Amazing delicious sashimi and Dinner Bento Box. Sashimi was super fresh and tasty loved it. I will definitely come back again and Highly recommended. Definitely 5 Star Appetizers-BBQ Pork was delicious. Looking forward to come back again read more

Pros: The combo tempura was piping hot and just *perfect*, with a fun assortment of veggies (crunchy green bean? almost creamy Japanese eggplant? Super cool.) I honestly haven't stopped thinking about it. The chow mein was also piping hot and extremely fragrant of garlic as the plate was set in front of me. I haven't stopped thinking of that succulent steam facial, either. I also had a root beer. Life should always be perfect tempura and your favorite soda. The service was great as well. They replied with a genuine "enjoy" to each of my "thank-you's", and also spoke very kindly and gave great service to the considerably under-spoken guy at the booth next to mine. Con: The place is old as dirt and needs to be gutted. I don't think it was 'sticky' tablecloth dirty, but I was pleasantly surprised that the bathroom was very clean and tidied. The smell when I entered the restaurant quickly let me know that something was wrong with the sewer lines, or something. Like, I almost left before anyone saw me stroll into the empty place, ok? There was a gal who was walking in to scope the place out for she and her friends as I was leaving. She didn't stay. I was waiting for an Uber as she hightailed it back to her car declaring "Well, I guess I haven't been there in a while..." into her phone. Overall, I'm glad I stayed to give an old place a new try for the first time in... 15 years? Not surprised that all of the orders were being picked up by DoorDash, etc, but also not surprised at how many orders were being pickup up, one after another. I need tempura and rooty beer this week. Not sure if I'd ever be brave enough to give their sushi menu a try, though. read more

Fuji Sushi - Combination Tempura - Sushi Bars Near Me - Soquel, California

Outstanding, outstanding. The food and service is excellent. The food at both Fuji Sushi and Golden Fu Wah are scrumptious. We had my daughter's 9th Birthday Party here!!! Amazing. The staff is wonderful. The kids and our friends became regulars. You can't find another restaurant like this. The ambiance is beautiful and so genuine. We love this place. Jenny, Jackson, the other Jenny, Aiden and Marcos! We had our party here, it was beautiful. Come visit! You won't regret it! Yum. read more

Anyone remember that old 70s TV show when Gomer Pile goes, "Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!" No one?!! Well neither did I until I went to Fuji Sushi! So I went because, to be honest, another place was closed. Haha. And then I remembered seeing high ratings for Fuji Sushi, and we were in the area, so we decided to give it a try. What was the big surprise was that we were there for...sushi, obviously. But when we walked in, the host (an older Asian man) asks, "Chinese or Japanese?" I seriously thought he was asking what ethnicity I was! I was so perplexed! Haha When ordering, we asked for recommendations. He named a few Chinese dishes. When we asked "what fresh fish do you have today?" He hesitated and didn't answer. No kidding... we asked 3x. Once he said, "Um, salmon and....." and then walked away. We only asked because the sushi bar had very skimpy pieces of fish in the glass fridge, so we were wondering if they had anything else in the kitchen? Apparently not. We decided to get a couple of the dishes he recommended and threw caution to the wind and ordered a cooked sushi roll (we didn't dare try raw fish since he avoided answering our question about fresh fish!) **What we ordered** Sautéed Stringbeans: 5 stars. Delicious. Authentic Chinese. Fresh, crispy, tasty! Great over rice (ordered separately). It came out first, and this hit the spot! Salt and Pepper Fish: 5 stars. Fried fish was crispy and peppers were spicy. The portion was huge! Love that it was over a bed of shaved cabbage for flavor and texture balance. Lion King Roll: 0 stars. *insert expletive here* I didn't recognize this as a roll or baked roll or any kind of sushi I've ever seen in my life. It looked like it was nuked and then thrown in the oven with some kind of cheesy cream sauce slipping off the top and died on the side, resembling cooked cerebral matter. It was incredibly unappetizing to see coagulated things on a sushi roll! The "salmon" was so overcooked that it was solid grey. HOWEVER, the Chinese food ROCKED! The moral of the review is to listen to the server/host and get what they recommend! If they don't mention the sushi, don't get the sushi! Also note: this is definitely classified as a Cheap Eats place. See photos. Furniture feels reminiscent to an 80s tiki hut that went under. Decor is mostly made up of paper goods visibly adhered with Scotch tape. The place wasn't warm or cozy either; it had a cold, eat-quickly-and-go vibe, probably because so many rooms were closed off with the lights out. Just know before you go: go for the Chinese food or get takeout! read more

