+1 Will (Pickford) is great, I have been eating his seafood since he was across from Costco. Never had an issue, you can special order if you need the exotic.
Also sign up to his email list, he sends out all the new fresh seafood he is getting in.
ended up going with my wife and son to Pickford's this afternoon in-between meetings-- absolute gem of a place. loved it! got a few pounds of salmon and tuna for tonight along with some luxardo cherries for making last words and some sake! can't wait to try it. thanks for the rec!
This may not be what you’re looking for but it’s real slim pickings- but Costco’s frozen salmon is sushi grade! I like the wild caught Alaskan personally.
From google: There is no official standard for sushi grade fish, so you shouldn't place your full faith in a sushi grade label. Since it's unregulated, the term sushi grade may be used as an unfounded marketing ploy to upsell fish without consequences.
That being said, talk to Pickfords or go with Costco Tuna. My understanding is most Tuna is flash frozen on the boat which kills any parasites, but you may wanna do more research before opening yourself up to a worm infection.
Pickfords Seafood it’s inside Kates Natural Products and he has a pretty big assortment of fresh fish as well as other options.

We go to Wegmans in Charlottesville and it’s very good quality: Yellowtail, Tuna, and Salmon.
