The second is called New Sagaya Market. New Sagaya has two locations: one close to downtown north of Carrs and the other is east of Carrs at the corner of the Old Seward Highway and 36th Avenue. New Sagaya is filled with fresh foods that are amazing!
Carrs was sadly bought out by Safeway a few years ago, but the employees have fought hard to retain at least some small semblance of the locally owned store it used to be.
That said, there is also a sushi counter at the Carrs on Abbott.
I'd for sure hit up New Sagaya or City Market (the New Sagaya branch downtown) over Carrs, though.
