Editorial Review for Blue Fish House – by Eric Gerber
The Scene
While "fish house" conjures up an old-school establishment ladling out bowls of chowder and platters of cod, this place is a different kettle of fish. Sushi and other Pan-Asian delicacies prevail at this humbly hip Japanese eatery. Younger scenesters and boomers both come for the serene setting (muted lighting and Zen-like decor), perky waitstaff and the clever, pun-laden menu.
The Food
Lurking behind jocular names like Dumb and Dumpling, Some Young Guy and Thai Me Up is some seriously appetizing food. Sushi and sashimi enthusiasts enjoy the reliable array of seafood treats, including such novelties as sushi pizza and crispy baby octopus. Blue House also shines with other options, like a wonderfully piquant chili-and-lime beef salad, a radioactively spicy shrimp soup, and for the vegetarian, a tofu steak slathered with a wasabi-mayo sauce. Finish off with a cooling dish of red-bean ice cream.

WOW is all I have to say. I hadn't been to Blue Fish in about 3 years. We just stopped going when they were doing the renovations and didn't even know it was open again. I went during lunch and they have the absolute best prices in town. Not only do they have the best prices but their sushi is so fresh. I am a huge sushi eater and have tried many different places. This is now my #1 sushi spot in Houston. The service was fine. Not exceptional, but what exactly is exceptional? They took our order, brought it to us on time and were attentive enough. I will def go back again.
Pros: Cheap lunch and regular sushi prices, fresh fresh sushi
Cons: parking is a little bumpy, but no big deal really

I never really ate sushi before but I met some friends at Blue Fish one night and tried a few pieces of their Philly roll. It was delicious and I've been eating sushi and going to Blue Fish ever since! My favorite is their Blue Fish eye roll and their Crispy roll. Both have tempura which I love. The Philly roll and Deep Fried Madness are great too. They also have good non-sushi dishes. The service is just kind of average but I've never had to wait too long for a table. They recently re-modeled the place and it's a much better use of space. Also, their edamame and tempura vegetables are great appetizers. I highly recommend Blue Fish especially to new sushi eaters!
Pros: Great sushi!
Cons: Parking is difficult
