Fujiyama

Amazing sushi! The staff was very accommodating and friendly. I tried the spicy salmon rolls. Really delicious, my only complaint is that they didn’t offer a lot in the meal because they were so good. My family did the hibachi part and the guy that cooked their meal was vey friendly and tried to keep everyone in a good mood.
I’m hoping that we can make a visit more often. Their prices are very reasonable compared to other hibachi places that we have been to and I would definitely recommend to anyone that is looking for good food and nice night out

My boyfriend and I sat at the sushi bar on a Sunday evening. Their menu is quite large with a nice selection of Japanese hot/​kitchen items, like katsu don and seafood soup. My seafood soup was plenty and hot, but I still want to try the katsu. The Dragon Roll was presented beautifully and we ate all of it. We ordered chicken teriyaki to go because we loved everything so much, but too full to eat anymore. The atmosphere is clean and slightly posh. Fuji Yama was very pleasing for the sushi snob (me), so I’m sure we will be back again.

LSU roll, hold the hair! Seriously?! Hair in my sushi roll? That is not okay! I will NOT be back. This is an indication of the cleanliness of this restaurant! I was so disgusted by my experience! Management did little to rectify the situation, a sorry was not even offered!

The food is very flavorful. We enjoy the Lover’s Special which is Hibachi filet mignon, shrimp, chicken, and scallops with rice & veggies. It comes with a garden salad & a soup. Both tasted fantastic. Everything is so tender and tasty. The scallops were melt in your mouth tender. The filet was prepared just right. My wife likes medium rare & I like medium, and that’s what we each got. The chef was very good on the hibachi not only with his cooking skills, but also with a great show & funny jokes. The quality is top shelf. The sauces (ginger & yum yum) are perfect, not watery. We also get the spicy crab roll for an appetizer. The roll was well prepared. The ginger was very fresh with wasabi that was good & strong. The wait staff was attentive without being intrusive. I highly recommend Fuji Yama!

Not bad at all. I realize this isn’t a glowing endorsement, but I also don’t want to discourage anyone looking for decent sushi on Unilocal Slidell.
Everything is AOK– ambiance, better than you’d expect from a suburban sushi restaurant (though it would be 10x nicer if they could dim those bright lights a little). That said, maybe they are proud of how spiffy the place is? I mean, clean, yep, they’ve got that down. Gotta love that. Still, I don’t love the feeling that I’m eating in a hospital.
Service is good. Our waitress was really nice and attentive.
Food is on point. Not a ton of veg options, but pretty standard for what you’d expect in a Japanese restaurant. Hooray for veggie gyoza, though! Because I’m paranoid, I thought mine might have had pork, but maybe those mushrooms are extra chewy? I hope so. I’ve had a restaurant make that mistake before. There is a section of veggie rolls and nothing too exciting there– the typical avocado, cucumber, oshinko and «AAC» (avo/​asparagus/​cucumber). I don’t blame them for not getting too creative with veggie sushi (is there really that much demand for it here?), but I don’t give them extra points either. That said, my boyfriend dug his rolls immensely.
Nice selection of sake, including a sparkling variety. Love it!
Why three stars, though? The prices are just so dang high. I don’t expect to drop 100 bucks on sushi in the suburbs (I mean, I left hungry). If I’m spending that kind of dough (app, two rolls for me, miso soup and three rolls for my guy), I want to be a little more in love with the place, y’know?

Awesome spot! Best hibachi place we’ve been to in Louisiana so far. The food is great, and the servers are normally very attentive. Coupons are mailed out frequently, and you can find them on local flavor as well. Can’t say enough about the quality of the food here!

Not impressed! Not impressed at all! Will not return! Server was not attentive, food was expensive and disgusting! We had an issue with one of the rolls, the server would not take it off the ticket. Two people $ 62 bucks! Very disappointed!

This is the first bad review I’ve written but I just had to say something. Perhaps the worst sushi restaurant I’ve ever eaten in, and I eat sushi often.
Service today was terrible. I was seated at a table without silverware but with a dirty washrag on it. It was 10 minutes before waitress took the order, and it was very quiet. Had to steal napkin and silverware/​sticks from table next door after salad was served. Lunch specials (3 rolls, miso soup and salad) consisted of puréed fish in sauce, no solid pieces in the roll. Looked like repurposed scraps or leftovers. Tempura items were soaked in oil, very heavy breading. Waitress was clueless, even other tables were waiting ridiculous times. Table next to me asked for a manager, asked her if it was usual to wait 15 minutes to have water glasses placed. Instead of apologizing she made excuses for the waitress, said she had other tables (me and one other). Other waitstaff had to do her job for her, and when they did she seemed to act as if that was normal, and that they could just continue to do so. Finally waited 15 minutes for her to drop the check.
Subpar food, poor service and management. Restaurant seems to be clean, and it was not expensive therefore not just one star. Go somewhere else.

