Blue Sushi Sake Grill - Sushi Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

We came in for lunch and spent the entire meal swatting away fruit flies. After finishing our dishes, we realized we had been seated right next to a fruit fly trap, which was pretty gross. What made it worse was that the restaurant wasn't even half full and there were plenty of empty tables elsewhere. Not sure why we were seated there. This used to be one of our go-to spots, but this was a very disappointing and unpleasant experience. read more

Blue Sushi: 10/10 Uber Eats: 0/10 Uber Eats canceled my order more than two hours after it was placed and over an hour after it was supposedly "picked up," yet it was never delivered. I also paid an additional fee for priority delivery, meaning it would arrive sooner. There was no explanation, and the delayed cancellation left me scrambling to reorder while wondering whether I could trust the replacement order to arrive. Thankfully, Blue Sushi was beyond accommodating. They immediately put my second order together, and when it arrived, it was absolutely delicious. Their customer service was exceptional, and as someone with celiac disease, I especially appreciate the care they take with dietary needs. While I'm incredibly disappointed with Uber Eats, I'm so grateful for the way Blue Sushi handled the situation. Great food, outstanding customer service, and genuine respect for their customers. You've earned a new loyal fan. Thank you!! read more

Decent sushi place. All the appetizers were very good, but I didn't event the rolls as much. All the rolls we got were a bit plain. read more

Wow what a change from my last time here AND how things are run and atmosphere. We did a girls night out for happy hour and were seated in the enclosed patio area, which from photos is very lovely. It was overly loud in there from the volume of the music it was very hard to carry on a conversation and meet new people. Everything felt so rushed. From being asked to order within 5 minutes of sitting. The food came out super fast as well even after being asked no need to rush it out because we wanted to be there bit and had ordered what we wanted. Well everything came all at once this meaning the temperature of the rolls that were to be warm ended up being cold by the time we got to them. The quality and size of the rolls have gone down as well. Very disappointing. The prices for happy hour are good but all of the drinks are very mixer heavy. read more

I had such a great experience here, definitely one of my new favorite sushi spots. The food was delicious. The tuna tataki was super fresh and I also had miso soup which I loved. The ceviche was really tasty too. For sushi rolls, my favorites were the Cowgirl and the Lion King both were SO good, I would 100% order them again. The service was amazing. We were a group of 12 people and our waiter handled everything perfectly. Super attentive, friendly and made the whole experience even better. Also, the happy hour is definitely worth it. I tried the sangria and loved it. The ambiance is beautiful 10/10. Only thing to keep in mind is parking can be a bit tricky since it's in The Domain, but there are parking garages nearby. I loved it. Great food and great service. I'll definitely be back read more

I love that the daily happy hour is all the way up to 6:30 pm. We came for a early lunch and got some small plates and sushi. The Mango Crab Rangoons ($6.75), Roja Roll ($10.75), and Lion King Roll ($8.75) are all solid! Yellowtail Serrano Sashimi ($11.5) was also good but I'd say go for the sushi for the most bang for you buck. The sushi is not the highest quality but it's for sure delicious and fresh. read more

My kids took me here on a Sunday a couple of weeks ago for a belated Mother's Day celebration because they were both out of town the day of. Love that they have Happy Hour all day on Sunday's with many great options. It is a great deal! We had a fun time and they didn't have to break their small banks treating me. :-) Our server was really helpful and the food was great, as usual. We were seated in the patio area which I like because it's easier to hear each other talk and feels very open and light. I'm sure I will be back here many times again! read more

Went for my wife's birthday on a Sunday when it's all day happy hour. The selection of options is good and gives you a great impression of their menu at decent savings. The service was attentive and helpful and even offered a birthday ice cream treat but when my wife who prefers savory over sweet stressed that she isn't interested they simply removed one of the dishes from the ticket. A great customized offering that really improved our experience. The ambiance is fine, a lot of places today pack as many tables into a space so I'm not sure that's a focus anymore. It didn't take or add anything to an experience we'll do again. read more

