    The sushi rice was a bit undercooked so it was hard and the rolls didn’t have much flavour. I’ve been here a few times before and it was better so maybe just a one off. Slightly pricier than other sushi places, likely due to location being in the exchange district. Service was good and nice ambiance.

    The service was prompt and friendly and the sushi rolls were excellent. Unfortunately the vegetable tempura was very disappointing. It may have been a one off situation but was an unfortunate way to start our meal. It may have been one of the worse tempura’s I have ever had. To be fair, We did not complain at the time so am unsure how the restaurant would have resolved it. I will return as my guess is that the tempura was an aberration.

    This restaurant consistently has great food, service, and overall quality & value. We have and will always be back! You must order the flaming scallop appetizer it is a standout signature dish.

    Blufish is consistently top quality. It's been my favourite sushi restaurant in Winnipeg for years.

    Can you imagine going to a Sushi restaurant with allergies to shrimp, scallops and gluten? The staff is amazing. They know exactly what we can have from their menu. Thank you so much to our server who has gotten to know us and ensures that we will not have a reaction to the food. We will be back because the food is wonderful and the staff are excellent.

    Hands down would go again, great service great food great pricing. Try the sashimi plate of tuna & Salmon. Was excellent! The deep fried scallops were incredible. Next time we are in Winnipeg we will be back! Shout out to the staff at the Alt Hotel for recommending Bluefish!

    Arrived 10 minutes early before scheduled time 5:15 pm., Restaurant was near empty and only one server observed. Ordered food and drinks by 5:30 pm. First course came 15 minutes later, second course came by. 6:00 pm, still no drinks or tea. Restaurant started to fill as it was a Friday night MTC crowd. Observed 3 servers for full restaurant. Third sushi course did not arrive by 6:45 pm despite three requests to remind server. 6:55 pm asked for bill, non-delivered sushi plate was on bill, despite not receiving it. Asked for another bill. Above average Japanese food, but extremely poor and inattentive service.

    Enjoyed our time at BluFish. The food was delicious. It's a small space, so was pretty noisy with other patrons chatter.