Best in Slidell hands down. Sushi, hibachi, customer service, value and quality can’t be beat. I highly recommend giving it a try. Tiger roll is great and although I’m not a fan of fried rolls, the the BMW roll is awesome. Not sure where the bad reviews are coming from, I have traveled a lot, NY, Chicago, SF, Dallas, Tampa and many other places. Fuji Yama holds its own with the best but at a much more reasonable price. Great fun on your birthday too, I would suggest bringing someone there to celebrate their birthday, telling the staff secretly about it and let them have fun with your guest. Bring your camera too!

The female hostess here is rude. I have tried to eat lunch here on three separate occasions. If you refuse to sit at the bar and are a party of one she states you must wait even though there are empty tables available. There seems to be a major service issue at this restaurant

Worst sushi in Slidell. Very skimpy, overpriced rolls. Squid and saba nigiri (sushi) was dry… not fresh at ALL! This was my second time there with the same outcome. Never again!
I hear their hibachi is ok though
Can’t say from experience though.

Love the food! Sushi is usually poorly put together but other than that, no complaints!

First off, the actual building is so nice and clean. The atmosphere is very calm and almost a little formal, but still casual. The food is pretty good ! The hibachi looks good and is entertaining (and if it’s your birthday, they sing this fun birthday song to you).
Sushi is fresh as far as I can tell and also tastes good. Service was okay; it was lacking a little.

Horrible place. Will never come back. Didn’t even get to eat the Hibachi cause they never started the grill and the manager wouldn’t let us move. Had to wait for another group to order. Poor management and made us pay for the two rolls we ate.

Had hibachi for two last night. Filet was prepared very nicely rare as we requested. Chicken was pretty tasty too if a little dry. But the shrimp which were placed on the grill at the same time as the chicken and remained on the grill for another minute or two were hard as rocks. Meal could have been better.
Plus when we left the hostess was so absorbed with her phone that she didn’t even look up to say goodbye.

Beautiful presentation! Food was good and the restaurant was very clean! I’ve placed 2 Togo orders here and they were very nice… I don’t get rice on my sushi and they were very accommodating of that. Love it… Definitely a place for date night!

You will want to take the birthday girl or boy here. You won’t regret it. Prepare for the whole restaurant to see you. Bonus points to you if you get up and dance!
The modern, clean, and well-​lit environment is an amazing way to spend some time with family. Have a lovely time. Delightful staff, and clean clean clean. :) I’ll be back!

I came to pick up take out. While I waited I sat at the bar and had a glass of red wine which was still on happy hour so only 3.00. But it kinda tasted like a 3.00 glass of wine. No other options. The atmosphere is really nice and the smell incredible! The hibachis were going and full of people while I was here so they must be good. Will try on another visit! Surprised that the prices were not so bad but average. Expected worse due to the expensive location! I just wish that had a wine selection… ok I’ll move on from the wine. Report back after I taste the the food. I had two specialty rolls and two regular rolls. All were delicious but I enjoyed one of the specialty rolls much more then the others just my taste not that it was bad. Will definitely come back here. Miso soup good too.

Went for lunch here today and was so shocked at how great the food actually was. Had the
Dancing Dragon Roll and my lunch companion had the Fujiyama Roll and they were the best sushi rolls we have ever tasted. Was so night actually brought ½ of it home for later. Wish I could give a higher rating. Going back for hibachi lunch next. OMG…

So far. SO GOOD
Had the chopstick and the fork ready. LoL.
My wife can’t use chopsticks.
Waitress are very attentive. It tools us almost 30 minutes to order. On the phone the entire time dealing with work. But still the waitresses are on top of their game. Had the fry wanton looking deal. Can’t think of what it’s call and it’s just DELICIOUS! .
So fat it’s great. 1^st time here it’s great.

Un japonais (subi maki et tempaniaki mais pas yakitori) à slidell, bien pratique en revenant des swamp tour.
Je né peux juger l’ambiance vu qu’à 14h il était quasi vide.
La formule bento du midi à 11 $ est plutôt pas mal, raviolis+california+un plat à choisir+soupe+salade
Bref, bon et pas cher.
