The producer
Why it matters.
Four Star brings chef judgment to seafood procurement and has exact current supplier evidence throughout Nisei's menu, while dated Californios evidence remains explicitly historical/current-unknown.
The origin.
Chefs Adrian Hoffman and Ismael Macias founded Four Star Seafood in 2015 to shorten the route between fishermen and restaurant kitchens. The company now combines seafood distribution with curated provisions, direct-to-consumer retail, and San Francisco and Southern California logistics.
