I am not from Indiana. I am from the Boston area. We don’t have any out our way. But we do have many hibachi places. This one is by far the best one I’ve been to. The food was absolutely delicious. If I could have eaten all of my food I would have but I was to full.
Best sushi on the Southside of Indianapolis! More expensive than any where close by- but for a good reason. They have some of the freshest sushi I have ever found in Indy. Their hibachi is good, but to me, their sushi is by far their best feature. I've seen some negative reviews about the staff, but have never had a bad experience with anyone here.
We were in Indianapolis visiting our sons and took them out to Fujiyama's for sushi--something neither of them had ever tried before. I'm proud to say they became instant sushi lovers! We started off with the miso soup which was delightful. The ginger salad was delicious--it had a yummy hint of toasted sesame. We ordered the tuna tataki and aged tofu as appetizers. They were both good, but could have been better--the ponzu sauce the tofu rested in had very little flavor and the tataki needed more sauce. The rolls were phenomenal: the paradise roll--coconut shrimp, almonds, cream cheese and more...so good, krusty krab roll--crab toasty crumbles on top of another yummy crab roll, sakuro roll--my favorite with shrimp inside and salmon with a yummy lemon aioli on top...rich and tasty. Check this place out!
Delicious and entertaining
I recently dined at this hibachi restaurant, and I must say that I was thoroughly impressed. The food was excellent! You could really tell it was of great quality. I had the filet mignon and shrimp, and my husband had the scallops. While the food was wonderful, it was nothing compared to the service! I have been here a few times and the service was just okay, but this time it was just outstanding! The servers name was Emily and she was very attentive. If we asked for anything, she brought it to us without hesitation. Our drinks were always full and she had an awesome attitude. I mean she was really on it. Our chefs name was Toyota, and he had us cracking up the entire time! He even made the fried rice look like sponge bob square pants. It was so entertaining! Overall, you could really see that Fujiyama Steakhouse has stepped up there game. The prices were higher, but at the end of the day, you get what you pay for!

Expensive, but pretty good. I've seen a lot of complaints about the service. When we went we had no issues with service, but we were also there at an off hour. There was only one other table in the entire restaurant.
The sushi was good and the food came out pretty quickly. The waitress kept our drinks full and the sushi chef offered us any extra sauces we wanted. The produce all seemed to be very fresh. While I did enjoy the food, I still think the price was a little steep. The hibachi smelled good but we did not try it.
They are pricey but arent all japanese steakhouses! We waited 20 mins past our reservation time, so no complaint there. We had one of the best hibachi cooks. Interactive and funny! The food was just OK tho. I have had worse and better at other japanese steakhouses.
Fun Time!. Had such a fun birthday party with my friends I felt like i HAD to leave some feedback! Our party had two tables facing each other seeing we had 15 people. Both chefs were pretty unbelievable in the tricks that they could pull off, it was awesome to watch. On top of that the food was really good! It looked like they were renovating where I think the bar and sushi bar used to be so we couldn't hang out at the bar prior, but I got a sneak peek and it looks cool so I can't wait for us to stop by next time!
I....Love,,,,This....Place
Never Gets Old. My mother used to take me here all the time when I was little, over the years there has been a few changes, but I think it just keeps getting better and better ! I literally love everything on the menu, from the Jazmine Roll, to the Edamamae, Filet and Chicken with an extra order of yakisoba! YUM. I love how unique Fujiyama Steak House really is compared to other places. I was told that they make their own fresh batch of dressing from scratch! The service is always great, everyone that works there is so friendly. When I enter Fujiyama Steak House, I feel like I'm entering a place where all employees treat each other like family. I HIGHLY recommend at least trying this place. && some other great news I just learned? Fujiyama is open for lunch on Saturdays & Sundays now ! :D Lunch price on the weekends!? This place NEVER GETS OLD!
Yum!. Me and my boyfriend were visiting Indianapolis from Chicago and decided to stop by Fujiyama to get dinner. We took a look at the reviews for other sushi places downtown and this was rated one of the highest. A little bit out of Indy but still pretty convenient to get to. My boyfriend ordered a chicken teriyaki dinner and I ordered a couple roles of sushi. Particularly recommend the Playboy and the Crunch Munch rolls! I was very surprised at the quality of the sushi. Its comparable to most of the really expensive restaurants in Chicago, only much much cheaper.
Good service, but atmosphere could use a bit of sprucing up. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Indy!

