Only on St Thomas will you find Japan located directly between Italy and Mexico
RAW is excited to bring to you the freshest, most creative sushi and sake selections on
St Thomas!! The vibe is fun, hip and playful. The scene is sleek, modern and sophisticated.
Sushi should be a social event — the best way to experience all of the amazing flavors and
textures available is to order a variety of items and share them around the table. To ensure
that you are enjoying our sushi at the peak of freshness, we will deliver your selections as they
are created and place them in the middle of the table to be shared. If you have a specific
request in how you would like your food to be delivered, please let us know.
In order to achieve the perfect balance of flavor and visual appeal, every roll is carefully crafted to order. Our “hand picked” team of sushi chefs have created a menu of both traditional sushi standards and unique specialty rolls that celebrate the diverse cultures of the Caribbean.
For both our traditional and specialty offerings, we source fresh fish, fruits and vegetables
from throughout the Caribbean.
Our offerings of Sashimi, Nigiri, Chirashi and Maki Rolls are simple and classic — the traditional condiments of soy sauce, wasabi and pickled ginger are the perfect accompaniment to
the fresh, clean flavors found here.
Just because something is so steeped in tradition, doesn’t mean we can’t have fun!! When it
comes to our specialty rolls, we take a more light hearted approach. You will find that the
names of our rolls reflect some of the “eccentricities” that make our island special. The flavors
and textures you will find in our specialties are perfectly balanced — from the freshness of the
seafood, to the seasoning of the rice, to the precise knife-work on the vegetables, to the sauces and glazes ranging from subtle to vibrant — each bite is a feast for the eyes as much as it is
for the tongue. These flavors are designed to stand on their own without the addition of soy
sauce, wasabi or pickled ginger.
We ask for your patience and understanding that the “art” of sushi takes time … so sit back,
relax, have a sake-bomb and enjoy the show!!
Kampai!!
