Medium sashimi platter

No idea why this place is rated anything lower than 4.5 stars. All I can speak for is the experience I've had multiple times now. The fish is very fresh I've gotten the medium sashimi platter every time and it's been amazing and the service has been really great too. Don't sleep on this place plus the outdoor seating creates a great vibe especially at night.

the bluefin tuna, Ora King salmon, yellowtail belly, and mackerel sushi

Really good sushi and everything tasted super fresh. Got the bluefin tuna, Ora King salmon, yellowtail belly, and mackerel. The Ora King salmon and yellowtail belly were my favorites. Definitely coming back!

Karage - it was ok

Located on the heart of Montrose on Honolulu Ave, this restaurant looks very welcoming and cozy from the outside. We came here for early lunch and ordered a few items on the menu. -Karage - it was okay. Pieces were big which was nice but there were some fatty pieces and little meat. I wasn't too big of a fan of the sauce either. - Ramen - broth and noodles flavors were good, but the egg was completely wrong and didn't have the umami flavors. It was just a hard boiled egg, which was disappointing. But my son really enjoyed the ramen and says he wants to come back for the ramen. - Caterpillar roll - mediocre rolls, that are a bit more on the smaller side. Flavor was fine, it was to be expected. - Beef bento box - also just ok. There were only about 3-4 pieces of beef, and most of it was vegetables. Nothing special. We'll probably come back here for the ramen but will probably avoid other items.

I love Blue Fish. I'm so saddened reading the reviews about the bad experiences they've had. Every time I go it's delicious, beautifully displayed, and always fresh. Staff are also incredibly friendly and the vibes are immaculate. I've been eating here for 13 years and it is my go-to!

There are seating area both indoor & outdoor. So nice sitting outside in a beautiful weather. The Service: Hannah was taking care of our table. Super friendly & efficient. Her smile definitely brighten our day. She is very attentive and always checking on every table if customers need something. Excellent customer service!! The Food: When we dine with the kids and they couldn't really eat raw fish. We always look for options on the menu that they can eat. Here... tons of options! We like it. Under entree, we ordered chicken teriyaki, salmon teriyaki, bulgogi and assorted tempura. They are plated like a bento box, there are also salad, rice and miso soup. Definitely a great meal with good price! Seafood Yakisoba is one of our favorite noodles dishes. Huge portion! Perfect to share. Lots of seafood and the noodles has great texture. We also tried their two new rolls, Princess Roll (no rice) & Raging Crab Roll. They are both plated beautifully. Princess Roll has no rice so if you are cutting down your carbs, you got to try this roll. There are so many good stuffs in Raging Crab Roll, crab meat, crab stick, shrimp tempura & etc. The Parking: Large parking lot at the back of the restaurant and across the street too. Free!

Bluefish is honestly my go-to at this point. I've been there a bunch of times and every single time I've gone, I've enjoyed it. Like, I don't even second guess it anymore when I'm deciding where to eat. The food is just consistently good, which is rare. I've tried a few different things and nothing's been disappointing. It's one of those places where you know what you're getting and it's always solid. The vibe is chill too, not too loud or stressful, just a good spot to actually sit and enjoy your food. And the service has always been good whenever I've gone, no issues there. Overall it's just become my regular spot without me even really planning it that way. I keep going back because it's easy and it's always a good experience.

Honestly I'd probably give a 3.5. The service is amazing all of the staff is friendly. The place itself is cute too. I like the outdoor seating area. The food however is pretty meh. The handroll was pretty good but compared to other sushi it just didn't wow me as much.

Decent lunch experience on a Tuesday. It's a great place to come if you want to sit outside on a nice day to have sushi. I come here more for the ambiance than the sushi experience and it's ok quality. I think it's not the best fish in the area but it'll do. Service is good. Dishes leave you wanting more compared to the cost.

Packaging on the salmon skin.

NO Stars! This place is so unsanitary and don't care about the quality of their food. Placed an order for pickup. When I got home the salmon had been cooked in the packaging!!!! Way to poison us. Never coming back here. Go elsewhere!

The gyozos were your basic gyozos, you know what you're going to get with them. The scallop with uni was decent, feel it lacked a missing flavor profile that was needed. The wagyu with uni, on the other hand, was really tasty. We also got the salmon collar, which was pretty big in size, and had a decent amount of meat on it. But it was your standard salmon. For rolls, we got the Mr. Crab and Miss. Crab. The Miss Crab has blue crab and avocado topped with seared scallop, masago, kewpie mayo, sesame seeds. It was decent but really felt like something was missing with it. The Mr. Crab has crab mix, shrimp tempura & baked freshwater lobster in soy paper topped with eel sauce. This was more flavorful and would be the one I recommend among the two. Overall, decent sushi spot that didn't necessarily stand out amongst the items we ordered. I would recommend the Mr. Crab and A5 wagyu with uni, but you can skip on the other items.

