It doesn’t say it anywhere. But I bought it from asian market in refrigerated section. It does have a soy sauce packet so that makes me think it is.. but it just doesn’t say it.
In fact, I don’t think that’s even bluefin. The color is all wrong.
To me, that looks like big eye or yellow fin.
That is sketch AF. Would not buy. Would not visit again.
I love 99 ranch. I go to the one in Irvine it has such a good selection.
It is fine. The sell by date is less than 2 weeks and the usage of the cut labeled Toro implies sushi grade. If you are worried use a cold water wash with maybe a little salt to wash off the top film and then taste a slice. If not dear it and make the inside very rare. It should be fine

Yes, this is for raw consumption.
Yup safe
Did they really put one packet of soy sauce with a 1/2 lb of uncut fish? That’s funny…
Yeah but that color and flesh isn’t high quality oh toro
Toro is pink with veins of fat running through it. That is shit tuna as far as I’m concerned.
Looks like so, that being said, I wouldn’t get sashimi from a place such as 99 ranch😰
This is not O Toro.
To add – typical O Toro (not even pacific bluefin) is $100/lb. It’s also a completely different colour.
That may be blue fin, but it sure as shit isn’t ootoro
Where is the fat and marbling?
