The Scene – Sophisticated dining isn't what Times Square is known for, but this cavernous, beautifully designed restaurant, which occupies two floors of the W Hotel, is just that. A school of Brancusi-like minnows overhead and a huge glass facade that overlooks Broadway's TKTS booth keep the eye entertained. Service is professional, if occasionally overbearing. – – The Food – Extensive raw bar and sushi selections supplement the New American seafood menu. The kitchen is strongest in straightforward preparations, like a meaty crab cake with tomato aioli and a clam and…

YUMMMMMMMM!!!!
by sixnohit
My friends and I went to Blue Fin after seeing a show. We ended up showing up a half hour earlier than our reservation. We were seated immediately. We started off with a selection of sushi rolls. Those were gone in no time. I had the Lobster/Shrimp bisque. I really wanted to order another one as it was so good. Instead of having lumps of lobster and shrimp on top, there was a little salad...almost like a seafood salad. The mixture of the celery and green onions added a little extra flavor to the bisque. Only thing that I would have asked for would have been a little topping of creme fraiche. I had the Sauteed hailbut with lemon herb gnocchi, mushrooms and lump crab. I'm not a fan of gnocchi so I only ate a couple of them. The halibut was so light and flaky. Everything was cooked perfectly. For dessert I had the Upside Down Chocolate Souffle cake. OH MY GOD!!!! It was chocolate goodness. There was a nice size scoop of ice cream along side the cake. We were so full that I wanted to get a room at the W and just sleep off the food coma that I was in. The only reason I won't give 5 stars is because of the placement of the downstairs bathroom. It's right near the kitchen and server area. It's a unisex bathroom which isn't a big deal but there's only one. There's no good place to stand if there's a line. I would have gone upstairs but my foot was in an air cast and stairs are not the best for me. Other than that, I'd go back to Blue Fin again. The food was excellent.
- Pros: Everything...the food is tremendous
- Cons: Downstairs bathroom is near the kitchen/server area. No room.
