"The news that the famed seafood market was closing in September was shocking, but not surprising on closer examination. Owner Harry Yoshimura told Eater Seattle that COVID-19 aftershocks and labor shortages were making it harder to operate, and recent shootings and other crime in the area made him nervous as well. And at 80, Yoshimura was thinking about retiring anyway. Still, Mutual Fish’s departure is a blow to anyone who needs a good piece of fish." - Harry Cheadle
