I am trying out all the sushi restaurants in town. So far I didn't really have much good impression from others so I tried this place after reading some good reviews. I don't know.. maybe my expectation is too high. I am from a huge city where you can see excellent quality, yet affordable sushi places every corner of the street I really miss good sushi.. we ordered sushi and sashimi boat for 2 people, it looked amazing but taste wasn't as good. It's not bad but The way they age fish for sushi is just not my style.. not much flavor, not too fishy, but really not much flavor. After a few bites, I got pretty tired of it, couldn't eat more even tho there were all different kinds, it didn't taste different or flavorful.. even tho i'mm eating different kind, it tasted like same thing repeat, not satisfying for the price. People were super super friendly ,nice and polite so I feel bad that I'm leaving a negative review. My boyfriend who's from here liked it so I guess it's good for fairbanks quality. we'll come again to try other items :) cabbage salad, miso soup was great. Maybe I try rolls next time !!

As a life-long Fairbanks resident, I have been coming to Fuji since they opened when I was in high school. This place is my favorite sushi joint in town, not only because of the large bay windows, and smaller cozy atmosphere, but the employees are always so kind, and I've never had a meal I did not like. for a few years, I was going so often that they even knew my order. I always get the Dinosaur roll, and its been consistent every time I have gone. Love this place, it will always be a favorite.
The freshest sushi I had in a while. Shrimp tempura, salmon, spicy tuna. All was delicious. Oreo tempura was an interesting order- probably better when fresh and not cold/soggy. Also get the Tuna pizza, fresh and tasty.

Great sushi bar with the best Sashimi deal in town!
Did not expect such a great Hibachi experience in a small town. From being seated right away to the showmanship & food quality/pricing, this place was great.

Went for 20 year anniversary, best food in Fairbanks. Undiscovered by many and I'm ok with that. Hibachi or Sushi is great. Go for the yum yum sauce. Rice is nice and fluffy like it's supposed to be.

My absolute favorite sushi restaurant. This is our regular date night destination. Service is friendly and attentive. We almost always order the yam roll and the love roll. Our son likes the chicken katsu and pork katsu. If we are feeling fancy we order a hot sake, if we are feeling fun we order bubble tea.

Outside appearance is a little sketchy but the interior is OK. Wide selection of seafood. Seems popular with locals. Fish is FRESH.Vegetarian options: Vegan available.
Great experience! Was seated immediately, with caring service.

For $14 you get a whopping 9 pieces of Fried Calamari / squid rings. Way too overpriced no matter where you are, similar story for the rest of the food. Waiter is very nice though.

Always delicious food and friendly staff with great suggestions.
Fuji has been one of our favorite places ever since they opened. I've tried virtually all their special rolls over the years and have always been pleased. That they remember my tea whenever I come in is especially sweet.

I really like Fuji. Dine in and take out orders come fast. I've had several kinds of sushi and appetizers here. I saw someone left a bad review about the Boba several months ago. Last time I got it they did give me a Boba straw and it was a very good Strawberry Boba. They actually called to tell me they were out of taro, which was no big deal. I had never tried Strawberry so it was kind of a good thing. I can splurge here on date night with the special rolls or when I still want to eat out on a budget they have many bento boxes and dinner boxes for cheaper and you get A LOT of food with those. I notice that they don't use peeled shrimp. It's something that I wasn't used to, but I've actually grown to like the added texture and flavor. The atmosphere is very nice and relaxing. The staff is very kind. Oh and try the fried cheesecake!
