Tsuneo Endo has sold fresh fish, Asian veggies and Hawaiian goods for over three decades in El Cerrito. His store, Yaoya-san, has been a reliable spot for Japanese food stuffs, steadily expanding and developing a clientele who travel from as far as Sacramento to get their Japanese groceries.

Today, Endo runs his market with his wife, Tetsuko Endo, and son, Kyosuke Endo, who started helping at the store around 14 years ago when he was in high school.

“We’re trying our best,” the younger Endo said, saying he hopes to deliver a consistent level of service and fair prices to customers.

Yaoya-San, 10566 San Pablo Ave., El Cerrito, Calif. is open Tuesdays through Sundays, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. For more information, visit: https://www.yaoyasan.com/
