I ordered online to get delivered. And I was so excited to see that they have really good options for Gluten Free. I had Shrimp Tempura and Dynamite Roll. It was amazing! Even their Tempura Sauce and Soy Sauce are Gluten Free. Will definitely find time to visit and eat the restaurant in person next time!!
Table was too small and the chairs felt cramped. The sushi was ok but not worth the price that they ask for. The lighting and the decor made the dining experience not very nice. Also, the sashimi didn't taste particularly fresh. The green onion in the negi toro tasted a little bit off, like the slime that forms when it sits for a while. The dragon roll tasted pretty good. My impression is that this is a place where you order rolls, and not where you want to get nigiri, sashimi, or maki. I thought it might be based off the reviews and menu, but it ended up being an expensive let down. I have nothing particularly bad to say about the service, other than I wish that we were offered a larger table because it felt very cramped.
I visited Blufish yesterday evening with my boyfriend and my mom (we were all craving sushi), and we heard lots of great reviews and word that Blufish was one of the top places in Winnipeg to go for good sushi (alongside Yujiro on Grant). We reserved a table earlier in the day online - this was a super easy and convenient option! We ended up arriving 15 minutes early and they were able to accommodate (I was 100% okay with waiting if needed, but it was great to see how accommodating and welcoming the crew at Blufish was). ☺️ First off - the cocktails. 😍 I tried both their Plumtini and Lychee-tini, and I honestly could have sipped on those all night long. Our server was really great with recommending cocktails to try as well! Between the three of us, we ordered a variety of items - from edamame beans, to sashimi and nigiri sushi, and a few different rolls. I myself have a shellfish allergy (a sin for a person who loves sushi), and the staff were very accommodating with making sure that the items that were unsafe for me were on separate plates, and they acknowledged when those specific rolls were on the table as well. Kudos to the staff - this effort meant so much to me! 🙌🏼 The sashimi and nigiri was amazing, their wasabi was great - the only items I found I could have passed on were their salmon bakudan roll, the seaweed wrap was quite chewy and not my favourite, and their philadelphia roll (again, just a tad bit chewier than I’m used to - although I will say that I really appreciated that they were open to switching out the smoked salmon for raw salmon with this roll). These are not reasons that will deter me from returning though - I will definitely come back again! I can definitely vouch after this visit that Blufish is indeed one of the top places in Winnipeg for sushi - I will agree with that one!
We ate supper here on a Saturday evening, it wasn't too busy and we were seated right away. Almost the entire menu can be made gluten free (except gyoza and BBQ eel). Make sure to ask for gluten free soy sauce too. We had the agedashi tofu to start. Very delicious and crispy gluten free tempura batter. Then we shared the Lobster roll, Ben roll, and the super dynamite roll. They were all so good. I couldn't recommend this place any more than just saying you must come if you have a gluten free or Celiac diet. I'm so glad this was recommended on Facebook and Find me Gluten Free.
We had a fantastic dinner at Bluefish! The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The lychee cocktail was also a highlight — sweet, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. The absolute star of the night was our waitress Tanya — she was warm, attentive, stunning, and full of good energy. Her service truly elevated the entire experience. If we had one small suggestion, it would be to improve the ambiance a little — the interior feels a bit plain and cafeteria-like. With just a few touches, it could match the level of the food and service. Still, overall it was a wonderful evening. Great food, great drinks, and amazing staff. We’ll definitely be coming back! 🍣🍸
