Blue C Sushi

Recently moved to Seattle and was looking for some sushi close to home. I wasn’t very impressed. The spicy seared tuna was under whelming. I also ordered salmon nigiri that my waiter forgot to put in as an order. I ended up waiting over 25 mins for it. Additionally, I ran out of water and also had to wait for my bill. Some of the food was ok and I was there for happy hour, so the bill was quite inexpensive. I’d rather pay more and have a more memorable experience. Prob good for people looking to get in and out quickly and aren’t super sushi nuts. The best food I had was the katsu.

If i could give this place a 0 star i would with that being said; The service here was HORRIBLE, they took 20 minutes to take our order and it was almost impossible to get someone to get a refill on our drinks and 30 minutes to get us our check, we had to push out our chairs just to stop them from walking by and it still took them 4 or 5 times to then even stop so we can leave. We considered walking out about 3x because it seems they didn’t want our money, to them pretending we didn’t exist was a better idea.

This place deserves a better review. It’s solid converyor belt sushi. Does it stack up against the $ 100 a dinner sit down places? No, but it isn’t supposed to. It’s easy, fast and cheap and it tastes pretty good!

One of the worst conveyor out there in my opinion. I had my michelin star friend who is a chef in tokyo. We were both shocked by the quality and the price of the food. Perhaps head chef is off on sunday lunch time. tuna was discolored tremendously and it looked too unappetizing. Atlantic Salmon was labeled as Scottish and wad sold at unprecedented price for conveyor belt. Nothing really stood out. no nikiri nor good neta. Shari was actually only thing bearable…

So the sushi may have been made 2 minutes ago — or 2 hours ago — or two. My edamame were definitely made more than an hour ago. The food tastes good, which is why it got 2 stars. But for me, the whole point of a sushi restaurant — the reason why you’re paying $ 30 — is to get great tasting, freshly prepared sushi. There are no lunch specials. Purple plates are $ 5.50 and you need like 3 or 4 of them to fill you up. And really I would rather go to a «real» sushi place and pay that much for 2 nice pieces of nigiri instead of a stale wanna be sushi roll. Not my thing. But hey, if you’re not into sushi, it may be a nice place for people to start. I really have no idea who this atmosphere would work for. Drunk people? People why have never been to a real Japanese restaurant? People who live in the building next door? Yeah — go somewhere else. Conveyor Belt sushi — not good.

I have been to this location in the and wasn’t exactly satisfied with the selection that was available on the conveyor belt at the time.
however walking by I saw their advertisement for their new happy hour.
from 3 – 6 all plates are $ 3, which is an awesome deal if you’re on a budget like me.
both the waiters and the chefs were more than helpful and accommodating to my dietary restrictions.
I will definitely be back again soon!

Pretty bad nowadays. We have been going to this place about once a year when people are in town and Fremont is on the route doing touristy things around town. Everyone usually wants some sushi, so we end up here. The first couple of times (years ago) the Sushi was good and the prices were decent. Not sure what happened in the past 2 years? The quality and taste went downhill, but the prices of the plates went up. We paid almost $ 15 a person for a light lunch with only 3 – 4 plates each. We didn’t order any of the fancy big ones, since we were all so turned off by the fact that almost all items came on expensive $ 4 or $ 4.50 plates. If you want to pretend to be a fancy Sushi restaurant, then I expect the service, fresh fish and generous portions. 4 tiny pieces on a $ 4.50 plate just won’t cut it.
We decided that this was the last time going there with any of our friends coming into town, there is much better value to be found elsewhere.

The food is edible, but not good value. My husband and I spent $ 50, just on some ordinary dishes, the first five colors, not the most expensive ones. Taste is ok, but for this price, I’ve experienced much better. The service can be improved surely. No chopsticks or napkin for me at all. I didn’t see any passion or genuine warmth in any of the staff there. Will definitely not go there again.

This is the worst location of all of this chain. Not only is parking a problem but the place is small and so is the selection. Service, even when empty, is absent frequently. Clearly, when in Fremont a chain is not where one should eat.

I know the sushi here isn’t top notch. I do know that. But I enjoy the spicy california rolls and sesame green beans. My kids LOVE the place and it is one of two restaurants in Seattle in which I can relax and let my kids eat with all their food issues/​allergies. The wait staff is pretty educated and very friendly. It’s just a cheerful atmosphere and great for families.

The service at Blue C Sushi was really pretty bad. I never expect much in terms of service from these conveyer belt places, honestly, but sometimes the sushi can be decent for the price.
My girlfriend and I arrived on a Wednesday night. We saw a few open spots at the bar but still waited in the queue for about 10 minutes. They appeared to only have 3 people other than the chefs running the whole place. Once we were seated, it took about 10 minutes just to ask for drinks and another 5 to receive them, and they weren’t even correct. I wanted water, and my girlfriend wanted iced green tea, to which they responded that they only had iced tea with mint, and she ended up receiving hot green tea.
All of the food looked incredibly appetizing. It was presented very well as it passed by. I wish I could say the same for its taste. The sushi was very disappointing, and the gyoza was nothing to write home about. I’ve been to conveyer belt sushi restaurants, and I’ve fallen in love with a few of them, so I took a lot of the reviews with skepticism, but this was the worst I’ve been to.
Still, it was relatively cheap sushi, and I wouldn’t say it was bad by any means.

