tofu sushi (thai hippie), beef hot rock, and thai lettuce wraps are absolutely phenomenal. the sauces are all incredibly good. the drinks are small, but good. the white peach daiquiri with boba is so good. atmosphere is great; very modern and aesthetic.
service is average. can't really say we've ever had great service here, but never remarkably bad.

I placed an online order, I realized I wasn’t gonna make it to pick up on time to pick up. I called them to delay my order as soon as I placed it. I said I wanted to make sure it can be delayed so any hot food would not be sitting cold. The worker said she will square it away and didn’t let me finish talking. I went to pick up and my soup and crab rangoon’s are cold. The girl said they should be fine. Lol

We doordashed some food and we were very surprised by how good the vegan sushi was! After returning from an amazing vegan place in California, this was a pleasant surprise. Great selection of vegan options and they all rocked.
We have reordered again and we are considering dining in.

We got delivery but next time we’ll definitely go to the restaurant as it looks like it has a really great vibe. The food was all delicious and the vegan maki was especially unique with all its various combinations. A little pricey but worth the experience!

We got:

EDAMAME CHARRED-SALTED

LITTLE BENTO BOX- CRISPY
SWEET SOY TOFU

CRUNCHY CABBAGE MAKI

SHIITAKE TO ME MAKI

BITO VEGAN MAKI 2.0

*HOT POPPER MAKI

Sushi Experience №7

Went this past Sunday (12/28/24). They were out of tuna, crab rangoon and edamame. The male server came to the table next to us 2 times without saying anything like "I'll be with you shortly" as we sat there for over 20 min. I had to ask for a table setting for myself twice after food was served as there were 3 of us at the booth. We ordered the calamari and it was mostly vegetables. As this was after Christmas I think they didn't order enough and they were running out of everything and the kitchen was ordered to stretch everything with more vegatables and less proteins. Our sushi had very little meat within it and so much vegatables. I have eaten here in the past and it was fine but now I doubt I wil be back. We told the waiter about the disappointment of the calamari appetizer he was dismissive and didn't offer to swap it for something else. We had 8 rolls, 1 appetizer and 2 desserts for 3 of us and nothing really blew us away. I just feel it would have been better if they were more generous with the fish in their sushi. It was a tiny amount and same with the calamari which was 70% fried peppers, scallions and sweet potatoes. The calamari was nicely breaded but had no flavor either. This was our experience and we all agreed to go somewhere different next time.

This is my first time to a sushi bar so I might be a little harsh on this one. My taki tuna was very good but it was very small. My salmon recommended to me by the server was blah. There was no flavor to it there was no pepper there was no salt there was no nothing it was served on this bed of seaweed and ice if there was supposed to be any flavor it was removed. Considering it was $16 for four tiny slivers I was very disappointed. My cocky tuna while tasty was also $16 for five slivers The total weight of it must have been 3 oz. Very insulting for the price I know times used to be tough but this is absolutely ridiculous The atmosphere is fantastic our server was a absolute delight but I certainly would never go here again not at these prices

I made a reservation for Blue Sushi using OpenTable and was seated promptly when I arrived! Both the host and my waitress (special shout-out to Lexi) were incredibly kind, helpful, and efficient and I enjoyed my meal as I always do! As a vegan, I really appreciate that they have so many plant-based options-- including a really incredible dessert! Overall, every time I visit this restaurant, I really enjoy the whole experience and making reservations on OpenTable is easy and saves a lot of hassle (especially because it can get busy during work week evenings) :)

The food was great. However, I was charged full price for my drink, even though it was to be 50% off during happy hour. (That's minus one star.) Also, the calculated tip was on the after-tax amount. Tips are supposed to be calculated on pretax. It's a scam way of increasing tips. (That minus another star.) Great sushi, but double check your bill before you hand them a debit card or cash or whatever way you pay.

PS. They also charge a packaging fee for to-go orders...

Sushi Experience №16

Took a long time to be greeted at the hostess stand, to the point I nearly sat myself since I thought maybe that's how it worked there. The food is good, but if you're looking for legit sushi, don't go here. This is sushi for people who don't like sushi. But, if you need a basic rainbow roll or any other unadventurous cuisine, this is a decent place. The service was OK for us, the table next to us got great attention. When our server finally got to the table we were completely ready to order everything and from the drinks to the check everything took way longer than necessary to get to the table. Probably won't be back any time soon.

This restaurant is hit or miss. Sometimes you get a great waiter/waitress and other times not so much. The last time I went we did not have our drink order taken for 30 minutes so we sat even without water looking around for someone to ask for help. We eventually flagged down another waitress and she helped us but that wasnt a great experience. The food is always great, ive never had an issue with that. However, I do have an issue with most of their plates being chipped or cracked. To me, thats a health concern if things break into the food. Whoever manages this location should check their plates and cups because this has happened almost every time Ive been here.

Awesome atmosphere and service. Our waiter was so welcoming, helpful and attentive. I was in love with the decor. The origami decor hanging from the ceilings were so cool. Shin Godzilla posters throughout was the best. Old Japanese commercials were hilarious, but a nice touch to the space. The bar looked amazing with a decent option of drinks.

