“This is a nice little spot. Better for takeout, but it does have a small eat-in space. The people who own/run the shop are quite lovely and the sushi itself is pretty yummy.

Vegetarian options: As with most sushi places, lots of good options for vegetarian rolls.

Parking: Lots of parking in the thrifty food parking lot next door.“

“I've been coming to Fujiya for 15 years since I was a student.. now Just returned from Tokyo - wow, a whole new appreciation. I'm so grateful for this business and its longevity in the community; it really is a staple of Victoria. Domo arigatogozaimasu Fujiya 🙇‍♂️“

“Warm, simple and beautiful space, very friendly and helpful host and delicious fresh food. I will definitely return.“

“Thank you for the wonderful and amazing food and beautiful presentation that your cooks make every time for every one for every meal. The food is amazing, fresh and delicious, the staff is friendly, the service quick and delightful and the price is very reasonable.“

“Great spot. Close to campus. Reasonably priced. The green salad came with black sesame sauce which was both delicious and unique. All the sushi rolls were good. We came for lunch and had the sashimi, nigiri, and beef teriyaki bento boxes. They were all fantastic. The side of tempura had a broccoli tempura - which is rare. The colour and crispness of the tempura was light and clean - indicating that the oil they used must have been a good quality and relatively “fresh”.

We would definitely come back again.“

“got the tobitama sunset and the tempura bento. amazing!“

“Absolutely love this restaurant !!! Icy cold beers served in frosty glasses. The food is excellent. Beef tataki is superb Tempura is superb. Found a new favourite roll "Cowboy roll " it's a definite MUST TRY Thank you @Tasteoftokyko for being consistently delicious“

“Food is great although a little bit longer wait but worth it“

“The food was great but the service and attentiveness was excellent! I'm newly celiac and the staff worked very hard to come up with substitutions to accommodate a strict gluten free diet and avoid any cross contamination. I told them let the chef decide for me and they brought out a beautiful platter of fantastic sushi, even decorated for the birthday we were celebrating. 10/10 will be back for sure (also the best pickled ginger in town!)“

“The place is clean and food is amazing, this place is my fave and the first place I've tried in Canada, since then I'm a fan, I've to all branches here in Victoria but this branch is my favorite cause the staffs are so friendly and amazing ?“

“This was one of those times for me . Should I go the old burger route or try something new.
I first asked to look at a menu and was given one right away. I don't claim to be the most sushi savvy person on Google. But I know what I like .
So always go with first choice or your intuition. My food was spectacular. And I love it when the chef gets a little artistic with the plate.
Service was excellent. Prices are right.
Sadly I live across the water in the USA or I would eat here at least once a week.“

“Just had our first dinner from J Kitchen and it was Delicious!! 10/10 we will be back :)“

“Great place to just grab lunch and relax in a down-to-Earth sort of vibe. Straight-forward, tasty food. Sometimes I ask for half a scoop of teriyaki sauce since in can be taste too sweet and overpowering if I eat here often. Not as budget-friendly as McDonald's, but great value nonetheless if you prefer regularly having Japanese food over McD. Wish there more more cheap, practical places like this to get ethnic foods in general.“
