I've been to Fugakyu twice and I've eaten sushi from many different restaurants in many cities. Fugakyu is the only place where I've actually become sick from eating sushi. First, I think their sushi tastes pretty good which is why I went a second time (I thought getting sick the first time was a fluke). Specifically, I like their rainbow maki, ebi mango maki, lobster maki and spicy tuna. Their oyster tempura maki and volcano maki are just okay. I've tried a few others but can't remember them right now. Second, I like the layout and decorations of their restaurant. Try to get a private booth, otherwise you'll be sat at a table in a small room packed tightly with other tables. Third, I dislike the service. The servers aren't very friendly and they're very pushy. This is not the type of place to enjoy your time as they are looking to turn tables as soon as possible. Also, we went to the bar to get drinks while waiting for the table and the bartender totally ignored us. Fourth, the lobster sashimi is not for the feint of heart. They cut the lobster's tail and claws away from the body and place the head at the top of the dish. The lobster is obviously dead, but its nervous system is still working and it was really weird eating this lobster's raw meat while its severed head continued to move. Fifth, I can't say why I've gotten sick both times I've tried Fugakyu but it's happened and I will never go back now.
Pros: Sushi tastes good
Cons: It will make you sick
