Deep Blue Sushi

Deep Blue Sushi - JFK Terminal 5: “The QR Code Hunger Games Experience” I have a sacred rule: never eat at airports. It’s like voluntarily setting money on fire while destroying your health and disappointing your taste buds. But here I was at JFK Terminal 5, stomach growling, flight delayed, and my willpower weaker than their WiFi signal. Blue Table Sushi beckoned with promises of dragon rolls and regret. The “service” here is about as real as airplane legroom. They’ve replaced human interaction with a QR code system that works about as well as a chocolate teapot. After scanning more codes than a grocery store cashier on Black Friday, I finally managed to place my order through their glitchy web portal that seemed designed by someone who clearly never intended to actually eat there (but does try to trick you into paying exorbitant gratuity for service that will never exist). Then came the waiting game. And waiting. And more waiting. I watched three boarding announcements, two gate changes, and a small child learn to walk before my dragon roll made its grand entrance. When the “server” (and I use that term as loosely as airport security uses the word “quick”) finally delivered my order, they looked personally offended that I had successfully navigated their digital maze. Apparently doing their system correctly is somehow… offensive 🤷‍♂️ The sushi itself? Well, it tasted exactly like what you’d expect from airport sushi that’s been sitting around longer than some of the delayed flights. The fish had the freshness of a dad joke and the texture of disappointment. Each bite was a gentle reminder of why I made that airport food oath in the first place. Consider this experience my renewed commitment ceremony. I, once again, solemnly swear to pack snacks, embrace hunger, or survive solely on airline peanuts before subjecting myself to another round of QR code roulette and sad sushi. The only thing fresh here was my regret. Would I recommend? Only if you enjoy expensive life lessons and have already tried everything else in the terminal, including the vending machines.

Airport restaurant in JFK specializing in, as the name would imply, sushi. I ordered a dragon roll. Pros: - The roll was good. Everything tasted fresh. - Pretty fast service. - Staff was nice. - Cool aesthetic. Lots of seating options: bar, sushi station, or large tables and booths. Cons: - You have to order online by scanning a QR code or typing in the URL. Two reasons why I don’t really like this: 1. There’s a large print menu at the entrance to the restaurant, but there were none near my seat, and the online menu, while equipped with useful pictures, is less efficient to view than a print menu in my opinion, so best to decide or at least have an idea of what you want before you sit down. 2. Barely any interaction with servers feels very impersonal. The positive side to this is that it’s way better than getting a bad or even so-so waiter, but to me it’s a nicer experience to have a good waiter. Especially when they’re prompting for a standard tip at payment. - Expensive for the regular-sized sushi rolls. Unsurprising but still worth a comment. - Super minor, but the wasabi was weird. It was almost blue and very spicy, like more than normal. Not offensive but just weird. Overall would recommend since the most important part of the experience, the food, was satisfactory.

Deep blue definitely offers a unique experience that not everyone is ready for our used to, by the latest reviews and our experience as well. Took some time to review the menu and order. Once we figured it out and ordered the server came over immediately saying they were sold.oit of certain items. Navigated though that by wya of their app, got credit on the credit card and food came promptly after . The food is mediocre for a sushi place in an airport..chefs are in the middle.preparing like a traditional sushi.place. delivered by the so called server who spoke broken English . The sushi was fresh , dumplings were tasty but tiny .. We were looking for a light snack while.travrlling and deep.blue.fulfilled the needs in an airport. Would I try it again , maybe . The art of QR codes is definitely the next generations, next time I am imagining it will be Elons robots 🤙☘️

Looked cool, but the experience was disappointing. They make you order and pay with 18% tip up front! The service was not bad. Food was not good. Cheapy sushi.

