Marufuji, a new Japanese grocery store in Tysons, offers a wide selection of Japanese products, including wagyu beef, sushi-grade fish, and various snacks. It's the first large grocery store in the area dedicated to Japanese goods and features a cafe serving Japanese cuisine.
A one-stop shop for wagyu, sashimi, and all the Japanese snacks you could dream of is now open in Tysons. Marufuji, a spinoff of a small family-owned grocery chain that started in Connecticut, offers around 18,000 square feet of Japanese products, plus a cafe for chirashi or curry bowls. While Northern Virginia has a number of pan-Asian grocery stores specializing in Korean, Chinese, or Vietnamese products, this is the first large grocery store in the area dedicated to all things Japanese.
Among the big draws: dozens of varieties of sushi-grade fish flown in from Toyosu Market in Japan or sourced domestically, like bluefin tuna from Boston. The store will offer three types of uni, including smaller trays from $40 to $50 and super deluxe options closer to $200.The store will also offer Japanese wagyu in addition to Sakura Wagyu from wagyu cows raised in Wisconsin.
A grab-and-go area will offer sushi, onigiri, and bento boxes, but there’s also a 48-seat cafe where you can order tonkatsu curry, wagyu-topped gyudon rice bowls, sushi handrolls, and chirashi bowls with salmon and ikura. The cafe also serves matcha lattes and Ogawa Coffee from Kyoto.
