Unique Atmosphere

by omother at Citysearch

My sister and I enjoy trying new restaurants and I brought my sister here for her birthday a few months ago. I've been meaning to write a review, that's how much the spot stuck out in my mind! It's a nice excluded spot, so next time I'll be there on a date.

• Pros: Great sushi and service
• Cons: parking

Great Food, Great Sushi, Great Drinks, Great Atmosphere!

by RockTBP at Citysearch

Need I say more? I love going to a place that's consistent and I have been consistently satisfied with Bluefin. My first sushi experience was awful....everything tasted like the Atlantic Ocean or some canal running through the dingiest neighborhood in America. I can say that Bluefin severly changed my outlook on sushi. Now I have a hard time trying it any other place because I know that I can always have a good experience here. I've eaten their entrees too. AMAZING. Had a 'Bob Marley' once. Great. The atmosphere is always calm and very comfortable. Would definitely recommend it to anyone trying sushi for the first time because there are some selections that don't overwhelm you and make you think of seaweed and coral reefs!

• Pros: Plenty to chose from even if you don't eat sushi.
• Cons: Parking but I'd prefer $3 to $10+ or none at all!

Great, Fresh and Fun

by WhitLB at Citysearch

This place has quickly become my boyfriend and Is favorite sushi in Atlanta. I have never tried anything except for the sushi simply because it's so good. the wasabi and seafood is all very fresh. The atmosphere is very swanky. The parking is a little irritating, but if you're feeling cheap you can drive on past the $3 parking lot and park a little farther down on the street. All in all this is my favorite sushi place in town and I love sushi.

• Pros: Fresh sushi, modern chique atmosphere, good service
• Cons: Small lounge area, $3 parking, tables can be small if not seated at booth

Amazing Sea Bass!!!!! Great Ambience*

by Naya177 at Citysearch

I would totally recommend this place for girlfriends to catch up, fun dates and dinner parties. Their sake martini's are very good.

I'm a total foodie and this place is amazing. My husband just about licked his plate clean! I had the Sea Bass which was soo fresh and the presentation was beautiful. Great sushi too! This place is so beautiful and the design is immaculate. I would highly recommend this place!

• Pros: Ambience, Service, Sake Martinis, Sea Bass
• Cons: Parking- you pay 3, but get 3 back later

Great Sushi...Cool Space

by atlantaest at Citysearch

My partner and I visited Bluefin recently because we enjoy sushi and pictures on the restaurant's website indicated that this was a trendy choice with a large menu. We were not disappointed. The sushi was fresh and restaurant decor was cool and modern We started our meal with Honey and Chili Shrimp. Although I am not a big fan of spicy food, I found this dish to be well balanced. We were impressed with the food and service and would recommend this restaurant. Since the menu contained a selection of other choices in addition to a comprehensive sushi list, we can bring our friends (that don't have a taste for sushi) to join us for a good meal. Try the Manhattan Roll. OH, the drinks were fabulous!!!!!

• Pros: Decor...Fresh Food...Good Drinks
• Cons: None

This place just has "it"

by DaveRoble at Citysearch

and by "it", I mean "everything".......a great atmosphere, reasonable prices, amazing service, and oh yeah, did I mention the best sushi in Atlanta. My girlfriend and I came in the other night because we had a bad experience at our usual sushi restaurant, Taka(I won't get into it, but we won't be going back). We were instantly impressed with the atmosphere; low lighting, lounge music, comfortable seating, it all came together very nicely. We ordered a nice bottle of wine which our server recommended to us. We then proceeded to order some sashimi(chef's selection), and a couple of BF premium rolls(Bluefins twist on some traditional rolls). Everything was fantastic. By far some of the freshest fish I have ever tasted! All in all the experience was GREAT, and best of all, now we have a new sushi spot to call our own.

• Pros: Food, service, atmosphere

As Close to Tokyo as Atlanta Can Get

by tokyobigjer at Citysearch

I was visiting Atlanta for business from Tokyo and after a couple of weeks I began to miss the sushi...I tried Bluefin and loved the service and the freshness of the sushi.

Best sushi in ATL, incredible decor, very hot

by juliebabe at Citysearch

I dined at Bluefin last Saturday evening for my birthday with some of my girlfriends and had the best time. The server, Christina, was incredibly warm and attentive. The entire staff came by the table it seemed to wish me a happy birthday as did the owner who is very sweet! This was my second time in and the restaurant almost felt reinvented, from the staff to the food. The new manager from Hawaii, Stephen was very accommodating and was constantly checking on our party. He is pretty hot too ladies! I will definitely be going back to Bluefin !

Monday Nights @ Blue Fin = FUN!

by Smammasita1 at Citysearch

Some friends and I fell into Blue Fin one Monday night and have been going ever since. The atmosphere is awsome, the staff is great and food is superb!Blue Fin is a place that you can go to after work and unwind or posh enough to take a date and have a great meal. The specials on sushi, wine and cocktails on Monday nights, my opinion is the best in Buckhead. I have never attended any other night but I know that Monday nights ROCK! I will be back....

• Pros: Staff, Atmosphere, and food....yummo
• Cons: price and can get a little warm

Fantastic, unqiue food and presentation

by katlanta1 at Citysearch

My boyfriend and I went to Bluefin for his birthday. The decor was fun, and the hostess was friendly. We ordered drinks and a fantastic tuna appetizer. For dinner, I had the scallops, and he had the bluefin steak. Both were incredible. The quality of each dish was exceptional. The dishes were served on amazing platters, and even the sides were perfectly executed. Our server was helpful the entire time. The only negative is that it was more expensive than I was expecting, after reading other reviews. My martini was $13, and each beer was $6.50. So with drinks, one appetizer, and two entrees, our total bill, before tip, was $95. It was definitely worth it, and we plan on going back, but just expect to pay that much before you go.

• Pros: friendly service, great presentation, all dishes were cooked perfectly
• Cons: parking is not free, and no valet is offered, more pricey than expected.
