ATMOSPHERE:
Blue C Sushi is a kaiten sushi restaurant which means it has a conveyer belt that carries sushi around the restaurant and you can choose what you want to eat from the conveyer belt. The sushi is placed on different colored plates which correspond to different prices. If you are not familiar with sushi or just getting started, this is a great place to start because you get to see the sushi go by right in front of your eyes and decide what looks good to you. There is a bar upstairs with Happy Hour specials. Blue-C in Fremont attracts a younger crowd, college students and young business people.

SUSHI:
Disneyland doesn’t offer best food, and nobody remembers what they ate for lunch in the Fantasy World, but it sure is fun to be there. And that’s what eating at Blue-C Sushi is like. You don’t particularly remember how good the sushi is, but you remember seeing octopus sushi coming up past you from your blind spot or the young blonde girl making sushi behind the conveyer. If you are a sushi connoisseur, you probably won’t approve of their sushi that was made in a mold instead of by hand, but if your non-sushi-connoisseur relatives are visiting from out of town, take them here.

OTHER DISHES:
It’s not just the sushi you see on the colored plates. If someone doesn’t like any type of sushi, then they can choose to pick up fried chicken or yakisoba that comes around. Their chicken katsu is generally pretty good. If you love sweets, try their cream puffs or cheese cake. Their desserts are made fresh daily by a Japanese pastry chef and tastes great (not too sweet!)

SERVICE:
Since you are grabbing the food that comes floating in front of your eyes, the service is really fast. If you are really hungry and don’t want to wait 2 minutes, it’s great because you sit down and grab the first plate that comes by. Since they don’t offer any unusual sushi here, the wait staff usually know the general difference between yellow tail and ahi tuna. If you want a certain fish that you don’t see on the belt, you can shout out whatever it is that you want, and the chef behind the counter could make it for you (using the mold).
