Amazing food. Great service. You have to wait a little longer if you want to sit at a grill table but worth every minute of it! great atmosphere and good decor. overall a great experience. read more

The service was fabulous. Food was amazing and delicious. This was my second time visiting. Definitely worth coming back. Sushi was great

The inside of the restaurant is very welcoming, the service was great. It was a bad day for sushi the sushi was hard to chew the seaweed part was tough to chew, the hibachi was okay, the rice had no flavor and the salad was watery, I guess I'll stick to the maple rd location. The place would be nice for a date, and the bathroom was clean. Overall the waitress made the experience a nice one. read more

Omg! We ordered hibachi takeout. Halfway through the meal my daughter noticed something that looked different. It turned out to be a spider. Yes a spider! We freaked out and called them only to be told that since it was a takeout that we couldn't get our money back but credit. That isn't the point we said ! She is pregnant and is worried that something she ate could affect her pregnancy. OMG! The health department needs to be called and out there to see what is going on in that kitchen. SUPER CONCERNING!!!!!!! read more

We made reservations for 6 to celebrate my friend's birthday last week! We all love coming here for the show, the cooks are fantastic and funny. My new favorite is the lobster and scallops, everyone at our table for the most part got lobster and we all enjoyed it. Once more people came in and the shows were going on so I was a little harder to hear. read more

Fuji Grill is interactive dinner theater for adventurous extroverts. If swilling a stream of saki from the chef's squirt bottle appeals to you, then this place is for you. You will be continually prodded by the very talented and engaging chef to hold your mouth open like a trained circus seal so he can sling bits of food at you. Just know that he doesn't always hit his target, and two ladies at our table were left shaking broccoli bits from their bras. I didn't understand his instructions as he dangled a noodle in front of my husband and me but finally I deciphered that he was saying "Lady And The Tramp". Not going there, not today! The old adage about being hungry an hour after eating Japanese food applies here. I opted not to eat 6 cups of fried rice with my 4 oz of steak and scallops, so that was totally my fault. While I found my steak and scallop bits to be tasty, I don't think I'll be back. It just wasn't my cup of tea. read more

A friend took me here for my birthday after I told her I liked sushi and it was a lovely experience start to finish! I loved the quaint seating area against the window that was like being in your own private Japanese booth. Nevaeh was our server and she was SO attentive, warm, and accommodating. She was one of top 3 servers I've ever had wait on me in my entire life. She caught an issue with my friend's order, checked back often without being intrusive, and genuinely seemed to love her job and the people she was serving. Will return, and when we do, we'll request Nevaeh!!! read more

The food is consistently delicious, the service is always friendly, and the ambience is great because you get two options! hibachi which is loud and fun, or being served at a quieter table that is partitioned and more private. Would recommend! read more

This review includes direct quotes from my 12 and 7yo kids. They love the hibachi experience! "The soup is the best part." my son said. It's a simple clear broth with sliced mushrooms and chopped scallions. It's a cup that comes as part of the hibachi meals we ordered along with a cup of salad. 2 of us got the steak and shrimp combo with noodles. My 7yo ordered the adult sized shrimp dinner with noodles. I have little ones with big appetites!! "I would like the adult portion shrimp hibachi." Is how my 7yo ordered her meal. :) Our chef was entertaining and my kiddos joined in on all his antics. The food was very good. I've always enjoyed the mixed vegetables they prepare. All in all it was a great time with good food. read more

Always so good! We got the tuna tartare and the egg on top was perfect! However it is very spicy and we didn't know it was spicy tuna when we ordered it.

