This is by far the best Sushi spot on the island. I recommend the holiday roll, California roll or spicy tuna roll. They always have very fresh sushi and meat. Although sometimes when an order is picked up it isn't as fresh, but i've never had a problem while eating in the restaurant. read more

This place is great. A simple atmosphere, friendly staff and complimentary items definitely score this place a three star rating off the bat. But it was their amazing rolls that swung it into the four star range! Ordering the Kelmon roll from their specialty menu was the highlight of our meal. This place was just down right surprising! read more

Very nice experience! Came on a Saturday afternoon, expecting it to be very busy. Pleasantly surprised it was steady and we were seated promptly. The appetizer is a favorite. We ordered another. I had shrimp hibachi and my husband had chicken. The soup, salad and food arrived in perfect timing. Cooked very well. Ashley waited on us like we were her only guest. Water refilled and deserted offered. This is the 3 location we've tried. It is just as good as the others. Clean and peaceful atmosphere. We recognized the hostess. She's always friendly. Will definitely come again! read more

I ate in the restaurant. The dish I received was not what I ordered. I told the manager and her response was rather shocking. Instead of apologizing she claimed that they had a video of me ordering the dish. I laughed because; 1) I had not ordered the dish; 2) the video claim seemed dishonest. Of course they never produced the video. If you are going to claim to have a video, you should produce it. As I was leaving they said that they would give me a discount "next time ". I took this as also being dishonest as they did not offer me any kind of coupon. I do not believe for a second that if I ever went back I'd get a discount. That was something they threw out there after I mentioned that I was going to leave a bad review. And why would you discount my next order, but not the one I had just eaten? I had never asked for a discount to begin with, I had just asked for the dish that I had ordered ( which was never provided). The service is terrible and the staff lies constantly. read more

I love it. The sushi is consistently great, the service is always wonderful and the place is clean. Nothing more to add.

Food is average, authenticity is below average, and price is good. Just think of this place as non-specific-Asian diner that happens to serve sushi and Japanese-ish food and you may get the picture better. I was very disappointed with one of the waitstaff's service. I was waiting to be seated, at around 5pm when it didn't look busy, and was ignored for about 5 minutes. After i got a seat, the waitstaff didn't come back to take my order for another 10 to 15 minutes. I mean, these may be minor issues, but who wants to be ignored like that? The food is not authentic at all. Just a caution to those looking for authentic Japanese dining experience: for instance, I ordered Agedashi Tofu, and what I got was diced tofu that were fried some other asian style. It came with a dipping sauce, but was very bland and tasteless. Agedashi Tofu, like implied by its name, should have 'dashi(umani stock)' infused in the tofu, but it was not even close. The sushi was OK. I had traditional Japanese sushi(tako, ika, yellowtail, cucumber roll, clam, salmon, etc) as opposed to the "non-traditional" rolls with names like "Dynamite Roll"...In most non-Japanese-owned restaurants, the rolls seems to be a better choice. price is fair. But I will not be visiting this place again. read more

We have found Fancy Sushi to consistently serve high quality sushi and traditional Japanese (American style) dishes. Service is always attentive and courteous. Thanks to this consistency they are often slammed in the evenings - so be aware of this if you are coming here on a Friday night. Many times we have seen a line coming out the door and into the parking lot, so we phone our order in and pick it up thirty minutes later. They are equally good for take out as dine in. If you are on a budget, try their lunch specials, you can save a good amount! read more

Fantastic! Super fresh! The ginger sauce is not watery and freshly made! Sashimi is fresh and variety great! read more

Fancy Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Fernandina Beach, Florida

The service here is horrible. I made a yelp account purely to review this restaurant. On multiple occasions waiters have walked away in the midst of me ordering, snatched my menu right out of my hands, charged me for the "free" appetizers, and been blatantly rude. There's one girl there with bangs and blonde hair who is literally the devil. read more

Opted for carry out. Good sushi but the staff could have been more pleasant, not a great service experience.

