Bluefin Sushi Bar & Ramen

Sushi Restaurant $$ 4.5 (684)


This restaurant combines a cozy and modern ambiance with a menu that features mostly authentic Japanese dishes. While many dishes, especially ramen, are praised for their rich flavors and freshness, some customers noted a few areas lacking in authenticity, particularly in sushi styles that lean towards American preferences. Service quality is generally consistent, but can vary during busy times.

" I visited for dinner and tried their vegan ramen. I loved the unique twist given with the kale noodles! The creamy broth was comforting, and I appreciated the thoughtful vegan options. The atmosphere is casual, ideal for a laid-back meal. While the service was quick, I feel they could improve on menu knowledge—our server didn’t seem well-versed with the vegan items. Overall, it was a good experience and I’d definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was impressed with the variety of options available at Bluefin. The spicy miso ramen was wonderful, and my companion loved the veggie sushi they offered. The atmosphere had a warm and friendly vibe, making it a great spot for family dinners. The staff were attentive, but it seemed a bit crowded, which created a slight delay in our order. I’ll definitely come back to explore more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Bluefin based on the recommendations I’d received and it was a delightful surprise! The ramen was rich with flavor and the sushi was fresh and beautifully presented. The staff were attentive without being overwhelming. Overall, a great experience, perfect for sushi lovers or ramen enthusiasts! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit to Bluefin was a mixed bag. The ramen was quite good, but the server we had seemed a bit forgetful. We waited longer than expected for our drinks. The sushi was a fun blend of flavors, but I wish they had more consistency in freshness across the rolls. The vibe was lively, and kids are welcomed, which is a plus. Would consider returning if they iron out some of these issues. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bluefin clearly strives for quality, and it shows. The sashimi was incredibly fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. My group ordered a mix of sushi and ramen, and we left happy and satisfied. The ambiance was charming, making it easy to relax and enjoy the meal. Service was generally good, though we had to request refills a few times. Overall, a pleasant experience, I’d recommend trying their chef’s specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Bluefin for lunch and was pleasantly surprised! Their selection of rolls is extensive and unique. I had the California roll and a spicy tuna roll, and both were fresh and delicious. I wasn’t too keen on the atmosphere during the lunch rush—it felt crowded and a bit chaotic, but service was great. A solid choice for a quick sushi fix. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bluefin has become my new favorite place in town for sushi! The fish was incredibly fresh, and I loved their innovation with some of the rolls. The atmosphere is chic but relaxed, great for both group and solo diners. Service was friendly, though a tad slow during peak times. Overall, this place is a winner in my book! " (*Curated Review*)
