I was looking forward to trying this place since they had one of my favorite Japanese dishes, Hamachi-Kama (yellowtail collar). So I ordered that and a salmon avocado roll togo. When I got home, the Hamachi-Kama was delicious, grilled to perfection, not undercooked, not overcooked, meaty and flavorful. I loved it. On the other hand, the salmon avocado roll was, in my opinion, inedible. The salmon was tough and fibrous. I took a couple bites and just threw the rest away I'm sorry to report - I felt bad wasting such food of course. Other than that, the service was excellent. when I arrived the person handling that to go orders took good care of me. I might try it again, especially for the Hamachi-kama read more

Awesome selection, very fresh fish and fast friendly service. We sat outside and had a blast eating sushi in the sun!

Love this place. Great food and friendly service. The Owner took the time to introduce herself to me and my wife, while we enjoyed our delicious food. They offer a wonderful variety of appetizers and entrees, all in the traditional Japanese fashion. The Sashimi is very fresh, and the Dragon Roll was super tasty. The prices were also reasonable. We will certainly make this one of our "go to" restaurants and will spread the word to friends and family. Very nice people, who take a genuine interest in their customers. They understand the meaning of reasonable prices, great food, and outstanding service. read more

Came here again for a birthday celebration on a Tuesday night. Again, it was awesome! Nice outdoor patio in their parking lot behind the restaurant (heat lamps and nice lighting). Our server was lovely. She was very accommodating and sweet! The food was awesome per usual. Everyone enjoyed their meal. We got the rainbow roll, Broadway roll, veggie tempura, gyoza, Scallion pancake, cucumber salad, avocado roll, cucumber roll, chicken katsu curry, veggie curry, and Chashu ramen. GOOD portions and tasty food. All in all, great experience. From the service to the food, we were all super pleased. Thank you so much Fuumi! read more

I don't understand why there were some bad review. Our small family just want to get some lunch when we travel around Bay Area. It turned out the food here is really good. We had lobster ramen, vegetable udon, and their special Aburi Toro. All very good. Highly recommended. read more

Another delicious dinner. It is worth the drive to go here for dinner. So full from all the great food. Had a wonderful evening with family and the environment made it even better. The service was very attentive but not pushy. Everything that was recommended was savory and fresh. Highly recommend going here if you are looking for a satisfying dinner with great customer service and flavorful food. read more

Very very good katsu, my friend had the unagi don which was really good as well, karaage too over fried, skippable

Came here with my coworkers on Friday night around 7pm. We made reservation ahead so there's no wait time. This place is neat and clean. The service is outstanding and the food here is delicious. I recommend the rolls, hamachi Kama,uni spoon, and kimchi udon. Will add to my bookmark and visit again next time!! read more

OMG ! The food is the best! It's so fresh from Japan. I really love to order the Sushi Omakase. I ate at this place three time a week. Love it ! Definitely will recommend this restaurant for all my families and friends. read more

I have only tried the Chirashi and Shrimp tempura. Both were great. Price is also reasonable. Will definitely visit again for something different next time. read more

Snappy, pleasant service. Edamame, omakase w sweet sticky rice and a cold Sapporo was just right. Outdoor tables were roomy.

Was in the area and saw this place was newly opened, so decided to give it a try. The space was pretty big and theres also a private room that the owners said will have karaoke in the future. Had a few nigiri, squid, kimchi ramen and the uni spoon.... All of which were pretty good. Would return in the future! read more

Great place in Broadway! We came for dinner on Sunday but could be a nice spot for a weekday lunch. Got the chashu ramen which was delicious. The broth was flavorful and rich and the pork belly was nicely seared. The kimchi ramen was great as well - kimchi was on point (disclaimer though I am not Korean). read more

Very friendly staff. We made a reservation to celebrate a birthday and they were able to seat us outside in the parking lot. Although not a high end sushi place, they have lots of variety and the fish was fresh. The skewers are highly recommended! read more

We happened on this place because another place was taking too long to seat us, BUT so happy it did! The place was nice, clean and friendly. The food was fabulous. They're Fuumi sushi with a slight lemon taste was to die for and my husband had seafood ramen, his words, just what I needed and the best ever! Thank you Fuumi for a wonderful food experience! read more

Visited this place a few times. Good service and excellent food. The ramen and sushi rolls were very good and nice.

