We were close by and wanted a good meal. Husband found this restaurant and there was no wait at 8pm. I ordered the beef sukiyaki because I like this dish. The service was friendly and food came fast, but I thought the food quality was just okay. For the price, I was really hoping it was better.
A solid sushi spot where I always feel relaxed and can take my time dining. FOOD: 8/10 The sashimi is fresh, and depending on the roll, it's either really good or not quite like what you'd expect from other sushi spots. I also love pairing it with sake to round out the meal. SERVICE: 9/10 Service is always standard and friendly. Everything also normally comes out in a timely manner, which makes the experience smooth. AMBIANCE: 8/10 The restaurant has a cozy, warm, and inviting atmosphere. It feels comfortable and relaxed, making it a great spot for a slow, enjoyable meal with friends or family. Overall, this is a great place for a comforting dine-in experience for sushi. I'd definitely come back when I'm in the mood for something warm, filling, and satisfying.
I haven't had a good hot bowl of beef sukiyaki in a while. Hot pot is not the same for me. Fuji Sukiyaki has vegetable, chicken, seafood, and beef sukiyaki. I ordered the beef sukiyaki, and it had strips of beef, tofu, vegetables, and clear noodles. The broth is made of soy sauce and sweet sake. It wasn't too salty or too sweet. The California roll with tobiko was just right. My pal ordered the chicken and he had no complaints. We came by about 12ish and there were a few people seated but no wait. A few more people and couples came in after us. They took our orders, delivered plates & utensils, and then our food. There were two waitresses and one sushi chef. We did not see the kitchen. It was an old-style Japanese restaurant, not very fancy. It's located on the other side of the railroad tracks from downtown so parking was easy. I would come back if I was in the area.
We came by here during the lunch hour on a Sunday. Parking was limited with it being downtown San Mateo, but still easy to find. I ordered the lunch bento and the rest of the group ordered sushi rolls and sukiyaki, which is what they are known for. The restaurant has a room full of regular table tops and a side room with private rooms for more traditional dining. The food was delicious, and overall we had a pleasant experience dining here.
For a table of two, we decided to share three rolls: the Angry Bird Roll, the Titanic Roll, and the Football Roll. All of the rolls were reasonably priced and felt like a great value for the quality. We were mainly craving sushi, and this restaurant definitely satisfied that craving. Each roll was fresh, flavorful, and overall very satisfying. The combination of ingredients in the rolls worked well together, and nothing felt overly heavy or unbalanced. We visited during lunchtime on the weekend. When we first arrived, it was fortunately not too busy, which made it easy to get seated and relax. However, as we continued our meal, we noticed more people gradually coming in, and the restaurant started to fill up. By the time we were finishing, there was a steady flow of customers dining in and picking up orders.
We loved our experience here! Went to dinner around 6 and was able to sit right away. Constant work is being done throughout this restaurant, it's great. We ordered the #2 boat which had teriyaki chicken, California roll, tempura, and teriyaki salmon. We also got an appetizer sashimi combo and the Honey Roll. Both SO good!
Had an early dinner at 5. Shared the boat dinner and dragon sushi. Everything was so delicious since I only had a banana for lunch. Fuji Sukiyaki never goes wrong! One of the best!
San Mateo has a big selection of Japanese restaurants, but we chose this place because it has sukiyaki on its menu. This place wasn't crowded around Saturday lunch time, and there were many tables open for indoor dining (they didn't have outdoor tables). There were tatami rooms in the back of the restaurant, but the sign said that you have to have a group of 4+ people paying $25+ each in order to experience the tatami room. We came here for the beef sukiyaki and that was the first thing that we got. The broth was slightly sweet from cabbage and mushrooms, and there were vermicelli noodles and slices of thinly sliced beef in the soup. The sukiyaki came with a bowl of rice, and you can sort of make a congee with the soup over rice. I'm a huge fan of soup, and so I really liked the sukiyaki. We also got an Osaka roll on the side. This had a mix of 4 different sashimi and slices of avocado. There was a bit of sauce drizzled over the roll which does not overwhelm the taste of the fish and avocado. This is definitely a good choice if you want more fish for your buck.
sometimes you just need a roll doused in sauce. service was quick, quite packed for a friday lunch.
Really good sushi, bento box, service is good, nice bright open space. We will come back again.
Came in on a chilly evening fully intending to warm up with sukiyaki ... then saw the whiteboard and never looked back. Food: We went hard on the daily fish board: Japanese tai, kampachi, Hokkaido scallop, aji, king salmon, blue shrimp, lobster, zuke, uni, plus a few comfort items for the kids. The toro/uni/caviar nigiri was the showstopper, although it's so buttery and decadent that just one piece per person was about right. The seared salmon belly disappeared instantly at our table; lightly torched, melty, and very easy to keep eating "just one more" of. Kampachi and Hokkaido scallop came as generous nigiri, and the Japanese tai with a little roe on top worked nicely as a lighter counterpoint between richer items. Blue shrimp was fun: sweet raw bodies with roe over rice, and the heads fried into salty little snacks. Lobster had sauce with a hint of heat and toasted almonds. For the "regular" side of the meal, king salmon nigiri with a touch of ikura was great, and the salmon sashimi and simple salmon rolls kept the kids happy. Tempura hand rolls, loaded with shrimp and avocado, was a good filler. Overall, it's a neighborhood spot that lets you build yourself a mini omakase, but is still totally family friendly. Service: We sat in the main dining room next to the sushi bar, ordered most everything at once, and they paced it impressively well. First plates landed within minutes, and then dishes kept arriving in a steady rhythm. Our server paid attention to how we were ordering: some things clearly meant for one person, others meant to share, and the plating reflected that without us having to explain. Empty plates disappeared quickly, water and tea stayed topped off, and the chef (possibly also the manager or owner) kept an eye on the flow from behind the counter. Attentive, efficient, never intrusive. Ambiance: The room is compact and fairly busy, especially with a steady stream of DoorDash/Uber Eats drivers cycling through for pick-ups. It was somewhat entertaining and really showed how dialed-in their operation is. There are tatami rooms off to the side, but since we were doing all sushi, having a direct line of sight to the bar fit the mood. Casual, lively, with a "local favorite" vibe. Value: Our tab landed around $500 pre-tip for a table (3 adults, 2 kids) that went heavy on board-only fish - on the higher end of a local Japanese restaurant. That said, portions for the premium items were sizable, the fish quality kept up its end of the bargain, and the service team fully earned the (admittedly ambitious) suggested tip tiers. Overall: Solid 4 stars. We'd happily come back, especially with a craving for king salmon, seared salmon belly, blue shrimp, and that toro/uni/caviar combo. Next time, we'll try not to get completely hypnotized by the board so we can finally see how their namesake sukiyaki stacks up.
Tonight, I finally had dinner with my family at this cozy Japanese restaurant in San Mateo--the one I pass by almost every day--that serves amazing sushi, tempura, teriyaki, and sukiyaki. The freshness of the fish, the delicious soup and rice, the generous portions of great selections served on the boat, the excellent service, and the friendly staff--this is our new go-to spot for Japanese cuisine. On behalf of my family, I'd like to thank you for treating us to a delicious meal after a long day and seeing us off with a smile.
Recently visited Fuji Sukiyaki for dinner and had an amazing experience! The restaurant has a cozy, authentic vibe and I loved the mix of trad and modern seating. I ordered a variety of dishes to try: - Seared Sake Toro Nigiri: This was a standout! The toro was buttery and had a nice sear and smokey flavor. - Ikura and Masago: Both were very fresh and had a nice pop. - Uni Nigiri: very creamy and sweet - 18-Piece Sashimi Combo: really beautifully presented and super fresh. Pieces were thick especially the salmon and tuna. Great price for 18 pieces. - Pink Lady Roll: roll was a balanced mix of hamachi, salmon, tuna, avocado, and masago. The soy paper wrap was a nice light touch I'll definitely be back to try more dishes, especially the sukiyaki and their specialty rolls. Definitely recommend! Pro Tip: ask about their tatami rooms for a more private experience.

