    Shrimp and salmon
    Dani S.

    Came for dinner tonight for my son's birthday. We did make a reservation just in case. We were a party of 8 and I waved to make sure we had enough room. I did show up late for dinner but our server got a couple orders of edamame for the game l table. I thought that was kind of her. My family did order their meals and sushi. I didn't want them to wait on me, I know everyone was hungry. Soup and salads were being brought out when I finally arrived. Our server took my order when she was finally ready. To be honest, she did rub me the wrong way when she approached me. She was frazzled but that was on her own. I didn't rush her knowing she was trying to get everyone else squared away first. All I had was a side Greek salad early this afternoon so I was starving! I got shrimp and salmon for dinner. It came with either soup or salad, my hungry self was starving so I got the soup and also ordered a side salad. I knew my food was going to take a minute to prepare so I got a ca handroll to hold me over till my food was ready. My miso was hot and savory! I love that they don't skimp on soup portions. It was so good! I didn't wait for it to cool, it was so hot i didn't care. My ca handroll was tasty! Lots of crab and avocado. I did do less rice cause I didn't want to fill up on the handroll. My salmon and shrimp came out hot, fresh from the wok! It was my first time eating hot food here and I'm happy I did! It came with a ton of veggies, the shrimp was plump and the salmon was perfectly cooked. The teriyaki sauce wasn't overwhelming. It was a fantastic meal! We ended dinner with a huge plate of fried bananas for my son's birthday. They played a happy birthday song for him. The fried bananas were soooooooo good! It was topped with chocolate, sprinkles and whipped cream. It was the perfect dessert. My son also got a little gift from the restaurant. He got a water thermos with the prettiest cheery blossom design on it. It is rather feminine but I'm sure he'll find some use for it. I thought that was really kind of them. Happy we thought of this joint for my son's birthday. Sushi was a win win for him. My food was legit. And our server did a great job taking care of us once the water settled and everyone was taken care of. I look forward to coming back soon.

    #5 for 2023 After a super early flight into Boise I was starving. Doing my Yelp search I saw a handful of sushi venues. I settled on one that was recommended by my driver. It was only a 10 min walk from our hotel. With an average rating I was a little reluctant. That turned around when we walked in. Place was busy with a few tables left for seating. We were greeted warmly then escorted to our table. The menu was extensive. I settled on the unagi don buri and agreed to splitting a snowball, "Snow crab mixed with spicy tuna, spicy salmon, onion, tobiko cilantro and layer with avocado on a bed of miso Japanese sauce." This was super delicious. When they brought the unagi don out I was surprised again. It looked more like a giant steak. The skin was tough but the unagi was plenty tasty. Being more than I could eat I brought half to my better half. There were a few people wearing masks. A hand sanitizer was very visible at the register. I definitely want to come back to try their creative dragon rolls.

    I was so lucky to get to try this place out during my visit to Boise. My uncle who's lived in Japan is a complete sushi iceberg, and we go nowhere else. I had to have the Godzilla road now I had many other roles and my cousin, to the number of different items the service was incredible!!! The spicy dragon roll was my favorite, but Godzilla you have to try!!! OH NOOOO I SAY YOU HAVE TO GO AND TRY GODZILLA!!