This was my lunch choice over all the other options in this terminal; there aren't too many that look good! It's cool and convenient that they have QR codes at every table and seat so you can sit down and order w/o having to be waited on. You can even order drinks at the bar thay way. Foor food, thry have an okay variety -- defintely not as extensive of a menu as what you'd find at a sushi spot outside an airport. It has some of the sushi staples and a few Asian stir-fry dishes. I had a rainbow roll which was actually pretty good quality and enjoyable. I also had the chicken lettuce wraps, which were decent and got the job done. No surprise, you'll pay a premium at the airport for what you get. The roll came out super quickly and the wraps were a few minutes after. I'd maybe give this place 3 stars if it was a restaurant in Brooklyn, but they're a 4 by airport standards.

Connecting at JFK terminal 5, we had some time for lunch and need to get food for our next flight. We ordered using the QR code, the server came quickly and offered us water. We got some sushi to go and they came quickly, too. We had the lettuce wraps (3) and Shrimp Fried Rice, they were not the best, but ok for a quick lunch.

Bad experience. Be prepared to make your order through the QR code and be connected to the JetBlue wifi. Employees won't make your order no matter what, if it's not through the phone. They are rude, won't offer help to go through the process either. People have gone from here due to same thing. Water is way more expensive than soda or juices, so tap water might be your only free drink option, and they don't refill. Airplane voucher doesn't cover 18% tip the restaurant automatically request on receipt and order. Of course, you pay before you eat. Who am I tipping to? A robot at the end of the day?? Our waiting was almost 1hr for a spicy tuna roll and pineaple chicken rice. I would have rathered eat at Starbucks, right next to this restaurant.

This is a cool place to eat while at the airport. Friendly staff, relatively fast service and the prices aren’t too bad. Granted it’s an airport, so prices are a little higher but that’s expected. The croissant sandwich and fresh fruit salad were really good! Also the seats were comfy, which is important when you’re killing time waiting for you flight to board.

I was staying overnight at the nearby TWA Hotel and needed a quick dinner before heading back to the hotel for rest. Walked across the foot bridge which easily connects T5 to my hotel, there are a few eateries in the terminal including a Food Hall, I seen other restaurants, none of them appeals to my cravings. Wasn't in the mood for salad bar, pizza or burgers either. Sitting at the bar is easiest to get in and get out quickly. Service can be either hit or miss and also not consistent in service, especially during the dinner rush hour may not be the best timing. However, this one night I have discovered that the Bar is hiding its best service. Waitress was friendly and efficient as customers waiting for seats or takeout orders. As busy as JFK is, never did I feel rushed. Upon arrival, I immediately noticed QR Codes on the counter for you to order from. Was a little sticker shocked at the prices on the menu, but what can I expect? It's NYC. All I ordered was gyoza and fried rice. Food came out in about 10 minutes or so. While I sat at the counter, I stared at the 3 TV screens avoiding the chaos of the airport. What really stood out to me was the liquor selection but was extremely tired to have had any type of alcohol with my dinner. Food was okay, but hot from the kitchen. Would I come here again? Probably not.

For airport food it was pretty good. Everything was made the was I ordered it. The shrimp tempura rolls tasted a little old. Service was great everyone was very nice. It's a cool spot to sit eat and relax before a flight.

I won't make this breakfast mistake again. In all fairness, it seems that all of the restaurants offer the same breakfast, so it seems that it's the same kitchen. I ordered the: "Build Your Own Omelette Choice of three fillings, served with a biscuit and breakfast potatoes " The potatoes tasted as if they were cooked, frozen, then microwaved(with some prepped or possibly frozen chopped bell pepper (which was ordered as part as my omelette- I guess they missed) , as did the biscuit (awful)z They were room temperature (the restaurant wasn't busy- now I know why). The omelette was okay: okay enough to eat, but not to ever order again. $22 (because the 18% tip was pushed hard) wasted. Terrible. Note: I'd eaten here years ago l/pre-pandemic- and enjoyed the food was pretty good. No more- never eating here again.

