    I don't know when they added alcohol to the menu, but Blowfish serves it now and there is nothing better than having Sake with my favorite Ramen!

    Wonderful food-service was a bit slow to come to table but kitchen turned everything around so quickly. The food is fantastic and it’s my favorite sushi/ramen place on the north side of Chicago. Will go back again and again!

    We had an amazing time as group for my friends birthday. The blowfish team went above to help us celebrate. At times it felt extra loud, a little cramped, and under staffed but these things would not stope me from coming like bi-weekly still.

    Service was slow to start. Sashimi was pretty good, though could have been fresher. Menu was very tight, well thought out, and most importantly: affordable. I'll definitely go back and bring my friends who may be newer to sushi and don't want to spend a million dollars.

    Overall a pretty good night. It was Valentines so we knew it would be a mess anywhere but found a place away from the path that took reservations. Really that’s the only spot I have to knock them: they have nothing to speak of for waiting space and had definitely overbooked. So about me and a dozen of my fellow diners that waited almost a half hour after our time slot to be seated, had to awkwardly stand over patrons who already had they food. A bit awkward. Once seated however it was a whole new experience. Fantastic food and drinks. Servers answered questions and were very prompt. We definitely want to come back when it’s less busy.
