How NYC’s Best Tuna Supplier Yama Seafood Deals to Michelin-Starred Restaurants | Eater

"Serving many of New York City's two- and three-star Michelin restaurants, this Jersey City–based seafood vendor, led by director Nobu Yamanashi, specializes in top-grade albacore, bigeye, yellowfin, and bluefin tuna. Operations start at 3 a.m., when the team readies hauls for delivery by inspecting incoming fish, running them through scaling machines, and butchering and packaging customer-specified premium cuts — often including 400–500 pound bluefin imported from Spain. Yamanashi stresses that tuna is very difficult, since every fish differs in color, texture, and fat content, so the crew will keep cutting until they find the right sections; quality is prioritized above all. The business follows principles set by founder Kingo Yamanashi over 40 years ago — honesty, hard work, and simple courtesies — which has produced a loyal workforce that often stays for decades." - Terri Ciccone

delivery and packaging were perfect, products were delicious. the quail eggs all arrived intact because of the excellent packaging. Radish sprouts were a little slimy, perhaps something so delicate isn't meant to be shipped near dry ice? The prices are very reasonable for the products. The salmon and negitoro were to die for- equally good raw and torched.

Ordered for valentines day to prepare an omakase style dinner for my wife did not disappoint at all. Customer service well very responsive and friendly. My order was on time and neatly packed so frozen uni was still very fresh I will order again. Highly recommend! Here's a few pics aside from the omakase we did

A Gem for Home Cooks! Best fish for sushi I found in NYC and NJ. I was very surprised by the quality given that it was frozen. The Bluefin kama toro was the bomb and it was a feast for two for a weekend.

I ordered online for frozen tuna, salmon, ikura, caviar, and uni. I received the products are good condition in frozen form and fresh uni. Each products are packed well with dry ice and multiple solid ice packs came with next day delivery to door service. Definitely will repeat the online order with this company.

Super amazing! I’m so glad I found Yama Seafood. The price and the quality are the best. I received my first order the yesterday and saw the items were packed really well. I was so impressed and happy that I placed another order right away.

Great selection of authentic Japanese products. Of course, Yama Seafood prides itself on its fine fish, uni/sea urchins (when in season), both Japanese and Russian, superb cuts of lean, medium, and fatty tuna, excellent Ikura, many a kind of Tobico, lobster tails of very impressive size, Arctic surf clams, cuttlefish, numerous varieties of shrimp, and sashimi-grade scallops (hotate), but also Japanese specialities such as tamago (cooked egg), premium sushi nori (seaweed), sushi rice, brown rice tea or Japanese sparkling water are equally offered. Lightning fast home delivery, efficient communication and pleasing pricing made us - immediately - decide on a repeated purchase, very soon.

Made an order for a birthday party. Packaging is perfect, I had an email notification to track and a ETA that was accurate. Everything was individually wrapped and the ice packs were frozen solid. Multiple layers of insulation from the box itself to the fish. Customer service was also above and beyond. I had made a small mistake in my order and they were highly responsive and quick to resolve. I appreciate how communicative and knowledgeable they were. Many thanks again. The uni I ordered was fantastic, couldn't help but sneak a few pieces as I opened the package. Debated if I should have kept it all to myself or share... Will order again and highly, highly recommend.

I ordered from Yama Seafood, and while the package arrived on time and was well-packed, one item's vacuum seal broke due to another item's sharp edges pressing against it. Customer service never responded when I inquired about it via their website chat. Additionally, the ready-to-serve saba I ordered was not the brand advertised — it was a bait-and-switch with something of lesser quality. Worse yet, three of those saba were infested with parasites and had to be discarded. I also ordered "Salmon Sashimi Ready," which was not fresh, with the meat falling apart. Overall, a disappointing experience.

Got word of this place when dining at Sushi Nakazawa. So we decided to order some Hokkaido Uni and tuna spinal jelly for a dinner we were hosting. Must say that the uni was one of the best I've had with some sushi rice and tare. There are limited days food can get delivered but were delivered on time. The driver themselves called me to make sure how to drop off the package at the apartment I was at which is much appreciated. 5/5 would def order more from here in the future

Yama Seafood is always posting beautiful photos on Instagram, tempting me to buy their products every single day. I couldn't resist. I placed an order on the Hokkaido Uni (100g) for $60 and Miyabi Premium Sushi Nori Seaweed (10 sheets/pk) for $11.95 last night (Thursday night), and I received my delivery the next day in the afternoon. It was amazing! Luis delivered to my door! This tray of Hokkaido Uni was absolutely out of this world! I eat a lot of uni but I don't remember ever having something like this before. It was sweet and fresh and friggen delicious! I want to order 2 more trays right now just thinking about it! $60 for this much Hokkaido uni is absolutely great value. I remember back in 2016, restaurants would sell a tray of Hokkaido Uni just like this one for $90. And if you order one uni sashimi or uni nigiri in a restaurant it's easily $20. Man, I need to order two more trays now! The Miyabi Premium Sushi Nori Seaweed was alright, nothing I can't pick up from a local supermarket for less; I thought it was something special when I bought it but it was very meh. Previously, I've purchased two trays of West Coast Uni (100g) Grade B for $25 each from their website and it had a really strong smell. Hokkaido Uni is so much tastier.

I didn't know you could order online from this supplier, but decided to try it out since a lot of restaurants are closed due to Covid. I have to say that the sushi kit I got had better quality fish than any other sushi joint in town. I'm going to continue ordering fish from here as long as they have their online ordering system; tuna was melt-in-your-mouth delicious and extremely fresh! Delivery came on time and everything was packaged neatly.

Super frozen Chu Toro Medium Fatty Tuna from Spain was grayish after defrosting. Very disappointing.
