Fuji East Japanese Bistro offers an intimate dining experience with fresh, high-quality ingredients and prompt service. The restaurant's lunch menu, featuring sushi and soup, is particularly noteworthy. Customers praise the sushi's excellent proportions and the variety of delectable dishes, including fried rice and bento boxes. The ambiance is also described as pleasant and well-decorated.
The sushi is very delicious and reasonably priced, with lunch specials costing less than $20 per plate. Customers enjoy the flavorful tuna avocado rolls and spicy salmon rolls, as well as the fresh and tasty wasabi and ginger. The sushi and roll combos, such as the salmon nigiri, are also highly praised for their softness and umami flavor.
The restaurant is small, but customers can often find a seat without a reservation. The combination meals are a hit, offering a variety of dishes like soup or salad, shrimp and vegetable tempura, shrimp shumai, California roll, rice, and a choice of protein on a bed of caramelized onions. The service is prompt, and the staff is polite and friendly, providing an excellent value for the money and a gorgeous, quiet atmosphere.
