Environmental and animal-welfare concerns about over-fishing aside it seems that tuna is in fact dangerous to eat:

I've heard that tuna sushi, although often a cheap item, is actually the biggest rip-off in terms of mark-up. As a general rule, the more expensive the sushi the closer you get to a "fair" price. I wonder about other fish; these days I mostly just get cooked eel or salmon rolls from the ghetto Japanese place by my apartment. When I have real sushi (which is rarely) at a trustworthy-seeming place, I often get the edomae chirashi, which is also a very good test of their standards. When it is prepared well, it's a real bargain for the fish you get.
