Profile

This may be the best raw fish in town—and the sake selection is tremendous. Blue Ribbon Sushi strives to be the Japanese mirror image of its Blue Ribbon brethren (brothers Bruce and Eric Bromberg also own Blue Ribbon, Blue Ribbon Bakery, Blue Ribbon Market, Blue Ribbon Sushi Brooklyn and Brooklyn Blue Ribbon), with frequent success, though it lacks some of the single-minded focus of its predecessors.

Extra

Bruce Bromberg (who also owns Blue Ribbon and Blue Ribbon Bakery with his brother Eric) trained with Michelin three-star chef Pierre Gagnaire in France.
