    Love Sandfish! The ambience is perfect and intimate and I really love the music they play as well. Each dish is well curated and it’s definitely more of an “if you know you know” type of spot. Miso - 9/10 - it is 9 dollars for miso, but it’s much heartier and larger than your typical sushi place, worth it. Beef Gyoza - 7/10 - They’re good, but not a must order. Presentation is nice but also can be a little soggy. I also prefer pan fried gyoza so the option to do so would be nice. NY Strip Stone - 9/10 - Soooo tasty, and the fries are actually really solid for a sushi place. The dipping sauces each brought a new flavor profile to the mix and the beef is clearly quality. The stone is also pretty fun everyone just turns their head to see what smells so good. Worth the price but wish there was a little more meat. Sandfish roll - 9/10 - worth the specialty roll price as the truffle flavor is a great enhancer of the roll rather than overpowering it. Have gotten it twice now and really recommend it. Tuna tartare cones - 4/10 - least favourite I’ve tried. The cone was weird and had a bit of a sweet flavor to it that I’d prefer not to have again. Would much rather take a normal hand roll with spicy tuna than this. Ube cake roll - 8/10 - absolutely delicious and not your typical sushi spot dessert. Also so tiny I could realistically eat it in 3 bites by myself. Not a sharing portion. Piña Colada - 10/10 - if you like taro and well balanced drinks you’ll love this. Not too sweet, not too strong. The bartenders here are incredible and every drink I’ve had I’ve loved.

    Loved it. It was our first time there and we will definitely go back. Great place for an intimate dinner for 2 (which we had) or for a group. Service was friendly and fantastic.

    Very kind servers, sushi was good. The blue zushi was a little underseasoned. The lychee martini is overly sweet. But the venue roll was amazing!

    We were in from out of town and found Sandfish out of downtown for a birthday dinner. The night started out great with our server taking our drink and appetizers order. Our server disappeared and ignored us after that. I walked from the back patio to the front of the restaurant and requested a manager. Josh stepped in and was incredibly accommodating!! He turned our night around completely! The food was absolutely delicious and wonderful. I would highly recommend the restaurant 😍

    Outstanding experience with fabulous customer service. The chef preparation and sushi quality was worth the price. Sat outside in back patio that was comfortable and cozy. Waitress & waiters were very well trained and excellent hosts for our first visit. Will definitely be back👍😎
