Not worth the hype! – The food is just ordinary...not worth the wait! Why wait for just so-so sushi when you could really get GREAT sushi elsewhere. I love the atmosphere...but thats where it stops. BUMMER!

Call first if you are going late! – We have mixed feelings about this place. First of all, we do love the sushi. There are many creative rolls to choose from. BUT... service can be VERY slow, seating is not abundant, and worst of all - the restaurant often decides to close early with no warning!! Supposedly open to midnight on weekdays (per the website), we have twice arrived around 11 PM to find them closing up and refusing to take anyone because it was "slow so we are closing early"! BAD customer service. Several other peo... read more

Excellent Sushi, Long Wait – This is my favorite restaurant, granted due to the small size one generally has to wait on a Friday or Saturday evening for up to an hour to be seated, however I believe it's worth it. I have heard about horrible servers here but have never experienced it. We always have Aislinn who rocks and always remembers what we ordered last time! The sushi is always outstanding, I feel it is the best in the triangle

not going back – i went to sushi blues expecting the best, because that's all i kept hearing. everyone i know who had been there recommend it. i, however, cannot. the sushi is ok, acceptable by my standards (pretty high), but you pay way too much for what you get. my check ended up being over $50 for the night for what i deemed was average sushi. granted, i was ordering a la carte because i'm very particular when it comes to sushi, so that would explain for some of the cost. still, i won't be going back.

Not Good – Food was the worst I have had in 5 states! Service was poor as well.

The best Sushi on the East coast – This place is just great. The poeple, the decor, and the Sushi. The best in Raleigh!

Gives you the blues – Recently, a few friends and my self took a trip to Raliegh just to try this "great" restaurant everyone is chatting about. The atmosphere was different, waitress was wonderfull, but the food was terrible. The "japanese" dishes they served were completley butchered, and tasted nothing like anything I ever had in Japan. I was completley let down.

Remove the Blues and Eat at Sushi Blues – They have Wonderful sushi, and a variety of selections for those who prefer cooked fish. It is a great place for gathering with friends, with a date, or trying to rekindle that spark with a spouse. Not very child friendly, and could use a bit more chair space, but overall, the food is out of sight.

Sushi Blues = Sushi Superb – What a great experience. I was encouraged to visit Sushi Blues weeks ago but due to a hectic schedule was unable to do so until recently. The sushi and the staff far exceeded the expectations going into the restaurant. Take your mom, your girlfriend, or your buddies. I promise you won't be let down.