First timer! I've seen this place a million times driving down Soquel Drive, but I never stopped. I took my daughter for Mother's Day dinner. I had the teriyaki chicken with tempora vegetables. My daughter had sushi. We had saki. Everything was really good. The owner makes his own soy sauce which is much better than bottled. Our server was excellent though the food was slightly slow to come out, but we didn't mind. The ambiance was not much to speak of, and that was not a problem. As it happens, the restaurant also serves Chinese food. Upon arrival, the host will ask which you prefer. I did notice a lot of people were doing take out. The place is clean, including the bathroom. We had a very nice time and I'm a fan boy now. This will be my go to Japanese restaurant. Everything was as it should be. read more

The food here is absolutely incredible! I like that there is something for everyone. You can eat Chinese or Japanese food here. The sushi is very fresh and if you like sashimi this is definitely the place for you. Also some of the best hot and sour soup I've ever had! The servers are also extremely nice and attentive. read more

Fuji Sushi - Sushi bar. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Soquel, California

Wow delicious and the service was great too! We decided to give Fushi Sushi a try even though we already have a few favorite Sushi spots, and we are so glad we did! The food was absolutely delicious and the portions were very generous, from the garlic edamame, to the miso soup, to the very fresh Sushi rolls. The Uni Sushi roll was an experience to eat and the Sashimi would melt in your mouth! Not to mention the service was super awesome. We truly appreciated the great service and will definitely be going back!! read more

Chinese restaurant with Sushi...went about as poorly as you'd expect. Slow service. Upset guests. Food was mediocre. Chinese restaurant swapped out decorations for Japanese things;badly in need of an update. Highlights: large serving of steamed veggies, and white rice. Recommendation: find a different sushi restaurant or just go to whole foods. read more

Mushy fish mediocre at best. Sushi market sprouts would have been half the price. Inside of restaurant was stinky

Everything that we ordered was 10/10. They cater to all kinds of diets (I'm vegan and have so many things to choose from with their extensive menu). HUGE portions with the food, we always have leftovers afterwards! Kind and sweet servers. Food comes out super quick. I would come all the time if I lived closer. Support small businesses! read more

We had the Ko Ramen and tom yum ramen with shrimp. Both were so good! everyone was friendly and attentive. We will visit again next time we're in town. read more

Fuji Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Soquel, California

Yuckola. Excited to try out a new restaurant around the corner... sushi in Soquel! But the food was terrible. The agadashi tofu was dry and flavorless fried tofu with no sauce (when we asked for some they just gave us soy sauce). The bowl of edamame was huge but it was undercooked and we couldn't eat it. The sweet potato fries were greasy and floppy. I ordered ramen which was a mistake, it was lukewarm and tasteless. My husband got a sushi roll which he said was okay but not particularly good. We ordered a lot of food and ended up leaving most of it there, it wasn't worth taking home for leftovers. Turns out this is the old mediocre Golden Fu Wah restaurant with the same staff and chefs now masquerading as a sushi bar to capitalize on sushi's popularity. It still smells like sewage in there and everything is dirty. I definitely don't advise eating raw fish in a place like this. read more

Best Chinese food in town and excellent service by Jenny best in house and Chris best green beans ever highly recommend!!!!! read more

Fuji Sushi - Szechuan beef, house chow funn, chicken fried rice, kung po chicken and combination plate A - Sushi Bars Near Me - Soquel, California

