Fujinoya — Restaurant in Town of Greenburgh

A cozy local spot that is fantastic for Japanese food, especially reasonably priced sashimi and rolls! The interior is lovingly decorated from the ceiling (parasols are hanging downwards) to the screens between tables, but note that dining space is limited. We went on a weekend evening right before 7pm and there was no wait along with ample parking spots. By 8pm, there were people in the waiting area and only one parking spot. I would recommend arriving for dinner on a weekday from 5-7pm to enjoy their dinner bento boxes, which are only available for dine-in.

Very friendly staff who gladly served us tonkatsu as an appetizer (off-menu) instead of a main dish when asked. Our food arrived within 15 minutes and we particularly enjoyed the sashimi, which was fresh and generously thick for the price (less than $30 for an assorted plate with 10+ pieces). A surprise star of our meal was the agedashi (deep-fried tofu) at $9.50 which was packed with umami and a palatable texture. We unfortunately would not recommend the shoyu ramen ($15) as the soup flavor was too light for our tastes with rather dry pork chashu lacking the oomph we expected and noodles that did not live up to the usual springiness of ramen. Fortunately, there are other dishes to enjoy, such as the takoyaki (octopus balls - $9.50) and rice bowls.

We will be back to try out more rolls and other appetizers! I recommend visiting this place if you crave affordable, delicious Japanese food in a casual...

We had a really good lunch at Fujinoya the other day. We got there a little after 12 (when they open) and were quickly seated. It’s a fairly small restaurant with fairly plain decor and low lighting. We ordered the gyoza, shrimp tempura rolls, and the sushi regular lunch special. The sushi came with 7 pieces of regular sushi (which are the same ones listed in the sushi lunch description), california rolls, and miso soup. Honestly this was my first time trying real sushi and it was all really good! I think some of the sushi didn’t have a ton of flavor, but not sure if that’s typical. I’m also not sure what the difference is between the sushi regular and sushi lunch special is because they seem the same with a $10 difference. I guess it could be a portion thing, but honestly the portion of this was already really small and kind of expensive. Another quick note would be that they close at 2 and reopen again at 5-9 so keep that in mind! I’d definitely come back because I’d like to give the rolls and...

This restaurant offers an average dining experience when compared to Japanese establishments in NYC. While the prices are somewhat high, its convenient location and the availability of a small, complimentary parking lot are definite pluses. The sushi rolls are passable, but there was a notable issue with the fish head being served cold, diminishing its overall taste to below that of homemade quality. The Ramen, unfortunately, does not stand out either. The noodles lack the distinctiveness of handmade texture, feeling more akin to those found in instant products like Shin Ramyun. In summary, this place could be an acceptable option if you're in Hartsdale and unable to find another Japanese restaurant nearby. However, if you have the opportunity to travel to NYC, I would recommend doing so for a more authentic and satisfying Japanese culinary...
