THE TRUST ME FORMAT

Hand rolls arrive after sashimi and nigiri

A SUGARFISH meal is built as a sequence, not a menu of individual rolls. The set menus are designed as a progression from sashimi to nigiri to hand rolls, so each part of the meal arrives when its temperature and texture are right. The result is a different kind of hand roll experience: one prepared as part of the meal rather than a hand-roll-only order.

The four menus offer different amounts of sushi

The four Trust Me menus give diners a straightforward place to start. Each includes a different selection and amount of sushi, while keeping the same sashimi-to-hand-roll rhythm.

The nori stays crisp when eaten right away

Hand rolls are folded to order and served at the end of the progression. Enjoying one as it arrives keeps the nori crisp and the rice warm.

SUGARFISH makes no substitutions

SUGARFISH prepares and seasons its food in the Nozawa style, with no substitutions. Tell the team about food allergies before you order.

CURRENT MENU PRICES

The four menu prices start at $28 before the 16% fee

The current Trust Me options run from $28 to $60 before the listed 16% fee, which is not a gratuity or tip. The menu price covers a complete sequence rather than a set of hand rolls alone. See the current SUGARFISH menu for selections and availability, which can vary by location.

For a closer look at what each menu includes, the SUGARFISH prices and Trust Me menus page lays out all four options in one place. The strongest choice depends on appetite, not on choosing individual courses one by one.

THE NOZAWA APPROACH

Warm rice and fish cut to order set the pace

Chef Kazunori Nozawa has spent 50 years focused on sushi. At SUGARFISH, rice is served warm and loosely packed, fish is cut to order, and every piece is sent out to be eaten when it arrives. The hand roll matters because it completes that timing, with the nori still crisp around the filling.

For the detail behind the format, read the SUGARFISH approach to food. It explains why the menu stays focused and why the best moment for a hand roll is the moment it is served.
