What They Offer
The menu at Fish Face covers a wide range of Japanese and Asian-inspired dishes. Sushi options include nigiri, sashimi, maki rolls, and over a dozen specialty rolls such as the Volcano Roll (shrimp tempura and spicy tuna topped with crunch), the Golden Bagel Roll (deep-fried salmon and cream cheese with eel sauce), and the Rainbow Roll. Beyond sushi, the kitchen turns out ramen bowls in chicken, pork, beef, pork belly, and vegetable variations, each served with bok choy, bean sprouts, sweet corn, and egg. A full pho section offers rice-noodle soups with options like brisket, eye-round steak, and shrimp.
Rice bowls and teriyaki plates round out the hot-food side of the menu, while a Chef's Special Dim Sum section features pork soup dumplings, crabmeat soup dumplings, and pork belly steam buns. The drink menu includes a substantial bubble tea program with milk teas, fruit slushes, and specialty drinks like the Flaming Brown Sugar Tapioca and Oreo Crème Brûlée milk tea.
Known For
Fish Face has built its identity around a combination of fresh sushi preparations and hearty noodle soups served under one roof. The specialty cooked rolls — particularly the deep-fried options like the Deep Sea Roll and Da Bomb Roll — set the menu apart from more traditional sushi counters in the Rochester area. The restaurant's bubble tea selection, with close to twenty varieties between milk teas and slushes, adds an uncommon pairing to the Japanese dining format.
