I'll be honest, I was hesitant to come here at first. The parking lot looked packed, and from the outside the building looked pretty small. When we walked in, it looked absolutely slammed, so I was already having my doubts. Those doubts disappeared pretty quickly. We were seated almost immediately and given menus. Our waiter promptly brought us a complimentary crab stick tempura appetizer, followed by a clear soup for each of us. Neither was something we ordered, and while it did mean we didn't even get a chance to order drinks until the soup arrived, I certainly wasn't complaining about being given free food! We ordered a few appetizers and our dinners, and everything came out incredibly quickly, especially considering how packed the restaurant was. The chicken tempura appetizer was an interesting one. It only had two pieces of chicken and four or five pieces of vegetables. Normally I'd consider that a little skimpy, but two pieces of chicken is pretty standard for a chicken tempura appetizer, so the vegetables were essentially a bonus. And honestly, they were phenomenal. I wouldn't change a thing about the portion. The dipping sauce was probably the weakest part of the meal. It wasn't bad by any means, but it wasn't particularly flavorful either. That's a pretty minor criticism considering everything else was so good. Then dinner arrived. The timing was almost perfect. Our food came out just as we were finishing our appetizers and had a chance to let everything settle. And WOW. The sushi was absolutely fantastic. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, the flavors were excellent, and the presentation was beautiful. One thing I particularly appreciated was that our waiter actually pointed out which roll was which on the serving plate. It's a small detail, but it made the experience feel much more intentional. The service was excellent throughout the entire meal. Our waiter checked on us enough to make sure we had everything we needed without constantly hovering over us. We never felt neglected, but we also never felt like we were being interrupted every five minutes. Overall, this was one of the most enjoyable dinner experiences I've had in quite some time. We came in expecting the packed restaurant to mean a long wait and questionable service, and instead walked out thoroughly impressed. I'll absolutely be coming back. read more

Same delicious food as the Fancy Sushi on Sadler but presentation not as wonderful and interior not as new and bright.

This place is the best! Their hibachi is so good! The service is great and it's quiet and quaint. They get plenty of to go orders and their sushi and sashimi is delicious too! I try and go every chance I get! read more

Everything here was really good. We were seated and given soup and a free sushi sample. I ordered the super bowl. This is a poke Bowl with tuna; salmon and krab. Plenty of toppings and protein. My wife ordered 3 sushi rolls. We thought we would split one and she would eat 2. These rolls were huge. Together we could not finish them. Next time we will try some hibachi. read more

very good food!! the ambience of the restaurant is nice, and the service is friendly enough! very expensive for the area, but always delicious. I like the fried rice and crunchy roll. I wish they had better hours!! read more

Delicious! Stopped in to grab some take out on my way home and was pleasantly surprised how great it was! It's a small spot in a strip mall, but was packed for a Monday night! Quite a few larger parties coming in that had to wait for a table and plenty more getting take out. I placed the order while I was there and despite being crowded, it was ready in about 10 minutes. If you order a minimum of $35 then give you a free small roll to go. Prices were pretty average for their special rolls, most about $15 there were a few that were $17-$18 but after my first try I wouldn't mind the pricier tag if I know it's going to be good! Definitely would recommend for some fresh seafood and great special roll options! read more

Really good sushi and sashimi. That's all it takes! Although a little slow for carry out when busy, worth the wait.

We placed a to go order and didn't get some of our items. The bags is all tied up so my husband didn't think to check. He got home and we realized the items were not included so we called. They expected us to drive back out to pick up the items. No offer aside from just putting my name in a book and I can get one next time I go. Why would I ever go back and support this business and give them anymore of my money? Thanks for putting my name in the book I guess. read more

Went here for Sushi on Saturday night. The food is fine. We had sushi and it was good, although we've had better. They messed up our order a little, but they fixed it right away after we pointed it out. Two things to note: The family that runs it is Chinese, not Japanese. I suspect their fried rice and noodle dishes would be better. Second: The server was loud and boisterous. She was trying to be friendly, but it seemed a little jarring to us. At the end they give you fortune cookies. read more