We stopped in a little place to eat something before jumping on the plane. Ambience casual. Even though it was quite annoying to have to order through the online app, our server was wonderful. Food was not the greatest, but our server was the best part of coming here, being treated so well. Thank you Rubina!

JFK is not a place I enjoy flying into, having layovers at, or even looking at actually, so when I had an hour to kill and a belly to fill, Deep Blue had the seats and the food for the job. This large sushi/asian kitchen is pretty spacious, has a ton of tables, and a staff that was super friendly and helpful. The menu here has a good amount of food (especually for an airport) and the chicken and pineapple fried rice was exactly what I was looking for before my flight. You sit down and scan a barcode here, order that way, and within ten minutes our food was brought to us and we were inhaling it quickly. My dish was a pretty big size for the $15.99 we paid and it honestly tasted really good (once again, especially for airport food). Overall, Deep Blue gets a big thumbs up for being fast, friendly, and the perfect meal to have before a flight overseas. I would definitely come back the next time I'm at JFK and hope this place sticks around for good.

My husband and I had time to kill at the airport and decided to try Deep Blue since it had a cool enticing blue lighting and fake cherry blossom trees for a hip vibe. We were seated right away and the waitress was nice and accommodated my dietary needs since I am allergic to fish. The food was just okay. It's exactly what you would expect from an airport restaurant, but it was decent. I did end up getting a bit sick on my flight but it's the price I usually am willing to pay whenever I eat at a sushi restaurant because I love me some Japanese food.

Kind of a confusing place, the jetblue website says "Open 5:00am - 8:30pm. Enjoy sushi, pad thai and an inspiring menu of Asian fusion fare, as well as a full bar. (T5 Atrium)" and says nothing about a separate breakfast menu. I came here at 6am, set down all my things, and then scanned the QR code and didn't see any sushi? I was exhausted at this point so I just ordered. I got a smoked salmon bagel platter, eggs norwegian, and lemonade. The bagel was decent, nothing mind blowing, but I appreciated that they gave me lots of capers cause I love capers and the smoked salmon was really great quality! The flavor was great and the pieces were nice and thick. The eggs norweigian was the same way, star of the show was the salmon. The lemonade though, I would not reorder. It was really really sour, I added a BUNCH of salt and that made it a little better. The ambiance was interesting for breakfast. It definitely has the vibe of a cool club with moody blue lighting and lots of booths. But it was a nice reprieve from the loud gates outside. Anyways, the reason for 4 stars and not an average 3 is the service. The staff was so sweet and nice, a rare find at this airport. After 21 hours of international flights, I'm desperate to be home. Met with trouble and rudeness by multiple jetblue agents then by a TSA employee who implied I was dumb for putting my shoes on the belt not the table, who then yelled at me for not putting them on the belt, when that was what I did originally lol. And then she was super nice to the white dude behind me lol but whatever. Anyways, that's just to say, I had a rough night. 12 hour layover at probably one of the worst airports I've ever been too, so the servers here almost made me tear up tears of joy cause they smiled and said good morning to me.

This was such a great place to get dinner at the airport. The atmosphere was very calming, and it made me feel like I wasn't even in the airport. The food portions were quite large, and my chicken fried rice could have been shared between two or 3 people. You order and pay on your phone but are also provided with very good table service. Overall, it was a great experience.

Connecting at JFK terminal 5, we had some time for lunch and needed to get food for our next flight. This place looks like a good place to park a little while. We ordered using the QR code, the server came quickly and offered us water. We got some sushi to go and they came quickly, too. We had the lettuce wraps (3) and Shrimp Fried Rice, they were not the best, but ok for a quick lunch.

