Profile

An attractive after-work, pre-curtain set swarms the all-glass corner bar with its view of Times Square. And everyone clutches the fruity Blue Fin cocktail, garnished with Swedish Fish. Those looking for a more intimate atmosphere will prefer the second floor's darker bar, with its lower ceilings and live jazz. The full restaurant menu can be ordered at either locale. And the huge staircase is ideal for a dramatic entrance or exit.

The sushi was up there with the best sushi I have ever had. The service was great and the decor was absolutely fabulous.

Fish Bowl

This fish bowl on the Broadway entrance to Blue Fin is a great place to watch people and have people watch you. For both exhibitionists and voyeurs. Oh yeah, the drinks are OK too.