We had a large party of 13 co-workers. We got the sake flights, beers, assorted sashimi, a few appetizers, sushi and nigiri. All the fish was delicious and very fresh. Uni nigiri was fresh and delicious. I just wish they had a chef sashimi plate option, it would have been ideal. Love the cloudy option Sake those were sooo good. Will definitely plan to get those again if I ever come back to the area. The stand out was the black ink tuna sashimi. It was different and amazing. 5/5

We ended up walking out after having horrible service. We had one drink each and an appetizer. After sitting for an hour and never seeing our server again we called it quits. We asked the manager if we could order and he said he would find out server instead of taking our order, he can back and said she would be by shortly.... We may try this place again but not likely with better options in the area with better pricing.

Visited the restaurant two weeks ago laye after a movie for some sushi and we left very satisfied! The atmosphere has a nice and fancy restaurant feel to it. They have some Japanese artwork of Godzilla inside, which is major bonus points to me because I'm a godzilla fan. My wife and I are big on high quality sushi and that's exactly shay we got. The menu offers more than just sushi. It will be a pricier dinner, but the food is well worth the cost. It's well worth a visit!

My boyfriend and I love this place. I love sushi but my boyfriend does not like fish so we don’t get sushi together often. I love it here because there are options for people who want sushi but don’t like fish. There are so many vegetarian/vegan options and a wide variety of sushi in general so now we can go out and enjoy sushi together. One of our shared favorite rolls is the Eden roll and I personally love the flamingo lingo and rainbow roll! The crab rangoons are also the best I’ve ever had.

What a disappointment! We arrived when they opened and the place was dirty, food on tables and seats to the point of being sticky. 5-10 minutes after we were seated we were told our waitress had just arrived! Then she acted like we were an inconvenience to her day, life, whatever! The food was very, very fishy which if fresh shouldn't be such. Oh and it was happy hour so we got our bill and she said we should have asked for a happy hour menu, they don't just give them out!! What!?! We are never going back! Save your money! Not Crocker Park standards of old!!

So this isn’t really about their food it’s about their partnership with Uber… but their Thai Milk tea with mango bubbles the bomb.

So think gas almost 4$ most days. So 24.48 miles x2 because return trip to area. Then the time at 46mins one way then 10.04 where the customer can take back their tip… so you could be left with 4$ or less so realistically… slave wages? Indentured servant wages??? Oh and they sent it to me twice at the same pay price…

I’ve never had a problem with the food but the service is so weird. The timing is always off (apps served at same time as entrees, half of the dishes coming out while the rest of the group is left waiting, entrees served before drinks come out) and a few times they just never brought drinks/dishes out. Or waited until everyone else was served to let us know “oh we were out of this and that” so that’s why you didn’t get a drink and she only got half her meal. I’ve never paid for something I didn’t receive (they’ve either comped it or never rang it up in the first place) but definitely don’t go here if you expect a normal dining experience. Poor communication all around.

The space is cool with clever decor and a variety of spaces to enjoy. Service was attentive at the bar. The sushi quality for the price disappointed. The core of a good sushi roll is the rice, which should stick together and have a slight flavor. Here, the rice was fluffy and sweet. The rolls fell apart leaving more of a sweet sushi salad.

Very nice looking place. But let's be honest it's over rated. Philly- bland, Spider Maki - bland, The Beach - bland, Lion King - very good, Godzilla Bomb - very good. We would have ordered more but with more bad than good, it couldn't justify price just to try and find the good ones. Salad with ginger carrot dressing very good. Hibiscus lemonade - bad was way over the top lemonade flavor with no hibiscus taste. Like you could take.one sip and be good with bad. Dragon fruit drink was ok. Soda was watered down tasting so had to ask for a new one. Server was great and always available. Some might say complain is there's a issue with food, sorry we don't do that, we just hold first impressions. It just seems like a posh place to get big spenders in that don't know much about sushi. And I know sushi have eaten it in Seattle, NY, TX, GA, NC unfortunately all better.

My family and I really enjoy the sushi here and went there 2 times - we are very picky with sushi and although the Cleveland area is not big on sushi, this place seams to fulfil our sushi cravings. The last time, however, we arrived around 1:30pm hoping to get a table on a Sunday afternoon. Although the restaurant was almost empty, the hostess informed us that they were booked and we would have to wait for about 45 minutes. We asked if there was any chance of getting us in within 20 minutes - we were with our 4 and 5 year old so we wouldn't be able to wait because they would be famished by the time we got a table.
We left the restaurant and began to search for something near by. I was still so skeptical about the hostess answer, due to the lack of crowd at the restaurant, that somehow it occurred me to go on my Open Table app, where, to my surprise, I found a table for 4 at 1:45pm on that same day. We went back and told the hostess we had a reservation and she pretended like nothing happened...
We had a lovely meal and our server was nice, but I still can't understand why a hostess would do such a thing...they are supposed to be the "face" of the restaurant and help to get clients, not send them away.

