We have been going to Blue Nami for 4 years now. We LOVE this place. I would say that their sushi is just as good as Mikuni's and much less expensive. The people are really nice there and the service is quick. They also have some great rolls. My favorites are the Jack #2, Yumi Yumi, Flying Tiger, Maui Wowi, and Boyfriend. The also have a good selection of other japanese food as well. Their Chicken Katsu is REALLY GOOD! I would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone looking for a quaint, hole-in-the-wall sushi restaurant that has great food and friendly service.

We live in Midtown and have eaten at many of the downtown/midtown restaurants, including the more popular ones, but when we can make some time, we always head out to Orangevale to Blue Nami, because the Sushi is simply a bit better than any we can find here. While the strip mall location leaves something to be desired when you drive up, the place is actually quite nice inside. The sashimi has always been fresh and tasty for us, and the rolls are very good as well. The best Sushi place I have been to in my 5 or so years in the Sacramento area.

Blue Nami may have a smaller sushi menu than other places in town, with several rolls that truly are different than other places. One difference we notice is they use more herbs like basil & cilantro. Some of the sauces that are served with the rolls are different and have a better taste as well. If Blue Nami wanted to, they could create a bigger menu like the other guys out there, simply by adding, removing, or just changing one(1) ingredient on a roll. From my experience(s), the chef?s at Blue Nami will just do this if you really want them to. The atmosphere is quaint, and the staff is very nice. Sometimes the service can be a little slow, but the over all experience is great. The Orangevale restaurant is my favorite, with great service, and the chef?s are very friendly. Favorites: Golden Blue, Special-K, Salmon De Paris Their BBQ Ahi is not as good as other places.

Excellent quality, and great service. Both of their locations are clean with a great atmosphere for the whole family. Rolls to try the Blue Nami, and Oh Yes. One on my favorites is the Chirasi over sushi rice. Their prices are not really bad for the quality you receive, far far better than Mikuni's quality and service any day.

I would disregard the negative comment about getting sick. If their tab was 75 for two then they ate too much and shouldn't complain. Their food is always fresh. I go there almost exclusively for sushi. Sure they're a bit pricey, but they are unbeatable. Excellent staff. Recommended rolls: Blue Nami Roll, Yummi Yummi, Jack #2, Stardust.. hard to go wrong. House salad is amazing, Miso soup is delicious, Green Tea ice cream is to die for.. Give this place a shot and you will become a regular.
