    Celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary and it was exceptional! Food is always delicious and beautifully presented. Nice casual environment. Great service. The ube cake for dessert - I’ll go back just for that! The cocktails and wine all excellent. Loved it!

    Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Music was a little too loud for the small indoor space. Overall it was a 5-star experience.

    The food and service was absolutely amazing. We are from Yuma and never get to downtown Phoenix. Sandfish is the new reason we will make it.

    Second time here. First time was incredible, we couldn’t wait to come back. This time, not so much. We initially at a table, but there was a group next to us that were SO loud, we moved to the bar. The bartender is really what made this experience lackluster. He was either having the worst day of his life. Hates his job, or maybe both. I don’t ever want to feel like I’m an inconvenience at a restaurant and that exactly how we felt. Monotone responses, barely any attention, said 2 words when we engaged with him. Maybe that’s his “vibe” but we weren’t feeling it. If I’m spending money on good food I want to at least be treated like a human. Food is great, just don’t sit at the bar. Unfortunately, he waits on some tables too…Until there’s a different bartender, I’ll be avoiding this place.

    The food was outstanding, and our drinks were delicious, the bartender perfectly designing a unique drink based on our whiskey choice. Our waitress was friendly and offered wonderful suggestions. Highly recommend for a special night out
