Fuji Steakhouse in Needham?

Hi there, I came across their web site this morning. I'd never heard of it, but it looks pretty cool from photos, and their menu seems pretty varied and intersting. Has anyone ever gone? What are your thoughts? What's good and what to avoid? Thanks!

I have been there once; seems to be a pretty typical japanese steak house (out of the Benihana mold) with the addition of sushi; I have been told that the sushi is pretty good, the rest is pretty average. Seems to be popular for parties for youngsters. Personally, I wouldn't go back but that's just me.

I'll second this. The sushi is passable and the rest there should be skipped. If you want Japanese/sushi, leave Needham. If you want a good restaurant in Needham Center, go to Sweet Basil.

Thanks for the heads up - we ended up at Dish instead (I know, nowhere near Fuji!) Dish was very good though - great pizza w/ground lamb!
