Sugar Fish

I had the "Trust Me" for lunch and I was blown away by the flavor. I think people who don't like Sugarfish might have an issue with a sort of "fishy' smell associated with fish. The thing is, I noticed it wasn't the fish that smelled fishy, it was the seaweed. Good authentic seaweed has a bit of that factor, like when you smell a fish oil supplement bottle. For me it added to the flavor in a slight limburger niche strong food kind of way. It wasn't THAT strong at all, but it rose an alert on my senses which resulted in the calm and enjoyment of the great flavors of the sushi. The ponzu had a zest to it. Even the mayo was clearly no ordinary mayo. It was creamier and a little sweet. The space was only too limited in the atmosphere. I hope they expand it. I'll be going back for big events with my sushi loving friends and fam. Oh, and in true authentic Japanese fashion, tipping was not asked for nor given as an option on the receipt. I love that. Tips are a manipulative tactic of business owners who should not own businesses. American restaurants need to pay their staff. I can thank them and advertise them when they are exceptional.

The price for an a-list place like this is superb. I recommend the fixed price menu, but not the most expensive one because I got that while my mom had the standard, and there was barely any difference. The service is world class. The portions are tiny but fulfilling as they come out one by one. The taste is mostly fantastic, a couple items that were disappointing. Vibe is cozy but very very dark. Some annoying ppl sitting next to us ruined the vibes. I’ve been to tons of Japanese restaurants and pan Japanese ie Nikkei and this was definitely one I’d take my boujee friends to when they come visit

Sugarfish is an excellent sushi restaurant known for its high-quality service and fresh fish. The dining experience at this establishment is exceptional, and I highly recommend trying 'The Nozawa Trust Me' experience. This culinary journey is worth its price, and you will undoubtedly be satisfied with the quality and variety of sushi.

Visited this branch after only visiting a NYC one, the experience is quite on par, just that the place is quite small and because of the no table booking policy, it could be hard to get seated. We chose to sit on the bar and it was quite alright. Service is ok, but food is really top notch, as usual. They offer substitutes for whatever you don’t eat. So don’t be ashamed of asking.
