Master Critic Review
SUGARFISH | Williamsburg
8.1
The Williamsburg outpost of Sugarfish brings the Nozawa Group’s set-menu sushi to Wythe Avenue, with warm rice, carefully cut fish, and a strict progression of nigiri and hand rolls. It’s a straightforward, no-tipping operation built for consistent quality rather than ceremony, especially if you order one of the Trust Me boxes.
