Fujiyama Steakhouse & Sushi Bar

My husband and I have been coming here for half off sushi for years. It’s been a while since our last visit but we went last night… much to our dismay. First of all, just in case you don’t already have to jump through hoops (cash only, order a drink, after 10pm, only order once etc) it’s only 40% off now! Seriously? Is that 10% really gonna break the bank for you? I mean being cash only you have to be careful how much you spend and now it’s that much more difficult.
Unfortunately, that’s not even the worst of it. Both my husband and I were terribly sick for hours in the middle of the night. After getting like 3 hours of sleep because I was up sick the rest of the night I’m lying in bed the next morning writing this, praying my still queezy stomach doesn’t get worse again because my best friends baby shower is later today.
What a disappointing crash and burn: (

Fun! Better food than the other steakhouse. We will go for celebrations of good grades, etc. Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

A friend and I went here for dinner and she had been there multiple times this would be my first time and Fort be my first time I was not impressed I did not enjoy the food when we were sat at our table the silverware was dirty the plate had some type of food on it the food was just overpriced the food was just blah. I definitely will not be returning.

Owner –John may bring the customers in but no one trained him on customer service ! So therefor his staff follows the same suit. Let’s argue because you received 2 TBS of vegetables ??? Are u that cheap u can’t serve extra or your portions are not correct for each customer? Let’s make u wait for your check after the table leaves because u now are cooking what u call extra vegetables too make the customer happy. Oh boy … Time to find a new Hibachi restaurant, after all the years eating there, this one gets a thumbs down and loses a customer today.

Went with 6 girlfriends to have a good time and ended up being pretty bored. I’ve been to Habachi grills many times. I wanted to show some of my friends who have never been, how fun these places can be but the last two times I’ve been HERE the Chef is awful! No eye contact with the customers, no smile, monotone speaking and almost robotic like. Very disappointed.
You are suppose to be entertained when you go… not so much…

Terrible chemical taste in my mouth after Diet Coke. Persisted even after meal, I told management and they basically argued with me that nothing was wrong. I used to come here all the time, and spend lots of money. Not anymore. Mediocre food that is overpriced.

Probably best sushi around. Great flavor, fast service and never over crowded. Only reason didn’t get 5 stars is the obnoxious music playing. They really need to find music that is suitable for any age group.

They should close. Attitude problems, never ready for customers and they bring you your order and then forget about you. They’re so put out by doing a shoddy job of doing their jobs that I’ll never be back. I’d rather just drive one exit further and go to Crocker Park. MUCH better sushi and MUCH better atmosphere. Go to Veing’s instead.

i like fujiyama, but sometimes i feel like, how can you mess up hibachi?
i do like to dine in the sushi dining room and experience that side of things as well.
i feel that the servers are not the friendliest, especially when dining in for their ½ price sushi nights, which I think I heard are not ½ price anymore.
if you are craving sushi and you are in the area, not a bad choice.
i just do not think it’s up high on my list of places to frequent.

Our chef was great and they were knowledgeable about gluten free! However our sushi and dinner at the Teppan-​Yaki table was just OK.

I should have reviewed this place last time I was there, but truly… every experience has been a good one. Their sushi is fresh, beautiful and flavorful. Never any cold clumpy rice or soft fish. Even when you go for late night (10 pm– midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, they offer 40% off most sushi rolls!) it’s delicious. Prices are fair, décor is nice and it’s always clean. Service is friendly and they have a pretty good drink selection.
A definite favorite stop on the far west side!
I have never tried their hibachi

I was a steady patron every Friday night for over two years. I used to constantly bring people with me and I always tipped very well. The trick with the half-​priced sushi special was that it didn’t start until a certain hour, so it was extremely important to get there on time and get your order in or else you would be waiting a very very long time to get your food. The tempura is great and there were several special rolls I really enjoyed. The tempura banana desert is excellent as well. But after awhile, I started noticing that I was having stomach problems the next day. Around the same time, we started noticing the fish was sometimes not so fresh. The situation continued to decline until the last time I went, I ordered some sashimi and it came out smelling funny. I told the waitress and asked to have the sashimi replaced. However they chose not to and that was the end of my patronage.