Deep Blue Asian Restaurant is inside Terminal 5. I have a morning flight so I ordered breakfast and coffee. I had the Eggs Norwegian, Blueberry Pancakes and a cup of coffee. The Eggs Norwegian was okay, but the breakfast potatoes that comes with it was too salty. The Blueberry Pancakes was just okay. The coffee that was served to me comes with a creamer and sugar on the side but no teaspoon to stir it so the service was so so. You sit yourself and you just scan the QR Code to place your order and pay for it. The server just served the coffee and food and checked on us a couple of times. There was a sushi bar in the middle of the dining area so you can smell the fish or the sauces from where we sat.

This is a beautiful restaurant in terminal 5 at JFK airport. That's the JetBlue lounge. IT's Japanese with sushi but they also have some Thai food. Food is reasonably priced for an airport. The serving was big. I had the pad Thai. I really liked the service. Staff was great!

On the way to ATL from NY and decided to stop. This restaurant boasts an attractive bar and sushi bar! Plenty of table, seating, and servers were on staff to immediately take my order and the food arrive within 15 minutes fresh . A nice surprise but everything was wonderful- shrimp fried rice, with vegetables. The vegetables had a nice soft crunch, not too soggy, and my miso soup was well prepared. Not too salty. I do recommend this location, they have an extensive menu with plenty of options for vegetarian. The only thing this location was lacking is a charging port or a power strip so I can eat while my phone charge.

Service was slow and inattentive. Bartender was hilarious and helpful. Recommend grabbing something at the vending machine or just sitting at the bar.

Great lunch fast service food excellent . Just wondering where did the pork ramen go ? Was my favorite!

We were in the airport with time to spare for an upcoming flight and wandered in because the ambience looked so appetizing and calm, we were hoping to have a meal that matched the peaceful nature of the restaurant. Service came quickly and was friendly and quick to check on our meal repeatedly. Although the menu is fairly limited, everything we had on the menu was solid. From the soup to the dumplings to the fried rice- nothing disappointed and we felt we received a fair meal for a fair price at the airport.

If you are flying JetBlue out of JFK, this is high on the recommendations list. This is located proximal to the TSA checkpoint so you don't have far to walk. I was seated immediately after I walked in. My server was super knowledgeable about the menu and accommodations for allergies. The wine selection has a couple of options for whites, reds, blushes, and sakes. There are a few beer and seltzer options so everyone is covered. The sushi I ordered was delicious. I definitely recommend.

The bartender started off as rude and the mimosa was the worst mimosa I ever had. I mean.... "Can I get some champagne with that orange juice?" To be fair, she warmed up after the first hour. I have a feeling she was just opening and being stressed. Still... you need to be ready to say your day and respect people who are paying these prices.

While in the airport, I became hungry and went to deep blue for some sushi. I ordered the yellowtail which was edible. Not my favorite by far. The apples don't pair well with the yellowtail and jalapeños. The staff were nice but I enjoyed the ambiance most of all.

Among the food options in the Jet Blue terminal at JFK, this seemed to be most promising. And it was ok, not splendid but ok before the flight. A bit lukewarm miso soup and sushis similar to the grocery market. But ok.

Ask for JAMILAH!!! I ordered a Lemon drop. Miso Soup, chicken lettuce wraps and salmon nigiri! Ambiance and environment was very chill and perfect for me! *Lemon drop: 10/10 My first time having one! The bartender JAMILAH is amazing! Her personality is great and she had me cracking up! Not knowing it's my birthday she literally made my day today! I appreciate you so much girly! Make sure y'all go see her!!! Food RATING FOR ME: Salmon Nigiri:8/10 fresh, can be a little colder lol I just like it cold cold. Miso soup:10/10 hot, fresh & yummy! Chicken Lettuce Wraps: 5/10, dry. No sauce what's so ever, I asked the chef and he suggested soy sauce .... Lol that was the only disappointment. Thanks JAMILAH!!!!

Service at the bar was below standards. The sole bartender wasn't very attentive, the way all bartenders should be. Took me quite a while to get her attention after 2 persons that sat after me being tended to first. Besides the blue lights, the ambiance wasn't great. The bar had a smell that I can't explain but it wasn't pleasant. The food was the highlight of the adventure. The sweet chili wings and the salmon were on the money....

