"If you’re tired of hearing about how great Sugarfish is, sorry, we have nothing in common. But if you see where we’re coming from, we ranked every Sugarfish location for you because why not? Our love for Sugarfish really stems from the fact that it’s hard to find consistent, higher-quality sushi at these prices anywhere else in Los Angeles. You’re looking at an eight-course sushi/sashimi experience for around $30, and there’s probably a location within a 15-minute drive of your house." - jess basser sanders, brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
"Why do people always forget about La Brea? Maybe because it’s so close to the Beverly Hills one, or perhaps it gets overshadowed by its neighbors, Republique, Burgers 99, and (swoon), Nong La. Whatever. There’s always a ton of street parking (outside the hours of 7-9am and 4-7pm on weekdays), lines move quite quickly, and if you’re really, really hungry, you can stop by Nong La and grab a little snack." - kat hong
"This city has no shortage of sushi empires. But anytime we’re asked where someone should go for their first bite of sushi in LA, we undoubtedly answer Sugarfish. The casual, prix-fixe menu spot from legendary Chef Nozawa has completely taken over this city (both literally and figuratively), and if you think they’re done growing, you’re sorely mistaken. But what’s most impressive about Sugarfish is despite the rapid expansion, the product on the table hasn’t slipped a notch." - brant cox, katherine lewin
"You just landed at LAX after a week of eating broiled whitefish in the Midwest, and you need LA sushi back in your life immediately. Luckily, we have Sugarfish and no matter what awkward time of the afternoon you fly in, it’ll be open. Plus, with locations literally everywhere these days, chances are your Uber home will pass at least one of them." - brant cox
"If the current sushi scene in LA was first-century Europe, then Sugarfish would be the Roman Empire. With locations from Marina del Rey to Pasadena, this casual, prix-fixe chain has quite literally taken over the city. And for a good reason - no one else can match their high-quality fish, ruthlessly consistent operation, and unbeatable prices. For just $33 ($27 at lunch), you’ll get eight courses of incredible sushi, including sashimi and two handrolls, which is one of the best deals in the city, right up there with having a washer/dryer in-unit and the secret parking lot behind House of Pies." - brant cox, kat hong