    Problems with seating: (LOUD INAPPROPRIATE TALK ABOUT WORMS IN POOP FORCED TO SIT NEXT TO IT DESPITE MOSTLY EMPTY PLACE) Our waitress had a bob cut and wore glasses. We greeted her warmly. Told we had to sit down next to a very loud table talking about pet poop parasites and dog anal grooming for 45 mins that could be heard thru the restaurant despite the fact we asked to sit elsewhere and the rest of the place was almost empty. Our order: (SPECIFIED DIETARY NEEDS IGNORED AND CONCEALED IN FOOD CAUSED MAJOR HEALTH ISSUES & PAIN FOR ALMOST A WEEK) The waitress asked for our order as soon as we sat despite not even getting menus in our hands because we were still sliding into our seats, then she hovered over us asking every 10 seconds for 2 minutes for the order. It was rude and we felt rushed. As soon as we put in 3 roll orders and acool green tea and waters she snatched the menu from one of us and tried to take the other so I pulled it away saying we might want more food other than 2 rolls and an appetizer. We ordered a Linda roll, mild no spicy scallop hand roll, and shrimp tempura appetizer with waters and a cool green tea for 1. Food given opposite of dietary needs: Due to medical issue I can't eat spicy foods & said this to her & I asked for a roll nothing spicy just scallop hand roll. I took a big bite and was in immediate noticeable distress and trying to flag some help from the waitress which saw me and walked away. The roll was so spicy it caused my mouth to burn, instant intestinal pain, and I looked inside and found it was so full of Sirachi hot sauce the entire inside was bright orange! Thanks to this, the next day I had to drive a 450 mile trip with explosive diarrhea and stopping every 20 minutes to use a bathroom even after taking medication for it and having severe abdominal pains from being provided large hidden amounts of hot sauce which is the opposite of my dietary need I explained when ordering! I sat there for 45 mins in a lot of pain and was for 5 days! It would have been okay if they listened or if I could have seen it so I could return it but the spicy sauce was rolled concealed into the food and seaweed wrap! The shrimp tempura appetizer came with 2 pieces of shrimp and 4 tempura vegetables. The squash's thick, rock hard rind left was on which the chef should have removed. It came with a sauce so watered down it had zero flavor and was transparent brown, not the regular way it should have been. Nothing to drink: (NO WATER EVEN AFTER ASKING SEVERAL TIMES) To make matters worse, the waitress only brought one water for 2 people and it was 90% ice cubes! 1 sip & gone before we got food. I sat there in distress for most of the visit. When she was told the issue with the food and we asked for 2 waters she rolled her eyes and walked away then sat down to play on her phone a few tables away! We never got any waters despite asking many times or any more food despite both myself or the other party being hungry. She would not come to our table despite trying to get her to even though she was aware. As soon as 2 items were being eaten the waitress took the last menu so we could not order more food and had our receipt to leave ready. My ordered cool green tea was so hot that I could not pick up the cup after 45 minutes even after so many ice cubes had been added to it that it was overflowing! I pointed out to the waitress the issue when I got it and many times after and she just told me to add more ice! There was no room for it & I was out of ice! Instead she told me I have to wait for it to cool and drink it because ordered it! It was still so hot ice cubes instantly dissolved & I could not touch the cup without getting a burn! I was not going to wait in distress and pain because of her negligence with my food, while hungry as well as my companion being hungry still, with nothing to drink another 45 minutes to maybe be able to drink a tea like she suggested to me because she did not being me the cool tea I asked for initially and because she delivered it so impossibly hot to consume & would not give us anything else! NO ACCOUNTABILITY OR RESPECT SHOWN TO CUSTOMERS It is unbelievable to me how rude the waitress was to us, how she gave food opposite of dietary needs, would not bring us water to drink or a tea safe enough to pick up or drink, or how management just rolled their eyes when I tried to calmly explain what happened so they could address it. The person's response to my telling them, was to snicker and walk way! We felt rushed and I left in internal distress due to their lack of adhering to my conveyed dietary needs. My daughter left hungry and ate more food from elsewhere after we left! They had no problem charging us for the dangerous tea or the food they served that made me sick going against dietary restrictions. We left and will never be back!

