So, the only time I come here now are either for weekend lunch specials(and that’s kind of rare) or for a quick take out of their Thomas roll(like I did recently a few days ago). Here’s the breakdown: Service is always pretty decent. The tables are typically clean. If you get a house salad, they leave jugs(and I do mean jugs) of their honey miso and ginger dressings so you can pour as much as you want(or as little!). Food-wise, I usually get their lunch special bento(where you select any 2 items from their menu + a soup/salad). I like to get the salad and sushi/sashimi combos. The bento is pretty decent for the price. Otherwise, my fav roll right now of theirs is the Thomas roll(though it can be a bit salty, just an FYI!). Otherwise, it’s deeeelicious. I’ve also tried their pork katsudon, but was not impressed. :((My #1 spot for pork katsu currently is a tie between Kampai and Sushi Ko — both are MMM delicious.) So, why the 3-stars? For me it’s a combination of price and quality of food and ambience. Oh, and they charge 8% for taxes instead of the 7%. They claim that it’s required by Miami-Dade county, but they’re the only restaurant that I have been to recently in the West Kendall area to charge that extra 1% and pass it to the consumer. The extra 1%(Homeless and Domestic Violence Tax) is only obligatory for those restaurants that A) serve alcohol on the premises and B) that bring in over $ 400,000 worth of receipts in a single year. I know 1% isn’t a big deal, but just an FYI. I am also not sure they’re charging the 8% due to obligation. Thought that was a little shady.

The only place to go for sushi in the Kendall area. Great service, great selection, great sushi. Friendly staff and high quality fish combine for authentic Japanese sushi.

Absolutely love this place. Tonight was my third time here. It’s become kind of a ritual now for Friday nights to spend time with my daughter, as she loves sushi as much as I do. As soon as you walk in you are greeted with warm Hellos. The service is outstanding. Staff is super attentive. Hot towels are brought to your table to clean your hands. Plenty of seating available. There’s a nice secluded table to the left that seats about 5. This table is our preferred table, as its private and gives us an opportunity to disconnect. There is a wide variety of sushi rolls. Our favorite so far is the Crunchy Spicy Tuna Roll. My daughter loves the Dragon Roll. The seafood soup is pretty good too. My son is not too crazy about the chicken fried rice. It has a different flavor, not like your typical fried rice. I think the specialty here are the sushi rolls. The banana tempura is delicious. A perfect desert to balance your palate. Overall this is a great place for sushi in Kendall. I definitely will return and may even become a regular.

This place has charm like no other. The staff are so lovely, considerate, caring. This place feels like home. Food is delicious. I used to live walking distance from this place, I miss that so much! Now I visit whenever I can.

My favorite place to grab sushi. Always friendly and the food is always fresh and delicious. If you visit you absolutely MUST have the sushi! My favorite is the St. Thomas roll, but honestly, everything is good and I have never left disappointed. Also try the Takoyaki, it’s good and not something you get to try at every Japanese restaurant.

I have gone to many Japanese/Sushi restaurants and this is probably one of the worst. Lack of flavor and presentation. Service although was good, but I would never go again.

I’ve been coming here for more than 20 years. The sushi is «amazingly fresh» and the service is really good. Try the«Kia san-sai»(squid) Delishhh.

Fujiya is my favorite sushi place. The staff always remember me and are always very nice and attentive. If you’ve ever been here you’ll notice on your first visit the showers of «Hello, Welcome!“s you’ll receive on your way in and«Goodnight, Thank you“s on your way out. They are the sweetest! GREATSERVICE. Without an ounce of attitude or inconvenience in their tone one can call in an order just 10 minutes before closing and they will be happy to prepare it for you.(I’ve had to do that on a couple occasions in the past) If ordering for take-out, be sure to specify if you prefer low sodium soy sauce. Most places(including Fujiya) serve regular soy sauce by default. I really appreciate that they NEVER charge more for brown rice! Woot woot! Here are my favorites from Fujiya; * «Pascal Roll» * «Crunchy Spicy Tuna»(NOT to be confused with the Spicy Tuna. Be sure to say CRUNCHY first… it’s a completely different roll!) Oops *House Salad — when dining in they bring you the bottles of Honey Miso Dressing and Orange Ginger so you can poor it on your self. Awesomesauce! *The sashimi tastes fresh and is served in good-sized portions. Unfortunately, not everything can be perfect. I ordered the Chicken Katsu once. Although the chicken was a nice portion and was perfectly fried, the sauce was entirely too salty. I squeezed the juice out of the fresh orange garnish to sweeten it. It helped some. I also didn;t enjoy the banana tempura because it was under fried– very pale looking and the batter wasn’t seasoned at all. :/ Don’t forget they are closed all day on Mondays and they are closed daily between 2:30pm and 5:30pm :(( Overall this is a great place to come alone, with friends, with family, or even on a casual date. They don’t have any outdoor seating but they have a good amount of seating in their small space. Check out the cool group table to the left when you come in! Oh and don’t forget to ask for the separate sushi roll menu. They have several more options there.

