Fumiyama has become my regular spot on Route 35, whether I'm in the mood for hibachi or sushi. The…read morechicken hibachi comes out generous: glazed teriyaki chicken, noodles, fried rice with peas and carrots, and a pile of grilled zucchini, broccoli, onion, and mushrooms. It starts with the classic clear mushroom soup and an iceberg salad under a thick, gingery carrot dressing, which I always look forward to. The sushi is just as good. My takeout combo had a nice spread of nigiri, including salmon, tuna, yellowtail with scallion, and a silver-skinned white fish, plus a tuna roll. Everything was fresh and neatly cut. For a strip-mall spot, it punches well above its weight.

Rolls are the quality you'd get from any NY bodega / deli. Fish was not fresh. Rice was dry. The Japanese entrees were not any better. The batter on the tempura was very thick.

Although I thought we'd see more of a show for dinner, the chef cooked everything well. I tasted the food not just sauce-spices. I really liked the tuna roll I got, also tasted very fresh.

Compared to what I could have had "dining" at nearby Monmouth Racetrack, this was a meal fit for an Emperor. An easy five stars.

It took forever to have our order taken, and while she was taking our order, she took a phone call. She could've brushed it off til we were done but she didn't. We each ordered a sushi roll to start off the meal and we each ordered a bowl of tonkatsu as our mains. My friend's sushi came out first, then our ramen, then my sushi roll. It didn't come out one after the other, they came out pretty spaced out. That annoyed me. The sushi rolls could've come out together. The ramen flavor was ok. The pork was not melt-in-your-mouth like most ramen pork. The egg was perfectly cooked. The noodles had perfect consistency. The broth was ok. The place has some age to it and only has a few tables. It does get busy so I guess it's good enough for the area.

My family was exploring and I really wanted something savory while in the area. I saw "sushi…read moreburrito" and was intrigued. It seemed a safe choice (we're allium-free vegetarians) and I was luckily right, for the most part. The place is cute with a little gift shop (this squishiest, needoh, and little toys) to the side which I was not expecting and the rest was the restaurant. They have an open kitchen, do poke bowls and drinks including boba. Plus mochi ice cream, roll ice cream, and other sweets. You place your order at the counter, pick your table, and they'll bring out your food. Sushi burritos are NOT officially on the menu but you essentially use the same section as DIY poke bowls. Same price regardless of bowl or burrito. You just pick and choose and make your own which I thought was fun. The tricky part is the sauce. They have a good selection, but the lady did not know what the ingredients were, which was... disappointing. Didn't ask the kitchen either. We ended up going with soy sauce, which was given to us in a cup on the side. The burrito is nicely sized. I asked for a number of things and you could taste them as you worked through it but it's impossible to taste everything at the same time. But it's not throughout the entire length of the burrito. It also doesn't have any additional seasoning aside from items like oshinko (pickled, radioactive yellow radish... it was thinly sliced and I couldn't see it but I did taste it when I got to it) or things bloomed their own flavor like mango so the sauce is recommended. Soy sauce was perfect, but I really wanted to try the Honey Wasabi sauce. Anyway, the burrito was good! But it was also $17. Ouch. Tofu doesn't cost that much so I did think it a bit much? There's an option for NO protein which is a little cheaper so maybe that would have been better? Good place to go to for a savory bite. Would be better if I could get fancier sauce and there was better knowledge of ingredients. That in itself makes the place iffy for the entire family. One of my kids has multiple food allergies.
