    We went there pre theatre. The food was quite good. The service was amazing. Our waitperson, Krystal, was super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the menu and the food preparations. Although we were not in a time crunch, Krystal was aware of our theater plans and served us as promptly as the kitchen prepared it. I only wish the show we saw measured up to our dinner!

    The atmosphere, food and service were excellent! From the moment we entered and taken to our table by Jeri we knew we had made the right choice for dinner. Our server, Krystal, was fantastic and gave wonderful recommendations. The crab and lobster rolls were delicious as was our salad. The sushi was amazing!

    A wonderful experience! Our waiter, Wilson, was on top of his game: attentive, but not intrusive; made recommendations and clarified menu specifics. It was a 60th wedding anniversary celebration for us, and he treated us to a dessert! Very special! Highly recommend this restaurant!

    This is not the pre-pandemic Blue Fin. The menu has changed completely, and there are not many Japanese food items. They do not have the wonderful miso soup anymore and not much sushi. Many of the items were very pricey. Great service and decor!

    I dined at Blue Fin on March 16, 2020 - the night before the pandemic shut down all restaurants. This was my first time back - and it was so worth the wait. The manager Laura was so welcoming when I arrived, and allowed me to pick the table of my choice. The lobster bisque, branzino, potato puree and butterscotch bread pudding were all incredibly delicious. My server Alexys was simply phenomenal, and made certain that my dining experience was perfect. I'm so glad that Blue Fin is back - and l Iook forward to many wonderful meals there in the future.

    We went for a pre-show dinner last night. All of us were up with stomach aches and kids had to miss school the next day. I was worried based on the state of the bathroom before we sat down to eat - should have followed my instincts. Paid a hefty sum for the 'privilege' to boot. No longer a choice for pre-theatre for us.

    Blue Fin's food is always delicious and they have a very nice selection of choices. The service is overall very good, except last night was the second time our entrees were brought to the table while we were still eating our apps. The first time, we just accepted them. Last night we did send back as we needed another 10-15 mins and was told that they would be re-fired and the server was very apologetic but... Not sure if that is what happened as the entrees were not hot and may have sat under the heat lamp for those 15 mins. If this happens again we may have to rethink visiting Blue Fin, which would be a shame.

    The restaurant is very convenient to theaters and on the ground level of the W Hotel which has a nice bar/lounge to hang out. The service was excellent. Our server was very attentive and the dishes arrived quickly. Caterpillar roll, seared scallops and Shanghai tuna were all delicious.

    I was surprised that what was once a bustling brunch spot was virtually empty, didn’t have a brunch menu, any alternative milk for the coffee or any decaf coffee, nor experienced waiters. With that, the food was very good and timely. We celebrated a pleasant birthday there, I just wish they took it up a notch.

    Three of us recently dined at Blue Fin, pre-theater. Service was extremely cordial, very prompt (without rushing) and had no problem with us sharing appetizers or desserts. We shared the Roquefort Wedge, just so we could all get a taste of this absolutely delicious and decadent salad! Each of our fish dishes was exquisitely prepared. Service was so prompt that we had time for dessert. The Bourbon Bread Pudding is delectable, and also big enough to share with at least 2 or even 3 people. The restaurant is very pretty, and the seating is roomy and quiet enough for conversation - such a surprising contrast to the hustle and bustle of Times Square just outside their entrance! We'll be back!

    The food was very good, but the service was uneven. The butterscotch bread pudding was great, definitely large enough for two. I don't know whether it was the way the server put my order in or whether the kitchen made the error, but my starter (tiger prawn (dumplings) and entre (scallops) were delivered at the same time. The 4 dumplings were tasty but beware the chili oil is a little spicy. The scallops were good but were only barely warm. Perhaps because they came out of the kitchen too soon? Based on observing the server, she seemed to be struggling with a number of things, perhaps she was new and needed more training.

    My husband and I were very surprised with the poor service we received. We are repeat customers and usually receive great food and service! Yesterday's service was not meeting the usually standards of this restaurant. To start, we never received bread and at one point the server says, "I can get you some bread to hold you over", which never arrived. I had to ask then wait for soy sauce. When I placed my order I asked for Sriracha mayo on the side but received only the Sriracha. I asked about about the mayo part and was told, it's only downstairs"
