The sashimi is very fresh, you can try it.

I marinated it and made an avocado and tuna rice bowl. There were no tough or sinewy parts, and it wasn't fishy at all; it was delicious. I would definitely like to order it again!
Ray
It was a beautiful red meat fillet. I cut it into cubes and marinated it (poke style), and it was delicious. I will definitely order it again.

Good size. Came frozen as I hoped it would. Haven’t tried it yet, but it looks good.

Love making poke bowls with this!
klee
I made raw fish rice bowls. What you see in the picture is half of the package, and since it is frozen neatly in a single layer, it is easy to divide and store. It was fresh and delicious! I used half to make a single serving of rice bowl, and there was a bit too much fish—I think one purchase would be enough for up to three servings. I liked it so much that I think I will buy it again next time.

I will be making tuna poke with this , a family favorite. Very convenient and arrived frozen.

Love sashimi, so simple but delicious
piombinojoseph
It was a huge chunk weighing 940g! I partially thawed it enough to cut through with a knife, cut it in half, and froze the rest. It had no unpleasant smell and tasted delicious.

It's very large. I had it as sashimi with ponzu sauce. It was very tasty and fresh, not fishy at all.

Repeated for the second time! It's so creamy!
Keiko
I bought it to make poke, and it was all gone in one meal. I'm quite thin, which is okay. The main problem is that I can't find any other food that can be eaten raw.
