About SUGARFISH by sushi nozawa
SUGARFISH, a food-centric full-service restaurant, features a unique omakase-style service based on Nozawaโs 50 plus years of experience in Japan and the US. The menu features only tradition-based sushi of the highest quality, offered in four "Trust Meยฎ" options, as well as an array of a la carte sashimi, sushi, and hand rolls made with carefully sourced fish, warm and loosely-packed rice, and crisp nori. SUGARFISH has locations in Los Angeles and New York City. For more information follow SUGARFISH on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
Located at 1345 2nd St, Santa Monica, CA 90401, SUGARFISH by sushi nozawa operates as a japanese serving Santa Monica in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as japanese restaurant, so it may cover more than the name suggests.
This group covers Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and other Asian cuisines that are not Chinese, and the etiquette varies by kitchen. Japanese and Korean restaurants often take reservations for dinner and may add a service charge for large groups; Thai and Vietnamese spots are usually walk-in and quick-turnover. Spice levels are frequently adjustable on request at Thai, Indian and Sichuan-adjacent menus, so say if you want it mild or hot. Korean BBQ restaurants typically charge per person for all-you-can-eat service with a time limit, and grills are shared at the table. Vietnamese pho shops post bowl sizes (regular or large) and a plate of herbs, bean sprouts and lime is normal to add yourself. Card and tap-to-pay are widely accepted; cash-only is more common at small family-run counters.
Hours are published for 7 days a week. Typical hours are 11:30 amโ10 pm.

Santa Monica is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Santa Monica follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I highly recommend this location! It's different from the Brentwood and Marina del Rey locations. If you come at night, be aware that the lighting is pretty dim, so it can be hard to read the menu. However, the food was great! I recommend the $60 setโit was perfect for two people and definitely worth it.

I was in town on business and decided to try Sugarfish for a take out order. I ordered Organic Edamame, Salmon Eggs, Uni (sea urchin gonads), 2 cut roll with Lobster and Yellowtail Sushi. Everything was well prepared and tasted pleasant. But to be honest, I just did not understand the crazy hype and prices. They even add a bunch of other fees (almost 20%) to all orders, even carry out. As for the vibe, itโs always jam packed. So be prepared to wait, even on weeknights. Inside it is pretty loud. All in all it is a very nice and elegant restaurant with bar, with not a lot of seats, so it adds a lot of character.

I've been to this location (and a bunch of the others) a bunch of times and this time, I was genuinely disappointed. The fish quality was good as always, and maybe it was lunch or the first table they served, but the rice quality, temperature and form was TOTALLY off. The rice was cold, the rice was meh and the rice fell apart on every piece. I've never had this happen before. You come to SUGARFISH for the rice! I hope it was a 1 time thing and I'll definitely go back to try it one more time, but maybe lunch is the wrong time to go? We'll see. I'll edit this after I go back. ๐

My daughters and I came here on a recommendation from one of my employees while in town for our mother daughter vacation. We love sushi and being from Pennsylvania wanted to try a great place while on the California coast. I decided to get the nozawa trust me and let my daughters try some of it so they could try a bunch of new things, plus we ordered a ton of individual pieces and a few hand rolls. Everything was fresh and delicious and my younger daughter even said I ruined sushi for her because it was so good. And on top of that it was reasonably priced. The only negative was that at times it was hard to get a servers attention, and since we didnโt have just one they were all sort of just running around all over the place. I would definitely come back here next time Iโm in the area.

What a gem. Only few blocks from the beach, parking with discounted rate is babble right next door for $4.50. Pleasant simple ambiance. Very much quality fish and tasty chips execution. First time here I enjoyed $59 chefโs special. A surprise, makes it easy not to choose any rolls or sashimi. All came so delectable with variety as well as filling. You wonโt be hungry after this. 16% service fee is included as this is no tip establishment. Highly recommend. The prices are reasonable for Santa Monica, Iโd say even very attractive. Kind service and clean place.