So I am driving down Broadway and saw the sign. Decided to give it a try. Nice list of offers so I decided to sample a broad swipe of the menu. General comments. All servings took to long to come from kitchen based on how busy the restaurant was. Sushi chef appeared to stay busy throughout the time i was here. Servers were friendly and mostly attentive. Skewers - Okra, shitake mushrooms, shishito peppers and bacon wrapped scallops. All good except scallops. Scalops were rubbery and to much bacon that was under cooked. Had to send it back. Cucumber salad Sliced too thick and not marinated. Included carrots pieces that were just wrong. The marinade in the bowl was taste and refreshing. Just not a salad. Scallion pancakes Very well made. Comes with 3 sauces that were very good. Rolls - I judge most places by eating standards to compare how the place stacks up and then try 1 or 2 signature rolls. Spicy Tuna - good level spice, fare texture of the tuna, rice too sticky. Caterpillar - not sure where they got the crab. The size was ridiculous small and not crisp. Not sure how long they had these hanging out. Included cucumber and pieces of carrot that ruined the texture. To much rice Salmon skin - not on the list if rolls. The skin had been toasted but was not crisp. To much rice and those damn carrots that added nothing to the roll. Special roll - Fuumi $19 Interesting combination of fish, flavor and texture. Spicy tuna with imitation crab and avocado wrapped in rice . Topped with Salmon and lemon slice. Sauced with spicy mayo and unagi. Served with fried baby baby octopus. Used field greens to separate roll and hold octopus. The roll is pleasing to the palate with flavor and texture. The lemon slice a little to thick but adds sharpness and acid to the bite. The baby octopus was not fresh cooked to the order. They were oily and to much coating. I would not order this roll again. I use 1 to 5 to score This place is a solid 2 and a stretch 3 read more

The best japanese restaurant on the Peninsula! We had unagi don, lion king & dragon rolls, avocado salad, shrimp tempura and takoyaki and can't choose the winner because they are all the best! Will come back FOR SURE! read more

We stayed in a nearby hotel in Burlingame and saw there were a few restaurants nearby on Broadway. The downtown was quaint and there were several restaurants to eat. We walked on Broadway and saw decided to stop by at Famuu and give it a try. We didn't even look at the Yelp reviews at all before walking in. We were impressed by the quality of the food. We had the Chashu Ramen, miso soup and Spicy salmon roll. The food was delicious, flavorful and satisfying. If I am ever in Burlingame I will definitely go back. Highly recommend Fuumi. read more

I don't really want to write this review but my friend and I ordered from this place through Ubereats and we were disappointed. We got this for lunch and the sushi rice was really hard. My friend loves rice and she was really disappointed. It's really surprising for a Japanese restaurant to mess up on their sushi rice. This place was always on my bookmark to try too... I understand how food can taste different when it's to go but the rice was unacceptable. Also, the salmon was a bit fishy. We're pretty upset with our lunch and we had to order from another Japanese restaurant to satisfy our craving. read more

Came here to try since it's a new business. The back door from parking lot to the dinning area need to be fix, it slams hard and makes a huge loud noise every time when someone uses it, scares the hell out of me almost drop my sushi on the table. Please train the staffs as they look really lost when you ask them the menu. I saw this spider roll and cucumber roll picture on yelp, pointed at it and ask if they can make that for me. The girl was uncertain so she waved this guy over who said " yes sure we can make anything you see for you" it came out as funny as it can be, see attached picture. Finally they got my cucumber roll right but it was a whopping $17. Ouch. read more

Wouldn't recommend - poor/very slow service and pricey for what you get. Don't come here if you want your food on time and to receive all of the food you ordered. This is the second time we've been here and the same situation happened. We would always be missing (1) or (2) items from what we ordered - the wait staff wouldn't notice or remember even after we asked about the status. Our order: -grilled squid appetizer - scallop, tuna, hamachi, salmon, and unagi nigiri -fummi roll -fried banana dessert Outcome: -grilled squid appetizer showed up cold and 1 hour after we ordered (aka last) -all sushi bar items appeared 20 mins after ordering -fried banana never showed up after waiting 30 minutes. We were aware that the fried banana might take 10-15 minutes from our waiter, BUT 32 minutes?! We should have been told to order that first before the entrees. I understand if a food item takes 20+ mins to make (I.e hamachi kama), but you should be notified if that's the case so you can plan for it. Also, while we were waiting for our dessert, we could hear a celebration (birthday) in the kitchen with ALL of the staff in the back. I love encouraging staff morale, but if you're very pressed for getting kitchen orders out, I would wait to celebrate after hours. It just rubbed salt on the wound. ------ In response to the owner: Thank you for your response. In response to reserving the private room- does that mean ALL SERVERS AND YOUR SUSHI CHEFS AND ALL STAFF basically disappear to go to the back to help that party? There was a table next to us who had to wait 20+mins to even get water. For the fried banana, when the servers first go to take the order for food in general, that's when they should let the customers know if they want fried banana, they should order it now. That's what Roy's does with their chocolate soufflé since they cook it fresh. I wouldn't mind waiting, but I and along with most customers like feedback and transparency. read more

We had lunch today at Fuumi and the experience was great! The hostess was very friendly and quick with our orders. There are tables outside by their parking lot for outside seating so we were able to enjoy our meal as it was made and they were all fresh! Will definitely recommend the Fuumi roll that had fried octopus - very satisfying. Glad to know that there's a solid sushi place not too far from home. read more

