The service is excellent and the food is delicious as well as reasonably priced. I am picky as hell and this restaurant never ever disappoints. Thank you Udon Kaisha for taking such good care of our family.“

“New favorite sushi place!
The service was absolutely amazing. The waitress was so upbeat, kind, informative. When she found out it was our anniversary she came out with a piece of red velvet cake! As soon as we were done with a plate it was immediately taken off of our table, and she was prompt with asking us if we needed a refill!
We ordered the pork katsu box and several rolls of sushi and a few pieces of nigiri. Everything tasted absolutely amazing. We loved it! We will definitely be back sooner rather than later!

Vegetarian options: Vegetable tempura and several options for veggie rolls. I tried the eggplant nigiri which was amazing!“

“My Go To place for the best lunch specials! 🍽️ MtFuji is my happy place🤗especially on difficult work days. 10/10 such a comfortable atmosphere and the staff is always amazing, so friendly and helpful. 😋The fried rice is my absolute favorite and I love that all the lunch specials come with the most delicious little salad and miso soup. 🥣 Their sushi 🍣 is also phenomenal and reasonably priced. Definitely a place you should check out if you’re up north!“

“Start with the bad , fried rice was bland . Other than that everything was great . Server Jamaica was excellent, and even stopped me from cleaning up after my toddler . Got beef and broccoli 🥦 which was piping hot and delicious. Sauce was not too salty and not too sweet . Carrots and Broccoli were cooked perfectly, not mooshy , right shade of green and still a touch crunchy which is how I like my veggies . Pan fried Gyoza 🥟 were perfectly crispy , mouth watering and a crazy good price for happy hour $6.00 what ! Happy Hour Saki also fantastic deal . Great flavor , great staff !“

“I go here with my mom so much, and I know most of the employees and they know us. They are so nice, bring food quickly, and the sushi is AMAZING. Basically the only sushi restaurant I ever go to. Love this place. Agedashi tofu is out of this world“

“This is one of our go to sushi spots in the area. Great sushi and drink selection. Really love their lunch specials, especially the bento box. It typically comes with shrimp and vegetable tempura, rice, soup or salad (both if you get the salmon bento), and 4 pieces of either tuna roll or California roll.

Also love that there is hardly ever a long wait, that there are lots of table options, and that the vibe is casual. Service is also awesome.“
