Low quality fish and very bad costumer service as they would get your order wrong many times including making you pay full price for it.

I was disappointed twice already. First order -Sashimi grade Squid and Hamachi. They were so old and smelly that I couldn't eat them as sashimi. Second order- I ordered Hamachi steaks, but received California Yellow Tail fillets that doesn't look anything like Hamachi steaks they showed on photo on line. They changed name to "True Fish".

I ordered Sashimi Plate Special, Salmon roe, and sea urchin. All of them were very fresh and delicious.

Given some of the very negative reviews over the ordering and delivery process, I was a bit worried and thought/researched quite a bit before placing my online order. My experience was great throughout the entire process, from placing the online order, receiving confirmation, delivery and quality of the products. The only bummer was they were out of uni which was the single main product I really wanted to get. That's not their fault though. I'll just have to try some other time. My delivery arrived in the afternoon in perfect condition. As you can see from the photos, they were packaged very well with plenty of ice and great insulation to keep the products cold and fresh. I ordered Hokkaido Scallops (Frozen, 41/50 per pack) 2.20lb, Mongo Ika/Prepared Cuttlefish (Frozen, 16-18 pcs), New Zealand Wild Greenshell Mussels (Frozen, 1/2 Shell): 2.00lb,Tobiko orange(Frozen, 1.1 lb Pack). Everything I had was top quality and met my expectations. I would totally order from them again. For all seafood lovers, check them out for a seafood party at the comfort of your home!

The sashimi combo order I received and the order my friend received on the SAME day looked completely DIFFERENT. His looked fresh and of good quality and size. Mine looked small and unfresh. The tuna was 2 end pieces cut to make the 1/2 pound weight and because of that, full of sinew. The hamachi and salmon items were average quality. First time ordering, and will be the last.

-Ahi Tuna Poke Cube: 6/10. Wish it came marinated. -Pastuerized Lump Crab Meat: 7/10. -Local Black Cod/Sablefish Fillet: 10/10. Very soft and buttery. We broiled it with a Miso marinade and it was amazing. -Tobiko YUZU: 10/10. Unique flavor; could eat this everyday. -Sushi Ebi (shrimp): 6/10. Butterfly cooked shrimp. -Unagi Kabayaki/Grilled Eel: 9/10. The sauce is perfectly balanced; not too sweet. You also get a big piece of eel. -Umimasu Shioyaki Salted Trout: 8/10. Nice fatty fish; looks like a thin salmon. We marinated it with Miso and baked it. -MISO Saba/Mackerel: 9/10. -MIRIN Saba/Mackerel: 10/10. Liked it more than the Miso Saba -Shime Saba/Vinegar Cured Mackerel: 9/10. Wow, tastes like sushi quality. No need to reheat, just eat after defrosted.

Typically good quality fish except my last delivery, I got 2 pound tuna but one pound was bad / old / not fresh and the fish has already changed color - that piece of fish should never have been delivered- I threw it out ... $25 worth of fish went from the delivery box into the trash. The other piece was nice and the 4 pounds of salmon was nice

One star for the fire that occurred at the pier. Five stars for opening to the public and delivering during sheltering place! I wouldn't have stumbled on this place had it not been for my hangry desire for deliciously fresh sushi. Not too many places are open in my area for Japanese and if they are, I'm just too damn lazy these days to get my butt in a car to drive there. The website is super simple and easy. Best part is you place your order the day before. BAM the next day a friendly delivery guy leaves your precious loot at your door while he's safely walking away from your house. I ordered salmon kama, kanpachi fillet, sea bass fillet and day boat scallops. It was all packed in a cooler as if you were picking it up from a fisherman. They were sashimi graded and needed to be sliced and devoured. I grilled the kamas and all of these was tasty and fresh! I loved the convenience of fresh fish delivered to my door. This is how I'm making the best of my SIP. Discovering the unknown options I wasn't aware of.

ABS Seafood has the best sashimi grade fish in the Bay Area! They recently upgraded their online shopping experience and now it is even easier to shop on their site. So far we have ordered all of their salmon offerings (Ora King, Steelhead, Atlantic and Wild Isles) and the quality is superb. The fish is very fatty and juicy, perfect for pan frying with some butter. I have also been making nigiri and sushi rolls with the fish and I really hope they continue to sell directly to consumers after the SIP is over. Their Alaskan halibut is very soft, buttery and flaky and I really enjoyed the Petra Sole. We have never had any issues with delivery and luckily ABS is able to deliver all the way to San Jose. The fish comes in a cardboard box with dry ice inside so you don't have to worry about it going bad. Thank you ABS Seafood, you guys rock!

One of the few great things to come out of this whole covid craziness is ABS selling to consumers. All of the sashimi grade items ive had were all incredibly fresh. Customer service is knowledgeable about their products and answered all my preparation questions. They also refunded me when they made a pricing error even when i told them it was not necessary. Their hokkaido scallops are amazing; better than my local goto sushi restaurant. Im writing this review in hopes that they continue to sell to consumers after the covid craziness gets back to normal cuz i need my scallops.
An actual god-send during the stay at home order! My family's favorite meal is sushi or poke, so we've been craving raw fish, hardcore. With all the sushi and poke places closed, we thought we'd have to wait until SIP was over to enjoy our favorite food once more. Thankfully, we were introduced to ABS Seafood. They normally only supply restaurants, but with SIP, they've extended their clientele to include individuals. My family has been ordering tuna, salmon, and shrimp from them every two weeks. Their quality exceeds five stars. The tuna and salmon melt in your mouth, and the shrimp is tender and juicy. We also tried the black cod one time, and it was wonderful!!! Sadly, Pier 45 (where ABS is located) just experienced a fire, so I'm not sure how that will affect their product. Hoping and praying that their facility is ok and that no one was hurt in the fire.

My wife's coworker highly recommended this place because of the fresh seafood and she has been craving Sashimi so I thought why not, let's give it a try. We ordered on Friday and in the morning, we saw our order has been prepared so we were eager to wait for the food by dinner time. Dinner came and went, nothing, not a phone call to explain. We contacted them asking for a refund because we don't want "fresh" seafood that has been sitting out for a whole day. Sunday came, a guy whose name is John Ellis called and said hey, I delivered your stuff to a wrong address, if you wanted it, go to that address and get it. He said he left the seafood on the front porch. I told him my car is in the shop and I couldn't go there to get it. Plus, I'm not going to randomly go to someone's front porch and get stuff from there. This is what he said "well too bad, if you want it you know where it is". Great service! 5 stars! Can't wait to NEVER hear from you again.

What fresh excellent quality fish! So glad they opened up to consumers during these crazy shelter in place times. We got the big eye tuna, albacore tuna, ogo, shrimp, & squid. The tunas were amazing. I made some of it into poke with the ogo and my son says it taste just like the ocean, so fresh. Can't wait to make the shrimp & squid this weekend.

We are so lucky to have been introduced to ABS during this shelter in place period, it's been one of the bright spots for us! Fish is of unbelievable quality, as other reviewers state below it's not often you get restaurant-quality fish at these prices. Also a special shout out for their customer service - super friendly and helpful every single time!

If you are wondering whether their fish is truly sashimi quality, IT IS!! I was a bit hesitant - I'm a lucky duck who has been to Tsukiji Fish Market in Japan which has spoiled me (will no longer eat second rate fish). All 4 fish that I bought were truly superb - fresh and flavorful, not even a hint of fishiness. Like eating at your favorite sushi restaurant, only you get lots of pieces instead of just 2. A dream come true for a sashimi lover. Try it, you will not regret it!!!