Came here simply because we just wanted to grab a quick dinner close to the house (we are new to the area). When we sat down, we were immediately greeted with soup and samples of holiday roll. I ended up ordering hibachi chicken (insane portion ) and my wife had a sashimi platter. Everything was great. Service was excellent. Not a big place, and that's another thing we liked about it. Low-key and quick.. plus awesome staff and delicious food. What more could we ask for? read more

I love this place! Food and service is wonderful! Clean restaurant and plenty of parking

Very nice people, but... we were having dinner and noticed a hair on the shrimp sauce- ok I will take my napkin and wipe it off and try not to think about it. We start eating our meal and notice another hair in my meal- a little more irritated but we are hungry and I just say maybe it was mine. Now my wife is eating and looks down and has a hair in her meal- no more, we are about to puke. Not sure if everyone there needs hair nets or if someone has the mange...guess we won't be back...too bad cause like I said they were nice. read more

As always, this is the place for sushi in Nassau county. This time I went with two of my grandsons and they are a little messy. The team serve us like always and help up clean the mess the kids made. If you are in the area, come and try this place; awesome sushi and great service. read more

A great sushi spot if you find yourself in Yulee. The staff was incredibly attentive, even on a super busy night. The sushi and sashimi are cut and made very well. The appetizers and hibachi entrees are also cooked very well. The fish tasted very fresh and there was a large variety of sashimi and sushi rolls. They were also happy to customize the rolls if there was an ingredient you did not want or wanted to add. I have to sadly say the bathroom threw me as it was incredibly large and half of it was used as a storage area. That and the cleanliness could stand to be improved a bit. It's not that it seemed un-sanitary, but just didn't look very professional. read more

I'm not sure why it took us so long to try this place. We live within 2 miles and go by all the time. I felt like sushi and my wife said let's try it. I'm really glad we did! Sushi was fantastic. We had a variety but the clear favorite was the shrimp tempura we started off with. The restaurant is not huge but a quirky layout. Place was pretty packed and they were stacking to go orders. It's pretty clear it's very popular. We were not in the mood for the cooked dishes, but got a great view as they went by and I will say the food looked great and portions huge. The fancy sushi roll my wife ordered was very good. I did a la carte and my fave was the scallops. Def going back and doing takeout. read more

They serve sushi as well as hibachi style food, but the 4 of us only ate sushi. They offer a wide variety of rolls and everything we tried was delicious. The plates with our food came with cute lighted decorations. A definite " add this to the list restaurant" read more

Friends and I were in the mood for good sushi. I'm from the Jacksonville area and know good sushi but didn't want to drive to far so I search Yelp and Fancy Sushi had some great reviews so we decided to check it out - thank god! Walked in on a Saturday around 2:00 and the place was packed. We had 6 people and only waited about 10 minutes as they set up a table. Not only was there steady traffic coming through, there were so many take out orders! Definitely a hot spot with the local people. We all had the lunch special, Maki 3, with various rolls. The portion was HUGE and for the price it was a great deal. Very satisfying, fresh, clean, delicious. All meals come with clear soup and a holiday roll as soon as you sit down which was a lovely treat. Our favorite though were the FRIED OREOS that are COMPLIMENTARY. Yes they give an amazing free dessert with every meal. If you happen to be in the area I would definitely stop by. Long and short - great food, fresh sushi, friendly staff. WORTH IT. read more

A very decent sushi spot which we stopped by for lunch. The sashimi lunch special was nice and quite fresh. The salmon, vegetable, and salmon skin rolls were delicious and the tempura vegetables were crispy and done well. We were presented with a delicious fried delight compliments of the chef upon our arrival. Staff is very nice and welcoming and the place is clean. Nice spot to stop by for some sushi. read more

Stopped in for dinner because of recommendation on yelp. It was Friday night so they were busy. We were told 15 min but it was 45 minute wait. To be fair there was a large group that stayed long after they finished eating. Once seated we were waited on very quickly. She brought us drinks and hot miso soup. Then took our order and brought us a deep fried crab roll. We ordered Shrimp tempura roll,Philadelphia roll and rainbow roll. All were tasty. Service was good. read more

Good service, good sushi, definitely will go again. A little tight on the seating arrangements but it works... sorta kinda.

