Service wasn't bad with timing however I imagine it could be slower with more people. Ordered one of the lunch specials as i wanted to try the sushi! Sushi was good! My husband ordered a korean dish, it was good but not the best we've had. I can't remember what it was. A nice touch to the menu to have as an option was to add the tempura to your combo. It was great to be able to try and I enjoyed it here.

The service is top-notch--friendly, attentive, and efficient. One of the best parts? You get your own private booth, which makes the dining experience feel more relaxed and personal.

The service is incredible here, and the vibe is cool-chic. Just loving the atmosphere here…read more As for the food, don't expect it to be a "traditional Izakaya" here, but that's not a bad thing. They do the "traditional" dishes with a twist / fusion. For example, the black cod is usually feel heavy with the miso based sauce, but they added some acidity to the sauce and they made the black cod taste rich and light (not to mention the black cod was perfectly cooked); traditionally the Brussels Sprouts would be finished by tossing balsamic vinegar over it. Sometimes that would still feel heavy. Instead, they tossed it with strawberry vinaigrette. So the acidity is very light and not too sweet. We finished our meal with the Yokai Signature Maki. Yes, they SHOULD be proud of this Maki enough to put their name on it. They hit it on the nail with the taste profile. I have a zero tolerance with spiciness, so they put the spicy mayo on the side, and I encouraged my wife to dip the Maki with it. She confirmed my suspicion that the spicy mayo took the maki to another level. We definitely will come to try other dishes. Edit: they comped us a slice of Matcha Cheesecake. While it is still not my cup of tea, but I was very impressed with how good it taste. My "dislike" is with cheesecakes because they feel heavy. Though it is still on the heavy side for me, but as soon as I spoon in a bit of the strawberry sauce, it just lightened up the whole thing. They have successfully amazed me with how well they play with taste.

I had high hopes of this izakaya but unfortunately the expectations fell short…read more The vibes were fun, but the restaurant is quite cramped and a bit too loud. I felt I had to shout in order for my friend to hear me who was sitting right across from me. I ordered: - brussel sprouts ($12) - tasty but salty - shrimp risotto ($22) - rice uncooked & salty - corn croquette ($10) - this was good - skewers sampler ($34) - quite overpriced for 6 skewers - forgot what drink was call but it was $8-$10 and was also very bland Everything was just overly salty. The only items I would order again is the brussel sprouts and corn croquette. However, portion size was quite small and not worth it overall.

Solid 4 stars! I really enjoy the maki platter from sushi blue! They don't seem to have a website…read moreand it's not already on Yelp so I found out about it via Doordash. So i was a bit skeptical. But I'm glad I take the risk cuz it was good! And I've tried quite a few sushi takeout during these covid months. We ordered the 42 pcs maki platter. It comes with 6 California, 10 red dragon, 10 caterpillar, 10 dynamite, and 6 spicy salmon. With tax and fees it comes to about $60. (If not doordash maybe closer to $50). The size of the rolls are big and the ingredients are fresh. And I'm so surprised that the rice actually tastes vinegary! This is rare for Maki takeout platter! Tho it is a tad bit too sour, if they can reduce the vinegar by a little it would have been perfect. And their rolls are not drenched with sauce yet each ingredient is so flavorful. I really enjoy the caterpillar roll, it has grilled eel inside it was so good. I think overall it is a very reasonable price and the Maki quality is good. It was also relatively quick so we didn't wait long until the food arrives at our door step.

This is a family run business by a husband and wife team with the help of their daughter…read more There are a couple of things that sushi blue stood out to me, in a good way of course. Firstly, I love the fact they give you a choice to choose between 5 or 9 pieces for their specialty rolls. I'm the kinda gal that loves variety but can't afford the luxury with rolls as they are often times too filling. At sushi blue, I can have my variety of rolls and eat it too! The second thing that differentiated sushi blue from other Japanese restaurants were their prices. I was amazed how much cheaper they were than some of the neighborhood sushi restaurants but let me assure you, the taste was just as good. For example, my black dragon roll would average $17 else where, but it was only $13 here. The texture of the rice can be a bit better but the quality of the ingredients was on par with my other favourite sushi restaurants. We will for sure order from sushi blue again!

They made a mistake saying 2 adults 2 seniors but it was supposed to be 1 adult and 2 seniors but they fixed it even before we complained! And we couldn't finish and they said " don't worry about it have a happy new year" then talked about how they liked a certain dessert and those staff were so nice and was a great experience! Would definitely come back when in town!

Good experience overall. My son & I stumbled upon this place while driving around looking for…read moresomewhere to eat with decent ratings (I would give it a mid four... 4.5 to be exact... we need some intermediate marking options Yelp!). Here's why: PROS: Location - off a main road, easy to find, parking is free Menu options - Good selection of items Taste & Presentation of food - Very good... food was tasty (with the exception of the Pad Thai in my opinion) and the seafood was fresh. Portions were good too. Service - Very attentive, quick and professional staff; conversation toward the end made them even better! Value - Price for all you can eat was very reasonable, worth it if you ask me! CONS: Ambiance - Floor was slippery (literally the entire floor surface, as though it had buildup of substance, it was odd.). Also the seating and general look of the place is quite old & outdated. IN SUMMARY: Overall ambiance is a factor in deciding on a restaurant, but is more important to me for a special occasion or on date night. When I dine out, taste, service and value are what mean the most to me. As for this restaurant, I would for sure go back! It's a great little local spot. As I upload the pics I'm also getting hungry again and that's always a good sign!!!

It was pretty good. Pork cutlet was decent. AAA beef teriyaki was OK. Fried rice was OK. The green onion taste was strong. I like that it was separated from the pork cutlet. Assorted maki (Cucumber & salmon) was ok. Vegetables were decent. They had a nice stir fried taste. The salad was ok. Miso soup was decent though the tofu was too firm. The green tea ice cream was pretty good (I ordered red bean but they were out so they changed it).

I'm not going to lie, I'm confused by the decor. It's like a mix between a sports bar and a sushi place. I think it's the big heavy oak wood bar that dominates the restaurant combined with the typical uncomfortable bench seats... but yet there's some proper tables and chairs. It just throws me off a bit. No matter, the food is good. Their salmon poké bowl is delicious. The description is that it includes, Sushi Rice with Salmon, Avocado, Kani, Cucumber, Tobiko, Wakame, Green Bean, Corn, Mango, Mayo. I asked for a side of spicy mayo and it really kicked it up a notch. Next time I'll ask them to make it with spicy mayo instead. I'm pretty sure it had pineapple instead for mango though and honestly, it brightens up the dish. The guys running the place are really nice and the service is great. Super friendly and really welcoming. Everything that was being served to the other tables looked fantastic. I really do need to start trying other items on their menu. 3.5 for now. :)
