My waiter was super wonderful and answered my questions about the custom sushi options. I am not a fan of sushi with cream cheese, avocado, or cucumber (and most places have one or the other in most rolls). I appreciated that I could make the sushi my own. Not pictured here was a salmon roll topped with salmon roe (I call it mother and child lol). The eel was also delicious, and I can't wait to return for a visit one day.

We decided to try somewhere new last Saturday night and were told about a 30-minute wait, which is usually a good sign as the place was packed. They took our number and texted us about 20 minutes later when two seats opened at the hibachi bar. Grabbing those seats was the best decision we made as we were entertained by both the hibachi chefs and the sushi station all night. The chefs were interactive, friendly, and clearly skilled at what they do. Our waitress, Jennifer, was absolutely on point, accommodating, polite, and happy to offer recommendations that did not disappoint. We ordered the shrimp tempura, bagel roll, and spider roll for sushi, along with the shrimp and steak hibachi, which she thoughtfully split onto two plates for us without even being asked. The sushi arrived first, beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavor. Soup and salad followed, then the hibachi entrée , all timed perfectly so we never felt rushed or overcrowded with dishes. The shrimp was fresh, the steak cooked perfectly, and the fried rice seasoned just right with herbs and spices that complemented the entire meal. Every part of the experience flowed from start to finish. A return visit is already in the works this month. Highly recommend this spot and major thanks to the employees for being at the top of their game! Truly a 5 star experience.

The second time I did the same thing, but then typed add cheese as well so they hopefully wouldn't forget.. well they put cream cheese in the roll and shredded cheddar cheese on top of the roll?

Idk-- I may try it again but I'm pretty turned off after this experience

This place rules. I highly recommend it to everyone. First of all, they have the best edamame I…read morehave ever had by far. It may seem odd to mention that in a review for a steakhouse, especially when their steak is also absolutely stellar, but it is really that good. The hibachi chef was skilled both as a chef and as a performer and all the food was cooked perfectly. The prices are also very low for the amount of food you receive - $37 buys 10oz of filet mignon (which is already a better price than a lot of steakhouses) but that then also comes with a huge quantity of rice, noodles, and vegetables, as well as a salad and a soup. We ate our fill and then also had like a week's worth of leftovers. It's certainly not somewhere we can afford to come super often, but it's an excellent deal for what you receive. One thing to keep in mind though is it's really cold in there, presumably so that working with the hibachi all day can be tolerable. Since customers don't stand over the hot grill the whole time you should bring a sweater.

*To-Go Review*…read more Placing our order by phone, the quote for pick up less relatively fast. However, upon arriving the hostess/cashier, we quickly determined that there were missing items from our order. Debating the correctness of the order, I had to vehently restate what I ordered vs what her response was, before she'd admit her error. So I'm not only did we have to wait another 20 minutes to get the rest of our order filled. I was quite disappointed to see that they lump an extra 10% onto your final balance discretely, with no option to negate it. To rate the cuisine, the food was mid at best... definitely nothing to write home about. After the lackluster experience, I would not recommend this establishment.

Fuji Sushi - Solid Lunch Spot With Surprisingly Generous Portions…read more Stopped into Fuji Sushi for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by how relaxed the vibe was. Light crowd, quick seating, and the kind of calm that actually makes a midday meal feel like a break. First win of the visit: the sweet tea. Perfectly balanced -- not too sugary, not too watered down -- just that ideal Southern-style "ahh" with every sip. I ordered the teriyaki shrimp combination plate, and let me tell you... they are not shy with portions. I couldn't finish it even though I really tried. The teriyaki was solid, but the real star of the plate was the fried rice -- flavorful, buttery, and honestly good enough to stand on its own as the main dish. Overall, Fuji Sushi is a reliable lunch spot: generous servings, great fried rice, and a calm atmosphere. I'll definitely be back when I want a filling meal without the rush.

The presentation and atmosphere is very sophisticated. The person that put everyone together is Emily. She was so attentive and recommends the best dishes and sake. Coming from Southern California we are used to great sushi. However, this place is the epitome of a sushi experience.

