The overview

Japantown's fish market since 1950

Central Fish Company has anchored Fresno's Chinatown since 1950, a family-run seafood market, Japanese grocery, and lunch counter rolled into one. The fish case supplies restaurants across the valley, while the back kitchen turns out fresh sushi, poke, and teriyaki plates to a devoted lunch crowd.

Part market, part gift shop, part diner, Central Fish is a genuinely multigenerational institution — the place Fresno has bought its seafood and Japanese pantry staples for three-quarters of a century.
