possibly some of the worst sushi I've ever had – I know I know, I couldn't believe it either, especially after reading the reviews contained herein, but... After walking in to Fuji-Ya and noticing that behind the sushi bar resided two young dudes of Mexican persuasion (and I do mean 'dudes'), I kinda knew what I would be in for. The "dudes" didn't disappoint....They dished some horribly weak sushi...the fish was thin and tasteless, the Tako was as rubbery as your grandmothers garter, our waitress was rude and "hurried" even ... read more
No.1!! – The BEST sushi place in town! The service here is awesome and the atmosphere is upbeat. For those that want a little more intimacy, the main dining room is nice and relaxed. I prefer the sushi bar where coversations are abundant and sake bombs are tempting. Food here is top notch and if you are not a sushi lover, there is an awesome black angus tobanyaki (sp) dish that will make you come back for more. If you havn't been here, give it a try!
Excellent service – I always enjoy myself when I go here. Excellent food, excellent service, great servers, the whole atmosphere. LOVE IT!
Fantastic Happy Hour!!! – This being my first Twin Cities Sushi, I have to say that it is my favorite so far- in MN! The happy hour prices are unbelievable- the service was great- and the ambiance was perfect! At an uptown restaurant you can't expect anything less than a full house; this place measures up in more ways than one. They have a great selection of sushi and appetizers and if you're lucky enough to make it during happy hour you'll be greatly pleased with the prices. Half price bottles of wine on Thursday's; how can... read more
Use to be great – I've been a Fujiya fan for 10 - 12 years since they were in the old building. Lately, my visits have been less impressive. The atmosphere is great and the staff rules, but the sushi seems to be declining in quality. I would never say such a thing of my favorite place if it wasn't consistent. I eat there at least twice a week. Presentations are not as nice, even slapped together sometimes I wanted to return it. The past six visits the sashimi was not even sliced properly, we had to pull out the tendon to che... read more
Sushi love – My boyfriend knows that I am a huge fan of sushi. He saw this place in downtown St. Paul called Fuji-ya. I had never been there and drove by serveral times. The service was great, the food was great. Everyone was so friendly. The waitress was a great help also with recommending different sushi dishes as well as specials they had on specific types of sushi. Since then we always go to Fuji-ya every two weeks, it's become a sort of routine for us now. I highly recommend Fuji-ya on Grand for anyone who is looking to... read more
Great sushi, good ambience – Great food. The service was average. The atmosphere can be loud on a Friday & Saturday night, but that's not unusual; if you go, make a reservation. All in all a great sushi place. I will return; it had awesome food.
Fresh Sushi! – I've gone to many sushi places and I must say, I love going to the Fujiya in downtown St. Paul. I've been to that restaurant over 10 times and each time they amazed me. I'm obsessed with their yellow tail and tuna. Their Dynamite roll is spicy and mouth watering. If I'm feeling really hungry, I order their Reiko box. It consist of 3 lighty, glazed terriyaki sticks, a new york strip, (medium-rare cooked perfectly) vegetable tempura, and a side of rice. The sushi chefs are very friendly and outgoing. Sometimes, ... read more
Yummy rolls – We went to the Fuji-ya in St. Paul. It's not quite as nice as the uptown Fuji-ya, but the food is as good. The have all the regular selection of rolls. The were out of toro wich was dissapointing. The serivce was good.
