Best WLM Reviews

Save room for dessert, and order the mocchi ice cream! You will enjoy clean, fresh, authentic Japanese cuisine at Bluefin. Upon entrance, you will notice the cleanliness of the restaurant and the uniformed, professional sushi chefs. The staff were kind and polite, especially Gregory, allowing us to dine in at 8:30 pm even though they close at 9:00 pm during weekdays.
Indoor/Outdoor/Bar seating: Plenty of seating at this location. We sat inside.
Delicious Food: Clean, fresh and flavorful. Ordered the mushroom miso soup with shiitake mushroom, grilled salmon with grilled vegetable, teriyaki sauce, wagyu beef carpaccio with onions, chive, goma-soy dressing, sesame seed, albacore dynamite roll, salmon avocado roll, and mochi ice cream. Loved everything.
Excellent Service: Gregory, Jason and Raymond were professional, kind and attentive during our dining experience and each interaction.
Parking: Free parking in parking lot. Valet parking is also available but it is closer to Javier's, so free parking is the better option.
I highly recommend this restaurant for a clean, fresh, authentic Japanese dining experience, and thank you, Gregory, Jason and Raymond for a memorable experience!
First off, they told us to choose sit inside or outside but said outside is warmer since inside they had door open with ac on. Kinda strange to have ac on in the winter especially when the open door is blowing in cold air so needless to say, it was not a warm dinner inside. But we didn’t want to sit outside either.
Secondly, hot tea is $3. Ludicrous. I can understand $1 but the audacity to charge $3…
Thirdly, the special rolls are so pricey at $35+. They were tasty but I know places that are equally delicious at $15.
Fourth, nigiri sushi was good! No complaints here, fish was fresh and tasty. We ordered a second plate of nigiri.
The fried dishes were so-so, the popcorn shrimp was fine but the fried fish stuff had too thick of a batter.
Sautéed octopus was great and very well cooked.
Overall, it’s a nice place in a nice area that charges a bit too much for good food but it is what it is.
They gave us a cake for the birthday though. How nice!
The food was good, but the service was very disappointing. Both the server and the manager were rude and unprofessional, making us feel unwelcome. We felt sorry for the owner, who has to deal with staff that might drive customers away. Our meal cost $550, and though we were seated at 7:30 PM and The food was good, but the service was very disappointing.

Our meal cost $600, and though we were seated at 7:30 PM and served quickly by 8:05 PM, the poor service means we won't return.
Quality fish. Traditional and fresh sushi. Staff could be a little friendlier and smile more but it wasn’t bad.
Family favorite! Good food, attentive staff and nice atmosphere.
Located next to Starbucks. There's a small outdoor patio that allows you a peak at the ocean.
If you don't know what to order, you can order the Bento, which comes with an assortment of items. Includes sashimi, sushi, tempura, and more.
Great place, beautiful view of ocean if you sit outside. The food is good and the service is great as their waiters are very nice. The only problem is their prices! I think most of their foods are little overpriced and could be less expensive even though the quality is good.
We really liked their salmon and yellowtail belly sushi.
This sushi is sooooo fresh. Daily fish deliveries. The sushi chefs have created amazing yet traditional sushi sublely dressed to perfection. I don't dare dip these in wasabi soy for fear of masking the flavor perfection. Most memorable on this visit was Kinmedai (Golden Eye Snapper). My Japanese-born girlfriend loves this place, enjoys her conversation with the sushi chef, and happily declares this is not "California Sushi"