For starters we ordered the Coconut King Salmon and the Popping Tuna. Both were delicious but the Coconut King Salmon was my favorite due to its uniqueness! For rolls we ordered The Luxury Roll, Drama Queen, Salmon Maki Roll (HH Menu) and Spicy Tuna Maki Roll (HH Menu). I would order all of them again. The Luxury Roll was extremely rich tasting and the Drama Queen was lighter with a kick. Norikase is now my favorite sushi restaurant in Jax (Oku isn't far behind it). Can't wait to come back!

So let me get organized with each visit I had. First visit - I had the Rosé Pearl drink. I can't remember what's all in it but it was divine! My sisters had other drinks which were not as good as mine. One had something with ube and the other something with 75 on the name. Sorry it's been a few months so I can't recall exact names. Then we had yakitoris. All of them were delicious, even the zucchini ones (I'm not very big on veggies ). Also had a sushi roll shaped in heart. Again, don't remember the name but it was yummy! Adding the pic here. I had the yakisoba and it was surprisingly a good portion for a small plate. Second visit - my husband's birthday dinner, mid March. Brought all the kids and father in law. We had edimame, more yakitoris, chicken karaage, miso creamy udon, another sushi roll. It was during prime dinner rush so our server was less attentive but got all of our needs in reasonable time. Third visit-highlight is the server. We were a larger party of 9. She was patient with all of us and remembered everything! Humored our requests for pictures. Even reminded us that tip has been included due to our large party. This time I had the emperor's crunch. I should've read the description closer because I didn't expect it to be a pork roll. It was still so good that my friend ended up ordering one for herself (I ordered mine as one of my apps). Also had more yakitoris. Someone had ruffle fries which was heaven! Each visit was satisfying for me. It's so good to see a place so busy, yet still manages to put out delicious, quality food and pretty great service. Kudos!

She provided amazing hospitality and her descriptions for the hand roll flight were immaculate. The food was amazing as well, really enjoyed the chutoro and otoro hand rolls and the seasonal black garlic tonkatsu. I love how affordable and approachable they put tuna belly on the menu, while you get to try a wide range of other usually expensive nigiri. The concept of diy hand rolls was really cute too. I thought the mentaiko udon could use a little more mentaiko tbh. But I loved the funky, almost sour cream sauce of the mentaiko. Good strong garlic flavor comes through as well. Vibes were immaculate, love the hanging lanterns and aesthetic of the restaurant. The open concept was cool if you sit at the bar and watch the sushi chefs. I love the projector displaying scenes from anime as well. They even have a Vero water filter which costs like $5K. Can't wait to come back again on an empty stomach and try more.

The server was nice, got our drink orders, and then came back for our entree orders. I love their soup here, super simple, but super delicious. When we ordered our entrees we noticed on the kid's menu they don't offer combos like they do on the adult menu. My kiddo had a hankering for both chicken and steak, so we ordered him the steak, I got the steak and chicken and gave him my chicken, and my husband got the steak and chicken. So typically when we've come here we love the food and the entertainment of having a hibachi chef. They normally make it really interactive and fun, this time around was a different story. Our hibachi chef was pretty lackluster, no throwing the egg, no funny quips about the rice or veggies. It wasn't really dinner and a show. One of my favorite items is the Japanese fried rice, because I like the crispy bits you get when it's cooked on the hibachi....no crispy bits. The steak was cooked perfectly, the chicken was flavorful, but disappointed in the lack of show and the rice this time around. I'm hoping this is a one off.

The broth was very flavorful. The fried garlic and garlic oil makes it even more delicious. I've never had an ajitama brulee before - this a marinated egg with a brulee topping (sugar torched on top). I thought it would be a bit strange bit it worked quite well. The fried chicken thigh is just a regular boneless, skinless chicken thigh. I dont know why I was expecting it to be battered like KFC or even like karage popcorn chicken. The pork chashu is AMAZING!!! So soft, meaty and tender. I would probably add an extra order of that instead of the chicken next time. Definitely worth visiting and returning for more.