I can't believe that I haven't tried this restaurant in the 20+ years that it's been around downtown San Mateo, but today was the day! We were looking for some light snacks & drinks to have before our Saturday night movie, and I finally came to try Fuji Sukiyaki. Nestled on the corner of Claremont & 3rd Avenue on the outskirts of the downtown food district, Fuji Sukiyaki is a nice, authentic, small Japanese restaurant serving good quality, reasonably priced, delicious Japanese food. The space itself isn't fancy, rather its plain & simple, and the focus here is on good Japanese food such as sushi, sashimi, nigiri, noodles, and comfort rice dishes. Everything tasted very fresh, portions were good, and service was polite & efficient. Ambiance felt casual, old-school, and no-frills, great for a light dinner on a time schedule. We started with boiled edamame & agedashi tofu appetizers. The edamame was some of the best I've had, it was nicely boiled, the beans had a nice crunchy texture & it was salted perfectly. The agedashi tofu was a generous portion, and the tempura dipping sauce and fish flakes were very tasty and perfectly seasoned. We also tried some Oshinko Maki (yellow pickle) and a Yam roll and they tasted very fresh with good sushi rice & wrapped in a salty Nori roll. I would definitely try more sushi here next time, given that enjoyed the taste of these two samplings so much. To wash it down, we tried the Yuki Nigori Lychee Sake that was a big, elegant bottle that gave us each around 6 servings of delicious & creamy sake. The taste was surprisingly good, it was rather thick, milky, sweet, and not too strong in the alcohol content. This nice drink perfectly washed down everything that we ate, and I wouldn't hesitate to order this $25 bottle again next time. Service was quick, professional, and efficient. Waitstaff walked around taking orders, explaining menu, and offering suggestions or descriptions when asked. The space is clean, airy, bright, and spacious. There is a main sushi bar to watch the chefs create their craft, a lot of tables to accomodate the crowd, and some larger party tables and even a big tatami room in the back with sliding screen doors, for private parties. The bathrooms were also impeccable. It took me 20 years to finally try this place, and now that I have, I plan on coming here more regularly. It is conveniently located, very accessible, and well-priced. The food, service, and ambiance are quick, casual, and simple, just what I like & look for in a casual restaurant to grab a few quick bites & drinks before embarking on nighttime plans & activities. Will be back soon! read more

