I had really high hopes that this place improved since our last visit, but unfortunately it's about the same. It's not horrible, but it's also tough to justify the cost. The food is not nearly as good as the famous Teppanyaki restaurant most people think about. The salad dressing is not very good, the soup was too salty, and the sauces were mediocre. The protein is almost as good, as is the fried rice. The chefs phoned it in a little bit, but the wait staff was very nice and attentive. We also got seated quickly. I just wish they did something different to justify the pricing when comparing against the famous Teppanyaki place, which they don't. read more

First time trying out Fuji Steakhouse and was thoroughly entertained with the chef and presentation. I came here with a friend and was a little worried seating without reservations would be tough. To our surprise, we were immediately seated. The place was almost empty, which is surprising for a Friday night. Their menu had an extensive list of options for teppan yaki, sushi, and cocktails. We both ordered a couple of bottles of Rihaku Dreamy Clouds sake and filet mignon and shrimp teppanyaki. Our teppanyaki came with salad, soup, rice, vegetables, and 2 piece prawn appetizer. The main attraction was the theatric presentation put on by our chef. There were towering flames, food being tossed up in the air, and even an opportunity to try to catch food using only our mouths. Our steaks were perfectly cooked and rice and vegetables nicely seasoned. There's a sauce that came with the steak and it was addicting. The meal ended with a brief pyro show where the chef set the whole flat grill on fire. This is a good option if you would like entertainment while watching your food being prepared. Service was excellent and our server consistently checked in and refilled our drinks. read more

The Fuji Steakhouse in Redmond is ALWAYS a fun time with GREAT customer service and such a fun ambience. We choose to bring our whole company there for a Christmas party every year and we can not say enough good things about the staff and how accommodating they are. We bring in about 35 people and they cook for all of us so quickly, refill our beverages immediately, and are so comical! This is an amazing place if you want to have a big group or even a double date - the chefs are usually hilarious and the food is delicious. The staff rave about how good the food is for a long time after the party every year! Thank you FUJI STEAKHOUSE for making your restaurant so fun and welcoming! read more

As a self-proclaimed Teppanyaki connoisseur, I can confidently say this place fires on all cylinders, literally. Our chef wasn't just a chef. He was an entertainer and magician! Every toss, flip, and flame kept me intrigued. If interested, the chef will toss a piece of zucchini at you to see if you can catch it in your mouth. After three tries I finally got one! The service was outstanding, and the food was perfectly prepared with great flavor. We got the Filet and Shrimp combo which came with soup, salad and rice. The Rihaku Dreamy Clouds sake was a great light sake to start with. If you're looking for dinner and a show, this is a great option. read more

Friendly service! but food is very mediocre for the price. The softshell crab was $15 and came with two pieces, all just batter and very little crab. There is a $15 per seat minimum if you would like to share entrees. Drinks were mediocre as well. We came as a party of 6 and each grill seats 8 - we did not know this coming in and were not told that random people would be sitting at our table as well (even a heads up would be nice). read more

Food wasn't too bad. Performance of the chefs seems like they are a bit bored with it. I suppose it's only natural if you're blowing a train whistle 2 or 4 times an hour. read more

Food was subpar. Chicken was dried out, you could taste the grill in the vegatables and rice, steak was ok. For the price, there are better options. Our chef was new to hibachi or to the restaurant, he didn't have much of a personality. Service was good that they refilled beverages regularly. For a Saturday night, the place was half empty. read more

Super quick and detailed service. Nick was my server and he was crazy fast from drinks to sushi bar to entree. Restaurant is clean and organized would totally recommend!! read more

The chef engagement with the table was fun! We had a chef on first night and he did a great job! The food was fine and portions were reasonable. Don't try a Manhattan cocktail. That was probably the least successful manhattan I've ever had. In summary, food was fine, chef was great, drink not good, staff were friendly and great service, but expensive. Definitely paying for the entertainment in the price. read more

Such a fun place. We went last night for a birthday. Food and service was fantastic. Love to watch the food being cooked right at the table.

