This review is for Mr. Tuna, which is located inside the Public Market House Food Court.
===================================
"Mr. Tuna" started making his Japanese temaki hand rolls from a mobile cart using a rice warmer, cutting board, and Yeti coolers packed with fresh fish and other local ingredients.
After plenty of accolades and praise from numerous publications and followers, he now has a more permanent walk-up sushi bar at the Public Market House (the city's bustling food court).
You can't go wrong with any of the hand rolls as they are all amazing. His sushi bar competes easily with some of the finest restaurants in Los Angeles or Tokyo.

Had some of the best jerk chicken at Yardie Ting that I have had in a long time. Rice and beans, plantain's, and festivals were equally amazing! Will be back.

Not many seats to sit at after you get your food . Some of the places were not open fri sat or Sunday. Had soup at karmasuoptra and it was just ok. Maybe other vendors are better.

Terrific selection of food to choose from. Make sure to visit upstairs.

Really loved this food court for its great international selection and the general quality of its vendors. Hope it thrives for a long time to come.

Great selection of food. I had chicken phone and my niece had grilled cheese tomato soup. Both were very good and served quickly. Best place to satisfy a variety of tastes without breaking the bank.

Lots of great variety and a very local feeling. My favorite things are the Maine squeeze and the pizza spot. Excellent place for a lunch stop during the workday. Happy to see new places coming in and looking forward to the final renovation to be complete!

Awesome variety of local foods. Only downside I have is each vendor seems to run their own hours. Everyone in my party loved the crepes. Sweet rice with fruit was great, as was the soup. We were there 7ish on a Fri night and many vendors were closed. You have to get a token to use the restroom, which you can get from where you buy your food, or pay a quarter.

Bland, bland, bland. Even with the flavored chicken. The beans and rice had absolutely zero flavoring, not even salt. The only flavor came from the dollop of salsa. Definitely not worth $10.

Great friendly people, excellent choice of food from the various vendors, and a terrific artisan atmosphere all make this place a must visit when we go to Portland. Our top favorite is always SOUP from Kamasouptra. Hot, steamy and delicious, it comes with a freshly baked roll. Another favorite is La Cocina Dominicana. Their chicken stew is to die for!
We're planning to go back soon to try out the latest addition to the vendor choice - Pho Co. Their Vietnamese dishes sound and look like another experience well worth trying.
A big thank you to everyone involved in this fine example of Maine enterprise at work, helping to provide us all with a real alternative to those dreaded big fast food outlets. Keep up the good work, guys!

Amazing falafels and service! Either place you go to the falafels are perfect.

The folks are so wonderful. And the "food court" type area on the second floor is a refreshing change to what most think of for courts. The atmosphere is unique, and full of character! Love it, everytime!

A fantastic little bodega with fresh veggies and eggs, cheeses, a bakery, liquor store, and deli. Above are several amazing restaurant stalls in an open room. Great place!
