Riviera Seafood Club's Fresh Bigeye Tuna "Imperfect Cut" is known as a great all around tuna. Our Bigeye tuna are long-line caught in the wild and delivered directly to our warehouse. Each and every Bigeye Tuna is individually graded for color and clarity.
Our Bigeye Tuna selections are searing and poke grade, but we also recommend other methods for cooking including grilling, poaching, and pan fry. Upon introduction to your palate, notes of a distinct bold flavor with a hint of light umami will wash over your taste buds, complemented by a semi-firm texture.
Each piece is cut into a 8 ounce portion, ready to be cut into poke or steaks for grilling. The imperfect cut are the same great taste and flavor as our regular cuts, just not cut perfectly.
Note: It is common practice to inject carbon monoxide in Bigeye Tuna to prevent a change in color after long storage. We DO NOT agree with this method and NEVER inject our bigeye tuna with carbon monoxide.

What is Superfrozen Seafood?
Benefits of Superfreezing Seafood
By superfreezing our fresh seafood, in special ultra-cold -60°C freezers, we are able to lock in the freshness and texture of our sushi-grade seafood, while also allowing you to store our products in your conventional freezer for later consumption.
Also, to help many of our customers, most of our superfrozen seafood is shipped out in 8oz portions so you can order more at one time to save on shipping costs, and so you can thaw only the amount you need.
What if I prefer fresh seafood?
contact us
Although superfrozen seafood is extremely convenient for many of our customers, some people still prefer fresh seafood.
If you would prefer fresh cuts, feel free to reach out to place a custom order with us.
Note: "Fresh (never frozen)" seafood needs to be consumed as soon as possible. Do not re-freeze seafood as this will ruin the integrity of the fish.