Really impressed with this location from service to quality to atmosphere. Went in on a Friday night around 6:30 without a reservation and we were seated in under 15 minutes which blew my mind because they were very busy. I quickly experienced how they had us seated so quickly on a busy evening. Our servers were prompt and attentive the food was delivered accurately by various staff which is proof of excellent teamwork and leadership. Food was fresh and prepared quickly which again indicates excellent teamwork and leadership. Same story with drinks quick and accurate. Food was excellent! I will be back when in the area read more

Ambiance 5/5: pretty large restaurant with plenty of seating. Food: 5/5: Their roles are delicious. So many great options in their happy hour menu. Drinks: 4/5: we got the margaritas, which were good. Need to try their other drinks. Service: 5/5: Our waiter was nice and made great recommendations. One thing I liked about Blue was their happy hour. Not only are the prices great, but the happy hour extended hours make it way more accessible than other places. Cant wait to come back. read more

They've added quite a few new vegan rolls to the offering and yet everything seemed to have less flavor, less crunch, less satisfaction. I ordered my favorite green goddess. We also tried Eden - which was bland and not even crispy despite being a tempura filling. The VLT fell flat is terms of flavor or crunch. The veggie roll was a surprise winner. Service was excellent and ambiance is spacious, cool, and inviting. read more

Wow! Phenomenal sushi. I decided to be vegan for this lunch and I was quite impressed with the food. First of all they have a huge selection of vegetarian/vegan sushi to try from, so it was honestly hard to make a decision on what to try. I think thr rolls that I ordered were : Philadelphia Creamcheese salmon vegan roll Thai hippie Crunch cabbage And one other one I dont remember what it was called but it had little sesame chunks on the outside of it. All of them were a 10/10. Service was also great, our waiter was very nice. Definitely will be coming back! read more

So we came here for happy hour and a Sunday since they have it all day. They had a good selection for happy hour. The service there was very nice. Our waitress was very sweet and the hostess was quick to see us. The only reason I'm giving this place four stars is because it was mediocre to me. I've had better sushi, other places, and the only reason I say that is because these rolls were tasting very fishy to me and to me good fish does not taste fishy. The crab puffs were ordinary and nothing great. The cucumbers, pine mono I can't say I really did enjoy it since I love that stuff. It just needed a little bit of Ponzo in it. I will say the spicy tuna on top of the crispy. Rice was really yummy. I can't remember the names of the sushi rolls we got but I know two of them did not have fish it just had seafood in general and they still tasted fishy to me, which was odd. The place is big and it looks just like the original place that was there which is also sushi. Not sure I would come back, but it does offer a good happy hour. read more

Ordered a bunch of vegan sushi and loved most of them. Service was quick and attentive . Our server suggested some options and they were great ! Must say the menu had great options for everyone and a good variety selection for vegetarian and vegans as well .. The huge Godzilla mural on the wall is a highlight !

We stopped in for dinner and started with the calamari and the shishito pepper appetizers, and both were so good. For sushi, we ordered the Roja roll and the San Marcos roll. Both were really flavorful and good. Honestly wish we could've tried the nigiri too, but the apps were so big and delicious that we were completely full by the time we finished our rolls. Overall great meal and already planning to come back to try the nigiri next time! read more

Second time coming for the Tuesday night for 25% all vegan menu. Service was great, we were seated right away and the food came out pretty quickly as well. We preferred 6 different rolls and some appetizers for two people, and it was enough for us. Every time we come we try to get the same ones that we loved from last visit and add some new ones to try out different rolls! Everything was good, and we love coming back for the Tuesday vegan specials! read more

