Blue Sky Japanese Bistro Review

Decided to try this place, somewhere close to the museums. It was dead in there when we got in. Then people started coming in to eat. Service was ok but the woman didn’t thank me when I paid.

We ordered the dynamite roll combo ($11ish) and the box A ($11ish, no menu online and forgot price).

The size looked ok for both. The dynamite roll said 20 pieces but there were 24 pieces. Boyfriend said it just depends on how many cuts they make, which is true. To me, their sushi were just soso, I’ve had better. If I had to pick the best, I would pick the spicy salmon because the spicy sauce gave it flavour. The yam and dynamite roll didn’t really have much taste to it. I’ve tried places where their yam and dynamite roll were very crispy from the tempura batter. This was not crispy at all. Their batter was very different, on the thicker side. Dynamite roll, they overcooked the shrimp or something. The texture was almost like chewing on meat. Normally the tempura shrimps have a crispy outer and a super soft texture inside.

Box A was alright. The teriyaki chicken was still tender and was good with the sauce. The cali roll was good. The tempura batter was the same as what I said above. Same with the shrimp texture.

Miso soup was like normal miso soup, not overly salty.

Overall, it was ok but I won’t come again. We choose this place because it was close to where we wanted to go, not because we thought it was good to try.
