What People Are Saying About Blue Ribbon Sushi

The Editor

The Scene – It's date-central in the back dining room, where, as the evening wears on, the canoodling gets increasingly less discreet. Seats up front--especially at the sushi bar--are best for those who enjoy watching the swift, masterful movements of the sushi chefs. Since it's a favorite with just about every sushi lover in the city, the restaurant is nearly always packed with everyone from suits to Soho locals dressed in whatever suits their mood. – – The Food – Order anything listed on the fresh sheet, even alarming-sounding fish like Japanese horse mackerel--a…

Delicious and super fresh

by lj33146 at Citysearch

I had heard such great reviews about Blue Ribbon Sushi that I decided I needed to check it out for myself. It most certainly lives up to all of its hype. The fish is super fresh and delicious. I would 100 % recommend Blue Ribbon Sushi!

  • Pros: Some of the freshest sushi in all of new york
  • Cons: There can be a long wait

Bad customer service

by CoyOctober at Citysearch

I've been to many sushi places and blue ribbon did not live up to the hype. This small cozy sushi hut doesn't take reservations (which, in NYC I hear is a sign that the restaurant is really good). The wait on a Tuesday night for 2 people was about 20 minutes. The waiter tried to be really helpful but it didn't help when he forgot to serve our appetizers. Our main course arrived and when asked about the appetizers the waiter apologized and sent them after we were done with our dinner. (no charge of course, but I'd like to have my dumplings before the sushi, not when I'm getting ready to eat desert). The sushi was good, the rolls were nothing special. The eel was fresh and so was the shrimp, but again- nothing special. I've had sushi that tastes exactly the same way in other restaurants and I don't think I would make a special trip out to Blue Ribbon again. not worth the wait, or the money for that matter.
