Key facts
Three sushi restaurants operate on Amelia Island, plus a Japanese steakhouse with a sushi bar, two Thai kitchens, a bao specialist and an Indian kitchen. Two are downtown; the rest sit along Sadler Road and the 8th and 14th Street corridors, and two of them are next door to each other.
Our picks
Kabuki Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar
Kabuki Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar is a restaurant at 1147 Amelia Plaza. We have confirmed its address, phone number and website directly (2026-09-10); opening hours and prices are not confirmed, so we do not publish them here.
Eight kitchens, and as with pizza the useful sort is by street rather than by ranking.
Downtown
- Akari Sushi — 29 South 3rd Street
- Wicked Bao — 232 North 2nd Street
Both inside the historic district, both walkable from Centre Street.
Sadler Road
- Fancy Sushi — 1478 Sadler Road
- Thai Spice Cafe — 1460 Sadler Road
Those two addresses are on the same block, which is either convenient or a decision you now have to make on the pavement.
8th and 14th Street
- Mini Drunken Noodle — 510 South 8th Street
- Curry Island Indian Kitchen — 1120 South 14th Street
- Ha Na Sushi — 1930 South 14th Street
Amelia Plaza
Kabuki Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar at 1147 Amelia Plaza is the one worth reading carefully before you book: it is a teppanyaki steakhouse that also runs a sushi bar. A griddle in the middle of your table is a different evening from a sushi counter, and people reserve the wrong one.
On sourcing, and on what is not here
Fernandina Beach is a working shrimping port, which sounds as though it should mean something for sushi and mostly does not — sushi-grade sourcing is its own supply chain. We have confirmed nothing about any kitchen's, so we claim nothing. Ask.
What we have not confirmed on this island: Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino or Chinese. That is a limit of our records as much as a fact about the island, but it is better said than glossed over. See seafood for what this coast does have a genuine claim to.
We publish no opening hours, prices or menus for any restaurant on this island, because we have confirmed none, and several kitchens here close days of the week out of season. What every venue below does carry is an address, a telephone number and an official website, each checked on 10 September 2026. Ring before you walk.

Frequently asked questions
- Is there sushi in Fernandina Beach?
- Yes — three dedicated sushi restaurants plus a Japanese steakhouse with a sushi bar, all listed on this page with a confirmed address, telephone number and official website. Akari Sushi at 29 South 3rd Street is the downtown one.
- Is the sushi in Fernandina Beach made with local fish?
- Ask the kitchen. This is a working fishing port, but sushi-grade fish is a particular supply chain and we have confirmed nothing about any venue's sourcing. Treat any sourcing claim you read anywhere, including here, as unverified unless the restaurant itself makes it.
- What Asian food other than sushi is on Amelia Island?
- Two Thai kitchens, a bao specialist and an Indian kitchen, all on this page. We have confirmed no Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino or Chinese restaurant on the island — that is a limit of our data as much as of the island, and Jacksonville is the answer for that range.
