Fujiyama Japanese Steak & Sushi Restaurant

I’ve been to a lot of hibachi restaurants and this one is subpar. They don’t serve the noodles. The meat portions are small and the prices are the same as nicer hibachi grills.

Tina sashimi was good. Hibachi salmon and shrimp was salty (heavy on the soy sauce). I’ve experienced this a few times before and asked for light teriyaki. I should have said light soy sauce. They new order was much better. Waitress was nice.

Excellent service. Super friendly. Sushi pretty darn good for shopping/​airport locale. Festive and cheery. Recommend.

Really disappointing. My boyfriend and I ordered six rolls. When they came the rolls were so small. Maybe as big around as around as a finger. The amount of meat in the sushi was slim. We ordered a soft shell crab roll and a dancing eel and to be honest most rolls contained none of the meat. Just cucumber. 40 dollars spent and we weren’t even slightly full. It wasn’t even that full. The portions were really poor. Not satisfying.

I love Asian food and sushi as well. This place gives me everything I need in those categories. My wife and I came in today and ordered the chicken fried rice as well as four rolls to share. Their clear soup is one of the best in town, they use a chicken stock where most places use a seafood stock, and the taste is very earthy. The fried rice was perfect and the chicken was seared perfectly. We got the King Lobster roll The Crazy Roll The Fuji Roll and the Tiger roll. If you have not tried any of these I highly recommend tasting the pure bliss that is a real Sushi house.

We ordered the katsu chicken and the hibachi steak lunches. The fried rice is bland. The steak had a good taste to it, but not much… the plate was large but filled with some kind of fries… I think zucchini. They were really good. The chicken was pretty typical. .nothing special. The soup was pretty good. The salad was good too. Service was great. The best thing about the meal. The restaurant was clean and a nice environment.

Fujiyama was an excellent choice. The restaurant was clean, service expedient. My husband had the steak & shrimp hibachi, I had the vegetable tempura bento box… both were excellent. Both accompanied with delicious Miso Soup and a crisp salad with ginger dressing. Sorry I did not have my camera to take pictures.

Airport roll is a must!!! Great sushi, good service!!! Will keep coming back!
Best sushi in Northside of Jacksonville.

We came here for the first time last weekend, not our pick. I feel like once you’ve been to one Japanese-​styled hibachi grill restaurant you’ve been to them all. Same food selections, same taste, same corny chef jokes and same ridiculous prices.
We went here for lunch and got hibachi for 3 & spent $ 75.00. Granted that included gratuity & if it was for dinner that would have been one thing but for just lunch? That’s also considering that my husband and I only ordered chicken and my daughter ordered shrimp.
I will say that their service was good, they kept our drinks full and their establishment was well-​maintained. Other than that, there’s nothing spectacular about it but if you like or are looking for a hibachi grill on the Northside of Jax this place will deliver to your expectations.

Waited to be seated and then when we were the hostess would not allow us to sit where we requested. Then we waited some more and some more and some more, finally we left.

I come here once a month by myself since I work nearby. Service is always great. I love their bento box. what a steal for $ 7.99. Rice, gyoza, sushi, vegtables, teriyaki chicken plus ginger salad and soup! They even always provide a side of shrimp sauce. My only complaint is that I wish they had a rewards program or coupons that I could actually use.

I’m giving them 5 stars for their customer service alone! Our drinks never got too low, everything we requested came out promptly and our food was hot and flavorful.
We had a ten minute wait and the restaurant was packed when we got there. Seriously, every seat was occupied and for the first time I didn’t mind.
Our waitress and waiter were amazing, yes we had two of them, maybe three or four. Every employee was concerned about our dining experience and I can appreciate that.
Their dynamite roll was AMAZING! One of the best sushi rolls I’ve tasted in Jacksonville. My auntie and I both agreed on that. Their fried rice was also great, seriously I could eat it alone. It was bursting with flavor but had no meat, I was definitely surprised.
The shrimp, chicken, filet mignon and scallops were all cooked to perfection.
The bottom line is that this place is definitely packed for a reason. Their food was hot and flavorful, their customer service is amazing and the dining experience with our family was very memorable. The ONLY con would be that drum they bang for birthdays, after the second birthday I was over it! Seriously, there were like ten birthdays during the time we were there. Ugh!
We will definitely be returning.
Happy Unilocaling…

The food wasn’t tasty at all. I ordered salmon hibachi and it was over cooked. It came with vegetables and they were bitter tasting. It was entertaining however. That’s the reason I gave them two stars. Other than that I would have given them one star.

The food was expertly prepared. Divine. Absolutely amazing. Loved the service, the food, and the personnel. Will be back.

On vacation, we went here on a recommendation of a friend, since Koja Sushi is now closed down. (I’m devastated by that, by the way.) We only ordered sushi rolls, no hibachi that night. I have no complaints about the sushi, it was good. Seemed fresh. The drink specials were a great addition to the night! The service was ok. But our waitress seemed a little confused or maybe annoyed? I suppose it was the end of the night… maybe she was ready to go home?
Not saying this was a bad place at all or even a bad visit. Just saying it didn’t leave an impression on me that would make me want to eat here the next time I come back down to visit.
Try it for yourself… you never know, maybe you’ll like it!

We had sushi (not the teppan table). The Godzilla is fantastic! The American Dream was good — but not as good as the Godzilla. I would avoid The Green Hornet, as it was a bit mushy.

We ventured to Fujiyama last Friday to start the weekend and for a friends bday dinner. It’s located in the Rivercity shopping center, by the airport, which seems to be just blowing up as far as eating and shopping are concerned.
We started with a sushi roll while we were waiting for the entire party to arrive. It was a crab, cream cheese tempura creation, the name escapes me, but I can say it was pretty good. Soon we were one to ordering our hibachi entrees… and the signature soup and salads starting making their way to our party.
Clear soup was ok… salad was not anything special… even with the ginger dressing. Our server was a bit forgetful and un-​attentive, and Mr. Unilocal decided to clear his own plate by setting it on a shelf behind us. LOL.
So the hibachi chef came out… he was absolutely hilarious. We were all in good spirits and he laughed and played along with all of our jokes… and did the normal hibachi presentations. (Volcano, shrimp toss etc.)
I ordered the shrimp, and they were a tad overcooked. But the veggies and rice were pretty good.
There was a bottle of sake ordered at the table, and I did love there was a cucumber slice in the sake glasses… it was a nice mellow addition and I am definitely jumping on the cucumber cocktail bandwagon.
Other than that, this place wasn’t really anything super special. The staff did come around to sing happy birthday and the birthday boy got a free dessert.

We loved it! had an amazing time, fun and the food tasted great! Good portions!!! It is not cheap but for the price is worth it!
