| - Good AYCE Japanese in the downtown area. Reasonable prices.
Fushimi offers a good selection of sushi and cooked Japanese items, nothing really different, mostly what you would expect. If you're really into rolls, they have the standard ones and offer a short list of "special" rolls. Overall, they may not have the same variety as some of their Asian fusion counterparts, but after our first visit today, I can comfortably say it's one of the better AYCE Japanese restaurants I've been to in the downtown area (i.e. compared to Wild Ginger, Kyoto House, Gallery Sushi, Masa, Takumi.)
The quality of all the food we ordered (sushi, cooked items) was consistently good. The restaurant wasn't overly busy, so service was good and quick. Decor is OK, nothing to write home about, but it seemed clean.
Weekend lunch is $13.99, which is very reasonable. And a bonus is that dessert is included (ice cream). The dishes we liked most from our lunch today: Beef Negimaki (beef wrapped around green onion and mushrooms), Agedashi Tofu, Spicy crab salad (not spicy), Chicken yakitori. I enjoyed my sushi (including spicy salmon hand roll, their "Out of Control" roll). The Salmon pizza was only OK, I found the rice pizza part a bit too thick; it was crispy a wee bit mushy on the inside. The Red Bean ice cream was bland, as was the Black Sesame pudding, but the Green Tea and Mano ice cream was good.
