The salmon is NOT GOOD. I don't know if it's just me, or I am not doing it correctly. I made sure the fish was defrosted fully in the fridge, took about 24 hours. It doesn't have the oily shinyness that you will see from a restaurant. The fish was pale, didn't have much texture either. I just sliced it into pieces and didn't cut the ends or shave the surface off. Don't know how.

The Tako however was worth the price. It tasted exactly the same from a sushi joint.

Would I go back? Probably not for salmon, I am going to try other products though. The owner was nice.
Atlantic salmon does not freeze well. The Atlantic salmon that restaurants serve is not frozen.