Service here was sullen and unprofessional. We ordered Gyoza (mediocre at best) and Pad Thai (excellent). We asked hit plates because we were sharing. First we were told no plates snd given little French fry baskets. These got wet from the dipping g sauce. A second request hit us 4" plates that were thrown onto the table. Suggest you spend your money elsewhere.

I mean it's an airport, you can't expect the best of the best. However, I had a layover and it did the job. Service was really good and wait time was reasonable.

Great food. Bad system. Their new system of having the customers fill out their order, pay for it with little to no contact with the servers, who are really very good. I've eaten here many times before and this is a total turn off. This isn't Mickey d's this is a fine restaurant. And fine restaurants usually have servers who you can talk to and who make suggestions and more.

I tried the fried pork dumplings. My first clue should have been when I asked a few of the staff if the fried dumplings were pan fired and all seemed clueless. I ordered the dumplings. They appeared deep fried, greasy and hard not crisp (pictured). If the cheapest hard liquor didn't start at $18, I would have bought a drink just to wash it down! I opted for an overpriced Pepsi. I usually head straight to the Priority Lounge (available on most good travel credit cards e.g., Amex Platinum, Chase Sapphire). Terminal 5 has none and is light on good alternatives. Pilots recommend taking the bus at gate 25 to Terminal A for Bobby Vans. The recommendation came too late for this trip.

It is so difficult to get healthy food at an airport. This place did not disappoint, as I was able to get some miso soup and sushi while waiting for a connecting flight. Miso soup was rather watery and tasteless, and though the sushi was pretty good everything was really expensive. I was served the miso soup with a plastic teaspoon? I asked for a soup spoon which they did not have. My husband's vegetable sushi was very small for the price of the roll. Our vegetable fried rice wasn't bad and we devoured everything.

The availability of somewhat healthy food options in Terminal 5 JFK is minimal. However, I found Deep Blue and it hit the spot. The service was efficient and the area was only lightly trafficked, which is great if you are in between flights. The tuna tartare was different from what I am used to but it was tasty and very good. Then I had the Asian Chicken Lettuce Wrap. It was so good. Three on the plate and I cleaned it up. Both dishes were from the appetizer menu & the check came to $34. A steal considering the prices on everything at the airport. It's truly outrageous. I bought a liter bottle of the cheaper water for the flight and it was $8. Anyway, I digress. So, the takeaway from Terminal 5, JFK is that healthy options are minuscule for food. Deep Blue has a good sushi menu despite the fact that I just had appetizers. Chicken Lettuce Wraps & Tuna Tartare would be my go to again!!

Deep Blue is just right for a good meal between flights! It's classic over-priced airport fare, but is really quite delicious. I highly recommend the chicken lettuce wraps and rainbow sushi roll.

drinks was good. Didn't care too much for the mimosas. Buy everything else was ok. The servers was very polite and professional.

I eat at Deep Blue often. I fly JetBlue or Alaska more than any other airlines. JerBlue is in terminal 5, and I believe they have the whole place. Deep Blue is there too, and it is my favorite option for dinner. It is good enough that I have even stopped for a bite when on an inbound flight, rather than continue home. The menu is primarily sushi. They also have fried rice and other hot dishes. I regard the fish quality as above average for an airport restaurant. I have had the yellowtail and scallion roll many times. I also have had the ikura, salmon roe, and it is about as fresh as you'd expect at a non premium venue. The fried rice is surprisingly good and surprisingly generous in quantity. Nothing is bad. The drink selection is wide. They have, for example, two types of hard cider. The prices are not terrible. As they say, it is what it is. As is the norm given the location, everyone is either rushed or aggrieved about a flight delay. Every now and then, people are chatting, and I was next to two strangers who seemed to have made a connection. The wait staff are patient and tolerant. They are quite busy and can get crowded, but they do their best cleaning up. They seem to recognize me as a regular despite the volume of traffic. If you are nice, they will allow you to plug in if you are at the one or two seats at the bar opposite the outlet. Consistent with my standard operating procedure of trying to post what is positive (and truthful), not negative (even if honest), I have refrained on commenting about some alternatives elsewhere. Life is too short to think ill of others except as occurs inevitably for a moment. I will say that if I am on Alaska, over in terminal 7, if I have time go get through security twice, I will come here even with that hassle. I am familiar with other sushi offerings at JFK, and suffice it to say I have not written about any of that. That would allow an inference that is favorable about Deep Blue. It can be recommended with enthusiasm.