I enjoy their Hibachi entrees. The quantity of food is good. I think they may have cut the quantity from the past as I used to always have a take home box but the last few times I finished it all. The chefs are pretty skilled (some more entertaining than others). Love the miso soup. Their ginger dressing is okay but wish it was more of a creamy ginger dressing (more of a ranch consistency) than the chopped ginger paste like dressing. Their sushi is pretty decent as well. I think it is one of the better ones in my area. My favorite happens to be to far so I come here if I don’t feel like driving to the Beachwood area as I am a westsider.

We’ve been here a few times and the experience has been very inconsistent. At its best it was ok and at its worst — it was the worst hibachi experience I’ve had. On our most recent trip, the restaurant was mostly empty, the seafood was stale and rubbery, the stir fried rice was bland at watered down and they brought out our appetizer after the meat was served. Definitely not worth $ 145 and we will not be going back.

I’ve been there with the family a dozen times. Experiences with service has been average to good. We continue to go because the food is much more consistent than with other hibachi restaurants. I can deal with the occasional rude high school kid filling my water as long as the food is delicious and the chef is entertaining. One of my three kids has recently taken to eating sushi… and the quality of everything I’ve sample from her plate is quickly converting me as well!

Dinner out with the kids and a couple of their friends and they wanted Japanese at Fujiyama. This would not be my first choice, but the kids enjoy the hibachi style dining experience. The overall atmosphere is not inviting at all, no bonus points for décor. This place was almost empty on a Friday night at 7pm. The food quality was good and hibachi chef was entertaining along with good service.

Four of us stopped in for dinner. Had chicken steak and scallops. Everything was cooked to perfection in the fried rice is really good. The chef was fun and we enjoyed the show.

The sushi festival was delish and fun. There’s something about the presentation that made me excited to eat it. Try the tempura-​style fried cheesecake. It’s weird but tastes good :)

Wonderful sushi if you dine in… Takeout is awful. Rolls are very small and very expensive for what you are given. We live in Avon and visit a few times a month.
We will never order takeout again…
Sushi was fresh…
See that plate below of sushi??? Looks nothing like that I promise.

Food is very good. Had my first Sushi experience there and was pleasantly surprised. Prices are a bit high so I don’t order much but the flavors are nice. Service is quick and it’s never super busy when I go. I would tell my friends to go there. Wish I was there right now. :)

Best dining experience ever! First of all our waiter was cool, set up our sake bombs for us! Then the chef was off the chain, cool as hell! He flung egg in our mouths and squirted sake at us, sooooo cool! Worth every penny!!! 10 stars!

I never heard of a «side tip.» I gave the Hibachi chef $ 10.00 cash then put the rest of my 20% tip on my credit card with the bill. The waitress had the nerve to come back and embarrass me in front of all the guests to explain my tip. Then she yelled at me stating that she had to pay the chef $ 8.00 out of her pocket. I said, «I already gave him $ 10.00. She told me that’s a «side tip.» I spent $ 100.00 total for 2 people and my wife didn’t even drink. Here’s a tip: avoid this place!

It was my first time at a hibachi grill and we stopped on our road trip to have dinner with the in-​laws! Came here upon the insistence of my brother in law. Upon walking in, it looks like you might have walked into a closed down restaurant. Very barren and just lacking any color or decorations. We sat and our expectations were pretty low. You tell your server what you want to order… type of meat, how much, etc. He did a horrible job explaining how it works. I think we ended up paying entirely too much because we finally just ordered something. Our «mushroom» soup came out… not sure what it was but it looked gross. I don’t think one person touched theirs. Then our salads. It was literally, 5 pieces of wilted iceberg lettuce with the standard ginger dressing.
Our cook showed up and he is the only saving grace for this review! He was phenomenal. Hilarious, talented, and very entertaining. Every other table wanted him to be theirs! The food though… not very good. And by not very good, I mean terrible. Lack flavor, needed salt or the dipping sauce that they gave you. We didn’t order dessert since we were so over the place by that point.
Meh.

First time experience, hands down the best sushi. ½ price Friday and Saturday nights at 10!
Great sushi. Only thing I do NOT recommend is the Miso soup. It smelled rank!
Be sure to have cash for half price deals!
