I got this dish last week and I really loved the two pieces on the left, I don’t have yellowtail and white fish identified. I’m assuming the bottom left is yellowtail but in that case, what is that other fish specifically? It was definitely my favorite asides the salmon and the negi hamachi handroll. Also what kind of mushrooms are in the rice? They were so delicious and sweet!

Looks like yellowtail (hamachi) and white tuna if I had to guess
The “white fish” or pale color is yellowtail the belly area.
The “clear” colored with red kight be some type of madai, maybe?
Possibly tilapia and yellowtail belly.
The mushroom is shiitake and it’s been cooked with other ingredients which adds to the sweetness. It’s delicious.
Your chirashi looks like it’s MS13
yellowtail belly on top with silver skin and kanpachi on bottom imo
Bottom left might be snapper?
Do people on this sub just order random sushi/sashimi and immediately go to Reddit for answers instead of just asking their waiter/waitress or waitress READING THE MENU ITEM YOU ORDERED.
Top could be Toro
The mushrooms dish is fukumeni. https://www.justonecookbook.com/simmered-shiitake-mushrooms/#wprm-recipe-container-232315
You can cook almost any strongly structured mushroom this way. There are versions that also add sliced fish cake and/carrots.
You can half or double the recipe easily. We cook it monthly or so with okra and spinach ohitashi.
Read the menu or ask the server
Are we giving “clam” a pass here?
Shot in the dark: hamachi top and kampachi bottom.
There’s numerous things they could be but being in TX you’re probably not getting Shima Aji or something else that might be opaque with pink this time of year.
PS you cuttlefish is probably hotate / scallop.