The food was good but I was very upset by how a black couple was completely ignored by the wait staff. The two finally got up and walked out. Two white men who came in after they did had their order taken and had been served drinks and still this couple had not been spoken to. Not cool in 2022. read more

Meh. Ive had way better for way less. It's alright but I wouldn't make a special trip for it

Service was unacceptable!!! 6:11 Arrived. 2 tables seated already, both finishing up eating. Large party in back room. I was seated and asked what I want to drink. Requested water and hot tea. 6:18 Waiter took my order. AVOID waiter if he is shorter extremely muscular young Asian. Also reordered water and tea as it had not come. 6:35 Noticed man who came after me was eating something already. 6:39. Noticed same man had now received a second plate of food. Noticed party of 4 that arrived after me also had food. 6:41. Woman asked if my order had been taken. Responded "Yes, quite awhile ago" 6:44. Spent the next 9 minutes watching the wait staff trying to get someone's attention to check my order. Mind you, in over 25 minutes my waiter has never returned to my table. 6:53 Left unserved. read more

So I'm visiting from NY (for the game, go Niners! Lol), and have heard that the sushi in San Fran is amazing. It was the last night of our trip and we were looking for some quick food, but to also get the last taste of local flair. I decided to pop in here because it was close to where my family was getting dinner. Firstly, the hostess was incredibly friendly and accommodating. I'm a vegetarian, so I was trying to figure out what to order. She not only took time to explain what was available on the menu, but also offered to specially make a roll for me. I only spent $7 and change, but she treated me with such great customer service, I might as well have been spending $700. I was told 5 minutes, and sure enough, I came back back from across the street and it was ready. I get the sushi back to the hotel and it's absolutely delicious. The rice is cooked much better than other sushi I've had; it's chewy but not hard. Wish I went in to this place earlier in the trip, because I'd love to try more menu items. Really amazing place; great service, fast, and delicious. You can't ask for more. I wish I had this great a sushi place where I live! read more

Service was pleasant and the restaurant was clean. The food had great presentation but I was a bit disappointed in the food. The chicken wings were half raw and the "kobe beef" was so raw you cannot chew it. The fish wasn't fresh. On the up side, the ramen and miso was interesting. It was unique. I'm not sure I'd try it again. read more

Me and my girls come here once a week. We love this place. The fish is always so fresh and delicious! I haven't ever had a bad experience.

I ordered this via Doordash for pickup as I've been meaning to explore other local sushi restaurants opposed to defaulting to my go to. Background: I went to Fuumi when it first opened but never left a review. My original experience was alright but I figured I'd head back after the restaurant had gone through some growing pains. This time around I opted to order the omakase with uni, maguro, and tamago as extra. I've listed my thoughts from what I can remember in no particular order. Unagi: I really have no idea what went wrong here. I don't think the chef sampled the unagi itself as there it was undercooked by a fair margin. A good unagi melts in your mouth and the bones, while present, are nearly indistinguishable to one's bite. This was hard to chew and the bones stuck out like a sore thumb. The kabayaki wasn't particularly balanced either but I would've been able to forgive that if the unagi itself was fine. Uni: If I recall, this was from Santa Barbara. I would take this with a grain of salt as it's the pandemic and all (hence deliveries may not occur as often) but this was only average for the price. The quality of the uni itself was far below average in terms of freshness but it still managed to hit my craving. Salmon: This is normally the bread and butter of every sushi restaurant; after all, who doesn't like salmon? This particular piece in the omakase was well... I don't really know what happened here. The texture was fine but the salmon lacked any of that signature fattiness that you'd expect. Tamago: This was nicely composed with a balanced flavor profile. My only gripe is that I wish it was a tad more airy. All in all, there was a fair bit of rice in each nigiri and it wasn't seasoned well. There were fish at times that were great, but the others weren't the freshest. For the price I paid - $48 without tax - I definitely won't be heading back soon. My experience might be off given the recent raving reviews, but my most recent trip to Fuumi is like my last... eh. read more

I came here with a group of friends because it's one of the newest eatery in the area for lunch. We ordered a Chef's sashimi boat that was super cute and and yummy. Then we ordered a kimchi ramen, and on top of that we ordered a beef nigiri! -- Everything was very fresh and the waitresses were really friendly. Sadly, we were so hungry, I only remembered to take 3 photos! Will definitely be back again! -- they also recommend me the Chashu Ramen and Fuumi Roll for next time! Excited!!!!!!!! read more

Pricey and the roll was tiny! I don't even think I had enough to eat to be able to say the roll was good or not.

This has been our go-to takeout and outdoor dining during Covid. Reasonable prices, excellent quality, very attentive to sanitation and hygiene during Covid. You can request sushi to be made with real crab and WOW. Delicious. Thanks Fuumi!!! read more

Cute patio and spaced out enough to enjoy dinner during Covid! Felt safe and great sushi
