このさかなをさんまいおろしにしてもらえますか？

Can you fillet this fish into three pieces for me?

Romaji: Kono sakana o sanmai-oroshi ni shite moraemasu ka? / Reply Romaji: Hai, dekimasu yo. Shōshō o-jikan o itadakimasu ga yoroshī deshou ka?

はい、できますよ。少々お時間をいただきますがよろしいでしょうか？

はい、できますよ。しょうしょうおじかんをいただきますがよろしいでしょうか？

Yes, I can do that. It will take a little time, is that alright?

Point to the fish, then use a hand motion to indicate filleting (or a 'cutting' motion), followed by a slight bow.

Some smaller stalls might not offer this service, especially if they're very busy. Be ready to accept 'no' gracefully.