I've been to Blue Sushi Sake Grill more times than I can count. Bottom line up top: it's the most affordable way to eat quality, creative sushi with TONS of plant-based options. From the onset, I knew this one would be a compelling catch, boasting a lengthy menu of entirely vegan maki and nigiri that go well beyond the standard vegetable garden. We're talking about tomato ahi tuna, eggplant barbecued eel, seaweed caviar- And those are only mere components that make up the larger rolls. Don't skip over any of the clearly labeled plant-based appetizers, such as the Crispy Brussels Sprouts that could convert a hater. It's not hard to find incredible fried Brussels in this city, with immaculately crisp, almost translucent leaves and tender, buttery interiors, but these take it to the next level. Slathered in zesty, savory, and subtly sweet yuzu-miso sauce, that plate alone would score serious points for a first date. Recommending maki rolls from this fetching lineup is a daunting task, but the good news is that there are no losers here. The Cowgirl roll, which includes pickle tempura, sriracha-fried onion rings, BBQ-flavored soy paper instead of nori, vegan mayo, and tonkatsu sauce, is the overwhelming fan favorite. My personal favorite, however, was the Eden roll, comprised of grilled asparagus, sun-dried tomatoes, sweet potato tempura, and topped with creamy edamame hummus. It truly does taste like a little bite of heaven, swaddled in white sesame soy paper. Best of all, you can indulge on a budget during their daily happy hour which stretches from noon to 6pm, which naturally includes a wide selection of carefully crafted mixed drinks. There's always a good reason to stop in. read more

Went here with a couple friends during happy hour! The spot is cute, popular, and bustling with people. We tried a cocktail, which was really yummy, though you could barely taste the alcohol -- understandable for a $6.75 drink . The sashimi I ordered was delicious, and I'd definitely get it again. The ceviche was a bit dry, but the waitress brought a jalapeño ponzu sauce that was absolutely divine -- I could drink that stuff! I wasn't a huge fan of the sushi rolls, but overall it was a fun night out with the girls. read more

wish I could fully capture how great the experience was that my friend and I had here. From the moment you walk in, the decor sets the tone, upscale yet welcoming, and it really carries through to the food. We also lucked out by arriving during happy hour, and the deals were excellent. I highly recommend trying the Vegan Cowgirl, it was absolutely fantastic. Our waiter was also a great host and made the experience even better. I'm already looking forward to coming back!!! read more

Possible the best service I've had at any restaurant in Austin. It was a busy Friday night and our waitress was working tables throughout the large restaurant. She was always courteous and prompt. We were also waited on by at least 4 other staff as well as visited by the manager. They brought food quickly. Filled our water glasses. Took a minute to ask about our meal and chat. All very authentic and not just being nice to do their job. Really a wonderful dining experience. Oh, and the food was excellent, too. We started with the charred edamame. A really unusual and delicious take on the usual salty version. The topping of garlic, tamari & togarashi is spicy so you may want to get on the side, as we did. The edamame was delicious without it. We had a bunch of rolls. I don't recall all the names but they were all interesting and delicious. I wasn't thrilled with their unagi (eel) nigiri but that was the only minor food blemish. We sampled all six of the mochi flavors. All were lovely and different. The coconut was the star, such a nice, not-too-sweet treat and the coating was kind of doughy. I also really liked the ube. We spent about $200 with a big tip. Totally worth it for the service and food. We really liked Blue Sushi and will return many times. read more

Obsessed with this place. They have a full, intricate vegan sushi menu (in addition to a full selection of fish rolls), which I've now tried about 6 rolls from, and they are all amazing. It's so refreshing to find a sushi place that puts as much effort into their veg food as they do other food. The Prince Roll has eggplant tempura and avocado and is to die for. I usually avoid rolls without avocado, but Blue Sushi's Eden Roll has edamame hummus that makes up for the lack of avo. Reasonable prices, and they get more reasonable during happy hour (which is all day on Sundays, in addition to other times during the week). Happy hour includes lots of the sushi rolls and apps. read more

Had a great first visit to Blue Sushi. It was easy to get a spot just as happy hour was ending and sad I missed it! The staff were very friendly and explained the menu and how service worked. It was still busy enough that it wasn't quiet. We ordered several different items and they were brought out as completed. My favorite was the beef hot stone, because how cool is it to have the stone in front of you and still very tasty. I think this is a great place for friends or a date night. I can't wait to return. read more

Very nice atmosphere. We sat in the "outdoor" patio like setting but still indoors, loved it with large glass windows to view outdoor festivities or people watching. We started with a few cocktails, the samurai saketini, delicioso comments on the shareable plates are with the pics. Everything was a pleasant surprise. Not to mention our waitstaff, she was very helpful and attentive, I'm so sorry I could not remember her name and disposed of my receipt! read more

