I went with the “trust me” omakase and added an a la carte item.
Price was fairly decent for the amount of items that make with it.
The rice to fish ratio was good and the seasoning on the rice was good. I liked that the rice was warm and not on the colder side as some other places do. The rice should be a good temperature when paired on sushi. I did not, however, like how the rice was falling apart so easily in all of the nigiris. Overall, flavor was delicious. I definitely enjoyed every bite.
I liked that seating was cushioned and comfortable. Would’ve like a slightly bigger table, but it was fine.
What ruined the atmosphere was the blaring alarm. The fire alarm at the entire plaza went off. From the looks off of the staffs faces, this seemed like a regular thing and even they were over it.
Overall, first time experience was enjoyable, would come again.
SUGARFISH is the latter.
No neon rolls drowning in aioli. No torched mayonnaise theatrics. No chef with a blowtorch trying to audition for TikTok. Just rice that’s seasoned like someone actually cares, fish that tastes like it met the ocean recently, and a quiet understanding that good sushi does not need a personality disorder.
The progression is deliberate. Warm rice. Cool fish. Clean cuts. Nothing fights. Nothing screams. It’s sushi that trusts itself.
The toro is buttery without feeling indulgent. The yellowtail is clean and almost sweet. The hand rolls arrive crisp and immediate, like they should, not sitting around contemplating life choices. Even the albacore, often abused elsewhere, is handled with restraint and balance.
Service is efficient in that slightly minimalist, we’re-all-adults-here way. They won’t narrate your meal, and frankly, they don’t need to. The system works. You sit down. You eat what they give you. You’re happier than when you walked in.
Atmosphere? Understated. Calm. Almost monastic. It’s not trying to be Tokyo. It’s not trying to be LA either. It’s just trying to get the rice right.
And it does.
Yes, it’s over $100 a head if you lean in. And yes, you could find sushi cheaper. But this is what happens when discipline wins over drama.
In a city addicted to reinvention, SUGARFISH quietly reminds you that simplicity — done correctly — is still radical.
I’ll be back.
Expect to wait a while for seats but it’s worth it!
Edit: came back to the new location and everything was off. The service was terrible, the sushi came out at weird times, even the uni didn’t taste as fresh. Would not go back again.
Previous review:
All 4 of us ordered the “Don’t think. Just eat” for $55, and it was a ton of food. My wife and mother-in-law couldn’t finish theirs so they have extra pieces to my father-in-law and me. I was stuffed at the end but still had to try their uni, which was amazing. Don’t hesitate. Just come here and be pleased with good sushi.