The staff were attentive and friendly, and the food itself tasted amazing. Prices are slightly on the higher side, but considering its location inside the Americana, it's quite reasonable. The restrooms were also spotless, well-maintained, and very high-end. However, there was one major issue that really bothered me. What appeared to be the head sushi chef--a man wearing a baseball cap and glasses--was constantly checking his smartphone and texting while preparing hand rolls. While urgent personal matters happen, he continued handling and making sushi immediately after using his phone without washing or sanitizing his hands. It felt unhygienic and showed a serious lack of basic food safety awareness. If not for that, this would have been an easy 5-star experience. Because of that hygiene lapse, I'm giving it 4 stars, and I'm honestly on the fence about whether I would return.

We were seated promptly by the friendly host and our effusive, upbeat waitress took our order. I got the Garlic Albacore roll ($20), which was a unique, exceptional dish - delicate albacore on top of spicy tuna, a sour lemon (ponzu) sauce with rich garlic, and crispy onion and garlic on top. Somehow, this roll captured all the flavors - savory, sour, crispy, and sweetness all in one go. Unique and exceptional. The rest of my family got the Tonkotsu Ramen, Salmon Bento Box, and Alaskan rolls, all which were excellent. A special word must be made for the staff. We were seated promptly, our kids' orders taken first so they could start eating earlier, we were promptly offered a free switch to a different bowl of Ramen when, on delivery, we were informed it may be somewhat spicy (which we didn't employ - it was perfect!), and all food came out within 10-15 minutes. The inside is unassuming and spartan, as is common for sushi joints, and prices are quite reasonable. Bonus points for being right next to Handel's ice cream (another 5* review in my catalog) for a perfect, easy dessert and great outdoor vibes. While sushi tends to be fairly uniform across restaurants, Haruka deserves special celebration for several unique, impeccable rolls and exceptional service. A new local favorite - we will return soon! Food: 4.5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 4.5/5

A dear friend and I caught up for her belated birthday at Haruka Sake And Sushi, which was once the home of one of our favorite sushi restaurants years ago in Inchiban. Neither of us could recall how long it's been since Ichiban left, but we were amazed that neither of us have tried this replacement since it opened sometime around the pandemic. We both loved to support local businesses in our old neighborhood, so we were excited to see what the new restaurant did to the place. Was it a blissful evening filled with sake, sushi, and stories, or was this place a bit far off from what we happily remembered it to be!? PURCHASE(S) Sapporo Breweries Sapporo Premium Beer 4.9% ABV 22floz Bottle ($9.00 x2): Rich amber color, malty sweet aroma, low body, light malty sweet flavor, clean smooth finish, and light malty sweet aftertaste. Always a favor with sushi! Deep Fried Shishito Peppers ($9.50): Butter sautéed shishito peppers with ponzu sauce, these slightly spicy tasty treats were fun to nibble on between sushi rolls! Sesame Chicken Karaage ($12.50): A bountiful amount of deep-fried sesame seasoned chicken pieces, this was a meal itself as I had to stop myself from feasting on these hot tender crispy nuggets! Garlic Albacore Fresh Cut Roll 8pc ($18.95): Albacore on top of a spicy tuna roll, accompanied by refreshing cucumber and topped with crispy onion and garlic served with a savory garlic ponzu sauce, this was an aromatic delight with plump succulent pieces of fish that melted in your mouth! Lion King Baked Cut Roll 8pc ($18.95): Baked spicy tuna on top of salmon wrapped California roll topped with smelt eggs, green onions, and unagi sauce, each flavorful packed piece was the size of shumai that almost made me snore than roar due to an onset of food coma! Hot Night Tempura Cut Roll 8pc ($17.95): Jalapeño, spicy tuna, sriracha on top of shrimp tempura roll, mild spicy crunch and spicy mayo on top, a beautifully-presented roll with warming spices from start to finish, I was fanning down a bit. Salmon Crazy Tempura Cut Roll 8pc ($17.95): Spicy chopped salmon on top of shrimp tempura roll, topped with spicy mayo and green onions, another beautifully-presented roll this time with buttery salmon and a light sweet tempura casing. SERVICE Warmly greeted by a young hostess, she asked if the bar was fine (which it was) and led us there where we were then met by a friendly gentleman who gave us menus and glasses of water. After a few annoyed attempts by our female server to take our order (we weren't ready), we finally got our shit together and threw it down! Within minutes, everything arrived like an assembly line with minimal space to put it all... but we managed. With plenty of leftovers, they kindly packed everything up, we paid, and off we went into the night - arigato! PARKING (FREE): They shared parking within a smallish strip mall that featured a handful of other businesses such as Handel's Homemade Ice Cream, Rice & Nori, Kobeissi Properties, and more. Otherwise, there were spots along the main drags of Foothill Blvd. and Oakwood Ave. - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A clean modern open spacious layout with plenty of barstool, booth, and table seating, and a quieter small back dining room. The bar counter gave access to the chefs as you watched them prepare each creation. No promotional items at all, while the decor was minimalistic Japanese. A decent amount of natural lighting entered through the front doors and windows while an assortment of electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were no TVs while faint music played in the background. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Haruka Sake And Sushi was a wonderful replacement for our beloved Ichiban, and we will definitely return! The food was fresh and tasted wonderful, the portions rocked, the menu was vast with plenty of options, the prices were comparable, and the service was outstanding (sorry for making the server wait for us). And, I preferred to support small mom & pop businesses (they had three total locations). I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $126.00 BEFORE any discounts, points usage, and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS
