Takahashi Market has been around since 1906, but about 20 years ago, a lunch item put it on the map.

Takahashi Market’s humble menu is a collection of printed sheets of paper that are taped on a wall by the main entrance. The vibrant photos on each sheet showcase a selection of lunch items that feature Portuguese sausage, salmon belly and freshwater eel musubis, among others. But its top seller remains the classic Spam musubi, which also happens to be the most affordable option at $5.95. And since they're bigger than your hand, they're a steal for Bay Area prices.

Once finished, the musubis are wrapped in aluminum foil, labeled and placed inside a food warmer positioned by the main entrance. Gene said that he recommends customers place their musubi orders by phone or email at least 24 hours in advance to ensure that their favorite one is available — otherwise it's first come, first served.Lance Yamamoto/SFGATE

During the early years of the pandemic, Takahashi Market reconfigured how it served customers by making strategic changes to its kitchen. Before the pandemic, musubis were made to order, but it began to strain kitchen staff when customers placed up to 10 items at a time. Gene said that it got to a point where customers had to wait about 30 minutes before their orders came out.
