"If you’re going to name yourself after 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, their nigiri and sashimi are worth your time. It’s a good option in Noble Square for sushi, and a trip there is cheaper than a flight to Tokyo." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor
"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
"A bustling hub for Japan’s seafood culture, this market offers narrow lanes lined with sushi stalls and master chefs at work, ideal for watching skilled preparation up close. Standout experiences include a nine-seat sushi restaurant worth queuing for and stalls renowned for exemplary sushi rice, making it a must-visit for serious seafood and sushi lovers." - Stacey Leasca
"Early in his career in Tokyo, Yasuhiro worked as a truck driver for the famed Tsukiji Fish Market." - Nadia Chaudhury
