Fighting Fish Scott’s Addition

Looks like a swanky little place. The staff was down to earth and really great with suggestions on food and drinks. I had to navigate some allergy issues, but that was easy when talking it out with the waitress.Prices were on par for sushi, not as expensive as the place looks like it would be. We were there for the sushi. The menu has other alternatives. You are looking at 10 to 20 dollars for most appetizers and entrées with a few falling outside either end of that range.Decor was simple, clean, and pretty cool with good lighting. Tables are smaller, would be better for smaller groups of four or couples, but I am sure they can accommodate for larger groups.There was a well stocked bar. However, I wasn't able to explore it in as much depth as I would have liked to on this visit. Saki was their spirit of choice or specialty. They offered it hot or cold, by the shot or by the glass.Parking was easily found on the main street. We parked a block away from the intersection that the restaurant is near. Seemed safe, and nothing was to worry about. There were people out walking around late evening. Even with a basball game playing in the stadium down the road, the traffic wasn't too bad in the area.Parking: Unmetered spots on the streetsDietary restrictions: Had several menu items that did not have shellfish and were made without wheat or malt (gluten-free).

We got here without a reservation on a Friday night. We recommend a reservation. We got here at about 6pm and put our name on the list and was told 45 minutes and if we wanted we can sit at the bar for service if there are free seats. I gave her my name and phone number twice and watch her write it down. She said she call or text. We went down the streets for a drink and at about 40 minutes went by and we walked back. She looked startled when we walked in and it was less busy then before. I asked if there was availability and she said um I tried to call you guys but there was no answer. I never got a call or text, and all the tables empty were reserved. We sat at the bar since that freed up and placed an order. The bar tender was great and the wife appreciated the NA bar options. We got edamame and two rolls. The edamame was a small bowl and not enough salt really but the sushi was pretty good. Took a while to come out, but it was enjoyable. I don 't like cucumber or avacado in my sushi and 90% of the sushi on the menu had those. FYI. Other down side is if you like your miso soup, which comes with sushi, is in the bottom 3 miso soups I have had. Surprisingly, Sushi King has better miso soup. All and all ok experience, but there are so many other sushi places in town may not go back.

Fighting fish is awesome best sushi in richmond, our new to go. It also has a well thought out bar cocktail menu. Just got the Elder millennial and was fabulous, but every cocktail I’ve done there is art. The flaming tuna nachos are probably my current favorite substance. A bit spicy, lots of tuna, tomato and roe just awesome combo. Service is fast, friendly to call ahead. Just a great place.

This might be a very unfound gem of a Sushi joint in Richmond. I must have driven by them 100's of time and never knew they were a restaurant. Looks more like an old warehouse, but find some parking on Boulevard and try this place out. They have Fantastic Sushi! Once you walk in, it's a totally different vibe than their outside appearance. We sat at the bar and the bartender was great. It took a little while for our food to come, but they a couple of large tables in front of us. We'll worth the wait though. Nice, large rolls. Very fresh and tasty. We will definitely be back!

Don’t judge a restaurant by its cover. I must admit when I was driving to find parking (while looking for the restaurant) I didn’t see anything that stood out like eat here. Until, I walked in and was impressedThe waiter/ bartender was very helpful and friendly. For my meal I had the salmon wontons and the soft shell crab sushi, I recommend this place!
