    Blue Fish is one of the prettiest Japanese restaurants I have been to with the wooden seating, wood trimmed lights overhead, silk cherry blossom trees, light blue sheer curtains. This was our third visit; we have been coming every year. Food is fresh and delicious and the wait staff has been excellent. This year, we had the Pork Dumplings, Shrimp Tempura, Out of Control (avocado, tuna), and two Super Rolls (tuna and salmon) then finished with two mochi ice creams - Birthday cake and matcha. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. Roccio was our waitress who was pleasant and took great care of us. We look forward to our next visit when we are back in town.

    Spicy Girl Roll
    Esther L.

    Any time we're on vacation, we start craving Asian food. We were all so glad to eat here! Our youngest declared this to be her most favorite meal. The restaurant's interior is pretty. The service was great- our server was kind and friendly. And we all enjoyed our meal. I had to get the MD's official cocktail of course (Orange crush) and the spicy girl roll was delicious. So filling. Thanks for a great meal! If we're ever down there again, we'll definitely stop by again. :)

    Steamed pork dumplings
    Kimberly K.

    Since I'm from Philly and I access to really authentic Chinese food I usually don't order Chinese food in areas where there aren't that many Asian populations I thought I'd try lunch at bluefish restaurant. Start off with steamed dumplings- bland tasted as if these were frozen. Ordered Kung pao chicken.- taste was very bland. Also only vegetable was large amount of celery, and a few pieces of green pepper.- normally there green peppers , water chestnuts, carrots, and a little bit of celery. I literally had to pick out probably close to a cup of celery out of my dish. Disappointed with maybe six pieces of green peppers - the sauce it was basically soy dice,maybe garlic no spice - no chili - hardly any spice for the price of $20 I feel like I could've gotten this from a takeout Chinese at a strip mall somewhere and it would've tasted a lot better than this dish. Such a shame. maybe I should've ordered the sushi or maybe beef and broccoli I would think twice before ordering any Chinese food in Ocean City as you will not find any authentic flavors.. Nothing more to say....

    Thai style Black Pepper Lo Mein
    Markita A.

    In town working for the past week and this is my second time come here. The food is delish and the staff is so nice! There is a sweet spot and if you discover it you won't have a long wait to sit down. I've tried the curry rice noodle, drunken noodles and now the Thai style lo mein. All have been fabulous! And I wouldn't be me if I didn't have a lychee martini and theirs are fantastic! Definitely saving this for future trips to OCMD.

    Their sushi is a delicacy and one of their specialties!

    The restaurant may look small but is cozy and they make great use of space, with tables designed throughout the restaurant to maximize efficiency yet make you feel like you are not be in big crowded in by others. The sushi is a strength and one of their signature dishes. There are literally all kinds of sushi for you to order. If you can dream it, they can make it. Presentation is great, too. They literally put a lot of thought into making the dining experience enjoyable and memorable. And it shows from the moment you walk into the restaurant until you leave. We were still looking at new decor and designs within the restaurant as we were leaving, too. We ordered the Godzilla sushi, which is a combination of spicy and flavorful sushi for the palate. We also had the sushi sampler (tuna, salmon, wasabi, etc.), chicken lo mein and chicken pad thai. The dishes came out pretty quickly and the presentation of each is pictured with this review. One can see the lengths they go through to present a great product that also tastes delicious. The servers were attentive and waited on us with prompt regularity. They made sure we had plenty of drinks, utensils, etc. if we needed something else, they were not far away. Even taking care of the check was handled at the table by our server, which made the visit seamless. We really recommend this restaurant if you are looking for sushi, or other Chinese and Japanese dishes. There is a lot to choose from in Ocean City, but Blue Fish can easily compete with the lot of them and should be around a long time with the dishes they serve.

    Excellent service, yummy sushi, and I loved the pumpkin creme brullee. Thank you, the ambience is beautiful for lunch and dinner.

    Place was good the first time we tried it. However, when we dined here last friday, we found hair in our tuna avocado roll- and as soon as we let our waitress know she kinda just blew us off and took a while to bring us a new one. No real apology, and it was not taken off or even discounted off our bill. The other dishes we had were okay- but the service will have me not coming back.

    Red Dragon Roll, Godzilla Roll, and Rainbow Roll
    Heather M.

    I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars! My boyfriend and I were in town for the Running Festival and we wanted to have a fancy dinner. We looked up spots on Yelp and saw this got great reviews so we decided to give it a shot. This place was hoppin in the off-season! At 6:30pm we had a 25-30 min wait for two people. We stood by the bar which only had 6 seats and was full. The bartender made a delicious mango margarita and Moscow mule for us that we took to our seats when our table was ready. It was almost exactly 25 mins of waiting for appreciated the correct wait time that was given. Now the food... my goodness it was amazing! We got the house salad thinking it was a side small bowl of salad.. this was huge! Served in a beautiful shell shaped bowl, the dressing soaked every piece of lettuce and was delicious. We then got our main course which was sushi and pad Thai! We got the Godzilla Roll, Red Dragon Roll and Rainbow Roll. I have had a lot of sushi but this was the best rainbow roll I have ever had. The avocado was perfectly ripe and creamy and the fish super fresh and melted in your mouth. We got the House Combo of chicken, beef and shrimp for the Pad Thai and it was delicious! The chicken and beef were tender, but a bit too fatty for my liking. The shrimp was perfectly cooked. Our waitress Rocio was delightful and very attentive. Even with tables still filling up as we left around 8, the entire staff had smiles and great attitudes. To say this is a place to hit is an understatement. Absolutely incredible for a night out.

