Family tradition

OTO Sushi is deeply rooted in our family's tradition of fishing, ocean conservation, and a lifelong connection to the sea. With a heritage built on generations in the boating industry, we carry those values into everything we do.

Our restaurant is a family-run venture, honoring these traditions by sourcing responsibly and creating an experience that reflects our love for the ocean and the community it brings together.

Sourcing

We source our fish from MSC, ASC, and BAP-certified fisheries, Seafood Watch-approved suppliers, and Smart Catch partners.

Every fish on the sushi menu is listed with its origin and catch method, from hook-and-line albacore off the Pacific Northwest to satellite-mapped dredge scallops from Nova Scotia.