Have had several great meals here recently. Their take home game is pretty on point too. I'm old school. I hate the idea of random booger pickers in filthy cars delivering my food. I hate the idea of a stupid ass iPhone app taking a cut from me and a cut from the business I want to support. I do what I've always done. I call Fuji Sukiyaki and I'm always greeted by a pleasant employee who takes my order. When I get there I chill and have a tea and read. I've never waited more than ten minutes and my food is always perfect. It's faster than Derp Dash and there are fewer fudge factors. The owner is always pleasant and the rolls are always good. Every thing we've ever ordered has been as described in the menu and has been tasty. Love this place !! read more
This place has a simple, old-school feel. The restaurant is divided into two dining areas, and we were seated on the smaller side. The tables and chairs were pretty narrow, so it wasn't the most comfortable dining experience. We ordered the Santa Barbara uni, baby lobster, ama ebi, blue shrimp, ikura, Dragon Roll, a combo plate with chicken teriyaki and California roll, and fried oysters. Overall, everything was decent, but nothing really stood out. The seafood didn't have any fishy or unpleasant taste, but I also wouldn't describe it as especially fresh or memorable. The customer service was friendly throughout our meal. read more

Bento heaven! My family is more bento box people than sushi people, so I'm always on the lookout for good bento prices/deals. This place is good! We got a three item bento box and my family was very happy about the portions and flavors. "Not too salty or dry." The space is not that small and has another section with more tables. Their sushi is good, just good. read more

Came here for Friday night dinner and got seated quickly. The restaurant did fill up later into the night. There is a main dining area with tables and bar seating and a slightly more private hallway area with booths. Chicken Karaage (3.5/5): The fry on this wasn't like the typical karaage I am used to. It felt a bit oily and heavy on the batter. The chicken itself was good. Pink Lady Roll (5/5): This roll had hamachi, salmon, tuna, avocado, oshinko and masago. It was very fresh. Rice to fish ratio was good. Interesting that it was wrapped in soy paper. Dragon Roll (4/5): This roll had shrimp tempura, imitation crab, avocado, topped with eel. This was good but there was barely an eel on it. This is a good sushi spot. Nice and chill place to grab lunch or dinner. It is close by the train and just a street away from the downtown area. read more

Fuji Sukiyaki has been around in San Mateo for as long as I can remember, nestled along one of the busier streets in town. At first glance, it appears to be your ordinary sushi restaurant. Inside, it's a cozy, welcoming spot with ample seating for parties of all sizes, whether you're dining solo or coming in with a group. We stopped by around 6:30 PM and, despite how packed it looked, we were seated surprisingly quickly--a great start to the evening. The service was attentive and efficient, and the food was even better. We went all in with our sushi order, including the Dynamite Roll, Dragon Roll, Spider Roll, Titanic Roll, Yosemite Roll, and Okinawa Roll, along with the 101 Hand Roll and a side of tempura. Every plate was beautifully presented and incredibly flavorful. Each roll had its own personality, and none of them disappointed. No matter what you desire, I'm sure their menu has something to satisfy every craving. (I didn't get the chance to take photos, yet there's plenty to see already provided via other reviews.) The ambiance is simple and familiar, adding to its charm and serves to be the neighborhood favorite. If you're in San Mateo and craving sushi, Fuji Sukiyaki is a must-visit. With a wide selection and a comfortable dining experience, it absolutely deserves a 5-star rating. read more

Hands down one of my favorite sushi spots in this area! I've had it a couple years ago and went back recently to check it out! Still amazing quality of fish and delicious selection. The seared toro is my FAV and the Sunrise is also another must. A bite of either of these and you'll be sent to sushi heaven!! read more
I absolutely love this sushi place. It's pretty unassuming on the outside, but there's actually a fair amount of seating on the inside. Service is super quick. The prices are reasonable for a sushi place. I usually get the rolls here because they are pretty big! Fish tastes fresh and the portions are great. I haven't tried any of the nigiri or sashimi, but I'll be sure to try it next time. read more

