Visited from out of town- the multi-course lunch special was remarkable. Newport Coast is certainly on another level, and so was Bluefin. Very reasonably priced at lunch. Friendly service and highly recommended.

Bluefin is a restaurant known for its outstanding food, especially for its fresh sushi and well-prepared dishes. Highlighted offerings include lobster tobanyaki, Kizami wasabi, mixed tempura, scallop crudo, albacore tataki, and wagyu. The sashimi is noted to be as good as it gets, making it a favorite sushi spot. The menu is great, featuring fresh and delicious fish. Favorites include tempura crab claws, toro nigiri, and handrolls. Eating at the sushi bar provides a fun experience, allowing guests to see the professionalism and expertise of the chefs up close. The Omikase lunch is fantastic, featuring many courses, and the Bluefin carpaccio and crispy rice are particularly praised. Although prices can be on the higher side, the quality of the food justifies it. The service is described as great and attentive, with the waitstaff being friendly. The restaurant has a lovely patio, especially enjoyable on sunny evenings, and offers a beautiful sunset view, enhancing the dining experience. Bluefin is a gem for Newport and Laguna, and a go-to sushi spot for many, making it suitable for both casual lunches and special date nights.
