I think Fuji is very clean and they serve quick and they're very nice and I really appreciate the service. I used to go there a lot but I had to stop eating a lot of rice because my condition I'm doing a lot better so I'm able to go back and I eat a lot more different variety of things that don't consist of rice. Thank you

I've eaten here at least once a week, (most of the time more) for around 13 years and this is the most consistent restaurant you could possibly eat at. The service is always quick and the prices even though they have went up recently are still incredibly affordable.

This gem was in walking distance so we had to come in and were glad we did. Very low ambiance and chill vibe. Wasnt crowed and we were sat and waited on quickly. The kitchen is open faced and whoever this beautiful expo was, was killing the game. It wasn't crowed but they were busy, with take out I presume. Had the ragoons and spring rolls which were both fresh, fast, and fire. For din din we tried the steak and chicken hibachi.... EXCELLENT. Especially the gazed carrots on the side, yes please. Only thing that could have been better was the rice but over all I really loved the whole experience.

I ate there today with my family. There were six of us and everyone loved their food. They tried the onion soup as well as the crab lagoon which was amazing. Annabelle, was our waitress and she was the best. We never had to ask for a thing. She was so nice and the service was great. Will definitely eat there again. Cam on Annabelle. (Thank you Annabelle)

Me and my mom ate here while I was in town for Christmas. This place used to be always busy but there was nobody in there but us and the workers. They probably get more take out than anything. The food was really good and we split a plate because they always give you alot and we got crab ragoons which was delicious with the sauce! Thanks Fuji Yama. Never disappointed.
