“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!“

“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“

“delicious and wonderful service“

“We love Bao in Louisville. We are so happy that this restaurant has survived the Louisville fire. This year our family ordered a Bao Christmas. We ordered sushi appetizers and dinners to go. All of the food was amazing. It was all hot fresh and high-quality. The manager is amazing and ensures every customer is taken care of. This is one restaurant that is always consistently excellent! We love you all and are so happy you are safe.“

“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!“

“Great food great service“

“Our first time dining at this place though we have wanted to go for a while after someone posted about it after they opened. Finally made it and glad we made reservations as it was packed since it was peak time Friday evening. Spoke with Koji-san, the owner, while we were waiting for our table and he also stopped by each table to check on them which we thought was great. We had the takoyaki, kaisen-mix okonomiyaki and the spicy miso ramen. All came within a reasonable amount of time and were delicious! Koji-san explained the background of offering takoyaki, which was so interesting and great for him to share. We will definitely be back to try the other menu items, esp their sushi, which looked delicious! Great to see a business busy and doing well!“

“Best sushi place in Boulder, and rivals the upscale sushi restaurants in Denver! With a more casual atmosphere, and high quality food and service. The sushi chefs and servers are friendly and welcoming, and make sushi fast. Some of our favorites are off the chef recommendation menu. A must try is the aged Toro! Thank you to the dedicated staff / restaurant owners that keep this place running and keep serving delicious food.“

“Fast and convenient service. My takeout was whisked home in no time. Crispy shrimp and veggie tempura paired with their Katsu Chicken Curry was exactly what I needed on a chilly night.

Simple, yummy, and satisfying with some iced green tea.“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here. The kids loved the egg drop soup. The whole family enjoy the sushi rolls, and the tofu lo mein perfectly completed our meal.

Vegetarian options: Great entree options with tofu and many vegetarian sushi roll options. We loved the sweet potato tempura sushi roll and shiitake sushi roll. The tofu lo mein had a generous amount of tofu in it.

Kid-friendliness: Peaceful eating environment and staff was friendly to our kids. They had great kid cups with lids and nice straws too.“

“Good value on yummy food with large portions. The staff is friendly. Family fav“

“The owner’s fun character The art of the owner’s sushi and quality Sushi rice is the best“

“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.“

“😋😋 good eating experience“

“Went to Benihana today. Spent close to $200. Service was horrible! Food was okay but not great. Asked for a sushi appetizer which did not come until we had our meal. Server said they didn't have enough help to fix it. When the sushi came we did not have any sauce. We asked one of the helpers who was walking by and she told us we would have to ask our server. We literally had to get up and go ask someone. Ridiculous for the amount of money we paid.“

“Best games and environment of any arcade I've been to. The people make this place what it is. Absolutely my favorite arcade in the Denver metro area. Not too many places around like this in any corner of the world, and not to be missed!“
