    We were excited to try BluFish as it was highly rated. Initially after ordering, the server forgot to put our order in so we waited about 25 minutes until she came over and realized we ordered already and ran back to the kitchen. We got our first dish about 30 minutes from ordering on a pretty empty night. When the sushi items came out, they were very underwhelming. The Cajun in the seared sashimi took away from the sashimi which would've tasted good on its own. All the specialty rolls also tasted the same and very mediocre. Maybe we're spoiled by the Toronto food scene but it definitely wasn't a good experience. We tried the "Ben", "Somoku", "Spicy Dynamite" and "Lobster Roll". We wouldn't come back but again, maybe we're just spoiled by good sushi spots in Toronto.
