We had probably the best experience we have had at any restaurant in a very long time. The executive chef came out and chatted with us before we ordered and was so genuine in wanting the best for each customer. He recommended a few things and of course they were amazing. The back patio had the most amazing ambiance with the fire/heat lamps and blankets if you needed them. I wish I was not from Ohio or I would make this one of my regular spots.

Sandfish is one of the best restaurants I've ever visited. Everything we had was outstanding. The Executive Chef came out to the patio often to converse with all the guests. And after we finished our salmon crudo and told him we loved it, he sent us a tuna crudo (which was even better) on the house. My new favorite restaurant, we will be back!

This chef own restaurant offers a delicious variety of sushis and sashimis, fresh, and with delicate sauces that create a well balanced flavors. The sushi rice was cooked to perfection, which allowed to eat you nigiri without making a mess. I definitely recommend this restaurant.

My experience at Sandfish was absolutely exceptional! Executive chef Eddie came out personally to introduce himself and recommend dishes my girlfriend and I. I’ve never experienced that in my entire life and thought that was unique and cool. Our host, Katy S. Was very pleasant, friendly, and accommodating the entire night. She was exceptional as well! The atmosphere in setting outside on the back patio was beyond words. A calm, romantic and relaxing, setting with great majestic casual music. The food was mind blowing 🤯 the best sushi I’ve had and some dishes that I’ve never even tried that were fantastic. I highly recommend checking this place out. You will not be disappointed. Thank you again for the incredible experience. I will definitely be back. Much love , Jeff