This seems to be a popular lunch spot in the area on weekdays, and is quiet during dinner time. You’ll never have to wait for a table. Fujiya can be a real hit-or-miss experience — at times the sushi is exceptionally fresh, while others you’re hit with the stale fish smell right when you walk in. One visit in particular, the friendly server thanked my group for our patronage about 80 times during our visit … It was that dead in there. It’s cheaper than nearby Ruson and Sushi Sake, but it’s also older and leaves much to be desired. For a quick to-go order or a no-frills sushi night without a wait, Fujiya is your place. If you’re looking for ambiance, keep looking.

GREATSERVICE. Seriously THE nicest people anywhere. And the Sushi chefs are so cute. They all always male you feel so at home here. very good sashimi and sushi. Try the Crunchy Spicy Tuna with krabstick added. The best! The house salad is delish and they bring out 2 dressings for you to serve yourself!(honey miso and orange ginger both super good) The Pascal roll is also really good. I’ve enjoyed a glass of plum wine with a combo dish and taken home leftovers. Such a great sushi place in Kendall. I love Fujiya! (Located in the plaza with the Taco Bell)

Walked into this packed restaurant on a Sunday night at 7 p.m. and was instantly greeted by a nice server across the restaurant. She pointed to a table that was close to the door, but it was hard to get around because the restaurant is tiny and the tables are very closed together. Didn’t get menus for a while, but drinks and hot towels came fast. Our server didn’t take our order for at least 15 minutes, but I don’t care about stuff like that. I enjoy my husband’s company, but I mention it because I know this is important to some. Food came out kind of slow too and tasted okay. I was reading the other Unilocal reviews and looking at the photos and got excited this may be a good sushi place around this area… and I was disappointed. Not bad. Not good.

This place is amazing! I’ve been coming here for so many years and I’m never disappointed. I always leave with my belly satisfied. The service is excellent each time. They always greet you and they always smile. All the staff speaks Japanese! That is so awesome. Age-nasu is so delicious. Their sushi/sashimi alecarte are always fresh. My favorites are the uni, toro, o-toro, amaebi, conch, Octopus and eel. I recommened the SP1. It comes with selections of sushi, sashimi, tuna rolls, and shrimp tempura and vegetables. It also brings soup or salad. I always select the salad because of their dressing. The miso is so delicious! It is homemade too.

3.5 stars. I’m a big fan of sushi. And this place is above average. Had dinner there tonight for the first time. All the sashimi was fresh. The service was good. Sushi chef didn’t say a word to us, but it was all good. The server is half Japanese and Cuban, she was nice. Over all it was good.

Fujiya, im my estimation is your typical Izakaya type restaurant conveniently located in west kendall. They are the real deal, 100 percent Japanese menu. The owners are Japanese and Korean. The decoration is reminiscent of the typical Edo Style seen in Tokyo. They have a nice selection of sakes. I usually go there for lunch on the weekends and see the usual regulars. They have an incredibly loyal client base. Now on to the food, to me the most authentic in the area. There are no mistakes when placing the orders for your favorites.

One of my favorite restaurants in Kendall. I have been going to this place for years but lately find myself coming here twice a week. The service is great and they are so friendly. You are greeted when you walk in and thanked when you leave. The food itself is always good and very consistent. They have great lunch specials and the sushi always taste fresh. One of my favorite dishes is the Udon soup or Mega 2 roll. There really isn’t anything you can go wrong with.

Wow, what a pleasant surprise. I decided to check this out after a follower Unilocaler mentioned that she comes here. My wife, 4 yr old, and I went this past Sat around 2:30pm and we sat at the sushi bar. There was a big party of 10+ in the side of the restaurant but besides them had the place to ourselves. In my opinion it’s really hard to screw up sushi. Only way to really mess it up is if the sushi chef is totally incompetent, seafood/fish is not fresh, or bad service. I ordered some edemame for the 4 yr old(She had Mcdonald’s for lunch). For appetizers I ordered 2 pieces of Uni for me, 2 spicy tuna roll, and a salad with ginger dressing to order. It all came out pretty fast. Uni and spicy tuna roll were on point! My wife is still a beginner sushi connoisseur, so I still have to order some beginner rolls for her, lol. I got 1 rainbow roll, 1 Miami heat roll(Had to we just wont the East the night before, dragon roll, and JB roll. I usually only order 3 rolls for us, but I ordered 4 to take some as an appetizer before dinner. They were all so good and fresh we at them all! If you are in west kendall, off of Kendall drive and 137 ave, check them out!

Entering the restaurant, its definitely looks like the family-run, homey style place it is. Nothing fancy, but the staff immediately greeted us from across the restaurant. Half the people there seemed to be regulars, and knew the staff well — which is always a good sign. It was. The sushi and sashimi was fresh, the rolls packed firmly, and the ingredients well balanced. My wife’s fish miso was rich and warming. We felt so confident, we ordered some tempura, and the shrimp were fresh and firm, the tempura wasn’t soggy or oily; it was perfectly crispy. This isn’t fancy sushi, it’s homestyle and feels like something you’d find in one of the older neighborhoods of Tokyo. The owner also takes her food into her own hands, as she is behind the sushi bar. We are definitely coming back.
