    More like a 3.5. The inside was cute and cozy and they have a good lunch special. The dumplings were yummy, as well as the miso soup and salad that comes with your meal. The sushi itself was just okay. Also the waitress was not super friendly.

    Great cuts of sashimi
    Candy K.

    Fancy sushi is the best place at the beach if you love sushi and particularly sashimi. There is no better place for consistently well cut, big thick pieces of sashimi. Their salmon sashimi is so good it's like butter. I wouldn't say there's much very "fancy" about fancy sushi in terms of decor or menu items, but it doesn't need to be. The service has always been prompt, and I love that they bring you soup right away and a holiday roll, and it's included. So, you never sit there starving! We usually get sashimi, a roll and the kids steak hibachi for our son. The hibachi is standard, always good but nothing particularly amazing about it. I do like that it's a good price for the kid's portion. We love the Yellowtail Jalapeño appetizer, and it usually had some decently sized pieces of yellowtail. I have ordered this at other places and the slices are thin slivers. But Fancy Sushi always does big cuts for their sashimi. I have not tried a lot of their cooked options, so my review is for the true sushi lovers. I'm not talking California rolls here or anything deep fried. Where they really stand out is the quality of and size of their sashimi cuts. They also have the best prices on good cold sake. I recommend the Aladdin bottle. Also, at the end, they bring out friend Oreos with a little whip cream and sprinkles! We always leave happy, and stuffed!

    Shrimp Tempura Roll
    Rachna K.

    We were excited to check this place out after the good reviews but kind of disappointed. We got two basic rolls but no sauces or toppings on them. They told us the shrimp tempura would have eel sauce and it didn't. In addition we ordered a "chicken fried rice" as listed on their menu and they brought us plain rice with a little soy sauce and chicken on the side, no vegetables or anything. We asked our server and she was initially rude and saying that's how they give chicken fried rice but eventually one of the other workers was nice enough to take it back and take it off our check. The actual sushi did taste good and the restaurant was simple but a nice place to eat! I'll give it a 3 stars since they ended up comping the fried rice and the rolls still tasted good even though they were simple

    Took my nieces here as they wanted to try. So glad they choose this place as the service, food and ambiance was amazing. Our server was on point and was very accommodating from how she greeted us , to order taking, to checking up on us during our dinner and most importantly did not rush us out. Super chill and super nice Morgan was. The ambiance was great, nothing too fancy , well except for the food lol. The noise level was good, the place itself is on the smaller side but we were able to carry on conversations without background noise being a distraction or disturbance. I ordered the Poke Bowl. Honestly one of the best bowls I have had in a longgggg time. I had the salmon and tuna with 5 toppings which are included by choice- mango, Kani, seaweed, avocado, enamande and white rice. The bowl was huge, packed with flavor, added a little soy sauce and it was perfection at its finest. The presentation was on point, and I definitely could tell before my first bite I was going to love it. I would definitely go back again and try another bowl.

    California Roll, Lobster Roll, Black Dragon Roll
    Evelyn G.

    This was the first time my daughter and I have been here, and it definitely lives up to its name! The place was clean and simply decorated. As soon as I sat down waiting for my daughter, we were served complimentary clear soup, then the server proceeded to take my drink order. As soon as my daughter arrived, we were served a complimentary fried sushi. I've never been to a sushi restaurant that serves a complimentary dish except for soup, so that was very nice! We ordered the California roll, lobster roll, and Black Dragon Roll. The sushi was beautifully served on an elegant black platter decorated with a beautiful real orchid. It looked so fancy! The sushi was delicious! Once we were done, we were served complimentary fried Oreos. The service was quick and attentive, the food was elegant and delicious,.

    Oh how I love Sushi. Tonight my son said let's go it some sushi, I M taking you to dinner. Music to my ears! He choose Fancy Sushi and believe me it did not disappoint. He ordered and I ate and ate and ate. Everything was fresh and delicious. The restaurant was bustling but we scored 2 seats at the Sushi Bar. Service was attentive and watching the Sushi Chefs do their magic is always a treat. My son over ordered so we packed enough sushi for the next days meal. I have no idea what everything is called as I did not order. Fancy Sushi you have claimed a place on my Beach rotation list!

