The whole experience was great. This was some of the better sushi I've had in recent years. Too bad it's a drive for me to Carlsbad...or maybe that's good. It could get expensive. It was busy on a Tuesday night, but staff was friendly and checked-in at a good pace. Most of their dishes are metal, even the ramen bowl and drinking glasses. It was dim lit, but not too dark. I always order a rainbow and a dragon roll. Everything down to the rice and roll were perfect. My friend got the tonkotsu ramen. He said it was his favorite broth. Then he made it red and was in heaven.

I visited Hooked on Sushi a few days ago and had an average experience. My first impression was…read morethat the restaurant was very dark inside. Food: The menu offers a wide selection of sushi rolls and bento boxes. When the miso soup came, I noticed that it was watery. The teriyaki chicken did not come out very hot.

It's become our favorite date night spot, and after all this time, we've never had a bad experience. Our absolute favorite appetizer is the pork belly skewers. They are seriously unreal--they legit melt in your mouth and are packed with so much flavor. We also love the pork belly bao buns, which are just as delicious. The Brussels sprouts are another must-order. They're hands down the best Brussels sprouts we've ever had, and we can't come here without getting them. We also always order the spicy garlic edamame. The sauce is so good that we actually dip our sushi rolls in the leftover edamame sauce, and it's honestly a game changer. (The pricing is also unbeatable for how good the food is). Every sushi roll we've tried has been incredibly fresh and beautifully made. We always end up ordering way more food than we planned because everything is just that good. For drinks, the Cracked Summer is our go-to cocktail every single visit. It's refreshing, delicious, and pairs perfectly with the food. The atmosphere is perfect for a date night, the staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the quality is consistently amazing every time we visit. Blue Ocean has become more than just a restaurant to us--it's one of our favorite monthly traditions. If you're anywhere near Carlsbad, do yourself a favor and eat here. We recommend it to everyone, and we'll definitely be back next month for another amazing meal.

Boy does this place pack in a crowd! It was just two of us on Wednesday early evening, but we were…read moreseated immediately; no wait time at all. That was a big plus for us because we were hungry. We were seated at the main dining area but when we requested for a table so we could sit side by side versus across from each other (the room was sooo loud that we couldn't hear each other) the waiter (darned we didn't catch his name) acknowledged and rearranged a table nearby so that we could sit beside each other. Another plus! The place was busy busy and sooo noisy. We were fine with the wait to take our order (about 15 minutes), which gave us enough time to peruse the menu. We ordered the Omasake box with side of sushi rice, Salmon Teriyaki entree with xtra veggies and no rice, a side of Kale salad, and Passion Fruit Cheesecake for dessert. No menu drinks; just water, which came aplenty, as our glasses were never empty while we continually guzzled down our h20 (this summer has been such an excruciatingly hot one) - another plus for this continued h20 service! Now for our order: The Box came immediately, and without hesitation my companion dove in with chopsticks already waiting in hand. I picked on his meal, while waiting for mine. The Salmon entree came about ten minutes later, while I salivatingly and happily endulged myself with its delicious flavor. The Kale salad came quite late (almost like an after thought) as we were almost done with our main orders. The salad had an odor that wasn't quite pleasant - as probably most extremely green veggies do smell when grilled. I liked the taste; my companion did not, as he stated it tasted too bitter. I requested a side of ponzu sauce to tame down the bitterness, and I also ended up tossing some shredded white garnished radish noodles (left over from my companion's box meal) to mix in with the kale salad...hmmm, tasted better, but we eventually requested to have our salad to go. My companion was still hungry after his boxed meal; I was not, but we both agreed not to order anything more, a we awaited the dessert. The cheesecake dessert was the best part of our meal here, as the taste really pleased our still hungry palette. And yet another plus! All in all, the meal was pleasant. A little pricey (over $100) - thank goodness we skipped the drinks, less regular h20. Would we return? Sure. Service was great, and food was pretty good. Just a bit pricey... but then again, most sushi and seafood eateries are. There is plenty of parking and a plethora of other eateries nearby. If ones palette begs to differ from sushi or seafood.

Our server was efficient, friendly and attentive. We ordered a few rolls and tried the Popster Roll, Vegas and Lemon rolls. Each one was absolutely delicious! So fresh and not lacking at all.

Not worth the hype at all. Even with an advance reservation, we were stuck on a long waitlist. When…read morewe were finally led to the bar, our seats were covered in bakery crumbs. Staff didn't bother cleaning them or welcoming us--my husband had to clean the area and rearrange the chairs himself. The overall service and management were extremely poor. Two of the staff members seemed completely exhausted and were outright unfriendly. When we ordered drinks, they told us they had no cup holders available. Worse, when I pointed out a fly at our table, the employee just nonchalantly suggested we move to a table near the restroom hallway or outside--ruining our special celebration after we specifically reserved bar seating. We didn't even stay for the food. As locals, we definitely won't be back.
