ICYMI, Yatai Market is now open in Transfer Co. Food Hall. This global-inspired fish market, restaurant, and speakeasy is headed by M Sushi’s chef Magno Tapia. Yatai, meaning shop stand in Japanese, will boast multiple food + bev stalls to celebrate the different types of sea fare.

Nestled in the large corner space which once housed Locals Seafood, this new spot offers fresh sushi, ramen, Baja-style fish tacos, and bevs. The bar space features creative cocktails and global spirits like Japanese whiskey old fashioneds and mezcal margaritas.

City Editors Cat + Allie recently dined in for lunch and tried the ramen and spicy tuna hand roll with edamame + miso soup — everything was soy good.