This has been one of my favorite restaurants for over 5 years.I have been a customer weekly over these past 5 years.Loving the sushi and hibachi.Over the past few months the quality has drastically declined.The fish is fishy,the ginger has a weird after taste.The chicken is chewy.I understand that things have gotten more expensive,but putting out food that isn't tasty,or fresh,possibly making people sick is not the answer.I will be giving them a few months to change this.Or I will no longer be a customer. read more

We LOVE Fuji Grill II! They are so welcoming and the food is always delicious. We have gotten sushi that we've loved. We've also gotten hibachi that we've loved. We always start with the onion soup. Some people call this mushroom soup or clear soup but at Fugi, it's onion soup and it's sooooo good. It is pretty much this flavorful broth with just a few super thin mushroom slices and some crunchy onions. It's the perfect way to start and evening of Asian food. We have tried some of the special rolls and they have all been winners. My favorite is the dinosaur egg! It's not in the menu and may just be a special, but maybe just ask for it.. my husbands favorite is the angry bird roll which is actually a hot roll. It's very good. It's been a long time since we've done the grill side hibachi, but it was fun when we did do it. read more

We stopped in for lunch and are so happy with our experience. I got a bento box - it came with SO much food. Everything was delicious, and our waitress could not have been more attentive.

We ordered delivery on the first night of our cross-country trip while staying at a hotel in Hamburg. We were exhausted from the drive and completion of packing that morning. Without a lot of options we picked Fuji Grill because of its high rating. 10/10 would recommend for delivery! I can't speak to their dining experience, but their food was AMAZING. We got the chicken teppanyaki meal, which comes with a choice of rice (I got fried/my husband got brown), a side of veggies, 2 shrimp, and a side of miso soup and a salad. It was so much food for such a great price and came packaged perfectly and was still steaming hot. An absolute must-try if you need a quick, warm, delicious delivery! read more

My friend took me here for some sushi. I've been here few times actually. For sushi and hibachi. They have some unique sushi selections. I opt for dancing dream roll. It's a spicy scallops and crunch with yellowtail, salmon and tobiko. My friend opt for spicy tuna. They are very good, though to me they are not spicy at all. We are also order gyoza and shumai. I love the gyoza. I didn't do the shumai because it has shrimp and I'm sensitive to shrimp. Lastly we ordered mochi green tea ice cream. I really love mochi ice cream. I like gooey mochi and combine with ice cream inside it's just simply the best. Though the food is good and all, my favorite sushi place is still Ichiban. I can't wait until they are open again for dining. read more

Ah, Fuji Grill. One of the best places for 21+ birthday parties! For three years straight I had my birthday party here at the hibachi tables with 14 of my closest friends and family. It is always a fun time filled with laughter, great food, and saki bombs! My only complaint is that the show at the hibachi tables never changes. It's always the fire volcano, the rice beating heart and the drums. I would like to see the show change each year to keep it interesting. The food is really good and reasonably priced! I love the "free" shrimp appetizer and the soup and salad that comes with your meal. I would suggest ordering extra rice. It's only $3 more and you get double the rice to take home! You will never leave this place hungry!!! I would also recommend the sushi. I've had just about everything on their sushi menu and my favorite is the buffalo sushi. It has all of the delicious flavors of a buffalo chicken wing in sushi form. You can also order take out which is a great option for lunch as they have several lunch options available! read more

I have to start by saying the teriyaki chicken I ate was the most tender and moist chicken I've ever enjoyed; a true delight! Wow! Everything was good. The green tea was hot, as expected, but the miso soup was lukewarm and I heard the booth behind me say the same thing. Otherwise, everything was great, the sttaff was friendly and attentive. read more

