  • Going by the good ****1/2 star reviews, I was looking forward to having fine sushi at Blu Sushi in Scottsdale. I was happy to know that they had outside seating so I can also bring along my Micky (who is a two-year old Bishon Frisse-Chihuahua mix. I digress). The only good thing that came out of this experience was that I got a free bowl of edadame upon checking in through this app. The rest was an epic fail. For starters, it was hard to find. The wait was at least 1 1-2 hours. Granted we came on a Friday evening, but the place was not at all packed. Then the food came. Ordered a bowl of ramen noodle soup (for my son, who said that it was just "alright, not great". Not anywhere as good as the ones at Santoku inside the Mitsuwa Marketplace in Torrance, CA). Also ordered three sushi rolls. They looked pretty small to me--at least by a third. For the $15-16 price per roll, I was disappointed and really mad at how exorbitant these prices were for the smaller size of each roll. Never mind the flavor nor the presentation--no star for either one. I took a picture of my sashimi platter, which came with a price tag of $40.00, for twenty measly and boring slices of the usual suspects--five each of salmon, tuna, red snapper (? Not sure), and yellowtail. The platter itself was adorned only with the shredded radish, on a plain white plate. There was no other embellishment, not even a twist of lemon nor a fake leaf. I doubt they were trying to go for the minimalist look. My point is, I expected a sashimi platter that has been elevated to a culinary feast for the eyes, just like most Japanese foods tend to be. Service as a whole was bad. Didn't get any offers of refills for our water, not until towards the end of our dinner. I wanted to cancel my sashimi order but the lady said--"he (the sushi chef) is already cutting (the fish)". So, our 2 1/2 hour dinner came out to roughly $116.00, for sushi that, at best, was mediocre. Left me wondering, wth made people give this place a 4+ star rating?? Needless to say, not gonna go back there. Harumi Sushi on Adams St, in Phoenix, remains THE sushi place to be.
