What can I say?!?! This place is the best! I've been to kaiten places throughout the world and believe me, this place is the REAL DEAL! The sushi is top quality, the atmosphere reminds of Tokyo and my kids and WALLET love it. We go twice a month and the staff knows us by name. I've never had a bad experience. Sometimes we have to wait to get in but it always seems to be well worth it. I wish I had thought of this idea! PS - try the Cream Puffs! They are better than anything you'll find in Seattle. Trust me. If you are in Univeristy Village ask Mr. Taka to make you something.

Kaiten sushi is a wonderful invention! Blue C has a very trendy atmosphere, with anime playing to music on the wall. The call buttons for the waiters are nice so that you don't end up sitting around waiting for a drink refill or for your bill. The sushi isn't anything incredible, but it's good and it's right there on the conveyor belt, so you can sit down and dig in without having to wait. :) It's a good place to bring your sushi-fearing friends, since you can see the food before deciding whether or not to try it.

I am picky like a 2 year old. When my family suggested Blue C Sushi in Fremont for dinner, I was disappointed. We ended up going for happy hour. There was no wait to get in, the decor is modern and cool with flat screen TVs showing anime films. We ordered HH beers with Amstels at just $2 each. I ordered a teriyaki chicken breast for $3. We also ordered cucumber, avocado and salmon rolls, edamame, veggie tempura and sake. All the food was $1-3. I couldn't believe it, I like sushi!! Everything was fresh, beautifully presented and delicious! The staff is very helpful and efficient. There is parking provided free of charge below, entrance is by the PCC. Happy Hour is 4-6pm every day. There is no HH at the University Village location.

I ate at Blue C for the first time this weekend, and just went back again tonight! I don't like sushi, but there were quite a few options for me. The salad, edamame, dumplings, sesame salad and tempura were excellent. The staff was excellent and very attentive. Drinks are great, and their wine list, although limited, is very nice. I really enjoyed the Sauvignon Blanc on their list.
My sushi-lover friends adore this place, and it's surprisingly reasonable!

I think this place rocks. I've eaten at so many conveyor belt sushi joints where the operators clearly don't give a crap, but these guys are doing it right.
I don't really mind that they stay very authentic without a lot of fusion rolls because in my experience fusion sushi is almost always a disappointment.
Note: They don't put Hamachi on the belt but they have it and it's great. Just order it through your server or chef. The tofu with Chili sauce is outstanding as well. Lots of great vegetarian options...and the prices are great.

i've been to blue c a few times and can't rave about it - the sushi is unimaginative, the conveyor belt is often loaded with the same sushi for 5 or 6 dishes in a row, etc. but it's decent, it's fresh, and they have a TON of veggie options which makes it great for me to go there with hubby. veggie tempura rolls, tofu rolls, different noodle salads, and on. the prices are on the high side for conveyor belt sushi, but it's not a bad place to go.

I whent to Blue C for lunch today and got right in with no wait(I've heard that it gets very busy). It was good, not the best I've had but far from the worst. The salmon and maguro were really, really good. The sockeye salmon just melted in my mouth. The rolls that I tried seemed a bit off, somehow, I couldn't put my finger on it exactly, but I definately wouldn't get them again. The unagi could have been grilled a little longer, but I tend to like it a little crispier than a lot of places serve it, so maybe that's just me. The albacore was nice and their miso was really flavorful.
I watched a few of the plates (one each of tempura, tobiko and scallop) circle the counter for the entire hour we were there, and I felt kinda sorry for the guy that sat down and grabbed one of them. If you watch what is being put out fresh, though, that's avoidable.
A lot of times kaiten sushi is less expensive than a regular sushi restaurant, but that's not really true for Blue C. We ended up spending a little more than we normally do elsewhere, but it was fun just for a bit of a change. If I go again I'll stick with just the nigiri and some miso.

I'm a sucker for places where they sushi goes around on a boat. I don't know why exactly, it's something about having all that food there and getting to snatch whatever I want without needing permission from the. With that said, I've got mixed feelings about the Blue C in Fremont. Yes, the food goes around, and usually the staff is pretty attentive. However, there's bee a couple of occasions where we've had to beg for service. The food is okay, nothing that blows my mind in either freshness or variety. But it's reasonably priced, and it comes around on those little boats.
Parking can be a nightmare unless you know to use the garage that's attached to PCC.

If you're looking to introduce someone to sushi, Blue C is the place to go. Many of the dishes are "safe" and easy (cucumber rolls galore!), and everything is labeled so you can see and read what it is you're getting. Blue C is a kaiten sushi restaurant, so the interaction with the food (watching it go by on the conveyer belt, picking out which one you want) can be fun and different.
The food is comparable in price if not slightly less than other sushi restaurants. The only problem I encounter with kaiten sushi is how much I should tip the waiter. On the one-hand, he brought me my drink and calculated my bill. On the other hand, all he did was bring me my drink and calculate my bill. Decisions, decisions.
Blue C is adorned with metal walls and non-traditional lighting that give the restaurant a decidedly cool, modern and almost sterile feel--which doesn't hurt if you're trying to convince someone over to the sushi world. There is a waiting area/bar upstairs, but I find the drinks a little pricey.
