New Fujiyama

I've been eating at Fujiyama in the last 5 years and unfortunately I have to say the quality Of the service, food and environment has become very low.

The staff pretend to be busy instead of serving customers, the prices have rised like northing before (example the chiedevo used to be around 13£ and now is 18£!!!) and the worst is that the food quality has instead become lower... What a disappointment!!! But to be honest all the good places in Brixton are disappearing ;(

I've been ordering take away from here for a couple of years now and always been really happy however this time around I'm really disappointed.

Food was later than time stated on phone. The hot food was warm going on cold and the cold sushi was warm. it looked like it had been thrown in a container.

It's not cheap and was really not worth the money. I won't be ordering again from here as there as better options since their quality has gone down hill.

Bloody awful. Food took more than an hour to arrive. The place was chaos and the staff were shouting at each other in front of us. Food was bland and luke warm. Avoid.

I've been going to Fujiyama for years and haven't noticed any change at all in the service. I think if anything, the quality of the food went downhill a couple of years ago when the soups were a bit tasteless and the gyoza soggy but the food seems to be back on form. Decent but not amazing food which is reasonably priced. Staff have always been efficient if not overly friendly but that's not really what you expect from a place like this and personally, I'd rather have the company of my friends or partner rather than an overly friendly waiter. I always go for the ramen soups, the starters and the sushi which I've always thought are better than the curries.

I've also been ordering takeaway for about 4 years and although it is usually sushi I order (therefore it doesn't go cold) and only to Camberwell but I have to say, I've never had a problem with my order.

We ordered a delivery meal from here last night and it was a total let-down. The food arrived a whole hour later than expected and was cold. The starters, being mainly tempura were soggy and disgusting and the luke-warm ramen broth wasn't much better, being full of (now) overcooked noodles. On top of that, the two Asahi beers we ordered with the meal were warm and gassy.

We rang the restaurant to complain and in all fairness they offered us a discount on our next order but I don't think we'll be ordering from them again. The food is, after all, pretty expensive and even with a discount on our next order I think it would have to be spot-on to justify the price - and I'm not really convinced it would be.

I've been here twice in the last week (lunch and dinner) and both times it's been rammed. The various elaborate sushi rolls (dragon etc) are good and so are the bento boxes and donburis. Plus it's much cheaper and more laid back than anything in the West End.

I was quite surprised to see the bad reviews on here. I went with friends last week and had a lovely meal, the service was fine, and it seemed really, really good value. We'll be coming back very soon.

Absolutely agree. Awful. Have been there twice - and really wanted to like it. The food is badly presented and tastes awful, the prices are ridiculous in relation to the goods produced, the service terrible.

So over-rated. DO NOT BOTHER. Try Brixton Village.

TERRIBLE, RUDE, INSULTING SERVICE- DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS RESTAURANT

Have just had a terrible experience with the delivery driver who refused to get out the car to deliver our order. He was unbelievably rude and expected us to come to the car to pick up our food. I wrongly assumed that ‘delivery’ meant that the food would be delivered to us, not expect us to walk half way down the road to pick up our food. Not only that, he then proceeded to sit halfway down the street for 20 mins in some sort of ‘standoff!’.

If there are concerns about safety of certain areas, then simply do not agree to deliver to our postcode in the first place! If he was so afraid of the area, why then proceed to wait in the car the 20 minutes???

Am simply gobsmacked by the treatment and will never go to fujiyama's again. They seem to think that because they get in the crowds and are popular, they can treat their customers with complete disdain.

I have never experienced anything as bad as this.

Fujiyama is a reasonably good Japanese restaurant in the middle of Brixton, which i have patronised for a number of years (really good salmon skin rolls) and have noted the really rude and nonchalant service, which has persuaded me to take my business elsewhere. Shame really! Wanna spend my money in an establishment where i am treated a bit better.
