Description
Each year, as June arrives, we eagerly anticipate the opening of the Bluefin Tuna season. This is when our boats head out to the open ocean, returning to our wharf on Commercial Street with magnificent, wild-caught Bluefin. The season continues through December, but a special time for us—and for discerning chefs—is when autumn begins.
As the fish fatten up for the winter migration, they develop the highly prized, buttery belly meat known as toro. This is the moment sushi chefs live for. Its rich flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture make it an unparalleled delicacy, sought after by the world's most elite sushi restaurants.
Our wild Bluefin is a seasonal star, celebrated for its robust flavor, firm texture, and vibrant color. This is not just any tuna; it is a culinary masterpiece, a testament to the pristine waters it calls home. Don't miss the opportunity to feature this seasonal treasure. Our wild Bluefin Tuna is a truly special item, perfect for elevating your menu and delighting your guests with the very best the ocean has to offer.

Tuna was partially thawed. Worrisome. Had a smell. Especially to have to purchase such a large quantity. Ice packs thawed.
The Bluefin is always fresh and delicious for steaks and sushi. Never disappointed.
Ordered this before from Intershell and it was good. This order was very fibrous. Could not use it for sashimi. Intershell refunded promptly. Will try the toro next time.
