Description
 

NEW SUPPLIER—WE GUARANTEE THIS IS THE BEST SAKU WE HAVE EVER OFFERED!

We carry frozen sushi grade yellow fin tuna, known as saku tuna, which is commonly used as maguro in sushi bars. It is boneless, skinless, frozen vacuum packed yellowfin tuna that has been cold smoked (processed with filtered wood smoke) to keep its red color.

Yellow fin tuna (Thunnus albacares) are found all over the world, usually in deeper offshore waters. They can get as long as 6 feet and weigh as much as 300 pounds but the average weight is 60 to 100 pounds. Pieces range from 12-14ozs

Used to be MUCH better October 28, 2011
Reviewer: mark from San Diego, CA United States  
Label on the blocks used to say Hilo, HI and had MUCH better flavor & texture.

Latest blocks say from Hayward, CA and had weak/no flavor. A few blocks also had odd texture & contained white 'fibers' that didn't led itself well to sashimi/sushi when cut (or eaten)

Probably should have saved the packaging since they say "guaranteed" best, but I didn't - I'm bummed

Not as good as it used to be... September 12, 2011
Reviewer: Carlos from Columbia, MO United States  
New review:  I am very disappointed with this product lately (last 2 orders).  It is very "watery", not a lot of taste and texture is not very good.  Compare with my old review (more than 1 year ago) below.

Old review (I do not think it is accurate anymore):  Excellent quality, comes already in rectangular shape which makes it VERY easy to cut into sushi/sashimi pieces with no waste at all.  Very good and tasty.

I am back August 12, 2011
Reviewer: tina miller from bernville, PA United States  
I decided to try sushifishmarket.com because the prices were a little less and they offered Fedex Ground with a guarantee on the fish. Big mistake. My order from them arrived thawed and I had to cook the whole lot. So I complained and they gave me 50% off. I ordered again and all fish was frozen but 2lbs of Albacore Tuna. My menu for the night did not call for that so I had to cook it and refreeze. Then I ordered 5-1lb pieces of sushi tuna and got 4 pieces of varying lbs to make up to the 5lbs. Well this screwed up my menu. There are only 2 of us in my household and we are doing portion control and created our own NutriSystems diet and by sushifishmarket.com assuming they totally messed my menu up. So I complained again and just said you know I am going back to catalina.op. I have been a customer for over 4yrs now and anytime I have ordered my fish is how I ordered it as well as arrives frozen. I will pay a little more to get what I want.

Almost excellent January 4, 2011
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Winchester, CA United States  
I would give it an excellent if I was going on most of what I receive; however, I have on occasion received small blocks full of white fibrous tissue where over 1/3 of the product is non-edible unless you cook it and use it in a sandwich.  I think these types of blocks ( the smaller, fibrous ones, should not be slod as sushi/sashimi quality.   Overall I love it though.
