Blue Water Sushi - Smithers, British Columbia

yo B.

Decided to try take out from here on the recommendation of a local. Arrived at about 7pm on a Thursday night. Busy but not a full house. Lively atmosphere.
First thoughts on the menu was a mix of surprise and disappointment that some of my old standbys and fav’s were not listed. I inquired as to the availability of a spicy tuna roll and was told no - but they did offer a Cajun tuna roll. OK, I decided to try. Also missing my other fav salmon and avocado roll, so ordered a salmon roll and a cucumber avocado roll separately.
The sushi was tasty but I was not expecting that the tuna in the Cajun roll would be cooked.
Service time was ok considering I was a walk up. The price seemed a bit on the high side at $24 for the 3 rolls.

The food was so delicious my favorite was the miso soup and the Smokey sushi. The restaurant was a large list of sushi

Really good food, sushi was awesome. Good menu options and chilli chicken bites were wicked too!

Flavour was great, service was quick and Shelley was very knowledgeable about the menu and ingredients, and the atmosphere was lively but not chaotic. A great experience and will definitely be back on a future visit to Smithers ❤️

Really good sushi, a bit heavy on the rice for the nigiri but that's fine. All of the rolls were good. Ordered the supreme platter. Service once we were actually seated was good but the service at the door was poor at best. Seemed like a bit of chaos, maybe new staff not knowing what to do or how to handle multiple groups waiting for service. Would definitely go again.

This place is the top place to eat in Smithers in my opinion! We have always been seated quickly, got our food shockingly quick, and it has never been less than exceptional. We have tried many different rolls and every single one - is 10/10 would get again! My personal favorites are the Cajun bomb and the Smokey!

Staff is always great, food is Outstanding, prices are very reasonable, location is perfect right on main! The only downfall for me is that I don’t live in Smithers or I would be there much more!

Overall good food and ambience; busy place in Smithers!

Sunomono salad: sour refreshing taste; definitely stimulating for the appetite and a good palette cleanser in between/after eating

War miso soup: such a good twist, and a heartier version of a regular miso soup. It has hints of sesame oil, chili oil, and chewy clear noodles

Spicy tuna bites: thinly breaded with cajun seasoning. The tuna did not smell or taste fishy. It’s not spicy. This was my partner’s favourite

Salmon delight “boat”: good serving size; good option if you want a well-balanced meal. It comes with a regular miso soup

Spicy sushi combo: the tuna nigiri is surprisingly fresh! And it does not have a fishy taste or smell; the tuna melted right in my mouth. The sushi roll is okay; nothing too special. The combination is not spicy at all… This order comes with a regular miso but can be upgraded to the “war miso soup” for an extra charge

Ambience and aesthetic of the place was modern and clean. There seems to be an octopus theme happening. The washroom has a baby changing station, which is a plus for parents with babies and toddlers.
