I was here for a friend’s birthday - we wondered where to go and this place was decided. I’ve had a lot of memory here… former significant others, my friend’s brother was the sushi was the sushi chef here for some time.
Anyways, we did an omakase amid other dishes and they were overall all solid. The omakase exceed both our expectation as the cuts for sashimi was great quality. The steak tatake was decent, not exceptional. The udon was solid as was the fried rice. We felt full leaving and exceeded our expectations for the day.
I was excited to try some different veggie sushi rolls and was not disappointed! I got 3 that I've not seen at other places. I'll definitely come back! One of my kids liked the LA roll, minus the sauces. It's a fried California roll!
Other kid got the Yaki Soba, which would easily feed 3 people! The miso soup and veggie miso were also great!
We had great service as well.
As far as I am concerned, Sake Blue is the finest Japanese restaurant in Louisville. The menu creations boggle the mind and the food goes far beyond excellent! The calamari was to die for, and our waitress suggested a roll the lakes of which I have not seen or tasted anything as rich and flavorful as that roll. Wish I could remember its name. The main dish was something like Sake Blue plate. I wish I had taken pictures! For dessert we had a deep fried cheese cake with homemade whip cream and chocolate drizzle.
Our waitress was absolutely amazing. She constantly tended to our drinks, and continually made sure that everything was perfect. She was very friendly, professional, with a nice touch of bowing when complemented and when the meal was complete and we were leaving the restaurant.
This is probably the finest restaurant meal I have had in years. This review may sound a little over the top, but you will get it if you take the time to try. It is a bit pricey, but worth every penny.
I've been coming here for about 10+ years now, and today I had the BEST sushi roll I have ever had in my life. Red Phoenix Roll is what I always get, and its never bad, but today it's like the hand of God made this roll. The fried asparagus was still hot and crispy, the ratio of hot sauce to spicy crab, to cucumber, jalapeño and avocado was nothing less than perfection. Each bite was like biting into my taste buds wildest dream. I'll forever be chasing the deliciousness that was my lunch today. Thank you, and please, keep up the great work. 👍🏻
FROM THE MOMENT WE ARRIVED, THE SMILE AND ATTENTION OF THE HOST/ SERVER WAS AMAZING. LUCIA WAS ATTENTIVE AND MADE SURE WE WERE SITTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. CONSIDERING WE ARRIVED AFTER GRADUATION SO THIS PLACE WAS PACKED. WHILE WAITING SHE MADE SURE WE FELT WELCOMED AND COMFORTABLE AND OFFER WATER WHILE WE WAITTED, SEE THIS IS WHAT I EXPECT WHEN I VISIT A RESTAURANT ( GREAT SERVICE) AND AT SAKE BLUE WE SURELY RECEIVE IT!! THANK YOU, LUCIA!!! HIBACHI WAS PACKED CONSIDERING IT WAS GRADUATION DAY. FOOD WAS AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS, YUMMY, FRESH, AND HOT AS I LOVE IT!! AM NOT A FAN OF SUSHI BUT I TRY A FEW AND LET ME TELL YOU. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!I TOTALLY RECOMMEND THE BIG MOUTH, IT'S VERY FLAVORABLE !! I CAN'T WRITE A REVIEW WITHOUT RATING THE RESTROOMS. BECAUSE AS I SAY "IF A RESTAURANT WORRIES ABOUT THE RESTROOMS BEING CLEAN, THEN THE KITCHEN IS CLEAN" AND TO MY SURPRISE THE RESTROOMS AT SAKE BLUE WERE SPOTLESS CLEAN, WITH A MODERN TOUCH OF DESIGN. THAT MADE ME VERY COMFORTABLE. I KNOW FOR A FACT WE WILL BE BACK. !! FOR BEING MY FIST TIME HERE, AND HAVING SUCH A GOOD IMPRESSION I'LL GIVE SAKE BLUE A 5 STAR THE CHEF WAS GREAT, HE MADE SURE WE WERE ALL SERVE IN A TIMELY MANNER. HE HAD SMILE AT ALL TIMES AND SEEM TO LOVE HIS JOB. THE FLAVOR WAS EXTRAORDINARY. HE WAS VERY FUNNY AND MADE MY KIDS LAUGH WITH EVERYTHING HE DID WHILE COOKING. WE LOVED THIS EXPERIENCE. TOTALLY RECOMMEND. YOU PAY FOR QUALITY FOOD HERE!!
Sake Blue is a very good place to eat, but be ready to spend some money. I am sure it is close to market value, I am just not used to spending $30+ on a meal. Yes, I do realize that everything including fast food has gone up a lot in the last few years, so I am not going to hit them to hard for this, just a mention.
The sushi and hibachi are both very good and generous portions. We did not sit at a hibachi grill because they were very busy, but the experience was still very good!
No complaints on cleanliness or service as dining area was very clean and wait staff were on top of things.
Food is great and cooked perfectly, I got steak medium rare. Atmosphere is a little on upscale side and I think you kind of pay for that. A little expensive. Service people were great but wait time was kind of crazy. Wasn't that busy when we arrived and still waited 40 minutes for our food. By the time it came we had to get boxes and leave.
This place is one of the best places to get sushi or hibachi.. it's out of the way but worth it.
Sake Blue is one of the best sushi places in Louisville. Great tasting food and great ambiance. Expanded bar area is a plus given there is usually a wait for this popular restaurant.
What a great restaurant in Fern Creek! The atmosphere is very modern and comfortable! We enjoyed a hibachi meal and the preparation and food quality was outstanding. I highly recommend this place, but be sure to get a reservation!
