    Delicious sushi boat
    Marcella N.

    Best sushi in NWA! The fish quality is exceptional, artfully presented, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the vibe of the restaurant has no parallel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Mandy is an amazing chef, and puts together rolls that are creative yet approachable. Every single piece of sushi was delicious. We will be regular customers.

    Nachos

    Food was fantastic, drinks and service were just as good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Loved the atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had a view of the chef and it was entertaining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Philly roll, yellowtail, salmon, veggie roll

    Food and service amazing as usual. We always take friends visiting the area to our favorite spot. Watch out for photobombing by the staff.

    Shaggy Roll

    Excellent service, delicious food, you could really feel the freshness. Also had the garlic edamame but ate it so fast I could not get a picture. Definitely recommend 10/10.

    Rainbow Roll & Whipple Roll
    Audrey W.

    This is our second time coming and the service/hospitality was top tier! The food was delicious too.. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We can't wait for them to just get a little more spacious, as they have plans to expand.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Pineapple saketini
    Kim M.

    Another great Blu sushi bistro. Cozy and charming historic building and they also have patio seating. Lillian was our lovely waitress du jour. We put a dent in some garlic edamame and coconut tempura shrimp. I sipped a pineapple saketini and we were so eager to devour our specialty rolls - (shaggy dog, Rainbow) that I forgot to take a picture. Mandy rolls some great sushi Adorable spot in historic downtown Rogers and great food!

    DTR roll
    Sara S.

    Wow! This is definitely our new spot! We loved everything about this place. The service was amazing! Even though we came in late, our server was so kind and laidback. Did not rush us at all! The spot was cool as could be and even had a tv for one of the games on which is really cool. The good and drinks were so so good!! Can not wait to come back again!

    Whipple roll and DTR roll
    Rebecca B.

    Sushi was great, we shared the Whipple roll and the DTR roll. Both were delicious, but honestly hard to differentiate between the two. We started with the poké lettuce wraps. The fish was fresh and delicious, but I would have preferred it to be marinated in soy/ponzu as I added some soy for more flavor. We went for weekday lunch and although there were only 4 other tables service lacked. I asked for a fork 3 times before getting one and we had empty water glasses multiple times.

    Shaggy Dog Roll
    Rob H.

    The food is amazing - the service was awesome - and love the location. I had the Darwin roll and it perfect. The Sakitini was new to me but very tasty. There is limited seating and I'd recommend a reservation on the weekend.

    The best sushi I've had in years! I've already been here twice in the past three weeks, so it's definitely a spot worth coming to time and time again. The "Love" roll is delicious!

    Absolutely delicious and fresh, hokkaido scallops and red albacore.
    Denise C.

    The chef is so attentive and on point. The chef suggested this dish and it was amazing. The scallops and Red Albacore were so fresh!

    Chef's Choice
    Stephen C.

    You wouldn't think Rogers, AR and fresh sushi are a thing, but we love this place and the chef's choice is the way to go!

    Food was okay. Had y he scLlpp appetizer which was winderful. Other sushi fare was ok. Need better air conditioning. Poor service. We arrived @ 5:35, ordered around 5:50 but we were not until 6:40. It's sushi...how long can it take. Several tables came in well after us but we served sooner than us. No one offered an explanation. Our waitress just went MIA. it's a small place less than 10 tables inside and 5 outside so where did waitress go?? No apologies for extreme delay. I won't go back. Better places with better food and much better service

    Food was delish. They were a little understaffed so had to wait a bit longer for food & refills but they were still so nice! Would come back

    Wow! Didn't realize we were staying in town on Prom and wedding weekend. Downtown crazy busy. Nick…read moreat the Compton recommended Blu. SO glad he did! Tenny was our waiter. Super job! Great recommendations and when the special we ordered was sold out we were able to change the fish for the same prep. Started with a blueberry margarita, which was tart but excellent. I like grapefruit (I peel it like an Orange and eat the wedges without sugar) so right up my alley. Even my wife (who doesn't like grapefruit) loved this drink. Had the Ceviche app. Really good. I am kind of a ceviche expert (have been eating it and a similar food called kelaguin all over the world) and this may be the best we have had in the States. We shared the lobster ravioli and a pecan crusted red snapper (the monkfish was sold out) and both were great. Ravioli was exceptional. Three pieces, shrimp and perfect sauce. Lots of lobster in the filling. The snapper which again was the substitute for the monkfish was light with a more subtle flavor but was served with really good mashed potatoes and broccoli. Unfortunately the ravioli came out first (had to change the fish so slight delay) so the strength of the ravioli flavor would have been better as the second shared entree due to the subtleness of the pecan crusted snapper. But really that is not a complaint. Tight rooms, packed with tables and people. Even so not too loud to have a conversation and everyone was super nice. We will eat here again next time we visit.

    Ordered the Duner and Chefs choice. The Chef's choice ended up basically just being the Duner but…read more$5 more expensive and worse tasting. The presentation of the rolls was horrible--looked like it was made on an assembly line without any care for what made it onto each individual piece of the roll. The rolls also just weren't made well and many of the pieces fell apart after attempting to pick them up. Worst part of the whole thing was the embarrassing attempt to have lemon be apart of the rolls. The lemon slices were big and non-uniform--they looked like they belonged slotted on the rim of a glass of water not on a sushi roll. Instead of providing a nice hint of tartness, the lemon just overpowered any other flavor. Beyond that, they were just carelessly strewn across the top of the roll, so the coverage for individual pieces was laughable. Horrible experience. Up until this time, I would have been recommending Blu over Junto, but now I'm not even sure it ranks higher than Sushi House. Don't plan to be back anytime soon.
