This remains one of my favorites in Palo Alto area. Offers authentic Japanese cuisine and the ambiance is Japanese style with great Japanese style floral display, enhancing the nice and quiet setting along the busy El Camino Real. It’s a place for business lunch or friends meeting place.

One of the best fish courses I ever had. The lady serving our table is very kind and thoughtful about any allergies or other requests we had. Good for gatherings, quiet and spacious. A little tricky to locate the restaurant at first but parking is sufficient.

Fuki Sushi is a Palo Alto institution that continues to impress with its fresh ingredients, generous portions, and consistently excellent service. The fish quality is outstanding—vibrant, buttery, and expertly sliced, making every piece of sushi a delight. The chirashi bowl was a standout, featuring an abundant assortment of sashimi over perfectly seasoned rice, each bite showcasing balance and freshness. The specialty rolls were creative without being overwhelming, allowing the natural flavors of the fish to shine. The restaurant’s clean, minimalist interior creates a calm dining environment, ideal for both casual lunches and relaxed dinners. Staff members were attentive and efficient, ensuring our tea was always full and our orders arrived promptly. What makes Fuki Sushi special is its reliability; every visit delivers the same high standards and satisfying experience. It’s the kind of place locals return to again and again, confident they’ll leave happy. Whether you’re a sushi enthusiast or trying it for the first time, Fuki offers a welcoming atmosphere and exceptional quality that truly earns its five-star reputation.

We are sushi fanatics family who visit Tokyo enough to know what a great sushi is. We strongly recommend Fuki Sushi both for the sushi and the very authentic Japanese ambiance from the restaurant’s interior design to the impeccable service from the wonderful staff. We think it is one of the very best sushi restaurants in all of South Bay. This restaurant is obviously run by caring people who are devoted to sharing great Japanese food and culture.

We hadn’t dined here for several years. It was really nice to dine here again. Fuki Sushi reminds me of being in Japan. We really enjoy this type of setting for a Japanese restaurant. The nigiri sushi and sushi rolls are very good! Service was good, and the atmosphere was just okay because there was a little boy that was noisy. One great thing is that they also have Tatami rooms (Washitsu).

Good food and great staff. Authentic Japanese restaurant with traditional decor. The waiter helped us pick some good vegetarian options from the menu. We went on a weekday, so did not find any issue in finding a table. Parking is available at the back of the restaurant.

Best Japanese restaurant on the peninsula. Very Nice inside, expensive, but you get what you pay for, very high quality food and a comfy Japanese interior design. Their sake nigiri is some of the best i’ve ever had. Shout out to the chicken karage, their miso soup, and their ice cold Sapporo.

I’m a Palo Alto native and went back here recently for nostalgia, 20 years ago this was in my friends and families rotation. I ordered the chirashi and the quality of the fish was simply awful. Sashimi is not supposed to be hard or rubbery. This is not really a Japanese restaurant it’s a place to order chicken teriyaki or fried chicken. The service and atmosphere of the place was lovely but I felt ripped off spending $50 for an almost inedible lunch that was supposed to be a nice treat. As my Japanese mom says “Rich people who don’t know Japanese cuisine go . They like it because service is good.” She’s right and it’s a shame.

We absolutely loved this place. Everything we had was delicious, truly. The sushi was very fresh and perfectly prepared. Drinks were great. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was relaxed but nice. I would love to come here again and order everything on the menu. Not sure you could go wrong.

My wife and I loved the atmosphere and soft music. Food was delicious and fresh. Wait time for a table dinner time was less then 5 minutes. Some parking spots are compact, but the hostess was kind enough to remind us if we have all our belongings with us and not to leave any valuables visible in the car. Tablets, phones etc. Great experience all around.