This was a cool place to sit down and grab a bite at before boarding my flight. Nothing was remarkable and it was a bit over priced but alas, this is what happens with airport restaurants. c'est la vie ::shrug:: Although I doubt I'll eat here again, I do want to shoutout the service. For a bustling restaurant, I noticed that my servers were very attentive and kind. They were always there when I needed them and they were conscious of my boarding time. That's really crucial at an airport and I appreciate them for it.

This place is great! When you get food at the airport you have to expect it to be overpriced and maybe not the best food, this place was a bit pricey for what it is but was really really tasty. The service was also friendly and quick, overall exceeded expectations of airport food.

I understand that one cannot expect very good restaurants at airports, but this one is way, below, average. I ordered a miso soup and a shrimp fried rice. The soup was lukewarm. The rice was too dry.

Enjoyed a Monster roll and Black Dragon while waiting for my flight. I'm giving 5 stars because for airport sushi, it was great quality. Would I bring a date here on a Saturday night? That's not what this place is for. Don't compare with your favorite Manhattan sushi place with Instagram-ish hostess. Also, service was great here which is also rare in any airport.

Horrible sushi but the Annie the waitress was really nice so I'm giving her 2 stars for her excellent service and personality. I ordered the sashimi salad with 4 types of fish (tuna, yellowtail, baby yellowtail and salmon) very thinly sliced and not as good as it should have been since they can easily fly fresh fish to JFK! The salad was mostly lettuce with some little pieces of cucumber and tomatoes. I'm still hungry $22 later. It smelled really fishy in the restaurant too which is not a good sig Came back on 9/21/19 and ordered the kampachi which is baby yellowtail accompanied by red apple, yuzu juice, pistachios, shishito peppers and green tea salt. The music is way too loud but at least I can charge my phones while having a snack. It was either really impressive or I was starving so I raise my rating to 4 stars. Now I want to order more and will since I get 20% off with my JetBlue credit card.

Wait...Jet Blue terminal has Sushi? And it's good? Okay, it is simple but, fresh, delicious and well prepared with good service. might fly Jet Blue more often?

For airport pan Asian this is pretty good, but the service.... There was one waitress for something like 20 tables and it was not pretty. I had the vegetable fried rice (honestly? It was delicious) and a spicy tuna roll (fine). Expect typical airport price gouging and leave at least an hour for eating here, no matter what you order (preferably two)

Not many options in T5, this was the only one that looks somewhat decent. Ordered the pork fried rice, pad Thai, and the salmon avocado roll. The Pad Thai was super spicy and had to waste it. Server never came back so I couldn't complain. Luckily another server was able to take my credit card and get out.

What can you say, this is an airport restaurant. The service was good and the food was fine. They were pretty busy and did look a little understaffed, but who isn't? If your between flights not a bad place to refuel!