Grabbed some dinner here at around 5 pm on a Saturday and we got seated pretty quickly for our table of 6. Their menu had a lot of options from rolls to sashimi to bento boxes. The servers were communicative and very helpful in getting our preferences correct for certain dishes. Sushi Combo - I chose it because I wanted to try the different fishes they had and wanted to know exactly which ones I'd be getting. I liked the salmon and the unagi the most. The hamachi was pretty good and the scallop had a little fishy taste to it. It was very filling as all the pieces were massive and thick. Other dishes my table ordered were the Chirashi bowl which came with 12 pieces of sashimi which were also very massive and fresh. Another favorite of the table was the bento boxes where the teriyaki sauce was a star and the tempura was crispy and light. Overall, the dishes were well priced and everything tasted very fresh with large portions. Definitely a great sushi option if you're in the San Mateo area. read more

Beef Sukiyaki. Large portion but the soup was bland and water down. Customers say it's due to the large amount of cabbage. Been ordering this each visit. Skip next time. The rolls were yummy . read more
There are so many Japanese restaurants in downtown San Mateo, but not many of them serve good sushi and is open for lunch. I really like Fuji Sukiyaki because it's not packed but still serves up really good sushi for the price. There are usually several fish of the day so you can really get your craving fixed. The toro with uni and caviar was really good. Very rich and decadent. Bluefin maguro was also very good. read more

Had the 14 pcs sashimi combo (with miso soup and rice) and the beef sukiyaki. The sashimi was fresh and fatty in a good way. The sukiyaki's broth was rich with mushroom umami, featuring tender beef, mushrooms, veggies, tofu, egg, and clear noodles cooked in soy sauce and sweet sake. Paired it with a bottle of sake--perfect match. read more
Good and fast service. Lots of refills. They have a variety of foods on their menu to choose from. We ordered sushi and it was really good. The rice bowl was good as well. Lots of room in the restaurant and ample seating both in the front and back. There is traditional seating, but you must ask. It was pretty neat to see these cause not many restaurants have them. read more

WHEN I came to San Mateo to eat at Dash, I passed by an izakaya that looked pretty good, called Fuji Sukiyaki. Tonight's dinner choice? Decided to give it a try! Location: 428 E 3rd Ave, San Mateo, CA 94401 Highlights: Value for Money: Each piece of nigiri is generously portioned, and the price is reasonable. Freshness: The sea urchin and oysters are quite fresh; overall, the fish quality is decent. Ambience: They have tatami rooms inside, giving it a nice, authentic vibe. Flavor: The variety of food combinations was very appealing to me. Some fish are sourced from Japan, which aren't commonly offered in typical sushi places. There's a large selection of sushi and other dishes. Sunrise: Salmon arranged like flower petals, with roe in the center on top of rice. This was a childhood favorite of mine, though it's missing the mayo. Japan Aji: Japanese Aji, great presentation and flavor, with a nice seared touch. Sukiyaki: Initially, I thought this was a sukiyaki-focused place, but they only have a few options. Planning to try the beef next time, which is around $28 -- not bad. Oyster Bomb: Oyster topped with sea urchin, roe, and a quail egg -- super satisfying in one bite. Hand Roll: They have some off-menu items written on a small blackboard. I ordered the uni, roe, and toro hand roll that the table next to me had. Rolls: Since I ordered a lot of raw items earlier, I decided to try a baked roll too, which was also good. They offer many types of rolls. Side Dishes: For those who don't eat raw fish, they have a variety of cooked dishes, which go well with sukiyaki. Overall, it feels like a down-to-earth izakaya with good value. Service is good. Looking forward to my next visit! read more

We do take reservations for lunch but we close every Tuesday. Thank You!
Is the price difference if uni between domestic US kind and thwv imported from Japan (I assume Hokkaido) worth it? For those who has had both kinds, can you tell the difference?
Hokkaido Uni is always more expensive than A grade Santa Barbara Uni. I love A grade Santa Barbara Uni more :)
Are they doing takeout during the lockdown?
They will be opened back for takeout on Wednesday April 15th.
Is there an extra charge to use a tatami room?
There is a minimum headcount requirement to use the tatami room. If you don't have enough people, I believe that they charge you.
Is it possible to reserve a traditional tatami room?
Yes you can call them to reserve. I think you just need a minimum of 4 people.
Do you serve gluten free?
If you mean sushi, no. https://gluten.org/japanese-cuisine-gluten-free-diet/
Do u do all you can eat?
Their fish is incredibly high quality. Treasure each bite, piece by piece. With that being said, they do not offer AYCE.
