This contemporary Japanese eatery in Ravenswood serves a selection of inventive entrees such as hamachi kama (grilled yellowtail collar with citrus soy, served with asparagus and Japanese mint salad) alongside a long list of maki, nigiri and sashimi. In addition to more traditional offerings, house rolls include the Red Dragon, bigeye tuna over soft-shell crab, avocado and asparagus in house citrus sauce, topped with black tobiko and radish sprouts. The modern dining room sports a cool gray color palette with bold magenta and lime accents and sleek furniture. Blue Ocean is BYOB for now. An adjacent wine cellar offering wine and sake at retail prices will open when the restaurant receives its liquor license.
