I frequent the San Francisco Blowfish and it is much better. San Jose has a cool space, but does not have it together at all. The service was horrible. Our party of 6 was largely ignored, orders took a long while to get, the waiter spilled my glass of sake and did not offer to replace, etc. In the end, there was an automatic 20% tip on the bill, which is not normal for under 8 people. Plus at best the service mertited 5%. I will not return to the San Jose Blowfish and stick to San Francisco.
Pros: Dark, cool space
Cons: Noisy, poor service, average food
