This has been a staple for years! It’s been quite some time since I’ve been here but everything is still amazing. The best servers and the food is always fresh. Ambiance is still very cute and they have the light up tunnel by the bathroom that a lot of people like to take pics at. Great sushi, drinks and if you are celebrating a birthday no “cake cutting fee”. This place embodies a true dining experience in NYC 💜

On March 28, my family visited Fushimi to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Unfortunately, we left wishing we had chosen another restaurant for the occasion.<br>The experience began with a long wait before our waitress came to take our order. We eventually had to ask her if we could place it because we had been waiting so long.<br>After receiving our drinks, we noticed something crawling up the wall behind our table. To our shock, we realized it was a mouse slowly climbing up the carpeted wall directly behind where my 5-year-old son was seated. We all jumped in disbelief, and the surrounding patrons were equally shocked and disgusted as they watched it happen.<br>The manager was called over, but the only solution offered was a 20% discount on the meal we had ordered. We were not offered another table or any alternative seating arrangement. We were extremely uncomfortable remaining where we were, especially with the possibility of the rodent coming back down while we were trying to eat.<br>The manager attempted to blame the issue on an apartment above the restaurant, but after leaving we realized there are no apartments above the restaurant.<br>This was completely unacceptable for an establishment that should have the resources and responsibility to maintain a clean and sanitary dining environment for its guests. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this location and will certainly not be returning.

The food was definitely pleasing to the taste. The service was top notch. The ambiance was nice and exotic to the eye (definitely for picture taking). But let's get into detail. The parking is quite scarce, unless you go to pay for parking in the area (I was lucky to find it in front of the restaurant). They serve in portions. So either advantage to dine appetizer, main course, and then dessert. Or choose to dine with two main courses with drinks. I give this place a 4 star for food due to not having to enjoy the full menu, but a good start by taste alone. Intimacy for dining and ambiance is reflected to dark backgrounds with blue hue lighting. Especially with circular booths by the wall for either 2 or more to a party. Service is very attentive to enjoy the experience of the establishment. For this establishment, consistency is key and they hold it dearly. I'm looking forward to another visit on the future.

I came here on Valentine’s Day after having tried it as takeout and was really excited to experience it in person. A few things stood out right away.<br><br>First, the atmosphere is a bit odd. The photos explain it better, but it feels kind of tacky. Not a dealbreaker on its own, but definitely noticeable. There were also a lot of kids running around, which was unexpected.<br><br>As for the food, I was pretty disappointed. It’s not bad sushi, but the quality feels closer to what you’d get at an all-you-can-eat place. To be specific, the rice didn’t seem fully cooked or properly seasoned. The fish itself was actually quite good, but sushi is mostly about the rice, and that part really missed the mark for me.<br><br>Overall, I wouldn’t say it’s terrible, but it’s not a place I’ll be going back to or ordering from again. The quality also seems a bit erratic compared to when I first tried it, which makes it hard to rely on

It’s a beautiful space with comfortable booths and romantic tables and subdued yet colorful lighting and beautiful corridors and clean spacious bathrooms. It lends itself well for a big youthful party grabbing a dinner after exploring Williamsburg.<br>It is NOT the place if you want to get quality Japanese-inspired food. I will give you two examples that will hopefully give you a clue -<br>- crab cakes are made using canned crab. In other words you can make this crab cake yourself by just buying a can of ‘Bumble Bee White Crab Meat’ at Stop and Shop for $3.99 and baking it.<br>- the rice in all sushi rolls is fridge-cold, making them hard, ruining the texture and dulling flavor.<br>No knowledgeable sushi chef would serve them that way

Fushimi Williamsburg was an amazingly decadent time! The ambiance was top shelf. I felt like I was transported to Japan upon entering. The food was amazing my Fiancée had the chicken and shrimp tempura roll. I had 2 signature rolls: the Dragon roll and the Sex on the beach roll, both were amazing! Naomi our sever recommended the mini filet mignon appetizer, which was delicious as well. We felt very cared for and seen by Naomi. It was my birthday and I felt very special. We would definitely come back we are already making plans to come back!

Went here for dinner and definitely recommend. Have already told several people about my positive experience. Servers Susanto and Coco were fantastic, very attentive, always had the water glass full, and very pleasant. Food was outstanding - had rock shrimp, petit filet, lobster roll, and Parmesan crusted chicken. Can’t wait to dine here again.

My server was a guy named Steven, it was my 18th birthday so i came here to celebrate it. The food was as good as the photos looked and the customer service was amazing! A waiter named Steven is possibly one of the nicest people I’ve met by far and was our waiter for the night! 10/10 place would go again!

This was our third visit to Fushimi because WOW the food always impresses! The atmosphere is eclectic, most of the space is a sit down restaurant but the music, laser lights, and front bar section all suggest dance club. Ultimately you gloss over it because the food is incredible and the staff is always so friendly and attentive. The Chutoro Crispy Rice w/caviar appetizer was unique: the rich Chu toro flavor, jalapeño spice, the salty pop of the caviar, and the crunch of the crispy rice all came together so nicely. The Sex on the Beach roll had a creamy citrus lightness to it that complemented the crunchy shrimp tempura so wonderfully. The Chu Toro nigiri is the stuff of dreams: the meat is a tender cloud of delectable bliss. The Molten Cake w/red velvet ice cream is a decadent finish to all of it. Fushimi is a favorite of ours, we’ll continue to come back!<br><br>Highlights: All of it really — Chu Toro nigiri (an absolute must), Chutoro Crispy Rice w/caviar, Sex on the Beach roll, Surf & Turf roll, molten chocolate cake<br><br>Date visited: 1/11/25

It is hard to find the place that has Seafood Bisque Soup and sushi at the same place. I order delivery this time. In the past if I have a chance to go out I always go to eat at the restaurant but during busy weekday, it is more convenient for me to just order out. Food came quickly and delicious.

Hold your plates tight, they will always try to get it away 😂<br>If you’re coming close to their closing they will try to get you out of the restaurant asap.<br><br>Other than that I loved every single thing about Fushimi. Great location in Williamsburg, modern “spacy” design, diverse options for seating (big square tables, round tables, booths, etc). Kind and gentle staff, they definitely know every detail about the food - so don’t be shy and ask, they know all answers! Very patient waiters, friendly hostess.<br>The food is awesome, I love Asian food and this spot in Williamsburg is definitely my go to if I’m in a mood for some boogie fancy and interesting Asian fusion. They have many options: fish, meat, salads, sushi, desserts. Cocktail menu is diverse as well.<br><br>UPDATE! Was there on Saturday. FANTASTIC service, we had a very good time and enjoyed the food 🔥🔥🔥

First time here and it won’t be my last time. I came to celebrate a friends birthday and it was an amazing time. We had a hostess named Elaine who was very cordial and attentive to our needs/orders. She was very engaging, and suggested some very good drinks along with food options.<br><br>The food was amazing. We got the shrimp fried rice, dragon and mummy rolls, fried duck and other items. Everything was delicious and we enjoyed the food. Drinks were amazing, we had 3 rounds each topped with birthday green tea shots from Elaine for our friends.<br><br>Atmosphere was amazing, and intimate. The music was not too loud so we were able to converse and enjoy each others company. I had an amazing time and will definitely be back.