I'll be honest this was a super weird experience. I am not even quite sure what happened at our dinner the other night. I feel like I walked in and entered the twilight zone. We usually have an annual winter getaway to an all inclusive resort and get our hibachi fix there. Due to covid we haven't really been traveling so we thought why not get some hibachi locally? Let me start by clarifying the breakdown of this review. -The food- 4 stars- we ordered the chicken and shrimp steak and scallop hibachi dinners. The food was good with the exception of the shrimp. Most of our tables shrimp was a little fishy and the texture was off. The scallops were fresh but needed a better sear to have been perfect. The rest of the food is good and what you would hope for. Portions were generous and flavorful. -The chef- 4 stars. He was talented and knew some fun tricks. Overall he was a good cook and wasn't responsible for the funky shrimp. He was a little snarky though, made several rude comments to the table. When he was playfully trying to throw zucchini into everyone's mouth he did angrily shoot a piece at my shirt. Glad it didn't leave a stain. He didn't do it to anyone else and it didn't feel playful. He had very good aim so I'm sure it wasn't an accident. He also had a water bottle that had a topper of a boy peeing. He squirted it into a little girls mouth. We were all a bit shocked, not appropriate. -The server- 2 stars- This was a huge disappointment, the waitress was so rude. She had to take our orders, bring and refill drinks and bring and cash out checks. Not nearly as much work as other restaurants. This woman didn't seem to care or realize she was working. At first she didn't remember who ordered what drink, ok no big deal. But then she didn't seem to want to bring refills, which were alcohol btw, which would have increased her tip. She ignored or forgot about several requests and seemed to be bothered to come back. Our table started asking other servers to bring us things, which luckily they were able to help with. At one point she even said out loud "I know, I'm terrible." Which would usually make me feel bad for someone but she didn't seem to care or to be trying to improve the situation. When we got our checks she accidentally put my Truly on someone else's check. In another restaurant this would be fixed and no one would remember it had happened. Here she explained the snafu and apologized but didn't offer to fix it. Once I realized what happened I asked her to fix this and add the drink to my card. She said I'm sorry and once again didn't offer or seem to want to make the change. She told the other guests it shouldn't be a big deal, it's only another $5. At this point everyone was over it and wanted to leave. -The ambiance- 1 star or less- I'll start by saying most hibachi is memorable the first time you go, then it's usually the same. The people in the restaurant aren't that memorable because you are there for dinner and a show. This was my first visit to this restaurant and it was shocking. When we walked in we realized it was very busy. After being seated we noticed it was a bit rowdy. It was a Friday night at dinner so many people needed to let loose a little? After looking around further some of the other guests looked dirty, like they didn't bathe, wash their clothes or wipe their kids faces before they went out. It has to be bad if you notice this when you are out to enjoy yourself. People seemed to be careless and the restaurant was a bit messy as a result. When I went to use the restroom another worker was finishing up and said to me "I'm glad I came in here before you. Someone threw up all over." This is super gross and like I said it was about 8:30, late dinner time. This place was full of families. I'm not sure who was going that crazy!? The stranger part was the server didn't seem shocked, upset or that phased that this happened. I get the feeling it might be a common occurrence. I definitely wouldn't recommend it here and I won't be coming back. Too many weird things to say they had a bad night. I heard better things about Dao. Next time I'm in the mood for hibachi I'll go there. read more

We did hibachi - and the food is always good there. It's always a little salty, but I think it's supposed to be that way? The veggies are always fresh, the chicken is trimmed to zero gross crap on it, the steak and shrimp are good quality. My issues are service ... never asked for a refill. the grill guys still wear those stupid cowboy hats - they should have the shogun warrior hats or a sushi chef hat. The menu's are greasy and disgusting. There are boxes piled up in one corner ... just looks tacky. The attention to detail is not there. read more

My husband and I have been going here for years. It was where we had our first (blind) date. Not a lot of sushi options in the Southtowns. We were disappointed to see how far they have fallen. The first table they sat us at had a makeshift smoking pipe under the table. We pointed it out and moved to the next table. They never removed it. Then we ordered saki. They were out of both types we ordered, so we chose two different ones. When they brought it we didn't get the small porcelain cups that you would normally get. We got plastic drink cups. Same thing for the soy sauce. Plastic cups. Can't sit at the sushi bar anymore because it's become a Togo station. Super cluttered, right next to where we were sitting. The server was very pleasant and the food was good, but I don't think we will go back read more

