   Sandfish Sushi and Whiskey is a fantastic gem with a neighborhood feel. It's the best combination of elite sushi with an easy and accommodating atmosphere. Service is excellent, servers are happy and the chef's are top-notch. The Sandfish Sashimi is remarkable, the chef finds the herbs and dressings at the local farmers market, so the nuance of flavors is always a new experience.

   Very disappointed. They changed the menu and it is not for the best. They removed many many items from their happy hour menu and also removed many other items from their main menu. Was our favorite sushi date night spot but because of the changes not sure we would go back. My wife and I were both disappointed.

   This was the second visit to Sandfish. I ordered mostly the same items. However, i noted that portions were smaller than expected. Also, the last two bites of the octopus were unchewable. The sauce provided with it was bland. I had to add Tamari sauce for flavor. In addition, the sushi (yellowtail) pieces I ordered were quite small and cost $8 for one small piece. I won't be ordering sushi again. Too expensive for what you get. I had a pina colada, but it was not very sweet, it had mint leaves on it, which I don't care for (and no other bar has ever put leaves on a pina colada), and lots of foam for no reason. I did not order foam. I ordered it on the rocks. It should not have had any foam on it. For the prices, you need to do better.

   We haven’t been since August. Felt like there were changes… the new Executive Chef felt the need to walk around and meet his guests instead of watching over the kitchen. It took forever to get our food and the menu was different. Overall Not as good. The bathrooms also needed some tiding up. This was our go to for sushi…not going to be in a hurry to go back

   This is a new level of sushi! Their signature rolls are a must try. We had the venue roll and although it’s listed as spicy, it was insignificantly but it was wickedly scrumptious. We also had their tuna tataki tacos as an appetizer which were aggressively yummy! And also tried the broccolini and baby bok choy which based on the serving should be a side dish or an appetizer. The portion should not be listed as a signature dish. The only disappointment was the customer service. I understand we can all have our days which is why I would go back, for the mouth watering sushi and to give customer service a second chance.

   An Unforgettable Dining Experience! Sandfish Sushi is hands down one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. From the moment we sat down, the ambiance was welcoming and sophisticated. Instead of choosing from the menu, we decided to let the chef take the lead—and wow, what a decision that was! Every dish was a masterpiece, carefully crafted with the freshest ingredients and incredible attention to detail. The chef’s selections took us on a culinary journey, introducing us to flavors and combinations we never would’ve thought to try. Each bite was a delightful surprise, and you could taste the passion and creativity behind every plate. The service was impeccable, with the staff making us feel like VIPs the entire evening. If you’re looking for more than just a meal, but an experience, Sandfish Sushi is it. I can’t recommend it enough and will definitely be coming back soon!

   Sandfish Sushi and Whiskey provides a very unique sushi experience. There are different combinations and flavors that you won't find at any other sushi restaurant. They also have some unique and delicious cocktails. Ambience is perfect for a wonderful date night!
