Manahawkin Fuji72 Hibachi & Sushi

We were celebrating a bon voyage with 5 other friends. We waited a bit for our reserved hibachi table but not too long. We were started off with a house Japonese salad and a bowl of miso soup which was outstanding. I had a sushi sampler for an appetizer, the tuna was fresh and good. For our main meals we had the filet mignon, shrimp, chicken and fresh white tuna served in the standard hibachi style, complete with grilled vegetables and grilled rice with the whole typical hibachi chef show. Everyone seemed happy with their food with the shrimp maybe being the best, tuna was a bit overcooked. The place is quite loud during rush hour with people celebrating birthdays at almost every table. All in all a fine experience, pretty much what you would expect from these types of Japonese restaurants

I travel from coast to coast all the time and this has been the absolutely BEST place I have found and is my new obsession lol. Not a single thing I have had here has been anything less than AMAZING!!

The food here is genuinely great — high quality, consistent, and full of flavor. Unfortunately, the service overshadowed what should have been a really enjoyable experience. It felt like the staff was very focused on turning tables quickly. We were there during Valentine’s Day weekend celebrating a friend’s birthday, and while I understand it was a busy time, the pressure to leave felt excessive. We had ordered food and were still eating and drinking when another guest at our table placed an additional order to take home. The waitress visibly rolled her eyes, which was uncomfortable. After that, she repeatedly walked past the table every few minutes, staring in a way that made us feel rushed and unwelcome. Later, I asked the owner/manager if someone could sing happy birthday.

Made a last minute reservation on a lousy beach day and went in with low expectations but was not only pleasantly surprised, but impressed. Hibachi dinner was very good. Meat and seafood quality was good and portions outstanding. I also had a sushi appetizer which was outstanding. A welcome change from island prices I thought the prices here extremely reasonable and value for money top notch. We ordered varying hibachi dinners from the ny strip to chicken and steak and the Fuji which included lobster, filet, shrimp and scallops. BYOB.

First and last time visiting this place. From the very beginning, the experience was unpleasant. Even though we were the first customers as soon as the establishment opened, we were greeted with a negative attitude. The food was just “okay,” nothing special for the prices they charge. The worst part was the staff’s behavior. The servers seemed to be hovering, waiting for tips. My son left a reasonable tip for the chef, and even after paying a $70 bill for only two people, we were stopped in front of all the customers so they could demand more tips, while the servers stared at us and talked among themselves. It was truly embarrassing and completely unprofessional. In the end, my son ended up giving three times more than he should have just to avoid further discomfort. If you want to throw
