We were in town for a meeting and someone in the group had been here before so we went for lunch. It was well presented and very fresh. The taster special was a good choice with a few dishes I wouldn't have ordered but they were delicious. Not too spicy but there was a kick on one of the small... More

We've stayed nearby at the Omni Hotel and decided not to walk to Little Tokyo. With "Sugarfish" located in an Art-Deco style Building we found a contemporary styled, modern restaurant with a friendly service. We picked "The Nozawa" menu, a combination of Edamame, Sashimi, Sushi, Rolls and Daily Special and were very satisfied. Everything was freshly prepared and we simply... More

In town for a few days. Sugarfish was recommended by hotel. Wow. Surprisly fresh, like dissolve in my mouth fresh. Rice was uniquely warm and seaweed crispy fresh. I jumped in with the 'Trust Me' special. Just right. Tasty and zingy sauses. Great sushi!

Small restaurant located in downtown LA. Great sushi served on warm rice, nice presentation. Service is friendly but needs to be more attentive--had to ask for water four times before being served, order was not taken properly.

Sugarfish has a limited but quality menu. They have a 3 tiered 'trust me' menu that apparently most people order. I ordered the trust me light and was going to add the oysters, but was told they were out. Made me wonder that if 90%+ diners order one of the trust me menus, how fresh is the ala carte? That...

Sugarfish has several locations in the city and if you are in the mood for good sushi, good service you can just pop in and get one of their menus.

It's not the best sushi joint in Los Angeles. However, when in central downtown and you have a sushi craving, this place will more than satisfy your desire. The fish is fresh but the rice could be better.

My husband and I agree...this is the best sushi we have ever had! We love food, and we love to travel, so this is saying a lot. It was fresh, amazing and just melted in my mouth, so tender! The tuna sashimi, yellowtail, halibut....all were fabulous. We went early around 6:30 and were surprised at how many kids were there... More
