"Tsukiji Market remains a major tourist destination with restaurant supply stores, retail outlets, restaurants, and snack stalls. It is known for its vibrant streets filled with mouth-watering snacks and professional-use shops selling quality Japanese ingredients." - Kyoko Nakayama
"If you’re going to have the same name as the famous Tokyo fish market, then you’d better have some pretty good sushi. And while Tsukiji (the restaurant) isn’t serving million-dollar tuna that’s been auctioned off in Japan, the nigiri and sashimi here are worth checking out. The relaxed dining space is good for a casual date night, but there's also room at the bar for a solo sushi excursion. It’s a good option in Noble Square for sushi, and an Uber there is cheaper than a flight to Tokyo." - Sam Faye
"Toyosu Market The Toyosu Market (formerly the inner market at Tsukiji) is the world's largest wholesale seafood market, with more than 2,000 tons of seafood moving through it daily. At its new (and far more modern) location, there's also a separate building for produce. Watch the bidding for tuna and other seafood from the connected viewing walkways that overlook both markets. If you want to see the tuna bidding action (and, yes, you do), get up early for a spot at the tuna auction observation deck, where the action kicks off at 5:30 am.Avoid the sushiya here, as many are overpriced and touristy. But do visit Uogashi Yokocho Market, with more than 70 specialty food and kitchenware shops. After you finish shopping, head to the rooftop garden for a stellar view of Tokyo Bay."
