great information about the menu and was super informative. I also loved the playlist in the restaurant! Parking is super at the Summit in my opinion. Lastly, the food was delicious! I'm looking forward to visiting again to try more items for the menu. read more

This place is absolutely amazing! We found it while looking for vegan food in Central Kentucky. Loved it so much we went twice in one day, once for lunch and once for dinner. I don't think I've ever had anything that could truly be called vegan sushi, but the menu here provided ample and numerous choices. We tried several and everything was absolutely incredible! The menu itself is quite extensive, so there are tons of options for vegans and non-vegans alike. They have a plant-based tuna, eel, and a variety of unique ingredients to add to their sushi rolls. The experience is literally unmatched! In addition, all of the staff members are friendly and happy, including the manager who stopped by our table and then recognized us when we came back for dinner! And on top of all of that, the prices are super reasonable! Atmosphere is pleasant, not too loud, and very comfortable. Several guests were dressed up because it's appropriate for a nice evening out. We will definitely be returning the next time we're in the area, and we are hoping they will open a franchise in our area. read more

I have been here 3-4 times now and sushi is very good. Highly recommend. I would make this place a standard for eating if you like Sushi only problem is the parking absolutely SUCKS! read more

Best sushi in town not only because of the taste/ creativity, but also due to the great happy hour value sat half prices everyday until 6:30 and all day Sunday. Blue Sushi spoils you for taste, selection, value, atmosphere, desserts and vegetables/ appetizers, as no other place in town( or in the US) can compete! read more

Absolutely delicious! We took advantage of happy hour and everything was very fairly priced. We came on a Sunday afternoon. We did have to wait for a table, but not very long. The restaurant was very trendy and the decor was tasteful. All of the food was very tasty and fresh. We will definitely be coming back! read more

Best sushi in the area. In The Summit at Fritz Farm, an upscale shopping and dining area. Great ambiance with plenty of indoor and outdoor dining. Vast menu for any and every palate. None of the cream cheese crap and cat food sushi you get at a hibachi/sushi combo restaurant. We eat here frequently and are never disappointed with food, wine, nor service - all five stars. Chicken lettuce wraps are a must have for appetizer, though they also have a tofu option. Lion King roll is my favorite. If you like sushi, Blue is a must! read more

My go-to place to eat! I absolutely love Blue Sushi! I switched up my typical order and tried out the Thriller, Spicy Gringo, house salad with carrot ginger dressing, and Crispy rice cakes! Everything was spectacular! The spicy gringo definitely packs a punch so if you are sensitive to spice be prepared. The crispy rice cakes were so perfect I will definitely add this to my favorites list from them! Thriller roll is my favorite roll on the menu by far! We sat on the patio since the weather is warming up! Our server Maggileigh was great! I just wish they played a different type of music, the type they play always makes me feel nervous and rushed hahah! read more

Super fresh sushi. Menu organized by raw, cooked, vegetarian, etc. My husband prefers cooked, so it made it easy to choose. Most of the rolls were spicy, but staff gave great advice. I got the godzilla roll & picked the jalapeños off & it had a great kick. Hubby got the LA roll that was amazing. Sorry, I can't tenderness the 3rd roll, but it was flavorful as well. They serve cucumber water instead of your typical water with lemon. Great location at the Summit at Fritz farm. Will be back when we visit again read more

The Blue Sushi Sake Grill is my husband's favorite sushi spot in Lexington. My husband ordered the Beach and the Godzilla Bomb on this visit. He ordered them for 3 reasons: spicy, raw, and no cucumbers. He said the sushi looked smaller, but stayed the same price. It's not necessarily a bad thing since the sushi rolls were too big before the change. The service was great. It's usually busy, but can br seated right away. read more

I had the opportunity to visit last year, and it has been on my mind ever since. I know I'm not the only one to crave sushi and tbh nothing was satisfying that at my local sushi spot. We had to return twice during our visit to Versailles due to our fondness. The charred spicy edamame is a must. The service was commendable and the ambiance was exceptional. read more