This was my second time here over a span on 5 years. I like coming here for the fun atmosphere and unique roll options. The prices are a bit steep compared to similar sushi conveyor belt options in Seattle. I tried the alcoholic lemonade and requested vodka in place of gin, no problem and the drink was great!

Out of all the Kaiten-​zushi (conveyor belt sushi) there are, this and sushi land have got to be the worst. Their overpriced food, and low quality is not worth your time. Ignore the photos you see that just try to hype up Blue C Sushi. You can find better quality sushi for a much lower price.
However, the staff is nice, as well as the cooks. Its a real shame that they have to be in this business. The service is quite good and the staff ensures you have a pleasant time. If you enjoy quality sushi, and not some half assed sushi, do not come here. BUT, if you dont really care and just like any old sushi this place will satisfy that craving.

I just moved to Seattle and have been prowling around for a good sushi place that won’t bankrupt me. I think I have found that place!
I generally go for the more traditional sushi places. You know those places: staff who are hard to understand due to thick accents, sushi without the cream cheese, outdated Oriental décor from the 70s. They more often than not have the best sushi!
However, I have developed quite a soft spot for Blue C Sushi. Even though it is NOT the traditional sushi place that I just described above, it is still a good place to get sushi at a reasonable price. I’ve not sat at the conveyor belt (something about that weirds me out), so I can’t really speak about that. But I have dined at the upstairs bar area for Happy Hour twice at this location and have always gotten wonderful service (and food).
The last time I was there, my server/​bartender was very friendly and helpful. He (Frank?) recommended some good sushi rolls and the Shiso Mojito, which was a bargain at $ 5.
All in all, not a place that I would imagine liking… but in the end, I really DO like it.
So if you’re sort of a sushi snob like me, skewing toward the more traditional style sushi restaurants, give this place a shot. You will be pleasantly surprised.

Went to lunch with my husband today, a special treat in itself, and ended up going to Blue C. How did we never go there before!!! I can hardly wait to go back. The food was fabulous, the selection wonderful, the staff very friendly even though you could see they were working hard. And the prices seemed most reasonable for what we got. I loved the idea of having the plates of food pass by you. It also helped me to keep from eating so fast so that I could relax and enjoy a leisurely lunch. Couldn’t have asked for more. Just loved it!

Loved this place. The color-​coded dishes make it easy to understand how to pick and pay for varying sushi dishes. All the dishes that I had were fantastic — fresh ingredients all around. The salmon and eel sushi rolls were excellent. Prices were good, not too high at all for the great quality of the food. Would definitely recommend this place if you want a quick sushi fix.

After walking around fremont area, it was getting dark, so we decided to pick up something light for dinner. We walked in C sushi and texture place looked quaint and clean, but a little on the high side:
teriyaki salmon bowl — 4 stars — for $ 6.50 the bowl was a little small, but the salmon was very fresh and tasty. coming from Hawaii, the salmon was much fresher than any sushi restaurant we’ve had back home.
Chicken teriyaki bowl — 3.5 stars — for $ 4, my son said it was ok but not anything different than what he has eaten before.
ceviche bowl — 3 stars — for $ 5.50, I wasn’t too impressed. the fish was a little pasty, and there wasn’t much flavor to it, plus they didn’t provide any shoyu to dip it in.
Service was ok, but we had to ask, then grab our own utensils for take out.

I love the staff here. They’re great and don’t judge me when I eat second dessert =p. Remember you can always just order a roll if you’re tired of waiting for one to rotate to you. They also have some tasty items on the menu that are definitely worth a try. I especially like the mochi ice cream.
For those saying this place is overpriced, I was finally able to catch happy hour here today and was very pleased with the selection and pricing. For those unsure of when their happy hour is I think its:
Mon-​Thurs 4−7pm
Sun 4-​close
Also if you’re a Microsoft employee, don’t forget to use your Prime card for an additional 20% discount!

I don’t know about y’all but I thought this place was fun, and yes, you do pay for the convenience of having the food literally zipping by you on a conveyer belt. We stopped in for a quick snack and simply because it looked too goddamn cool to pass up.
Personally, I didn’t feel like $ 4 for a small plate of sushi wasn’t too crazy expensive, but I’m a light eater and one roll and a nibble off my husband’s roll and my friend’s edamame was all I needed.
Would I come back for a snacky snack? Definitely. Would I come back for a full blown meal? Probably not, but either way it was entertaining.
Ok, maybe I was just distracted with all the colors and mechanics.

When this place first opened (more than a decade ago) it was quite a unique place to visit. Sushi on a conveyer belt back then was an innovative concept. The colored plate pricing was convenient. The large video screen with movies of Tokyo city was a nice touch. Unfortunately, time has not been kind to this venue… they’ve lost their magic touch. The sushi here has become bland and unexciting to me.
Today when we passed by we saw a sign saying the store was closed for remodeling. Good! I’m looking forward to visiting again once the restaurant gets it’s facelift. I hope they hire some authentic Japanese chefs to make the sushi too. Not just anyone can make sushi right… you’ve got to have skills.