    Great food, great ambiance. Would have given five stars, but the service wasn't great- once it got busier our waitress and any other service staff was MIA. We had to ask for another glass of wine, to go boxes, our check, etc.

    wow. best sushi ive ever had. we got the beef lo mein and two sushi rolls (maryland roll and crunchy roll) the crunchy roll was sooo good!!! im go glad i listened to the other reviews!! this place did not disappoint!

    Okay, my colleagues and I have mixed reviews on this one; some of us voted to give it a 5 while others marked it a 4. The night started out with me putting my name on the waitlist...only to be told they will hold my table for only 5 minutes. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET THERE IN 5 MINUTES? Thus, it loses a star. We sat almost immediately despite our name getting taken off the waitlist (we went around 3:30). The sushi rolls were good, but I honestly felt like we could get them anywhere. The scallops and vegetables and sweet and sour chicken were phenomenal (I don't like sweet and sour, but my colleagues were big fans). PAUSE--I can't believe I didn't mention this until now. THE MIXED DRINKS ARE TO DIE FOR. I got the Blueberry Lemonade. As I reflect, I would go back strictly for this drink. Service was great; our server kept calling us "honey" which I thought was nice. Overall vibes were spectacular. This place embodies "if you have time to lean, you have time to clean!" Anyways, the Blue Fish is worth the $!

    Crunchy Roll
    TB B.

    Blue Fish is always great - the staff are crazy nice , super helpful, and always so sweet to our kids. We used to come fairly regularly, but I honestly can't remember the last time we went because it's always so busy that it's hard to get a table in the summer! But we were able to go in the off season, and had a lovely lunch. The crab wontons and vegetable spring rolls were great, and I ordered a crunchy roll, while my husband got General Tso's chicken. Both were great! Lots of flavor, very fresh, nice presentation. We will definitely try to come back, hopefully we can get in :)

    Do you have poke bowls? Didn’t see them o your on line menu.

    Sorry, no poke bowls. We have great tuna avocado salad or salmon avocado salad

    Can I sit outside for lunch?

    Of course, Patio is open for lunch.

    Do you accept weekday evening reservations?

    Hi, thanks for the inquiry. We don’t take reservations, walk ins only. We hope to have the pleasure of serving you.

    Are you open in the winter months? We are visiting OC from 12/22 to 12/26/21. Your food looks yummy on the pictures!

    Not sure about exact dates but they were open the first week of December 2021 (which is off season). It was fabulous.

    Is it still takeout only? If so does anyone know when dine in is returning? Thanks, I'm really looking forward to going back.

    We are remodeling the dining room at the moment. We are expected to be open closer to end of May. Thanks

I've been eating here for 2 decades now. From when we vacationed at the grandparents place, to when we built our home down the road. I've been coming here for a long time and have eaten probably 50 meals or so from this place. Not 1 of them was bad or had an issue that bothered me. Maybe a greasy egg roll or two out of 100, but that happens on busy nights when the fryer is getting worked hard and can't hold temp or gets over crowded. It happens to all places. That being said, the egg rolls are really good! Tons of fresh veggies and usually fried to a perfect golden brown with very little residual grease left behind. The mixed combo platters are always very fresh and a good portion. From the chicken and mixed veggies, Gen tso, Hunan chicken, noodle dishes, it's all typically very good food. This place doesn't overly salt their food. They don't cover up things by adding MSG or sodium. Most dishes are simple and fresh, left for the consumer to add soy sauce as needed. I don't usually need anything unless a dab or two on my white rice when I choose that over my go to pork fried. This is fresh, quality ingredients done right.

Unacceptable, and plus, it doesn't help when the kid up front just says it's not ready yet. Of course it's not ready yet. Now we just finished eating all the food. One word: Horrible. We ordered a lot: Kung pow chicken, General Tso's chicken, Mooshi pork, curry beef, beef lo mein, pepper beef, combo fried rice, orange chicken, beef broccoli. Everything was terrible. They had all the time in the world to make all of our dishes decent but they did not. The orange chicken and General Tso chicken were absolutely hard. It seemed like they use premade or pre-cut piece of chicken because they're all the same shape and the texture was hard as a rock. The curry beef was basically as if you just got the golden curry packs from an Asian store, but watered it down so much. The lo mein was very mushy and the only thing that was redeemable about it was the large amount of beef that they did put in. However, it's sad how the beef and broccoli and the pepper beef hardly had any beef. To top it off what made it worse was how the combination fried rice did not have any color. It was just a bland thing with barely any type of umami in it. Plus the rice just felt like it was regular hard-boiled rice instead of fluffy rice that was properly stir-fried. If you're traveling from out of town for vacation here and are craving Chinese food, this is not the place. You will not be getting good quality Chinese food. This is worse than even Panda Express and if you can get better, Chinese takeout at Panda Express than a local joint here, then what's the point of going to the local joint the first place.

I feel like sometimes other places give the tiniest thin slices, but this is almost like small pieces of steak. It's a great portion for 2-4 people depending on how many items you order. The pork belly bowl was also outstanding. It was on a bed a rice that soaked a ton of the flavor. It came with zucchini and bok choy, which was a great fresh flavor to balance the belly. We made a last minute reservation and were seated super quickly. The service was so friendly from our server who was an owner and the bartender too. The food came out quick and hot, we were always checked on (but not hovered over). It was amazing to see how many regulars seemed to be there and familiar with the owners and workers too! Highly recommend! So good!!!
