Fujiyama Japanese Steakhouse

This place had some of the best and most diverse sushi offerings around. And I am sad to report that we tried to go this past Wednesday and it is closed. There is a sign in the window about some vegetarian restaurant coming soon.

I went here for the first time late one night when I was having my sushi craving. The restaurant is beautiful inside with numerous etchings and writings on the tables and walls. There were children running around, and it was very family friendly atmosphered. Not stuffy at all.
My food came out in order, not allll at once which I hate, and after I ordered each came out presented rather nicely.
The owner kept checking on me as well as my waitress. I really enjoyed the sushi. Seemed very fresh.
I personally dont like seaweed wrapped sushi at all, and they had it just the way I like it!
I will definately be going back:)

THIS IS A BEST JAPANESE RESTAURANT IN CARY. I HAD A GOOD TIME AT THIS RESTAURANT. EVERYBODY IN MY FAMILY LOVE THIS RESTAURANT. MY SON GOES TO BRIARCLIFF ELEMTARY SCHOOL IN CARY. THEY DONATE 15% SALES TO THE SCHOOL PTA AND THEY ARE TRYING TO MAKE A FOUDATION OR DONATION TO THE SOME CHURCHES IN CARY.

My wife and I wanted to try something new the other night. We had been going to a different sushi place for 8+years and decided to try a different place to make sure we were not "missing out". We went in and were amazed at the space inside! it is a huge, very nice restaraunt. It was all down hill from there. Very slow service and very average food. I guess when you get $1 sushi you get $1 quality. Sushi is like gas. There are several levels of "sushi grade" meats. This place is obviously using a low grade! Guess that explains why the restaraunt was almost empty. I would not recommend this establishment at all!

I am a native-Japanese. I know good sushi. I went into Fujiyama about a week ago on a Saturday night with my boyfriend to pick up some take out because the other sushi restaurants were PACKED. This place seemed nice and we heard it just opened so why not give it a try? I know why.
Well first, I went in about 7:00pm and there were no tables, except for a few employees eating in the front. I waited for about 15 minutes until someone came to assist me. The sushi I had ordered was completely wrong but I accepted it anyway. When I took my first bite I sensed a strong fishy smell that is only emitted when gone bad. They were small portions and the "fantastic" $1 sushi was not worth it.
Maybe they're not overcrowded like the other places because they are unable to compete.
Needless to say I will not be returning and I would advise real sushi-lovers to go somewhere else!