First up, the Ko ramen, which now haunts my dreams--rich, creamy, and deeply satisfying broth, golden brown melt-in-your-mouth pork, and tooth-sinkable noodles, served in one of those huge ceramic ramen bowls. Simple,, well executed chicken yakitori--crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, with a subtly sweet and savory sauce. And of course, the sushi, which hits the spot with consistently fresh fish. You can tell that the owner, Jackson puts his heart into this place. A great example of his dedication is his house-made soy sauce, dark, complex, and perfectly complementing the sushi. read more

We LOVE Fuji Sushi (which is also Golden Fu Wah Restaurant) for so many reasons. First of all, the food is always superb. Part of our family likes Japanese food and part likes Chinese food. Everyone found menu options they could enjoy. The food was cooked perfectly and very flavorful. We love peking duck, and when we called ahead of time and requested it, they were able to prepare it for us and it was FANTASTIC. One thing that is really special about Fuji Sushi is that we feel so welcome and cared for when we are there. We enjoy going there for both regular meals out, and have used their back room for birthday celebrations as well. We'd give 10 starts in this review if we could. read more

Cute spot! Stopped in with my buddy after a hike @ Land of Medicine Buddha and sat at the bar. Our sushi chef Jackson was a kind host, very friendly & responsive to our inquiries. The food was great, we had a couple Mackerel Nigiri, a Yellowjack Nigiri, abalone & a fried spicy salmon roll. Good service, tasty food, I'll be back, baby! read more

Wow. Ramen was good!!! Service is always wonderful here. Great spot for Chinese.. and now Japanese!?! I think I saw some Korean items too. One stop shop. Hahaha read more

Beautiful restaurant with a peaceful atmosphere. We were seated immediately and the staff were attentive and kind. The menu is very diverse and everything tasted fresh and amazing! We only waited about 10 minutes max for our food and then the manager came to personally check-in and learn our names. Amazing hospitality from the whole restaurant. We will absolutely be eating here again! read more

Yummy miso ramen, and great service. Walking distance from work so I will definitely be back.

They have Chinese food as well--this restaurant used to be Golden Fu Wah and they still serve the food they used to have as a Chinese restaurant! Portions are large and tasty and service is good. I tried the sushi too which was of good quality. read more

Sushi was very tasty and flavorful! Ambiance was very nice and staff was very friendly

Sashimi was amazing, big fresh pieces of fish. Also had a side of beef chow fun which was delicious. Small business only open less than two months, with great service. I highly recommend to come stop by and give them a try! read more

This place was fairly new so we didn't know what to expect. At first glance it wasn't the most well kept place but the sushi definitely proved us wrong. We ordered the Santa Cruz roll, Happy Roll, and the omakase. The omakase was not like the picture but still had about 4 types of fish. This is surprisingly the only location in Santa Cruz that had this so we were very excited to try. The fish was very fresh and they even had fresh wasabi and homemade soy sauce to pair with it. The Happy roll came wrapped with cucumber which was hard to eat but still pretty good and refreshing. If you like soft shell crab I would recommend the Santa Cruz roll. It was full of flavors and different textures that complimented each other. The server and the owner were extremely nice. I would come back again. read more

Best sushi/Chinese spot in Santa Cruz! Great food, excellent atmosphere and the staff is very friendly. We're addicted to the Szechuan green beans. Whether ordering Chinese or Japanese, it's always the best dining experience with great portions! read more

Man where do I even begin. This is the best place in all the land for Chinese food. I drive all the way from San Jose just for this place. For my money you just can't beat 'em. The Mongolian beef, kung pao chicken are my favorites. Along with the organic garlic eggplant. Healthy delicious number one Chinese food. read more

Friendly staff and fish tastes very fresh. They have a large menu and still have their Chinese menu so there's something for everyone. Happy a new spot opened in the neighborhood. read more

The sushi here was incredible. Every roll we had was delicious, big pieces & extremely fresh.. My husband ordered sashimi, the pieces were HUGE and the freshest fish I've had in awhile. Must visit in Capitola. Don't be discouraged by the rough atmosphere. It's a hole in the wall gem for sure. read more

Last Saturday afternoon, we had lunch at Fuji Sushi for the first time and we were very impressed by the outstanding service we received.

