Sugarfish By Sushi Nozawa - Pasadena

Very delicately prepared take and very worthy of IG. It is a bit expensive and I was still hungry, even if I ordered to share some additional roles. It was worth a try! I wanted to pick it up on Friday night at 9 a.m. and the restaurant was so full! Excellent service and friendly host.

We used to live in LA and the one spot we had to go back within the 2 days visiting was sugarfish! The most clutch and affordable sushi place you will ever find. Consistency wise you can't beat them! Try kazu nori as well if you have not already. Same owner, just as delicious but a different experience. The fish melts in your mouth along with the perfectly temperatured rice.

Amazing dining experience! 7 courses brought out at a perfect pace, each course better than the next. Rice is warm. Seaweed crisp. The fish literally melts in your mouth. Best sushi I have ever had hands down. Service and ambience impeccable. Highly recommend!

I waited for almost 2 hours to get it... And I was excited for every second because I knew it was worth the hype and anticipation..... And then when I got the text that said I was next in line I came inside and checked in, and the host even acknowledged me and told me I was next in person.... However after the person in front of me was seated the hostess marked me as a no show while I was 6 feet away from her and then called 3 other parties ahead of me. Eventually I spoke up and was seated promptly but..... The organization and concentration needs work.

Reasonable prices and delicious quality fish! If you are new to sushi, this is especially a great place to try out. It is simply delicious and gives you a good idea of what sushi is about without all the frills of modern sushi restaurants nowadays. The fish will literally MELT IN YOUR MOUTH! Any of the set menus are great and have a variety of fish. Nigiri, edamame, sashimi, and handrolls are included in all of them. I definitely recommend getting the regular TRUST ME to get the best value. Ask to switch out the hirame for the bay scallops if you can :