Returning again for ambiance, service and food! It's always a great time with family members as we watch the talented chiefs prepare our meals. Kids are entertained and adults are fed well. read more

This was my first ever experience eating teppanyaki and it was delicious and so entertaining. We came here for my fiancés birthday and they went above and beyond to celebrate him. They sang him happy birthday twice - once during the cooking of dinner and the second time afterwards with free ice cream. They brought out several staff members banging a drum to sing him happy birthday with his ice cream. They even had him stand up and dance to it. My fiancé loved this! I will say though, I HATE attention in public like this so for me, this would've been too much attention for my birthday for my liking but if you like above and beyond, this is the place for you! The food was really delicious. I ordered the new york steak and chicken teppanyaki and that comes with a salad, soup, rice, mixed veg and two dipping sauces. I upgraded to get the fried rice instead of the white rice that it comes with and it was only $5 more. I also ordered the El Diablo sushi roll which was really tasty and not fishy at all. The cooking of the food was so entertaining and our chef did a fantastic job putting on a show and making delicious food. I'd love to come back for another celebration! read more

* Review is for sushi only. * Two of us needed to grab a quick lunch to go and came here for a couple sushi rolls. We initially thought of going to Musashi's a couple blocks away, but it was closed until dinnertime, so despite the higher pricing, Fuji became our only option for sushi at Redmond Town Center. I've always been curious about this place, so we figured, why not? At around 12:30P, only a few tables were occupied and one of them had the full teppanyaki show going. The host came over immediately and took our order. He said it would be about a 10-15 minute wait, which turned out to be spot on. Although this restaurant is known for teppanyaki, they do have a large menu of sushi options and specialty rolls. + CATERPILLAR ROLL ($18): Eel, crab & cucumber inside with thinly sliced avocado and unagi sauce on top. The avocado was perfect and I was glad to see it had more eel meat than fatty skin. Unfortunately there were so many bones in the eel! I know that the bones are edible, but I could feel them scratching my mouth and throat. While tasty, this wasn't super pleasant to eat. + LION KING ROLL ($18): Crab, cucumber and avocado inside, topped with seared salmon and spicy mayo. For the most part, I enjoyed this roll, although the salmon was barely seared. It was delicious and silky though, and I'd rather have it seared less than be overcooked. I didn't really care for the spicy mayo on top since it was on the sweeter side, but luckily the roll was not drenched in the sauce. + VEGETABLE TEMPURA ($12): This was a good medley of green beans, zucchini, onion, kabocha squash and carrot. They were super crispy and tasted even better with a dip in the tempura sauce. The onion rings were my favorite. Between the two of us, this was a nice light lunch. The rolls were a reasonable size and satisfied our sushi craving. In the future, I could see myself coming back for another one of their specialty rolls or trying the teppanyaki experience for a special occasion. 3.75 stars. read more

The food was bland and extremely expensive. $50 for a few ounces of overcooked meat, zucchini, and a little bit of onion. Why even ask how a customer wants their steak cooked if you are going to ignore our request? The cook seemed to dislike being there almost as much as I did. Adding to the experience was a non-negotiable 20% tip, though the server suggested I could tip more if I wanted. read more

Teppanyaki is always an entertaining way to experience a dinner out :) Was very empty on a Wednesday evening. Ordered: Scallop and New York Steak Teppanyaki combo ($44) Dragon Roll ($18) Spider Roll ($15) Quality was fine and the sushi was well made. Fun presentation. Very Polite Staff. Located in Downtown Redmond. read more

The food was below mediocre. Our table all ordered fried rice and it was very salty. The chef added too much salt and soy sauce. The only thing that was good was the steak (we got both the filet and NY strip). The service was absolutely excellent. I would not come back since the food was below average and it was not worth the money spent (about $55 per person). We also came Sunday for lunch and we were the only party there which was kind of awkward. It was kind of like ghost town. I don't see this restaurant lasting unfortunately. read more

My bf has never been to a Japanese steakhouse for teppanyaki before, so we choose this place for his first experience. We had reservations, but there was still a little wait. We started off with cocktails. I got the Mojito, which was pretty good, but seemed to be mostly ice. He got a Moscow Mule, and he liked it. For our teppanyaki dinner, I got the filet mignon and lobster and he got the filet mignon and shrimp. I thought we were going to need to order more food after, like maybe sushi, but our dinner actually filled us up. Food was good and cooked well. Service, including our cook, were very friendly. The food and the experience seems to be pretty much the same as all the teppanyaki places I've been to. read more

