Reviews
I will say that it’s strange that this place in inside of 88 Market tho, as typically this kind of store would be more of a casual take-out spot, but this is a “we’re going out for a fine dining experience” spot lol.
Unagi don was probably the best I had in recent years. This is miles above the frozen unagi that you can buy from grocery stores. The fish has great texture. The sauce was not overpowering. The rice had little bits of pickled radishes, elevating the whole flavor.
Chirashi was about $10 more expensive, but it had many high quality and expensive fish types. Again the rice had bits of pickled radish.
Salmon krudo was also amazing. Whatever they did in terms of the flavor, they did it right.
But 312 Fishmarket has arguably some of the freshest nigiri I have had in the city albeit the pieces are kinda small but the umami is all there. These 7 pieces was north of $70 (pricey to say the least) and it easily could have been twice that!! Included is market price A5 wagyu and uni (my fave and not your run-of-the mill sushi joints serve nor AYCEs carry this).
The ambiance is a bit out of sorts tucked in a food court and their main thoroughfare goes to the public washroom, so it gets lotsa foot traffic and can get cramped!
Nonetheless, wonderful nigiri!
Are their fancier places that have twice the menus size, yes absolutely. However if you are looking for a spot that is consistent and genuinely good tasting clean sushi, 312 is the best spot you can hit up. Not to mention the benefit of being able to shop right after.
Would not order from here again with so many other options in the area.
They gave me packs of soy sauce that were already expired 5 months ago.
I know soy sauce doesn’t go bad easily, so I could understand if it was just a few days past the date — but five months is a bit much.
This place has been one of my favorite to-go restaurants, but now I’m really concerned about the freshness of their food. We have no way of knowing where else they might be using expired products.
