"Even in a genre of dining as supremely weird as the clubstaurant, Sexy Fish stands out as the most bizarre. Where to even start with this place? There’s a life-size figure of Daniel Craig as James Bond in the men’s bathroom. The massive pink and blue dining room is covered in shiny sculptures of sea creatures. This place is what would happen if The Little Mermaid spent too much time in Ibiza. Why do people come here? Mostly to take photos of the ridiculous things we just mentioned. The menu is a mix of sushi, wagyu this, and truffle that. It’s pretty whatever. It’s also what people are paying the least attention to here, especially during dinner, when the dining room turns into a hallucinogenic fever dream of nautical go-go dancers and sparkly bottle service. Lunch is pretty easy to book. A Saturday dinner is less so (but easier with a bigger party of four or more). Look on Resy either very early in the morning or very late at night. That seems to be when they release new dinner slots about a month out. You can try to walk in for a drink at the bar, but they have a very imposing velvet rope outside and we can’t think of anything sadder than being turned away from the Sexy Fish bar." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino
