Wonderful staff, but the food tastes like the place smells - bad. I had the protein and hangover rolls - the wasabi tastes like straight horseradish and the fish was a minimum three days old.

Neighborhood sushi spot that is comfortable and friendly. The sushi is good. Lollipop sushi (cucumber wrapped sushi in a bed of rice vinegar) and mussels are particularly tasty. We will be back for happy hour specials with extra rolls and BOGO offerings.

10/10 experience, the staff was very friendly, the sushi was fresh and the presentation was so pretty! The music was great and the establishment was peaceful. Highly recommended!! The price wasn't even steep for 4 rolls plus free rolls that come with the special! They even box up your food for you. 🥹

The food was not particularly good, though the portions were adequate. Our waiter seemed quite unsure of himself.

And now comes the most important part: our bill was around 90 dollars, but the waiter simply charged 20 dollars more when one of my family members gave him the card in trust. He took the liberty of adding extra money even though we trusted him with the card. On top of that, since we didn’t know about it right away, we also left a 5 dollar tip in cash separately, outside of the card payment.

This is absolutely unacceptable. My family member is a student, and that amount of money is a lot for her. In the end, he took over 30 dollars more from us, even though we had already spent 90 dollars as a group.

This place is definitely not recommendable. For me, honesty is a top priority, and here it was completely missing. Taste-wise, it wasn’t anything special either — never again. I would absolutely not recommend this restaurant if you value honesty and professionalism.

Love this spot, been coming since I was a kid. The service is always polite and kind, the food is of quality ingredients; delicious, and hard to find a fair price like this. 10/10 I keep coming back.

OCEAN BLUE used to be my go to sushi spot.. until recently I witnessed a sushi chef helping the waiter clean the table using the same glove he made sushi with and after cleaning the table he went back to make sushi with that same glove on. I think most people tend to forget to change gloves.. and sometimes it is even better to do things bare hands and keep washing your hands instead of using gloves over and over until it’s worn out. Just take cautious of those little things please

Excellent sushi. Always good service. Just go.

The place is dirty. They were also shut down by the health inspector for rodents and droppings all over the restaurant

The eel and The hangover roll are a must for first timers. By far the best sushi spot in Tampa Bay. Ask for chef Toshi, he will treat you right. Great selection of sake 🍶.

We ordered delivery from here and mostly felt like it was a waste of money. We both ordered bento boxes, which did have a great California roll and miso soup and salad… but our dishes, which were the most important part, were not good. I got the chicken teriyaki and that was basically just a bed of steamed vegetables and a slice of chicken breast with poured on teriyaki sauce. Like they just placed everything in the container and put a bottle of teriyaki sauce on top. The pork Katsu was the same thing. Meat was dry. Which all these other reviews warned about. I could tell by the California roll though that maybe this place is mostly good for sushi. Even for a plain sushi like that, it tasted very fresh and yummy.
