Located in the heart of downtown Omaha, the Old Market holds some special gems, one of them being the glorious Blue Sushi Sake Grill. You would think that Omaha would not have any good sushi, but this place sure does. The combinations of sushi rolls are endless, and the variety they offer ensures that you will find something to your liking.  

 The Cabo roll is one of the special but simple rolls Blue offers, which consists of a crab mix and cucumber inside bigeye tuna, glazed with spicy mayo and garnished with scallions. This luscious roll is a burst of flavors in your mouth and gets better with every bite. It also holds an amount of spice that won’t be overpowering, burn your mouth off or hinder your taste of the fish. It does, however, have a little kick to it.  

 If raw fish is not your favorite, Blue Sushi also offers a variety of cooked rolls such as “Cloud Nine 2.0,” which includes imitation crab mix along with crispy fried tempura shrimp and baked sea bass, seasoned with cilantro and serrano and topped off with ponzu sauce. This roll is sweet and salty and has that perfect, delectable balance of flavors. 

Blue Sushi also has amazing appetizers to pair with its rolls. From the classic miso soup to the delicacy of ceviche, there is so much to try. Its charred edamame is one of its appetizers that is very simple yet so powerful. It makes you want to order it over and over. You can choose the traditional sea salt seasoning, or, if you are feeling up to it, spicy garlic, tamari or togarashi. The chefs at Blue Sushi char the soybeans on the grill for that extra flavor and barbeque effect. These appetizers are also very shareable amongst your party and would be great side dishes for the sushi main event. 

 Blue Sushi Sake Grill is not too far from Creighton University, as it lies in the Old Market. If you have not tried out Blue Sushi Sake Grill yet and are looking for a fantastic restaurant, this is the place to go.
