About Matsushima Fish Market

A market that gathers the abundant seafood catches from the Sanriku region.


Details

Located near Matsushima Coast along National Route 45, the sightseeing market is managed by a fishing company based in Kesennuma, Miyagi Prefecture, which operates large tuna fishing boats. Not only does it feature the signature tuna, but it also offers oysters, sea cucumbers, Jinka mackerel, and Kesennuma sanma, with over 1,500 types of seafood available for sale on-site. The first floor of the building is dedicated to fresh fish sales, attracting not only tourists but also many locals from Sendai City who come to purchase seafood, resulting in a constant flow of people. The market also offers light meals, with the most popular item being the exclusive Matsushima oyster burger. This unique dish features a croquette made with oyster cream sandwiched in a bun made from "Sasanishiki" rice, sourced from Tome City. Another must-try local delicacy is the fried swordfish burger made from Kesennuma's swordfish. The second floor features a sales area for processed products such as shishamo fish fillets and canned seafood, along with a dining area that accommodates up to 120 seats. Kesennuma's most famous specialty is high-quality shark fin. Be sure to try the shark fin ramen, or opt for sushi or seafood donburi for a hearty meal. Additionally, the parking lot includes a popular oyster hut called "Grilled Oyster Hut," where you can enjoy all-you-can-eat grilled oysters. The baked oysters and set meals featuring grilled oysters and oyster rice are also highly recommended.