    Fujiyama, my guilty pleasure! Nowhere else in town can you get sashimi and sushi so fresh. Would think I was in a coastal town if I didnt know better! Being a regular, the staff always remembers me, and greets me with a friendly smile. Service today was on the ball! In around 5 minutes my sushi roll and sashimi entree came out, even before my starter salad! My sashimi deluxe entree came with 15 delicate, melt-in-your-mouth fish slices in five varieties: snapper, salmon, white tuna, fatty tuna, and albacore. Each piece was heavenly! So clean tasting, like fresh from the ocean. Even the snapper, which is my least favorite was still delicious. It's a tougher, more muscular fish with a slightly briny taste, compared to the fatty tuna which is almost buttery, not unlike eating a prime cut of marbled kobe steak, with no toughness and a pure, oceany flavor. I also ordered the Capital roll which was filled with spicy salmon and topped with eel, scallop, and drizzled with spicy sauce. The rice inside was fresh: warm, soft, and moist. The fish tender, and the sauce balanced the flavors of the fish. My unexpected and very appreciated treat was a seaweed salad topped with rice noodles, crab stick, and thinly-sliced octopus marinated in a sweet soy dressing and topped with furikake seasoning. The furikake added a slight crunch with its sesame seeds, seaweed bits, and a little dried chile. It was a nice balance of squishy, chewy, crunchy, salty, and sweet. While I could have, and wanted to eat more, I opted to wait until my next indulgence at Fujiyama!

Like 3 of us wanted refills on drinks, so he came back three separate times because he saw one cup empty, asked if we wanted a refill, and walked off before anyone else could also say yes. Other than that we had no complaints and left the restaurant full and happy! Already planning the next dinner out.

For this style of sushi, it delivers. Service was friendly and attentive. Staff checked in regularly and were quick to help with special orders or questions. My only real critique is selection at certain times. When the restaurant is not very full, the conveyor belt can feel a little limited. That said, this is understandable. You cannot reasonably keep every option circulating if there are fewer diners, and made to order options help fill the gaps. Overall, good sushi, good service, and a fun experience. A reliable choice locally and one I would happily return to.

Parking was easy (big lot), and when we walked in, the conveyor bar wasn't too busy and the food was already making its way around. We usually order a roll right away when we go out for sushi, but here you can sit down and start grabbing plates right off the belt, which was super fun. They don't have a liquor license, but they do offer beers. Each plate comes with 3 pieces, so it's easy to try a bunch of different rolls without overdoing it. We even asked the sushi chef what was coming next and they were super friendly. If it were a little busier, I think the belt would stay even more full, but everything we had was fresh, tasty, and great quality. Overall, a really fun experience, over all I think we spent roughly $70 for two people, all the sushi, two miso soups, and two beers (1 large beer) which is on point what we usually spend when we go out for sushi. We'll definitely be back!

I have never dealt with such atrocious service & their Sushi was subpar at best & that's being generous. Right out of the gate, it was a total disaster. The waitress brought absolutely nothing to the table--no utensils, no ginger, no wasabi, nothing. You know, the standard basics that literally every other sushi joint on the planet drops off on autopilot? We had to literally request every single item just to physically eat our meal. Then came the food--or whatever you want to call it. I specifically asked if I could swap tuna for yellowtail and asked about getting what I actually liked instead of just settling for "chef's choice." They completely ignored me & brought the exact opposite of what I ordered. Nothing we got was correct. My guest ordered a lobster and fish roll, and they handed her a plate of literal, unidentifiable mush. There were no actual pieces of fish or lobster to be found anywhere in it. Just mush. And the scam they pulled with the ikura was unbelievable. I ordered two portions, which is supposed to be four pieces total, which again is commonly standard at any other Sushi restaurant. Instead, they brought out two pieces. When I pointed it out, the manager actually came over to our table to argue with me, insisting I was going to be charged full price for half the food. Literally $5ea for 1 piece of Sashimi that tasted like shit. Outside of the painfully incompetent service and the manager's garbage attitude, the fish had no flavor, They didn't even bring out all the food we ordered, but we were so fed up and disgusted by that point that we just paid the bill and walked out. I don't know if this is how they run their business every single day, but it was bad enough to warrant this warning. There are plenty of incredible sushi spots around here. Do not waste your time or your money at this absolute trainwreck of a restaurant. I guarantee I will never step foot in this place again.