Blue Sushi Sake Grill - Happy hour - Sushi Bars Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

My absolute favorite place for upscale sushi in Lexington! My friends and I love coming here for the modern takes on the rolls-- especially the vegan ones! The Thai hippie roll is one of the best vegetarian sushi rolls I've ever had, but their maki and others are great too! We love the Hawaiian roll for the mango sauce but you really can't go wrong with anything here. The cocktails are great and they have happy hour all day on Sundays. Their happy hour menu is just reduced price on a few rolls but its still a great selection and good price for the quality. The service is always great and the restaurant is always clean. read more

I went to this amazing restaurant tonight, my friend and I had such a great experience. Emily was our server, she was so kind and very knowledgeable on the menu and helped my friend find delicious gluten free options.

This was our first visit to Blue Sushi and left happy. They have a great variety of cooked and raw sushi and plenty of starters of all sizes. We started with a flight of sakes and the River Rock Beef, which are slices of raw beef layer across sizzling stones before being brought to the table. If you aren't a fan of VERY rare beef then skip this one. It was borderline for me but he flavor was amazing. The sake flights were a fun touch. We had the Cherry Bomb sashimi which had a spice kick but was tasty and a variety of maki. We were torn on which was the favorite but all agreed we'd skip the spicy tako (octopus) next time. Octopus is just always too tough and chewy when I've had it. Overall this is a good addition to our sushi rotation with a reasonable price tag for the amount of food and drink. read more

The food is always good. They don't have the largest selection of maki which is usually all I order so I've narrowed down my favorites from here. I'm still trying new things occasionally but you can see I'm a creature of habit. The Hawaiian roll was my least favorite this go around as it had a fishy smell and taste but I think that's because it was deep fried. The nigiri my friend ordered and rated 7/10 overall. This visit was the first time I felt like my waitress was somewhat rude to me. She was short and snippy with my but maybe I just mistaken her personality. She has waited on me before and I don't recall having that same impression though. Great place for happy hour, a little pricey otherwise. Definitely recommend and will continue to come back. read more

I ordered a few sushi plates from this place, and my friend and I loved our uni--it was delicious. I would pay extra $$$ just for uni. I've been to the restaurant's location in Houston plenty of times. When I came here, I already knew what I wanted to order since it was the same menu as the Houston location, and the interior was similar to the Houston location. There are plenty of parking spots in the area, and they're free. read more

Received a $10.00 coupon. Hadn't been in 3 years, so decided to go. New menu and higher prices. No lunch specials. Rolls were unappetizing and smaller than before. Disappointing all around. Won't return. Things change! 54 read more

Blue Sushi is a modern establishment with not only sushi but a variety of dishes. It's good for a date, friend and family outing, and even for a larger group before a night out. It's not unusual to see a group of teenagers dressed up getting ready to leave for prom. My Japanese friend didn't necessarily think the sushi here is the most authentic. Yet they are still fun and delicious. I like the Shishito peppers (not hot) and Ceviche for the table and then individual maki for each person. I wish there were more options with eel, as that's a personal favorite. *Be sure to take advantage of the happy hours occurring daily!* read more

Food=excellent Service= 1st time (meh) 2nd time (excellent) Management=clueless First of all, why a kids meal at a sushi restaurant? We were with a friend and her son,who was only 14, so over 12, didn't eat. My wife eats very, very little and would have liked a bento box, but for some reason, management doesn't think adults order Bento boxes. If you think people are just being cheap because they want a kids portion, then I think you are losing money. My wife shared my meal with me, and the son went to Chick-fil-A. Two meals lost and two not so happy customers. But management knows best. read more

We haven't had sushi since we moved from south of Chicago so we were excited, it did not disappoint. Server was great, friendly and knowledgeable of the menu.