Blue has been our favorite place for a while now. Tonight we ordered carry out at 345 to get ahead of the rush. The person confirmed our name and # and order and said to be there at 445. I showed up at 5 and there was no ordered. I waited for 30 minutes and came back, and then was told the order never happened or was never put in. Now I’m scrambling to make something work for my family, and my only offer was to “put in a new order” that maybe would be ready in 1 hour. This is so frustrating and disappointing. Not sure when we will go back.

They told us it was going to be an hour wait but we got in a bit earlier than that. We were seated in a nice secluded area which i love be ause i suffer from social anxiety. Our orders were taken and this is where it kinda goes good and bad. My son was served first which was nice because he was kept preoccupied, and me and my husband got served our starters, but about 45/50 mins in we hadn't received our main dishes yet. So they brought us some Mango Crab Ragoons which were delicious and then about another 15 mins goes by still no main dish so they brought us a Sesame Crusted dish of Calamari and Tempura Carrots, Onions, and Sweet Potato Fries...THIS WAS AMAZING! Our server Jimmy came back and told us that he found out that the sushi bar never received our order ticket so they were rushing the order then. We got our main dishes and began eating. But my friend noticed that a few of her sushi roll pieces were empty and we knew that was dew to them trying to rush and get it out to us. All in all we had a great experience. We ended up getting my friends meal taken off the bill and we even got two starters for free which were delicious. It was the weekend before Christmas, so we knew it would be hectic. Next time we go we will make sure we reserve a table or call ahead of time. We enjoyed ourselves nonetheless and we will be definitely coming back for that Coconut Crab Soup it was AMAZING! Our server Jimmy apologized so many times and was VERY accommodating. Thank you Jimmy!

Waitress was very slow and made a loud comment that something, "sucked." She needs to work elsewhere. This was one experience. Never before has anything like this happened. I will not stop going there because of one incident.

Do not order Uber Eats / delivery from here. Someone stole my order because the restaurant didn’t verify the driver or delivery code. When the driver showed up to pickup my order, he was told they released the order to someone else, and that it was my problem. Called and spoke to the manager who said that they don’t verify the drivers, and that it was my problem to try to get a refund from Uber Eats. And that I should reorder from them… Does me no good after waiting over an hour for the original order and approaching their closing time.

Don’t waste your time with this business.

Elizabeth is the epitome of what a waitress should be. She’s a great conversation holder (and starter), she had extraordinary energy and even recommend a dish we never tried; we’ll definitely add it to our meals of habit. We love coming to Blue but she made our experience like newcomers. It was fresh and fulfilling. Thank you again Elizabeth!

Went to Blue Last night, and our waiter Jimmy (James?) did an awesome job. He was very helpful and you could tell his love of the food was genuine. I always appreciate when a server is honest and steers you into ordering what's good rather than what's most expensive, and Jimmy did just that. He told us we'd be better off ordering a side of plain rice instead of fried rice, and he was right. It's way overpriced and frankly not very good. Everything else was fantastic though, and the quality service elevated the experience to a new level. Definitely recommend asking for the server we had (receipt says 'James' but he told us 'Jimmy'). Best service we've had in a very long time.

I've been back multiple times since my original post but just when I thought it couldn't get any better the newly promoted manager Tabby is the hostess for your friends birthday party. The atmosphere and food gets 10's across the board. But, when you pair that with excellent service, attention and a great personality. I can't say enough about this establishment. It is officially one of my favorite Sushi restaurants. Try the cherry bomb and everything bagels sushi. Sooooo good. The brussel sprouts were a delicious appetizer. Tabby thanks for making our night of celebration even better.

HORRIBLE Quality Sushi!
Recently visited Blue in Crocker (not a first time visit) the quality and care has diminished over the years and it drastically shows.

First, our table was filthy, the entire table top was sticky, huge turn-off but we were hungry.

We ordered 7 rolls of various sushi and we couldn't have been more unsatisfied with the quality and taste of our sushi. The rolls were very fishy tasting and the rice wasn't fresh or made properly, which both issues representing a very LOW quality sushi or un-fresh product.

I had the opportunity to genuinely speak with the owner of Blue, Anthony Hitchcock, to formally give him my opinion on my family's experience that night. I was appalled by his character and personality as an owner. He had zero remorse for the quality of food that his establishment brings to the table. He denied that the food was unappetizing and constantly debated that I was wrong for how the experience was. Obviously he had zero care or lack of understanding that all experiences are different. Anthony was very belittling, which showed in his very defensive response about how I was wrong about the poor quality sushi. I will never eat here again as Blue Sushi is far inferior to other NorthEast Ohio establishments that are half the price.

Save your sushi experience for a good quality sushi place (there are many in Cleveland that I love!) The quality of sushi makes a huge difference in the overall nutritional value, as well as, taste and texture when good quality sushi is consumed. Bad quality sushi, contains contaminants that could be harmful to the body, bad quality sushi is also prone to disease formation within the sushi. I would have expected a high end sushi restaurant to have been a good experience but Blue Sushi is clearly a dressed up low-quality serving establishment.