Why you gotta be so rude! I rely on yelp and local suggestions for dining. Many said Fancy sushi had good food but horrible service. Boy were they correct! Made a reservation there for a large party of 10. Reservation was made 3 hours before arriving. We get there and find that we were directed to be seated in the back corner of the restaurant, in front of the restrooms in what appeared to be their storage room, boxes with stuff everywhere and even some personal stuff on the table that was set up for us. We told someone there that we were unhappy with the table, so rather than try to set up something else, they told us to go outside (it was partially raining) or wait 30 minutes. Of course, I don't need to emphasize the attitude and tone of all the employees there. Needless to say we left, and were very happy that we did. read more

Yuck! Room Temp Sushi. It looked like one of the pieces of fish was thawed in hot water, gray on the outside. The salad had a cup of ginger dressing over iceberg lettuce. Service was fine. Will not dine here again. read more

These people are on the ball. The sushi is fresh, appetizers and dessert delicious, and they give generous amounts of accouterments Ike ginger. They are very proactive, checking on you repeatedly to make sure you are pleased with your meal. They offer complimentary soup, salad, and sushi roll right away. Great place, especially for a town as small as Amelia! read more

Nice lunch specials menu. Free salad and appetizer crab stick tempura. I was visiting Fernandina Beach while in a business trip in JAX. Ordered the Fancy Roll and the steak and scallops grill special. Waiters were very attentive and the crowd was mixed. Surprising ambiance inside despite being in a strip mall setting. read more

Most of the fish was good along with the rolls, but the edamame was cold and ill prepared - Along with the fact that the scallops we ordered were prepared as a chutney rather than a recognizable sushi dish. They left out 2 of the rolls we had ordered and given us the wrong meal. Very poor compared to our past experiences there! Disappointed in the lack of care read more

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!!! After ordering online and paying online, I had to wait outside for ANOTHER 30 minutes before being handed my bag of cold sushi. Do yourself a favor... if you want sushi just go to Publix. You'll save yourself time and the food is just as good. read more

Best sushi on the island! Always fresh fish and good service the staff is very friendly as well

Not the best, but not the worst sushi I have ever had. The pictures on the menu show thick cuts of fish on a sushi platter & that is NOT what you will get. The pieces of fish for the sushi are very thin. This is not Yama Sushi in Portland, Oregon or Hide Sushi in WLA, or Sushi Capitol in Washington DC. Given the lack local competition, it is probably as good as you will find in this area. Friendly staff and fast service. read more

One of my top five favorite places to eat on the island. If your dining in you get a free holiday roll, clear soup [w/mushrooms and these crunchy things that turn into soft noodles] and for dessert fried oreos in tempura w/whipped cream and usually sprinkles and a cherry or two. I am obsessed with Fancy Sushi. I love the fried rice [they use sushi rice so it is just a step up from fried rice at a takeout place]. I LOVE putting shrimp sauce on it. The hibachi is amazing you get so much food it's unreal, lots of delicious grilled vegetables and the lo mein type noodles as well as if you order steak or chicken or both or whatever. It also comes with a salad on top of the free stuff you get when you sit down. I love the dynamite roll and highway 17 and the rock n roll. Even the white rice w shrimp sauce on it is so good. I went for my birthday once and they brought me red bean ice cream on a giant boat. It was pretty interesting, def. worth trying at least once. Miss Vivian is so sweet, I love her. read more

Wish I could give 0 stars. The customer service here is absolutely awful. During the scary times of corona virus, my family wanted to get takeout. They refused to give us any of the Normal extras including the soups and salads. They also refused to let us use a coupon because it was "dine in"... they were just so rude and completely useless. Wish I had just stayed home. read more

Very happy repeat customer. My entire family likes it here. Good and consistent food and service. We favor the Crunchy roll or Sashimi. Kids love the free holiday roll appetizer. I also like the seaweed salad. Will be back soon. read more

It's decent. Again, another non-Japanese owned Japanese restaurant. I think that this diminishes it's authenticity. I think the owners are Vietnamese or Chinese. The waitresses are very nice and prompt. The sushi was on the smaller side, but 8 pieces per order. I got the spicy scallop roll (not on the menu), the crazy roll, and the crazy tuna roll. The tuna inside the crazy tuna roll looked dark and not very fresh. The sushi and the sushi rolls were ok. I also ordered scallop fried rice. It wad basically white rice in soy sauce with the teeniest amount of egg. 5 scallops topped the rice. The scallop to rice ratio wasn't appropriate. This place satisfies one's Asian food craving, but not spectacular in the least bit. read more

Every time I go the food is always great and so is the service. I probably go once a week. Very nice and clean environment. Every time I go I get a free little sushi roll and I get offered fried Oreos before I leave. The prices are great for the food they offer. Highly recommend going here if you are in the sushi or hibachi mood read more

Excellent sushi. Great service. They start with a complimentary app and gave my wife a special cocktail. We ordered special lobster roll and loved it. I don't understand why someone rated it three stars. It's one of the best of many we have visited. Go. Free fried Oreo cookie sounds funky, but we loved it. read more