    Fancy sushi is my favorite place for sushi at the beaches. It is always fresh and they give you a house roll that is unique and the perfect appetizer. Everything always comes out as expected and one time, they put a big old beautiful ceramic tree on our plate which made our night! If you're craving sushi, this is the spot!

    Tuna roll and avocado roll
    Lizzy G.

    Great lunch spot. Their prices were reasonable, especially the lunch special. We stopped here on our way to the beach and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The lunch special came with a choice of sushi roll, soup, and salad. Our server was kind and helpful. We were able to get in and out pretty quickly.

    Picture was my leftovers because I wasn't a fan. Hopefully my husband will eat it.

    Extremely disappointed tonight. The hibachi chicken and shrimp and noodles were definitely not fresh cooked.I think they must've had it in a warming pan. The chicken was so soft it was kinda mushy. You know that yummy grill taste you usually get with hibachi. There was none. I just went a couple weeks ago and it was not like that. Noodles were way over cooked too. Service is lacking. Table still had three pieces of food still on it when we were seated. Forks were dirty. We had to ask for refills for our drinks. We went on Sat Aug 17th around 8 it wasn't too busy plenty of staff. I didn't give a one star because I usually like this place. Hopefully this won't happen again.

    Lives up to the name!! Went there with some friends and ordered 8 pc sashimi. Omggg it's soo fresh, almost melts in your mouth. They always come out with a complimentary holiday roll which is delicious and staff is very nice and always checking up on us. Great place for casual lunch or dinner :)

    Starter Miso Soup
    Beth W.

    We were hungry for sushi and saw good ratings for this restaurant and figured the Yelp community wouldn't steer us wrong! While it may not look real 'fancy' from the outside, the food and service inside was excellent! Our lunch came with the broth soup which had great flavor. We ordered a few different sushi rolls to share and they put everything nicely displayed together. The roll size was manageable (I'm not a fan of when they are too big and hard to eat in one bite), the fish was fresh and the flavors were great. We'll be back when we're in the area!

    Pretty decor.

    I was in the area and already had a late lunch, so I was not going to have dinner. But, I saw so much traffic in and out of Fancy Sushi & Grill-I decided to go ahead and order a meal, plus an extra clear soup and a salad. I ordered the Habachi chicken that came with clear soup and a salad, so an extra soup and a California roll was added to my order. Then, I headed home to share the huge meal with Ernie. Ernie and I split the meal and still had so much entree left over. We had our fill. I was too full to try the soup. I will try it tomorrow. I have to make a special mention for the dear sweet lady at the front desk, cashier and order taking station. That lady can multitask like a sixteen year old. Kudos to that hard working woman. Wow! Pros: the food was good, hot and very tasty. The decor and atmosphere was nice, the sushi bar looked pleasant as well. Cons: they need to improve on the ginger dressing-no flavor and the salad was thrown away. Would I recommend this restaurant? YES! The vibe and buzz was good. I love the beach. It's so relaxing here. Kudos!

One of my favorite items is the Japanese fried rice, because I like the crispy bits you get when it's cooked on the hibachi....no crispy bits.

Grabbing those seats was the best decision we made as we were entertained by both the hibachi chefs and the sushi station all night. The chefs were interactive, friendly, and clearly skilled at what they do. Our waitress, Jennifer, was absolutely on point, accommodating, polite, and happy to offer recommendations that did not disappoint. We ordered the shrimp tempura, bagel roll, and spider roll for sushi, along with the shrimp and steak hibachi, which she thoughtfully split onto two plates for us without even being asked. The sushi arrived first, beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavor. Soup and salad followed, then the hibachi entrée , all timed perfectly so we never felt rushed or overcrowded with dishes. The shrimp was fresh, the steak cooked perfectly, and the fried rice seasoned just right with herbs and spices that complemented the entire meal. Every part of the experience flowed from start to finish. A return visit is already in the works this month. Highly recommend this spot and major thanks to the employees for being at the top of their game! Truly a 5 star experience.