A hidden gem for sushi. We recently saw the LivingSocial promotion for Fujiyama's and decided to check them out. After looking at the website and their menu we were pleasantly surprised by the large selection of rolls that were available. We saw on their website that they had been operating in Indy for over 25 years, so we left with high expectations.
Since we're from Carmel, it was a bit of a drive down to the south side of Indianapolis. Our first impressions were pretty average. The decor was so/so, it seemed in need of some remodeling, but definitely conveyed pleasant scene. But we were quickly seated at the hibachi grill and served by a very attentive waitress.
There at least 100 other guests in the restaurant but the waitress we had was polite and attentive. For dinner we ordered the Hibachi chicken and steak and the Playboy roll and Soft-shell Crab roll. We frequent Benihana's for Hibachi so we were expecting similar quality and entertainment. To our pleasant surprise we saw some tricks that we hadn't seen before. I was very surprised at the quality of the food that we ordered. The chicken was very tender and the steak was cooked just right. You could definitely tell that the quality of the meat was very fresh. The real treat in our meal came when our sushi was presented. We were expecting traditional presentation with our rolls, but the Playboy roll came out in a tinfoil boat and was lit on fire!
The sushi was definitely some of the BEST if not the best sushi currently in Indiana. I would definitely say that it is comparable to other sushi paragons such as Sakura or Naked T-chopstix. Definitely a great experience! We'll definitely be back for half priced sushi on Mondays and Tuesdays!
Extremely good food. I have got the seafood combo as well as the steak and chicken combo. Both tasted great. Can be a bit pricey depending on your budget. Expect to spend $20 - $30 per person.
My husband and I live near Fujiyama, and get their Sishi rolls every week or so. The salad dressing, soup, and staff are simply the best. The staff remember my family and I each time we stop by. An excellent, quality place.
My favorite Japanese restaurant in the entire city. I'm not kidding. The salad dressing, soup, fried rice, and steak sauce are amazing.
My favorite Japanese steakhouse in the city. Been going since I was in elementary school. Salad dressing is the best and the basis on which I base others on.
I've been in the US for three months now, traveling and creating content. This week, I wanted to spend more time with my boyfriend's family, so they took me to one of the best hibachi restaurants. I decided to review it on my TikTok to show my appreciation and support for this amazing place. Don't be surprised by the price, as it's quite expensive for me, but it's worth every penny! I highly recommend coming here with your family to celebrate any special occasion, as I saw another table celebrating a birthday. They have THE BEST SOUP, the name is FUJIYAMA SOUP, I told the staff they have a good soup and I asked “Can I have one more?” and they gave me one. Everything was perfect. l definitely be back again!

Came here to celebrate the life of a dear family member. We wanted somewhere special that we have never been before. We were looking for an escape from the norm to reboot and recharge.
The atmosphere was mostly modern decor with some Japanese art on the front doors, waiting area up front, behind the Sushi Bar and the out walls. I personally prefer more where I feel like I am transported to another time and place.
The hostess seated us promptly and their was no wait as we arrived soon after they opened at 5 pm on a Friday. When she handed us our menus she pointed out the general categories for us to begin analyzing. The service from our waitress Shah was five stars and she seemed very knowledgeable and could talk in great details about every query we had.
The hot Green tea came with a pitcher where I was immediately able to refill my cup which I like to do. The house salad was simple but the ginger dressing was very good with only a hint of ginger which I prefer it stronger myself. Shah asked us what we thought about the dressing and said it was just freshly made which made me assume thy may be tweaking it based on responses. Even if not I love my waitress asking about my food because it makes me feel like they care about our experience and take pride in their hard work. The Sweet & Sour soup (house soup) was very flavorful I noticed while the mushroom was dancing on my pallet it was a perfect blend and balanced. Next was the main course of steamed white rice, Hibachi mixed vegetables (onions, zucchini, and mushrooms), bean sprouts, nine grilled medium sized shrimp and Teriyaki chicken. If you want to try this for yourself order the "Geisha Special" which are traditionally Japanese entertainers known for their skills in the art. In this context I interpete it as culinary art. The vegetables were great and the rice and sprouts were as one would expect.
Now for a few dissatisfactions. There was an unexpected longer than expected delay after we finished the house soup and salads. We didn't say anything but the waitress twice said it wouldn't be much longer. Her observations knew even while we remained silent that this was not good. It is not the waitresses fault if the kitchen is not ready no matter the reason. I felt frustrated by the situation and empathy for the waitress who was put in a very awkward position. She was dependant on another segment of Fujiyama and had to be the face of the restaurant to us the customer. Again she did more than her role and earned her tip with nothing withheld. When our order did finally arrive the portion size was more than I could eat and left with a to go box. The protein of shrimp and chick was neither bad nor good but just okay. Again this was a "special" on the menu and the price point reflects this too.
