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

“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!“

“By far our favorite - couldn’t recommend it more highly! Tou and Jason are wonderful hosts and we have never had an experience that was less than amazing the green lip muscles and Chirisi (sp?) bowl are favorites. Highly recommend!“

“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 came here with a small group of adults, and we had a wonderful experience. We mostly ordered rolls (several from the interesting specials menu). They were all delicious. Someone ordered Hijiki and I found it to be very tasty. The staff were above-and-beyond nice to us. The atmosphere was warm and lively. Based on this one visit, I'd highly recommend.“

“This is our family's favorite restaurant and has been for a very long time.
The food is incredible, always fresh, with new creative rolls all the time.
The service is amazing, everyone is so friendly and kind. They go out of their way to make you feel welcome. I recommend this place to everyone!“

“Hands down best ramen in Longmont. Very rich flavors. Reminds me of bomb places in New York. Unique little spot that always has the best food shows on the TV and feels like an absolute hidden gem. 100% go here👍Black garlic tonkatsu ramen is where it's at.“

“A hidden gem!! Also serves the best vegetarian udon and ramen in the area. Consistently fresh. Highly recommend this cute little place for takeout or sit in. 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.“

“Sushi Hana is excellent, they always have really good food and great service. Their fried rice and sushi is so good“

“Incredible sushi, wonderful service, lovely atmosphere :)“

“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“

“😋😋 good eating experience“

“Food was alright, I’ve had better suishi in boulder tbh. Just go next door if you want suishi. I think this is more of a place you go if you want more of a spread of Japanese food.

Service however was incredible!!! Jessica is a GOAT! Great suggestions very happy with the service!“

“I went on a Monday so Avanti wasn’t nuts like it is on weekends but the food was fantastic! I got the mushroom bowl and my sister got the seared tuna bowl. They were both delicious and beautiful. The service was great but in this type of atmosphere, “service” is really just taking your order and texting when it’s ready. It was pretty fast though.“

“delicious and wonderful service“

“Love this place, been a fan of the Loveland location for a long time. Longmont location doesn’t disappoint. Fairly priced and absolutely delicious, good selection of Sake. Highly recommend the Kobe Beef Buns and the Spicy Tonkotsu ramen!“

“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.“

“always excellent foods. 👍“

“Good food, good service, nice ambience.“

“The staff was great!! The food was just OK.“

“Get there early- this place fills up quick!“

“I was solo, so I didn't want to go to a full-service restaurant surrounded by parties of 2+, because I feel conspicuous. I also don't like the usual Restaurant Theater experience ("Hi, my name is... I'll be taking care of you today...would you like to start with..."). \n\nFuji was perfect for me. You order at the counter and find a seat. I went at 4 pm, and there was no one else eating in, just people getting take-out. I found a table, they brought my order (eel) it seemed like 2 minutes later. Their attitude was pleasantly welcoming. Not over-the-top friendly, which I've just learned is being termed "forced joy" at some companies -- and lo and behold, customers can tell it's forced and they don't like it!“

“Very clean and it was delicious. I had the Mochiko Chicken“

“Outstanding experience! Food was exceptionally fresh and flavorful. Enjoyed the atmosphere and sushi chef. Strongly recommend!“

“Let me start by saying I love teriyaki anything!!!
Here lately any podcast Ive been listening to has had an ad for Teriyaki Madness so when I drove down to Longmont, CO I made the decision to eat at Teriyaki Madness.
I absolutely love it all. I got the chicken Teriyaki with vegetables and noodles and an egg roll and it was all amazing. The only part I disliked was that I did not catch the name of the guy who took my order and helped me order because it was my first time there. He was amazing and kind and patient and made sure I was loving what I ordered. He's pretty awesome!
Oh, and I will be back...like a million times!!“

“Jesline Virginia should go back to Korea House when she has time to eat the wonderful food. It makes me homesick for the country where our four children were born. Dorothy Ogle“
