I love Fuuki. It reminds me of little restaurants I visited in Kyoto. The food is always excellent, although the sushi can take some time when the restaurant is packed. They're often busy, so book ahead. The banquet is amazing value for money.

Had high hopes for this place, however, was sorely disappointed. The food was lovely though the service was deplorable to say the least. We were a party of 6 and after ordering at approximately 7.30 pm had our meals served in no order whatsoever, a couple of mains were served in minutes, however, the rest of the orders trickled through over the course of the next 90 minutes with everyone eating at separate times.

One of the main course orders (Nebayaki Udon) wasn't served until 8.50 pm and it was at that stage with one main course still nowhere to be seen we cancelled the missing order and beat a hasty retreat. Admittedly the restaurant was almost full, however, the service was simply awful, on the couple of occasions we enquired whether our meals would be much longer the waitresses would simply nod and disappear never to be seen again. The staff were apologetic as we left, however, we won't be returning any time soon.

This place is great, it looks like nothing inside and has not changed in ages but that is part of its charm. We come here often and are never disappointed. The food is great, the service is fantastic and often amusing, as the waiters speak very little English, but are always polite and charming. Sometimes the sushi can take a while if it is busy and full of Japanese as it often is, as it is prepared at the front of the restaurant by the one chef but otherwise there are no complaints. We often just have a mixture of entrees and that fills us up and is very well priced. I hope this institution continues for many years to come.

Consistently good food and good service. Tempura prawns are excellent so as the Sushi prepared by the same Sushi chef who had been there since we started eating at Fuuki some four years ago. With an experienced sushi chef, I suspect is a partner of the restaurant, the quality of sushi always stay high. BYO wine is a plus.

One of my daughters is vegetarian. She ordered a couple of vegetable sushi rolls along with our other orders. She was very hungry so we asked to bring her order to come first. The waitress agreed to do so but her order still had not came when we all finished eat our food.

While eating our food, we asked many times for my daughter’s order. Every time the waitress walked pass we asked for her order but nothing happened. Finally we were quite upset and we talked to the staff about it. His reply was “ If the order or orders were cheap one, he makes sushi the last one of all orders.”

We were customer of the restaurant since it was located in Mosman and we used to take our business customers too but after this incident we had never gone back again.

Good food, good price. I think this is how a restaurant should be. Typical Japanese sushi, with some assorted fried things.

Great find, we definitely will be back as we saw so much great looking food coming out of the kitchen and travelling to other tables. We loved our shashimi and sushi. The Tempura will have to wait till next time. Just felt like you could be dining somewhere in Japan as the restaurant was full of Japanese and the atmosphere matched.

I have been coming to this place off and on for over 20 years and went again last night, first time in over 6 years. Not much has changed and that is good. Still fresh, good quality food at very reasonable prices.

I had the gyoza and vergetables wrapped in beef for entrees - excellent. For main we shared some Tempura prawns and vegetables, a huge plate for $15, grilled eel, again really generous serve for $18 and spicy chicken Teriyaki, $16. Total bill was $75 for 3 people and we were very full. It is a small restaurant but has lot's of character, reminding me of Japanese restaurants in Tokyo you find while walking the streets.

The waiter seemed to speak little English which again added to the charm and illusion you had been transported to Tokyo!

Went there for dinner tonight with my husband on a tuesday night. After reading the reviews here, I thought I would make a booking to avoid disappointment however it was not as packed as I thought it would be ( which was good!) Perhaps we were early ( 6.30pm) but a good sign is that a few tables were eating happily already when we arrived to prove that is it popular! We were welcomed by the sushi chef and the waitresses with some greeting in Japanese and showed to our table promptly.

The specials were written in Japanese - but if you ask the waitress ( who was really professional and spoke perfect English was really nice to translate it for us)
My husband and I ordered the large sushi, tofu salad and terriyaki chicken to share. All the meals were gobbled up really quickly as it was so delicious! My fave was the tofu salad and the sushi was very fresh and tasty ( just as the reviews mentioned)

Definitely will be back again to try out more of the menu that looked so delicious!
Also a good sign was we noticed a really cute elderly Japaneses couple coming in to eat at the sushi bar and mingling with the chef. The chef was really friendly talking to them and placing freshly made sushi right on their plate ( something just like a real cosy local Japanese restaurant would do in Japan).