The food options at JFK Terminal 5 are pretty miserable - so far this is the best one I've found. Remember, 3 stars means A-OK, and I would willingly eat here again (especially since I consider myself lucky not to have gotten food poisoning after my last encounter with an undercooked potsticker from the Asian restaurant in the food court). I was seated promptly and ordered shrimp pad thai since it was a hot dish and one of the cheaper menu items. A few minutes after I placed my order, I looked at my boarding pass and was horrified to realize that my flight boarded in 15 instead of 30 minutes. Flagged down my server to ask how long it would take to prepare my food, and of course she answered 10-15 minutes. When I explained my situation, she said she would check to see if my order could be done sooner. She had to walk all the way across the center area to check (apparently the hot kitchen for this restaurant is shared by the other sit-down restaurant across the way), but she didn't complain and came back to tell me they could have the food ready in 5 minutes. And then, even as she was taking care of other new customers, she actually remembered to go back in 5 minutes to pick up my food. Outstanding service! The pad thai actually tasted pretty decent as well - it was piping hot, the jumbo shrimp were fully cooked, and my only complaint was that it was a touch heavy on the fish sauce. Will definitely keep this place in mind as a viable option if I have enough time before my next flight.

amazing looks and the highest reviews. We were soon seated after entering. We observed three servers and the manager, who appeared to be standing around and chatting to one or two other people. We waited for Annie to assist us for around 8 to 10 minutes. She was a kind woman who was always running about getting things done. Before we even had drinks, the manager brought her food to the sushi bar and sat down to eat. Still only conversing and looking at their phones, servers. In any case, the dinner was excellent! Annie was definitely the mover and shaker, killing it! I'm grateful to Annie for making this experience positive.

Decent example of a tonkatsu ramen. Good portion size. The broth had decent flavor but tasted like a high heat quick bone broth boil with base added. The roast pork slices were tender, but thin. The noodles were cooked well and had decent texture. No, it's not an izakaya. It is a place to warm your belly and settle your nerves after a flight. Big city airport prices at $16. I've done far worse. Will return anytime I am craving something warm to soothe my belly

The ramen was fantastic but the pricing was insane A Sapporo should never kill your pocket, airport or not.

Ther breakfast service is absolutely lackluster and the fact you pay $20 for a nothing omelette and another for one mimosa is terrible. They don't even keep the tables clean

Got two rolls, a water, and miso soup. It was expensive but what do you expect for a nicely setup sushi bar in an airport. All that to say the rolls were excellent and the miso soup was miso soup. Ill very likely go back on my return trip. Service was fine. They were a little understaffed but I wasn't in a hurry. If you are maybe go elsewhere.

SUMMARY: In a world class food city like NY, it astounds me that that hasn't filtered down into the airport. I've had worse at JFK, but this was only marginally better. Good service though! BACKGROUND: Flying JetBlue back from NY to Oakland from a great weekend trip and needed to eat at some other place than that nasty Burger place I reviewed 2 years ago run by the laziest, apathetic teen crew I've ever witnessed with 2 eyes. FOOD- 3/5 I ordered something safe (eel roll) as I wasn't impressed by the drying out sashimi pieces in the cold case at the bar. The eel roll wasn't that far off as the sushi rice was definitely on the older side and the seaweed wasn't that far off either. Not much to say, but I still ate it and didn't have a belly ache on the plane so I consider it a dining win lol. I had a Stella Artois out of the bottle. Stella my dear, you never fail me. 5/5. SERVICE- 5/5 The all Filipino service guys and gals were great. Funny conversation they were having too about life working in the airport. Writers: if you ever want good material and develop the next hit sitcom, talk w/ these people! RETURN VISIT? Not my first choice, but I wouldn't say no either.

Stopped in to Deep Blue at the end of a long trip home...and it made our day... Great service. Great food. Great atmosphere. Our server Thupten was lights out. Polite, attentive w/o being over bearing. Highly recommended if you are @ JFK terminal 5.

This place is located at the JetBlue terminal 5 iat JFK. Decided to get the chicken lettuce wraps and the rainbow rolls before my flight. Both were a good choice and surprisingly not bad for airport food. But don't have high expectations, it's still airport quality. The prices are high but that's given because of the location. The customer service was good and the food came out pretty fast.
