Amazing! The food is great and the staff even better! I've been there for a casual outing and for a birthday and each time they... went above and beyond with amazing service and delicious food. Thank you! Read more
This place had a cool beach vibe with their music, and after you put in your order, you get it super quick. Their waitresses... were very attentive and sweet, and talking with the locals on the patio, they love this place, and my wife and I loved it too. Read more
Eating KETO and was happy they could accommodate us with "no rice" selections. The sushi was very good and I was glad to be... able to sit and eat. Read more
My hubby and I stopped at Fuji Yama NB coz we read the reviews, 4.6! As sushiholics, we definitely had to try it! But... unfortunately we were disappointed. It?s absolutely not a 4.6 restaurant. 1. Rice. Terrible. Hard. Too much vinegar. I neededto chew the rice really hard. 2. Blue-fin. Dry. Super Dry with fishy smell. Other chefs absolutely won?t serve it! 3. Golden eyesnapper. Why added black truffles to the sushi? Coz it?s not fresh? The flavours just didn?t go well with each other. 4. Aji. Weweren?t sure if they were Aji. But it?s okay. Not that bad. 5. Salmon. Forgot to take a picture. It was the best. Decent. Butthe rice ruined the flavour. All in all, we won?t go back again. For the price, you can find way better restaurants with muchfresher fish in Orange County. Read more
Ate here twice in two days after driving to LA from Georgia. Best sushi I've ever had.
We went to eat Lunch/Dinner here at 3:00 PM on a Saturday with a good friend who eats here often and recommended the restaurant.... We sat in the section that did not have the hibachi tables because we were planning on eating sushi instead of the Hibachigrill. We started our meal with their house salad. The salad dressing was flavorful, and they were very generous with theamount of dressing. I eat at many hibachi restaurants, and I thought this was the best salad served in this style that I havehad. After the salad, we ordered the mixed tempura plate. The tempura was light and crispy. The dipping sauce was flavorfuland enhanced the flavor of the tempura but was not overpowering. The plate had peppers, sweet potatoes, broccoli, zucchini,acorn squash, onions, and beautiful long shrimp. It was then time for the sushi to arrive. We ordered the Shogun Roll (aspecialty roll not on the menu), the volcano roll, the monster roll, and a spider roll. I thought the sushi we ordered hadgreat flavor and was well constructed and tightly wrapped. Nothing fell apart as we tried to eat it. My favorites would be theShogun Roll and the Monster Roll. This was the first time I had eel on my sushi, which was very good. The service was verygood, and they always kept our drinks filled. They were attentive when we were ready for the next portion of our meal and neverrushed us as we ate. We left a little bit before 5:00 PM, and they were very busy. If you plan on coming during regular dininghours, I recommend making a reservation. Read more
