My understanding is that all fish served raw in the US has to be frozen first. So that's what you get at sushi bars.

might be sacrilege to ask, but, could I use frozen?

frozen is absolutely fine,
there is previously not frozen fish and previously frozen fish in the US. Any good Japanese sushi bar uses fresh, not previously frozen fish.
