Loved it! Super good quality and you get a great amount for the price. The salmon roe is super fresh and perfectly seasoned—tastes just like what you’d get at a great sushi restaurant. Will definitely be ordering again! portioned, and froze.

The portion is generous enough, enough for four meals, haha. Seaweed rice rolls are delicious!

This is how you open. Use the edge of spoon that has the right width. Pretty good quality just a bit too expensive.
First time buying it, it tastes good, but the box is really hard to open.
Great for a cream sauce or just on sushi
Let's drink, let's drink~~
This was delicious but it is pricey
I was surprised at how small it was.
i like the product its just it challenge me to open the tin can
I still don't know how to open it; there's something wrong with the packaging.
Wow! It's so delicious, it bursts with flavor in every bite, I'll definitely buy it again.
First time buying this! It was super hard to open! I finally opened it today and ate it with sea urchin; it was quite delicious.

It was on sale, so I snapped it up right away. I feel like I succeed almost every time with this one lol
Delicious and fresh sea urchin, a must-buy when it's on sale!
It’s very good we love it we kept ordering
Great price. I can’t wait to taste it!
Was hesitant about ordering these but I’m glad I did. The flavor was mildly sweet and not bitter. The texture was firm. Of course this is not as good as the ones you get at the sushi bar. The pieces are smaller. It’s less creamy. But it was still good and you get a lot. I ordered a chirashi bowl from my local place to eat with the uni because I wanted sushi rice. It was so good and was enough for two meals.
I made sea urchin pasta and it was really delicious. The sea urchin was tender and had no fishy smell, so I absolutely loved it.
It exceeded my expectations! Sometimes I feel something sandy when I chew, but it melts in my mouth.
I purchased it on 10/2 ‘26, but it says Packed on 10/16/25.
Order all the time! My hubby loves them! Nice a fresh and great value
The food was delicious, I'll buy it again next time.