This was my first time and it was great! I had sushi and my friends had the habachi chicken, steak & shrimp! I got the dynamite roll and the crazy tuna! Customer service was great! The waitress was nice, attentive and helpful! It was clean and food came out fresh! read more

Our first visit was last night and while our expectations weren't set real high (based on some of the recent reviews) we were genuinely surprised! Walking up to this particular location, we were expecting the interior to be the "normal", Asian fast food layout but no, there is an attempt to make it a little more upscale than that. Not only with the interior design, but with sit down table service. It's small and the tables are fairly close together so conversations can easily be overheard, especially if you have to talk "over" the background music. Our seats didn't even get warm when the complimentary, deep fried crab rolls (2) showed up, shortly followed by the soup. The rolls were tasty but at room temperature. The soup was steaming hot but really did lack any flavor....a little salt helped. We ordered the Gyoza (fried pot-stickers) which were excellent....probably the best we've had in quite awhile from anywhere. Our main courses of filet mignon hibachi, teriyaki chicken hibachi and pork katsu were very good as well as plentiful. The service was very good with my only compliant being, all of our drink glasses went empty and we had to ask for refills. We'll probably be back. read more

I love this place! Never had a bad experience. When they say it's fancy they mean it. But the prices are great

First time here or having sushi in the area. They gave us fried tempura crab appetizer on the house which was very tasty, along with miso soup. The sushi was very good. The service was good as well. read more

Good rolls but prefer spicy tuna as whole tuna and not tuna mush. Other rolls were delicious and will be back

Came here with my boyfriend back in August on our way back from Raleigh for the R6 majors to meet an online friend. Glad to say that our our experience here was one of the best from a sushi restaurant. I ordered the California roll and my friend had ordered the dynamite roll. The potions they brought out were decent size compared to other places here in Tampa. Recommend to anyone who loves sushi read more

One of my go-to restaurants! Service is SUPER quick. Tommy is an excellent addition to their service team! Upon being seated they serve you a small bowl of their clear soup (my personal favorite) and their holiday roll which even my 6 year old and my non-sushi-eating husband loves. I personally love their crunch roll and their dumplings. My husband enjoys the shrimp fried rice and edamame. Definitely give this place a try read more

The service was absolutely the worst. Very inattentive staff and my food didn't come out after 30 minutes. Not once was I asked if I wanted a refill etc. First and absolute last time I will eat here. read more

This review is for the Fernandina beach location. I was really hoping that this new location would be our go-to sushi spot but I can't afford to eat here. Two years ago the sushi buffets we went to in GA had $18.99 all you could eat sushi buffets that included nigiri. I could eat 12 pieces of tuna or salmon nigiri in a meal before I was full. It was pricey, but the fish was fresh and we went as an occasional treat. Now at fancy Sushi it is $3.50 for a single piece of tuna or salmon ngiri. To eat my 12 pieces it would cost me $42. nigiri is a one bite affair. I'm not sure about anyone else, but I can't afford to put food in my mouth at a rate of $3.50 per bite. I realize inflation is a thing, but at a certain point someone has to say "this is ridiculous". read more

My absolutely favorite hibachi and sushi place to go! I take all my visitors here! They have great white sauce.

We have tried several Asian / Chinese restaurants in the Fernandina beach area. All have come up wanting except for Fancy Sushi & Grill. Not 5 star but better than the rest. read more

Ordered mostly sushi and one hot meal. This is a very average sushi / Japanese food place.

Food is always filling & delicious. Quick friendly service. Both locations offer a relaxed atmosphere. Suitable for all occasions. Take out orders are prepared fairly quick as well! This place will ALWAYS be a family favorite & go-to spot! read more

If you are in a pinch for hibachi this will do. It wasn't flavorful or memorable in a standout way.

There was plastic in my food they didn't do anything about it so they are no longer getting my service. We try to talk to them about it and then they give us a fake number as well for the Manager read more
