I've been to Blowfish twice now. It's a nice space, the service is great, and the food is good. The problem is, neither the food, service, or space warrant the amount of money you need to drop for dinner. There are better places to get sushi or Japanese food in the city -- much better places. That said, Blowfish may be the only Japanese restaurant of its kind in the city -- a trendy lounge that happens to serve food. If that's what you're looking for, it's well worth checking out. The Saketini's are great. (I'm just not sure they are worth almost 20 dollars a pop.) I'm not adverse to spending a lot of money on dinner, but I like to feel like i'm getting my money's worth. With Blowfish I feel like you are paying to be seen there more than anything else. The place feels like a hang out for 30 year olds with too much money to spend. Blowfish is good. It's just not _that_ good.