My teen son wanted to celebrate his birthday with friends at a 'Benihana' like place and Fuji Steakhouse was only place we found. The chef was entertaining, food great, lots of energy on a Sunday night. We had a reservation and were able to sit right away. Parking was easy. Servers were kind and attentive. Son & friends/family loved it. We ordered 7 meals for the 7 of us and were able to share. The thinly sliced steak was my favorite. Fried rice was good as well. I imagine we'll be back for other special celebrations. $50+ per person. read more

Food and service can be hit or miss sometimes. They also make me feel very rushed to finish my meal and leave shortly after the chef has cleaned up. read more

The food was pretty good, some in our group felt the chef was not too entertaining. Like the fried rice, chicken and thin steak that we had. Husband liked the ice cream dessert. Absolutely agree with Jeff that the Manhattan was not a good drink! Mine tasted watered down, and I did not feel it at all. You could tell that it was not full strength liquor. Feels like cheating to me since it was expensive. Get a beer! read more

Quality and portion size have been decreasing every year for the last 4 years. The hibachi/teppanyaki has been going downhill. The grill masters are putting less and less effort it seems. Could also be we got a bad one as the "show" was good at the next grill over from us. The other chefs had few tricks/skills. Ours tried the volcano that was only 2 inches high and let the whole grill on fire except the volcano. I ordered extra vegetables but I guess for $10 that translated to an extra button mushroom and a spear or zucchini. The grilled rice used to be plentiful and full of stuff. Now it is about a cup or cup and a half with maybe a baby carrot and half an egg. Go with at least 2 people or you might not get the fried egg. You get 7 oz of steak for the strip but at least an oz is a piece of fat the chef cuts off and tossed in the trash. Seriously, most of the fat was clearly taken off the meat but an oz that goes straight into the trash. The soup is broth and the salad has some kind of cheap jar dressing. The bar is the bright spot in a place that clearly has stopped caring about the food and show. read more

When you're a large group, there are limited restaurant options. We decided to come here since we remembered it was a spacious restaurant and was rarely busy from our last visit. The show was great (as usual) and the food was okay (a lot of oil and salt, which is expected). However, the share fee ($15) left a bad taste in my mouth since one person in our party has stomach cancer (physically can't eat much but wanted to join in) and they wouldn't make an exception. It was NOT mentioned on their website or their online menu. We would have never came if it was stated. Leftovers here leave a lot to be desired, so if you have a medical condition that prevents you from eating much, I'd skip. read more

Always enjoy coming here! A truly great experience every time! Kyle is one of the best waiters I've had and just great customer service all around. He made the best kamikaze and I can't wait to come back! Thank you Kyle read more

I wasn't surprised that it was pricey here as it clearly shows $$$ in Yelp! I was surprised that there wasn't much of a show and the food order was very mediocre. We ordered steak, scallops, and fried rice. It was rather bland to the taste and not memorable. I've had better Tepanyaki dinner experience and food. It just felt like old and phased out. For a Saturday, we got seated right away. No line. Staff was friendly. read more

The meal and service was great, the pricing was not. When ordering my meal I requested noodles instead of rice. The waitress said the price would be different, which I agreed to. I made the mistake of assuming it would be a small adjustment, maybe $3-4. I was surprised when the bill came to see that it was an $11 up charge! To substitute something that was free with my meal to a common replacement, the price increased by another ~25%! That really changed my experience from great to mediocre at best. read more

Extended family of 8 came for dinner on Thanksgiving day. Fantastic Teppanyaki place, great chef and service. Vibe of the place is nice but not pretentious and on point. Chef had some tricks we had not seen and was game to try them. That was cool because we've done Teppanyaki quite a bit as it's one of our son's favorite. Definitely will come back when we're in the area. Thanks! read more

A typical teppan-yaki restaurant. Which is to say, we enjoyed it very much ... this was first time experience for my wife. The cook was bit on a urethane side, but he did his thing with knife and food tossed everywhere. Both of us ordered New York steak (you get the steak, soup, appetizer, salad fried rice). The steak and everything else was cooked well (we asked for medium) and flavorful. Bit of a drive from Issaquah, but worth it. We will try it for the dinner. Bit too quiet during lunch. read more