Fuji Grill II is one of my favorite restaurants. I usually go with a group from my work every couple months and every time I leave thoroughly satisfied. One thing to note, I've only even eaten at a sit-down table and have not had a hibachi experience at Fuji Grill II. I usually get the Sashimi Deluxe, which contains 18 pieces of assorted sashimi. The fish is always fresh. The salmon in particular is so buttery smooth I often wonder why Fuji Grill is able to provide such a superior taste and texture compared to other Japanese restaurants. If you're hungry and adventurous, I recommend going with the Omakase, which simply means you name a price and the chef will dream up some fantastic sushi creations not often found on the menu. For dessert, I really like the Exotic Bomba. To be honest, I think they just buy it frozen, but they do a really good job of dressing it up with chocolate and whip cream that it makes it worth it and I always look forward to getting it at the end of my meal. I also like how they treat their regular customers. Go often enough and they will go above and beyond to give you a fantastic experience every time. They may treat you with complimentary sake or edamame or a delicious seaweed salad. It's the little touches that really make you want to recommend the restaurant to your friends and family (or in my case to write a glowing Yelp review). read more

Fuji Grill II - Sashimi Deluxe - Japanese Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Made a reservation for 6:30, checked in at 6:25, restaurant was overbooked. Waited for an hour, it was insanely crowded and nowhere to sit. Hostess kept disappearing and no one could find out wait times as a result. We ended up leaving and passed a group whose reservations were for 6. Really disappointing and frustrating experience, especially for the person whose birthday we were planning on celebrating there (hence why we made reservations). read more

Worst bartender in the world works here. My review somehow gets removed? Last time I checked Yelp is designed to give my opinion /review. So don't I have the right to freedom of speech? My experience was so awful on Monday evening, April 25 for a big birthday party and I'm giving my review on my experience. I was forced to pay for drinks that weren't made property and that we were NOT happy with. The bartender was so disrespectful and rude it was unbelievable. She embarrassed me in front of my party and told me paying for the drinks no matter what. Our food was excellent and our sever was awesome. I would definitely never order from the bar again, absolutely horrible service by their bartender. I spent a TON of money here and was literally told "you are paying for this drink no matter what". I have never in my life seen customer service like this. Next time, taking my party elsewhere. read more

Fuji grill is a great place to get value for your buck. While most people come to celebrate some event and choose to sit at the grill for the show that is Hibachi, we opted for one of the side tables. You can get the hibachi without all the fan fare and faster too. Out first food came within 5 minutes of ordering. The sushi is some of the better sushi I have had in our area, not counting Wegmans. It is fresh and delicious. The hibachi steak was delightfully cooked but did lack flavor. A little Wasabi from the sushi cured that. The rice was great. I ordered a side of noodles to mix my veg in. So good. My shrimp were a little over cooked but tastey. Also they have a pear martini on the menu that is so good we stopped at the liquor store so I could make more at home. The only bad thing is the noise. Every time I have been here no matter what day of the week, it is packed. This lends to a very loud atmosphere and it was hard for us to talk, ven with the little curtain closed, which were not helpful at all. If you are looking for a quiet dinner this is not the place.. It was a great birthday dinner....even without the drum. read more

This place has a lunch special mon-sat for sushi which I always get 3 rolls for $10 and it comes with miso soup. Very good and reasonably priced. Otherwise the rolls are about $5 each. Great hibachi as well if you are into that kind of thing! I always see people having a blast when the chef explodes flames into the air and squirts sake into peoples mouths. Seems fun but I like to eat without theatrics haha If you are coming for dinner, expect to pay $30-60 for a filling meal. Quality is pretty high and the decor and environment are great! Very clean bathrooms btw read more

Fuji Grill II - Out of Control Roll - Japanese Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Food is always good- service was pretty slow. We seem to always get Peyton- who is really a great server. I felt bad for him because I ordered Sushi and it was so backed up that our Hibachi meals came, we're eaten, and cleared before the sushi arrived, which we had to take to go because everyone had finished their meal before mine had come. It wasn't the servers fault and he was very attentive but when you go OUT to eat- you don't want to have to get your meal as takeout because it came after everyone had already eaten. We definitely won't go back on a weekend. read more