Went there with my bf for the first time tonight, must say Harris Teeter's sushi is much bigger and better in taste. We are travel the US and love sushi but wasn't impressed at all . read more

Absolutely LOVE the food AND service here every time! Wouldn't recommend the wine- but who goes to a sushi joint for wine?! Love the little extras they do and clean restaurant- will be back!!! read more

Recently discovered Fancy Sushi when another local Japanese restaurant was too packed. I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the Hibachi Chicken with Fried rice. Delicious! The chicken was cooked perfectly, veggies were just right, and the fried rice was yumm-O! Also came with noodles that were tasty, a salad, and a bowl of soup. Very good amount of food for the price (I had leftovers). read more

Not really as impressive as the reviews read. The sushi was okay, but not as good Ha-Na's. Perhaps if I had tried this place before Ha-Na, maybe I would have felt differently. The Hibachi chicken came with spaghetti noodles (yuck) which buried the vegetables. No amount of free food would convince me to go back. read more

For what it is, Fancy Sushi honestly isn't bad. The service is competent, they give you a free appetizer and free dessert, and the ambiance is OK. I just wasn't super bowled over by their sushi. It was rather bland and flavorless. I tried the fried eel roll as well as some nigiri rolls, and none of them really did it for me. Even the fried Oreo dessert at the end was flavorless to my palate, which takes some doing. For what you pay, there's better sushi to be found in the area. I can't honestly see myself returning. read more

Fast and friendly service with delicious food. There is sushi and more traditional cooked dishes. Something for everyone.

Loved this place! Sushi is fresh and tastes amazing! They gave us free crab appetizer, miso soup and a free dessert of Oreo tempura(which our daughter loved!) we ordered Ginza (very good), dynamite roll, red snapper roll(amazing), jb smoked salmon and cheese and Alaska roll. Fried rice was blah! They should stick to Japanese food... Over all great experience.. Must try while visiting the island read more

I'm not a sushi connoisseur with sushi experiences over the globe or anything, but I've tried about 10 sushi places in North Florida and think this is the best. Every roll I've tried is delicious. I also love that they give you a holiday roll, soup, and fried Oreos free of charge. 6 months ago I would have given this place 5 stars. Around the time they remodeled, almost all the staff turned over and every time we have gone it's been horrible service. Food is still good but the servers forget about our drinks, forget our soup, forget the holiday roll... It's always something. And we have eavesdropped on other people complaining about similar things. If they fixed the service I'd be thrilled. read more

After four visits, with each experience getting worse, we said good bye tonight and will never be back. Check in was an international nightmare. Hostess and obvious manager had a language barrier issue and hostess had no control of check in or seating process and demonstrated experience level far below what's necessary to handle the position. We left and still wanting sushi, went to the Ritz, probably spent more than 2 times as much but were treated with respect and experience and had a wonderful time with family. read more

This place was fun and the food was pretty good too. We shared quite a few appetizers and then shared a couple of the rolls. My husband enjoyed the attention the waitresses gave him. He thought all the complimentary things they brought us was for him, I don't have the heart to tell him they were bringing it to the other tables too. When we return to Amelia Island we will visit Fancy Sushi again. read more

Consistently good sushi. Great place to get your sushi fix with a large menu of Americanized sushi rolls that are full of flavor. Small clean restaurant in a shopping strip type area. Waitresses are funny and friendly. Not fancy at all - very casual - and very good! read more

Best sushi I've had in a long time! Very fresh and reasonably priced. The sashimi pieces are very thick- they don't skimp here. Very nice staff. The waitress said that she noticed "a leak" in our saki carafe and brought us more at no charge. Save room for the fried Oreos at the end of the meal-they are not to miss! read more

The high expectations from all of the good reviews were met and this place did not disappoint! The lunch specials were fairly priced and we got a delicious free appetizer. The service was indeed very fast and my family left happy as can be! read more

My favorite go-to sushi and Japanese restaurant in Fernandina. Their food portions are great and the value is amazing. I got a chicken hibachi with soup and salad and fried Oreo cookies for only $8! Sushi rolls are priced right, though specialty rolls are priced a bit higher. Staff is also very attentive and quick which always make my visit great. read more

Delicious! Rice is not too sticky ingredients taste fresh. Must try the shrimp tempura!

I am blessed to live in a community with a large Asian population so my standards for Japanese, Chinese, Thai and Korean restaurants is pretty high. Fernandina simply doesn't have any good ones at least at present. That said, Fancy Sushi is passable, albeit pretty Americanized. Emphasis on cooked foods and rolls versus traditional raw sushi and sashimi. Decent service and nice atmosphere. read more