Food was fine but I was super disappointed with the customer service. They offer zero substitutions for the appetizers or sides when you order one of the "dinners". Because of this, I ordered a "side" of filet mignon for $32 since it was a la carte and I couldn't eat many of the "dinner" accompaniments. No issue but then 5 minutes later, the server returns and says the manager won't allow them to cook any of our food via hibachi in front of us unless we order a full "dinner". This was very rude and it never said anything about this on the menu or website so it felt like an impromptu policy to get us to spend more $ on items we didn't like or couldn't eat. They said they would have to make the food in the back and bring it to us. So, I ended up upgrading to a full "dinner" and not eating most of the items that came with it as the whole point of this restaurant is the hibachi experience. read more

I mean, you come here for the flash, right? My friend planned my birthday celebration and we ended the night here (hey, 42, there's no more clubs or bar crawls for this oldie). We had a reservation, which I'd recommend, as the walk-in wait times sounded really long. Our chef was awesome, lots of flare and cool tricks. They really celebrate special occasions but prepare to get wet and to dance - specifically booty shaking. A guy comes out with a drum and suddenly the sake is talking and you're shaking your butt and dancing for your table (and the restaurant at large). It was a blast. Food was good. I got the filet mignon and shrimp with fried rice, because why not. I believe if someone in your group orders shrimp and you just get the steak, you'll get a couple shrimp anyway if you want it... or that's what I've seen so far at Teppenyaki restaurants. Salad dressing for the side salad was good - a creamy/zesty Japanese-style dressing that was all love and expect. The soup was like a beef, mushroom broth which was okay. This is a fun place for special occasions. Great for adults, but kids love the flare if you're thinking of a family dinner. Would recommend! read more

Fuji Steakhouse - Birthday celebrators - prepare to be sprayed! :D - Teppanyaki Near Me - Redmond, Washington

Everything here is super expensive, so I ended up ordering just a side of fried rice for $5. Others at our table ordered the main courses so we still had the show in front of us which was pretty cool to see. The fried rice was actually pretty good, especially with the two sauces that they provide you with on the side. However, I can't say I see myself coming back to get anything on the regular menu given the prices. read more

Fuji Steakhouse - Fried rice, soup, and salad - Teppanyaki Near Me - Redmond, Washington

It has been a while since we go to a Teppanyaki place so we decided to visit them. Parking is easy. Plenty of room at Redmond Town Center even on a weekend. You don't have to park far. There are electric stairs that get you right at their entrance. It is kind of dark. Just a couple of other parties. It is very nice yo get to see how they cook your food, show, and receive it hot. We ordered a teppanyaki. If each person doesn't order one, you will be charged $15. I ordered two makis instead. Plenty of food for 2 people :) Tge teppankayi will be served with salad and soup for that person. We found this fair because of the chef, show, and experience. Staff let us know all clearly and upfront. Even asking for garlic would cost $8 more. Chef was great! Entertained our kiddo. It was great. What I would give as feedback is they should be more around so we can order more drinks or dessert. We knew they lose at 2pm and they would reopen later on, but I think dessert investment would have been a good option. read more

We have been here a few times and while it's not cheap, we always enjoy the quality of the food and the experience. The chefs are fun and engage the table well. It's great for birthdays or parties too, fun atmosphere when all of the grills are going. Sushi is actually quite decent for Redmond, too. read more

Food was really good, but the cook instead of being entertaining, he was roasting the table and honestly inappropriate at times. Food is always a good, especially since they cooked a gluten free meal in the back, but definitely cautious next time about the crowd you bring! Prepare for good food, but maybe hurt feelings as well!! read more

I visited Fuji Steak House specifically for their sushi bar, so this review is not based on the teppanyaki experience. I went in really excited to have a new restaurant in Redmond Town Center but left disappointed. I ordered the tuna poki appetizer for $14, and the portion size was super small (see my photos). The tuna was also covered with a sweet sauce that I didn't think added much value to the dish. For my entrée, I went with the small sashimi combo for $22. These were the smallest cuts of fish, so I was not satisfied at all after eating this $22 entrée. They were able to make me a custom hand roll on top of this because I was still not full from my food. My friend ordered the Mariners and volcano rolls, which she liked, but also found to be pricey for what you got. There wasn't anything super special about them. I may visit again for the teppanyaki in the future at some point, but I can't justify going back here for sushi when there are many great sushi places in the area at much more reasonable price points. read more
