Do they still do this? Their website seems to indicate otherwise.

it looks like they switched it to buy one get one free

2/1/2011 12:08:09 PM

the lines were never worth it when they did do it

2/1/2011 12:08:18 PM

More like "make you drink seven $5 beers while you wait in line 2 hours" to save a few bucks on dinner. In the meantime the hostess is letting all her friends pass you on the waitlist

2/1/2011 12:12:23 PM

yeah, went last night and was informed that they had changed to buy one get one free and that they would no longer do separate checks (akin to sushi thai off of lake boone)

2/1/2011 12:22:34 PM

i haven't had to worry about splitting bills i guess. thankfully

2/1/2011 12:24:29 PM

either way, the sushi there is still fucking horrible.

2/1/2011 12:40:22 PM

Well for a while there they changed from Tues/Thur half-priced to like Sun-Thur half-priced. Now it seems it's gone completely.

Meh, I won't be going there any time soon now. The half-priced deal was the only thing that drew me in occasionally. There's a ton of other better places.

2/1/2011 12:40:57 PM

tried to get in on that once...waited for 2 hours only to see 3 sets of people just walk in and get seats. I think walked over to Tobacco Rd and had better food than some shitty-ass designer sushi rolls. Never again!

2/1/2011 12:42:39 PM

booooooo when did they stop doing that? i can't eat 2 whole rolls of sushi

no but seriously i love their sushi

Whaaa? I love Sushi Blues!
They were doing half price a few weeks ago when I last went, they changed it to every night instead of just t/th sometime last year. Why would they switch it back?

Never had a problem with the hostess, but yeah, the wait can be rather excessive. I usually on have trouble Saturday nights...

So they went from 1/2 price sushi two nights a week, essentially having to eat dinner @ or after 10pm, and wait in huge lines for the deal, to BOGO every night of the week, SUN-THURS all day and Fri/Sat after 10 and you guys are complaining???

This sounds awesome if I am reading it correctly!

Yeah that pissed me off last time I went there. Dude was so blatantly obvious about it too.

Sushi 9 does buy one roll get one free every night.

and their shit is actually fucking delicious. I was blown away by what they've done with that place since Ten Ten.

2/1/2011 6:38:14 PM

Really? I looked at their menu online and was unimpressed...

2/1/2011 6:53:59 PM

^^ The inside looks so much better than it did when it was Ten Ten. And the sushi was pretty good to, this coming from a guy who typically doesn't like it.

Welcome to life. Friends get preferential treatment. Don't like it? Get better friends.

2/1/2011 8:07:27 PM

you were unimpressed by their food by looking at a menu online?

all right.

2/1/2011 10:46:33 PM

just by their choices and menu I guess. It didn't seem anything special to be worth the price.

you, MA'AM, have misfiring synapses. I sympathize.

I mean, really, you can be that GIRL who is unimpressed by the mere textual representation of a place.

Or, you can live a little and go taste some shit.

For me, every damn sushi place I go to has the same menu, more or less.

Just like every pizza place has a damned pepperoni pizza.

I mean, damn.

Pretty sure they do it all the time, but I was told they jacked up the prices 2X to compensation. It was tasty though, as was the cashew chicken I had ($7.25 and comes with white or brown rice and a salad or miso soon. Good deal in my book.) Will return soon.