What a disappointment! I'll start out by saying that this has been my family's go-to sushi restaurant for the past 3-4 years but, after tonight's experience, we won't be back. The rolls were probably half the size as usual. We asked our server (he was the bartender as we sat at the bar) and he acted as if we were crazy but I've been here enough to know what the food should look and taste like. Add to that the fact that the rolls were off-temperature and took a LONG time to come out. It's always sad to see a top notch restaurant go backwards but this one definitely has. And the fact that the bartender didn't care that we were obviously disappointed was just another reason to take business elsewhere. Bummer, but for what we received tonight, the sushi was dramatically overpriced and under-delivered. read more

Blue Sushi Sake Grill is located within Austin's massive outdoor mall, The Domain, right across from Museum of Ice Cream. The restaurant is huge, and has really cool manga and modern, Japanese-inspired murals and decorations. It definitely seems hip and trendy. However, note their are some unique menu features: * It's really a sushi/sashimi/roll place, so there's no alternatives like ramen or Bento Boxes for adults. * They do have Bento Boxes, but only meant for kids. * They have a massive drink and cocktail menu * If you have folks who dislike raw fish, they do offer limited cooked appetizers and shareable, but don't expect big items like teriyaki, katsu, karaage, etc That being said, our 4yo son loved his salmon bento box and ate most of it. It was a great relief for us since he's such a picky eater, especially when traveling. The salmon was juicy and moist, and its pretty good sized too. As for the other entrees, the Itchy Seabass and Itchy Salmon are both good for cooked nigiri. The hot stone beef was okay, just not super juicy. I myself enjoy nigiri and you can't go wrong with their sushi menu. My wife isn't a huge fan of raw fish, so this restaurant is not ideal for her. Guess we should have ordered two Kid's Salmon Bento Boxes. read more

Always a great time. This is at the Domain. Happy hours here are worth it - good deals for sushi and drinks. Vegan and vegetarian options - plentiful, creative, fun and TASTY. Mix of high tops, booth seating and tables. Vibe - modern, upscale, upbeat music. Staff - almost always friendly, professional and attentive. We've been here dozens of times and 99% of the time we have excellent service. Recommendations (vegetarian ones) cowgirl sushi and Thai hippie. read more

Went late night on a Sunday. We sat at a high top near the bar and our waitress and the bartender who checked on us were incredibly nice. I had a super long day and was a bit tired and this dinner revived my stomach and spirit. Rolls were good and the sake toro sashimi was good. Be warned the spicy gringo roll is actually pretty spicy. I am not a gringa....am Indian-American...but it was def the spiciest maki roll I've ever had. Our water was refilled plenty of times and the high top seats were comfy enough. My expectations were exceeded for sure! read more

Chill place with great sushi. Got seated immediately upon arrival. Crowded but spacious with lots of tables indoors and outdoors. Food: amazing. Got plentiful of rolls. Spicy Gringo - def had some heat + great. Amazon roll - lovely. Green egg and hama - loved it. Eel roll - forgot name, I didn't like it but others did. Must get beef on hot rock, very different and SO tasty. Edamame, meh. Itchy salmon - fabulous. Ikura sushi - must get. Yellowtail serrano - decent but too much ponzu sauce with so little fish. Overall, the service was not good. It took a looooong time for them to get the food out. Though we did add on orders thruout dinner but the pause took way too long. Felt like a 45-60 mins break in between. We got pretty anxious and ended up cancelling some orders so we could leave. read more

Such a great fun first time visit to Blue Sushi. We were super lucky to arrive during happy hour. #score. Such great deals on appetizers and rolls. Savannah was so attentive and accommodating and she's the one that gave us heads up on happy hour with great recommendations too! We have calamari and multiple rolls along with delicious sangria. This will definitely be a frequent stop when we are back to the area. Even one of the managers, Kim came by to check on us and make sure everything was good. Nice touch! read more
