The Scene – With its dark industrial furnishings and dance-club decor, Blowfish attracts a young, affluent crowd who mingle well into the night at the sake bar. Those not into the singles scene pack the sushi bar, where skilled chefs put on a show of their own. – – The Food – The restaurant is well-known for its fusion rolls, combining ingredients that might shock old-school sushi chefs. But these innovative combinations can be an exciting hit. For a tropical treat, try the Godzilla roll, a sweet combination of fresh mango, lightly caramelized cashews and roasted…
Editor's Tips
- Parking:
- If you're out for dinner and a movie, park in the spacious Century Theatres lot across the street; finding a spot on the street can be a chore.
- Save Money:
- Looking for the experience without the expenditure? Try the $11.95 boxed lunch, which comes with a choice of two main dishes, steamed rice, miso soup, salad and vegetables.
WILL NOT RECOMMEND

This is the very first time in my life that I walked out at a restaurant. This just happened last Saturday night 4/2/11. My family came in the restaurant and we were seated at once. We looked at the menu, and we're given 4 glasses of water. Ten munutes has passed and no one has asked if we're ready to order. Gave them another 5 minutes, nothing. Then two people just came in and was seated next to us. And guess what, a waitress came and was taking their order. That's the time I told my family to stand up and we just walked out and no one even said anything to us. We ended up eating at SINO and we had a great time.
Fab Sushi

Blowfish has outstanding sushi that is consistently fresh, an innovative and creative menu, fab-u-lous cocktails and a cozy yet modern environment. The staff is chic yet helpful and will often give great advice on your next item based on what you have ordered and what you envision. The potstickers are the bomb if you don't like raw fish and their martinis are always delish!
- Pros: fresh sushi, great rolls, nice atmosphere
- Cons: parking/access

Love their bento for lunch
by cl37 at Citysearch
My favorite is the large serving size of excellent tempura. Then I have to decide -- tasty beef slices, sashimi, salmon teriyaki, ginger pork or the tonkatsu for my second choice. Whatever I select, I know I'll be very happy eating it. The salad is the best looking one I've seen in the Bay Area and both salad dressings are outstanding.The rice is always flawless and they serve two kinds of pickled veggies in the center. I love bringing friends here.
- Pros: Best looking bento In the South Bay
- Cons: Two choices; no option for three choices
A bit expensive but good selection

Interesting sushi choices and the decor is pretty cool, but the prices are on the high side for what they offer.
