Until the advent of Terminal 5, eating at JFK was usually disastrous, not least because of the low quality of most food outlets as well as the endless noise. Deep Blue Sushi at its earlier location at JetBlue's Terminal 6 really stood out from the crowd as a tranquil and relaxing place to enjoy a sushi meal before takeoff. With deep blue iridescent mosaic tiles, patterned illuminated blue glass, and the nifty lit sculptural metal tuna, Deep Blue carved out a pleasant and enjoyable place to eat.

Now in the stellar Terminal 5, Chef Michael Schulson offers numerous sushi creations; having opened Buddakan, he assuredly knows the flavors of Asia like few other chefs.