My expectations were higher than what was delivered from the kitchens timing and specialties. For these reasons I lowered my service rating to three stars where the hostess and waitress Shah deserved five stars. I also had to lower the food rating because of the above when the side items were worthy of a top rating. The atmosphere was rated on my personal preference and I understand for some it would be exactly what they want.
I would go back again but be more picky on what I ordered. Overall their were pros and cons which is what makes the world go around.
Excellent as always. Jamica is the greatest server. The food was wonderful. I dont like California rolls, so I get my Bento box without. It was only $30 to $50 per person cause we always order a crazy amount of food. It is very reasonable. Soooooo much better than Benihana. We go out a lot. This is our favorite place.
I had a good experience here. The sushi was good for the price, and the waitress was attentive. My only complaint is the visible dust on the light fixtures over the tables. But other than that it was good.
Has been our go to for Christmas Eve for several years now. Last night was a bit of a disappointment waiting for an hour past our reservation. I hope this doesn’t continue and the issue gets resolved. Would love to continue this tradition but really threw the rest of the night off. 5 stars for always great service, food and atmosphere. Hope to be back soon.
My fiance and I decided to go out on our last date before hearing our baby's heartbeat and seeing them for the first time, and we couldn't have chosen a better place. We didn't sit in the hibachi area but definitely plan on coming back to sit there and enjoy the hibachi experience they provide, but the seats in the general dining area were both cute and very comfortable for the lower back pain I've been having with pregnancy. The staff was extremely nice and helpful, and the food was amazing! I ordered a bento box and it was so much food for the price! I was scared that it would be super expensive, but it was surprisingly affordable for an appetizer, 2 meals, and 2 desserts. I was pleasantly surprised and very impressed with this experience and will definitely be going again.
We were seated right away but it was 5:00 on a weekday. We had the tempura calamari and dynamite strip starters followed by 4 rolls. We had the Sakura, yoshi, snow mountain and continental rolls. All very good. The continental one was outstanding!! We stayed just up the street and passed it on our way to the hotel and decided to try it. Being sushi lovers, we were NOT disappointed.
Food quality was excellent... as usual. I think they were overbooked and as a result were pushing people out like an assembly line. 1st time in 15 years of xmas eves here and saddened by the use. Cook was awesome and did a great job.
spot for consistently delicious food, amazing service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. I've celebrated countless birthdays and special occasions here, and each time has been truly memorable. The staff is always friendly and attentive, and the menu offers a wide range of options to satisfy every taste bud. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking an exceptional dining experience! My favorite meal is all their bento box!
This was my first time here with coworkers and we all had a wonderful time! Food was great, service was timely and there were many items to choose from. I am looking forward to my next visit!
Food was good. I myself like kabutos better, but that's just my opinion
Our chef was hilarious and put on a great show while making a tastey meal.
Server made sure my cup was always full and empty plates were taken quickly.
If you’d like to be entertained before dinner and watching your food cook right before your eyes served from the Grill to the plate this is the place! Food was great I would recommend the fried rice over the steamed rice but overall five star all around!! This is my girlfriend’s favorite place❤️
The bento boxes are a bit pricey but worth every penny. Excellent staff, very friendly. We eat here several times a week for a reason! Excellent sushi combinations.
Ok, I have never have Japanese food, but this was great! The wait time was like two seconds. Our waiter, and chef were very well trained and friendly! I got shrimp, steak, and white rice. Those were very good. If you have some extra free time definitely come here!
Wow! Excellent service, excellent food, excellent entertainment! Excellent experience! Our Chef, Kahn, was professional and funny. He cooked the food to perfection and our server, April, met all our needs. (It was our family Christmas get together dinner.) We've been here before b I t this visit was especially great. Thank you!
It was my first time, and it won't be my last to dine in. I had a great time watching my food getting cooked in front of me and enjoyed every bite of the shrimp and scallops plate. The employees gave great customer service. This restaurant is a hidden gem and I highly recommend it.
Had a reservation and had to wait 45 minutes to get a table.
Thank you for your quick response. The food was fantastic as always and so was the service. We will definitely be back.
10/10 would recommend.

If you have an occasion or a celebration you’re missing out if you aren’t hosting it at Fujiyama!! I can’t wait to come back.
