The omakase box came with 6 bream… and one mackerel. All of which are cheaper fish with little to no flavor diversity. Quite disappointing

Dear Eric,
Thank you for your honest feedback, and we’re sorry the Omakase Toyosu Fish Box did not meet your expectations.
Our Omakase selections are based on seasonal availability and the freshness quality from Toyosu Market, so the variety can change from week to week. We understand that receiving multiple bream with limited diversity was disappointing for your experience.
We truly appreciate your feedback, and for future orders, we’re always happy to accommodate special requests whenever possible, including preferences on specific fish varieties.
Thank you again for giving us a try and for helping us improve.
Best Regards,
Yama Seafood Team
Very professional.
Haven't had the chance to taste yet, but the delivery was on the exact day selected and everything was still frozen solid despite being shipped halfway across the country. Excellent work.

The ingredients are consistently good as always. However, 5 bags of salmon had broken vacuum seals. Although it doesn’t affect immediate use, it cannot be stored long-term. The quality of the vacuum packaging seems worse than before.

Thank you very much for your feedback and for your continued support.
We’re glad to hear that you’re happy with the quality of the ingredients. At the same time, we truly appreciate you bringing the vacuum seal issue to our attention. We understand how important proper packaging is, especially for longer-term storage.
We are currently working on improving our vacuum packaging by sourcing a new supplier that offers thicker, high-quality, food-grade bags (around 4 mil) to better protect the product during transit and storage.
Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we will continue to improve our packaging to provide a better experience.
Please feel free to reach out to us if anything we can assist you.
Best regards,
Yama Seafood team

Fish was still frozen and was good quality. Japanese style Mackerel is a favorite of ours.

MIXED REVIEW
The Uni was excellent. The Tuna had too much stringy connective tissue to be sold as O-Toro.

Reply from Yama Seafood Inc.
Dear Bryan,
Thank you for your feedback.
We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the Maine Uni.
Regarding the O-toro, some connective tissue can be present due to the rich fat content of the cut, but we understand your concern and will review the quality of the batch you received with our team.
For future orders, you may consider trying our Chu-toro or Hagashi O-toro, which typically have less sinew and a smoother texture.
We appreciate your feedback and look forward to serving you again.
Best Regards,
Yama Seafood Team

First time trying the wild caught
First time trying the wild caught, Big Eye Tuna Belly and it's great - marinated and grilled is the way to go. Tried some raw. as cubed poke, a little too chewy.

I’ve been coming here for a while and the quality is absolutely unmatched. If you are looking for high-quality, sashimi-grade fish, this is the spot. The variety is excellent, and the fish is always incredibly fresh and clean. It’s a great place to pick up everything you need for a high-end sushi night at home. You won't find better quality anywhere else in the area.
