10 stars!!! Tom's is astonishing because in one super clean, super well-stocked store, I was able to find many of my personal favorites thoughtfully curated as if just for me! And I'm a very picky shopper. Shelves are a work of art -- really terrific hard-to-find, high quality ingredients. Now let's talk about the big selection of fish, shellfish, caviar, etc. there's a lot to choose from, so take your time. I picked up bonito flakes, furikake, lemons, a chunk of smoked salmon (not lox, the real kind), some sauces and a handful of fig truffles for Mother's Day. Wow! Check out their FB page, their reels are clever with hilarious dad puns and sight gags. everyone deserves fabulous fresh fish and everyone should know about Tom's Seafood. Chef's kiss, Mmmmwah! Update 02.14.2025: I shopped at Tom's today for some Galentine's Day sashimi + got the toro - omg!💕 and they even have some lovely long-stemmed chocolate covered strawberries for us tonight. These guys are great, so thoughtful and stuff. Really made my day that I made the decision to go directly to Tom's for some high-grade sashimi instead of trying to find this incredible pink ruby gem anywhere else and end up paying three times as much plus tip. You have been instructed by the master Go forth grasshoppers and buy your sashimi...

Maggie was behind the counter, friendly and helpful as I browsed all the varied items on their shelves then made it to the fresh seafood cooler - impressive, beautiful and fresh slabs of fish there.
This will be our 'go to' for fresh seafood going forward, replacing Whole Foods, I'd much rather shop at a small locally owned business plus, their seafood, seasonings and other products are really the best and one of a kind.
I bought a pound of sushi grade tuna (and it is delicious, sliced some up the minute I got home) and other foods and seasonings that I've yet to dig into.
What a great find. Now in combination with Edwards Meats on 44th, I have my two primo suppliers for fine...
Read moreI discovered this place 10 minutes before closing time and I live 30 min away. But the lady on the phone was so sweet and said she needs time to close up anyway so I can come by and she'll have my order ready. I rushed over and she even gave me time to look at some of their other stuff. I was able to pick up everything at once - wasabi, soy sauce, rice, etc. She never rushed me and was very friendly. The prices were super reasonable as well.
I was a little bit nervous upon hearing that the sushi-grade salmon was not flash frozen (I thought that was a must) but she took the time to explain that because it was farmed salmon raised without any growth hormones and chemicals, and fed pasteurized foods, it's safe to eat raw. I appreciated...