I walked in around 12:00pm for lunch. The establishment was much bigger inside, and I was surprised by its size upon walking in. The size is similar to that of a chinese buffet. I was seated right away, no waiting. Afterwards, people starting coming in for lunch. The table was cleaned but I had noticed water mark stains on it, and the table legs were a little wobbly. As soon as I was seated, a waitress came over for my drink order. Since I am an avid Coca-cola drinker, I learned quickly that they served only pepsi products so I skipped soda and stucked with water. The lunch menu was a pretty good deal (2 rolls for $7, or 3 rolls for $10). I picked the 3 rolls, which came with a miso soup...but I added a salad with ginger dressing for an extra $1. Service was quick. Soon after the waitress walked away, she came back with my soup, salad and water. 5 minutes later, my rolls arrived. I had ordered a spicy yellowtail, spicy salmon and spicy tuna. My rolls were not made with pieces (nor chunks) of fish. Instead it was more grinded up fish with tempura groundings in it. I was very disappointed, as I ordered raw rolls, and I did not want anything fried in my food (but that is just my personal preference). Ambiance: this is a hibachi restaurant so expect there to be noise, people cheering when the chef entertains his table, etc. In addition, the music over the speakers are more of a pop or hip hop music. Pros: Service is VERY quick, good for lunches, Extremely affordable, $12 was my bill (plus tips), Waitress is pleasant. Cons: There were no issues really. I just did not like my rolls, as I am very particular about having sushi completely raw. And furthermore, they serve pepsi products...again, those are my personal preference. read more

I have been to this restaurant 5 times and have tried to like it. The first time was good. That's the only positive thing I can say. The food is always so undercooked that I think the chefs might actually eat this garbage too, resulting in them getting the runs constantly and having to shart their brains out before they finish cooking it. It's entirely possible that they're actually serving me their sharts. I like tempura as an appetizer and it is always so undercooked that it basically tastes like wet sponges covered in lukewarm cornflakes. This time I asked our server, Tina, to have our tempura well done. She barely spoke English so I asked her to have them cook it longer than usual. She nodded in Chinese. I ordered a double mojito and received a drink with less alcohol than O'Douls non-alcoholic beer. The appetizer and the main courses (seafood udon with miso soup) came out at the same time, approximated 7.6 seconds after we ordered it and we're expectedly undercooked. The udon was always acceptable but this time it had so little seafood on it I think they split it between 8 plates like they were rationing food after the apocalypse. The udon noodles were about as firm as forgotten spaghetti and the vegetables were near raw. The miso soup was missing the miso soup. I wanted to drown my sorrows in more "cocktails" but our "server" never came back and was likely studying for some exams or also sharting her brains out with her coworker. The only other server there, who I will call Princess Leia, gave us to go boxes and our check and told the adjacent both she was going on break and that the bus boy would be taking care of them. I was astounded. Yeah the tempura always sucked mega balls but at least the service was decent and the entrees were ok. Last time I was here, the bartender was so drunk that he was dropping stuff all over the floor and couldn't recognize a bottle of sake from a picture menu that another customer tried to order. He also called me Jake, which is not my name. He was a complete mess and needs professional help not only for his drinking problem, but for his lack of fashion sense. He also needs a new tattoo artist. I think the next time I go out I will literally pick a random place out of the phone book without looking and then tell them to order for me. I've had better service from the IRS. Maybe I just need to find a decent strip club and eat there... at least it will smell just like today's meal. This is the first time in 15 years that I didn't tip. Hopefully Tina passes her exams and her college is already paid for. I'm not sure what's more fake, the positive reviews for this place or all my ex girlfriends telling me they finished in bed. It's a toss-up. I know this will get taken down for being the most honest review ever, but at least I tried. Maybe I'll see Tina again one day when she's my doctor. -written while I'm shattering my toilet read more

Food and service is consistently top notch with a fun and vibrant environment. Some of my favorite sushi around western New York.

Came here on Saturday for lunch. We ordered 2 bennito plates. We enjoyed our meal. Will come again. My only knock against this place was that the prices on our check were more than what was listed on the menu. Consistently on our drinks and food there were discrepancies.
