    I'd get sashimi if it wasn't so much more expensive than the rolls. I typically get a basic roll like california or tuna, and then one of the ones with more calories (typically one with eel and eel sauce).

    You can eat as low cal or as high as you want with sushi, depending on what kind. Sashimi is your best bet- pure protein and you can eat loads of it for few calories (like 30-40 calories per piece).

    As far as rolls go, obviously stay away from anything tempura, "crispy", or fried.
    Spicy tuna rolls have a mayo based condiment (the spicy part) that adds calories fast.
    Eel also is in a sauce that adds on the calories.
    Avocado in rolls is delicious and healthy fat, so if you can spare the calories, enjoy!
    Generally any crazy roll with sauces and whatnot will jack up the calories.

    A plain tuna roll is a good choice (less than 200 calories for a whole roll). Salmon is higher calorie but again, a healthy fat so a good choice if you can spare the calories.

    This is excellent advice.

    I generally try to save up some calories so I can have a Spicy Tuna Roll and 5 pieces of sushi (nigiri-style). The Nigiri pieces can be as low as 50 calories a piece to 100 depending on the toppings and the size. I generally stick with things like Salmon, Tuna, mackerel, shrimp, etc. I little squid and seaweed salad doesn't hurt either! This dinner will usually cost me about 600 calories.
