Listen, you are going here for the great food. You don’t need to be seated around a teppan watching a chef throw around food. Every time I’ve been here my husband wouldn’t go because there was no dinner show. He finally went with for a birthday celebration and now understands. The food is amazing. The staff is wonderfully pleasant and helpful. The robot waiter is fun. There’s a reason the place is almost always full. Go eat here now!

Fushi Yami is one of those spots that doesn’t try too hard—and that’s exactly why it works. Tucked off Lincoln Highway, it’s got a no-frills vibe, but the food speaks for itself. The hibachi is consistently solid—steak and shrimp are my go-to—and the sushi rolls hit the sweet spot between fresh and flavorful. The Crazy Roll? Wild in the best way.
Ordering feels more fast-casual than sit-down, which throws some people off, but once you dig in, you get it. The portions are generous, prices are fair, and the fried rice deserves its own fan club. Service can be hit or miss—some staff are super friendly, others seem like they’re counting down the minutes—but the owner’s usually around and genuinely cares.
It’s the kind of place where you can try something new every time or stick to your comfort order and never be disappointed. Not fancy, not fussy—just good food that hits the spot when you need it. Whether you’re grabbing lunch between errands or settling in for a casual dinner, Fushi Yami delivers. Bonus points for easy parking and fast turnaround.

Fushi Yami – First Visit Review (DeKalb, IL)
I recently tried Fushi Yami in DeKalb for the first time and overall, I had a pretty good experience with a few things to note.
I ordered the Godzilla Roll, which came with eight pieces for about $11. The roll was very tasty—fresh, well-made, and satisfying. I really enjoyed the flavor combination and the texture. My only wish is that it had been topped with some eel sauce to elevate it even more. But even without it, it was still solid and flavorful.
I also got a four-piece crab rangoon (labeled as “crab raccoon” on the menu), which cost $4.50. This was where I was a little disappointed. The flavor was actually pretty good, but the container they used for it trapped a lot of moisture. I didn’t eat it right away—waited about 10 minutes until I got home—and by then, they were soggy and had lost that crispy texture that makes crab rangoon so good. A more ventilated container or something to prevent the steam buildup would’ve made a big difference.
As for how I eat my sushi, I like dipping it in soy sauce with a little bit of wasabi, and I always top each bite with some of the pickled ginger. I know ginger is usually used to cleanse your palate between bites, but I like the flavor it adds when paired with the sushi directly.
This was my first time trying Fushi Yami, and despite the minor setback with the crab rangoon, I’ll definitely be back. The sushi was fresh, the price was reasonable, and the overall quality was impressive for a local spot. Looking forward to trying more rolls in the future—especially if I can get some eel sauce next time!

Tasty hibachi here, and so much more, like Ramen and sushi. Gonna take a minute to work thru the large menu. And they have a super cute robot deliver the food to your table!

Great food at an even better price. I went here and ordered 2 rolls and some sashimi, the fish was super fresh and flavorful, and the rice underneath had a unique(in a good way) flavor that just added to the overall experience. I will be returning as this place offers a wide variety of items at very fair prices and is very popular among students.

Hometown place. Wonderful food, girls who work there were so kind to help me order as I’ve never eaten there or at a Japanese restaurant before. I don’t like fish and found vegetable sushi! It was so delicious!
I also had spring rolls. They were good but probably time to change the oil for frying. They were just a bit greasy. I ate them though and they were fine!
My husband had chicken and noodles hibachi. He enjoyed it!
The little robot that delivered the food is cute!
You can tell how popular this place is. It was super busy!
I’d love to freshen up this place esthetically but we will definitely be back next time we are in town.

Delicious food. Some of the best fried rice I’ve ever had.
Prices are super reasonable.
They have a really cool ordering system. Everyone at your table scans a QR code for the menu and as you add items, it updates in real time on everyone’s phone
And your food will be brought by a robot. You can just order at the register as well.
Only issue I had was they’re not very clear on getting your drinks.

Our Family loves coming here. The food is amazing! My daughter is obcessed with the robot that delivers the food. Any time I ask her what she wants for dinner almost every time she says she wants Fushi Yami.

This used to be my favorite place in town, but unfortunately the service has gone downhill — it’s definitely not the place it once was. After a bad experience with the counter staff and an unreasonable wait time, I decided to give them another chance, thinking maybe they were understaffed. However, two back-to-back negative experiences were enough for me to take my business elsewhere.
I’m Latina, so this isn’t coming from a place of bias — but if someone is taking customer orders, they should at least be pleasant. That was not the case. I had called in my order while I was in Sycamore. Once I arrived, I was told it wasn’t ready yet and was given a buzzer. A walk-in customer came in, ordered the same item, and their buzzer went off before mine.
I politely went to the counter to ask about my order since I had called ahead. She turned to the cook to ask, and it turns out my food had been sitting on the counter the entire time I was waiting. I was already frustrated, but instead of apologizing, she handed me my order with attitude — as if I was the one inconveniencing her.
After two similar experiences, I can’t recommend this place anymore and won’t be returning.

Lived in dekalb for a number of years while going to college and Fushi Yami was a great place for friends to get together. We still come here while passing through, even if it’s a drive from 39.
Sushi has never had a bellow god taste and their hibachi is pretty good too. It’s a quick stop, college town, sushi place and it still surpasses expectations, even after ~15? years.
They even have a little robot that delivers you food to your table, which is a perfect touch to the atmosphere.