This place is amazing... the food is delicious and the people are super friendly... they serve sushi and authentic Chinese food... this is a family owned and operated restaurant that offers great family friendly place at a great price the portions are huge and the prices is very reasonable read more

Fish was fresh- excellent- beautiful presentation. Soy sauce is home made. We had the Deluxe Sashimi, Dragon Roll and Rainbow roll. it was a cold day, the waitress brought out a pot of green tea for us, noting that we might want to be warmed up. Another service provider brought out a free sample of a couple of pieces of a roll with avocado on top. Service was excellent. We never felt neglected. Highly recommend. read more

When it was golden fu wah i had given the Chinese food 4 stars. Not sure what changed, or maybe just a bad day, but got #2 dinner ( which i have had 3 times previously, and enjoyed). Rice was dry, and taste of frozen veggies in it. The hot and sour soup was tasty like before, but only half of cup filled. The chicken was really dry. It just feels like the dishes got less sauces. I haven't tried the sushi or Japanese food. read more

We were hungry and stuck in traffic and decided to give this place a try... oh man! I'm so glad we did, they have Chinese and Japanese food, both equally amazing and delicious. We have the short ribs appetizer, 3 different rolls and some Mongolian beef with pork fried rice and miso soup (combo special)... please give this place a try, you won't be disappointed. The price for card and cash is a bit different and they show this in the menu and also on the bill. We definitely come to try more dishes and the ramen. read more

The food was great and service was friendly and fast! I would definitely eat here again.

Very good! We ordered to-go and received Edamame, Pork Goyza, Cherry Roll, Fuji Volcano Roll, Tobiko Nigiri and Maguro Nigiri. We can't wait to order again and again. read more

super good food for a super good price! I never ever have leftovers, especially with sushi, but after one bento box (3 choices) I was rolling out of there with a to go box of leftovers in hand. staff was super friendly as well even though we got there only 40 min before closing and basically left 20 minutes after it closed. they never once tried to rush us and in fact made sure to let us know not to rush one bit. would definitely go back!!! read more

The food is delicious! We had the chicken kung pao and the Szechuan tofu. It was amazing, fresh and flavorful. The tofu had a bit of a crisp but soft inside. The kung Pao had a lot of chicken and vegetables. Jenny served us and is delightful. read more

Awful. Just awful. I met my daughter and her boyfriend there. I should have known it was awful when I walked in and there were more staff than patrons. The waitress asked if we were eating chinese of japanese. Woudl there be a different menu if we said Chinese? The waitress seemed like she was in a hurry to take our order because she must have asked us every minute or two if we were ready to order. Finally, my daughter and her bf ordered the chicken/rice plate. I ordered the salmon plate. They brought out salad first. A woman came over and repeatedly told us we needed to try the "home made" dressing. We were polite, but she would not leave until we actually tried it. It was fine, nothing special, but we felt bad so we had to lie and tell her it was fantastic. Soon, our dinner came: three chicken bowls. I told the waitress I ordered salmon, however, there was no attempt to fix it. I even asked my daughter/bf if I ordered salmon. They both confirmed it. While we were eating the plain, flavorless chicken, a man came over, who asked us if we liked the salad dressing!!! We told him it was fine, but he continued, telling us it was homemade. OK. LET US EAT. I don't care. It was friggin' salad dressing. When the bill came, there was no attempt to make it right for my dry chicken instead of salmon. Whatever. I'm not the guy that's going to make a big deal about it, so I paid the bill and politely left. We all agreed we will never return. read more

Great food and nice staff. Definitely recommend going here. It was grand opening and food is delicious. There is a parking lot behind the building and easy access read more
