About Fuji Hiro

Back in 1997, Fuji Hiro was the first Japanese restaurant to open in Leeds and more than two decades later it’s still going strong. The intimate 40-cover restaurant is close to the Merrion Centre and decorated in traditional style with Japanese art adorning the walls and old sake bottles spread around the room. Chef-patron Victor learned his trade in Japan and he has put together a concise and tasty selection of dishes with friendly staff on hand that are happy to guide you and make recommendations. Takeaway is also available for collection and delivery.

Booked in for my birthday the other day and had a lovely time. Best ramen I’ve had in the UK so far, the restaurant is a cute little gem hidden behind the merrion centre, and not many people were dining there at the time which made for a nice intimate atmosphere. The staff gave me a free dessert with candles which made it so special. Impeccable food and great experience, will be coming back soon!

I’ve been here a couple of times the food is amazing and the service is great. If you want great sushi and authentic Japanese food this is the place to be!!

Known this place a long time, always great food & great value, staff are really nice, love the place - the gyoza are great but popular so sometimes run out - get in early :)

Me and my family have been coming to Fuji Hiro for YEARS, easily 15 years. I do miss the old faces but the new changes are welcome - the new additions to the menu are great, the sushi, fried chicken and steamed buns are an absolute treat but nothing will beat the best Gyoza I’ve ever had. I constantly tell people to visit Fuji hiro which I now regret as I tried to visit on a Wednesday and they were fully booked and when I went this Wednesday; I booked and it was extremely busy but staff were good even under the pressure. It is worth the wait and I can’t sing their praises enough.

A few suggestions for the restaurant: 1: I had a chicken katsu curry bento. Please look at your competition for ideas eg kokoro as the chicken was flat and dry. 2: Please ensure that you are using Sushi rice and not long grain rice. Long grain is more difficult to pick up with chopsticks 3: Could the waitress turn down the volume when she is talking to the kitchen staff as it sounded like she was berating them for something. the customers don't need to hear this. 4: If you are going to advertise sushi, please can it be available Positive was the free flowing green tea and the Enka music playing

I hadn’t been to Fugi hero since before lockdown. We decided to go for my birthday last minute and booked online to go on the evening. After fighting our way through rush hour traffic we were disappointed to hear that they don’t accept on the day booking. They rants need to change their booking system so people cannot book on the day. Very sad to be turned away as I had booked, my children were hungry and it was my birthday. Disappointed! The food and price were always good in the past hence the rating

Disappointing start as they were full and I’d made a booking. They allow same day bookings but then claim they don’t get informed about same day bookings so don’t reserve a table. I’m guessing normally they can cope with this but there was an event on at the arena so the area was packed. Why not put something on your web site to avoid this?

We enjoyed our first visit yesterday. The food was delicious, the portion sizes were amazing and very reasonably priced. The dishes recommended by the team were great. We will definitely be going back to try some more of the menu. Overall a fantastic first experience and excellent value food.
