A really nice Japanese bistro with a great patio. Definitely recommend reservation since it can get super busy. The service is really attentive and nice. We ordered unagi fluffy omelette rare. The unagi is rare and the omlette is so soft and fluffy - it melts in your mouth. We ordered the scallop crab miso cream udon. This was so so hearty and creamy. Was definitely my favorite. We ordered rhe lychee lassi cocktail. This was okay. Was refreshing but a bit too sweet for my taste. Definitely was expecting more lassi.
I tried the lunch gozen sets and they were so good! Each set comes with a mini udon, 6 pcs of battera sushi, sashimi salad and 2 kinds of kaarage. AO Set - snow crab and mentaiko miso cream udon, aburi salmon battera, sashimi salad, two kinds of kaarage ($35) Fuji Set - truffle and wagyu cream udon, bluefin negitoro battera, sashimi salad, two kinds of kaarage ($40) The snow crab and mentaiko miso cream udon was so rich and flavourful and I loved how creamy it was. The aburi salmon battera was delicious, the sashimi salad had a nice soy dressing, the chicken kaarage was very juicy and the corn was buttery. The truffle and wagyu cream udon was also creamy and delicious with tender bits of beef.
I had the Fuji Gozen shared between three of my friends and I, and since we weren't super hungry, it ended up being the perfect amount of food thanks to our servers recommendation. Overall, everything was well-executed and enjoyable, with a nice variety across the set. The only thing that didn't quite work for us was the arugula in the truffle wagyu udon, it felt a little out of place. I usually enjoy arugula, but the bitterness didn't quite pair well with the creamy udon base, so that combination came off a bit off-putting. Aside from that one element, everything else in the meal was really solid and thoughtfully prepared.
This place was so effing we good we ended up ordering more to try more dishes on their menu. You definitely need to try their sushi rolls. I was so impressed with this place.
Their service is excellent - attentive, friendly, knowledgeable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is lively and busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food is amazing!! Most of their cooked dishes are incredible. Their chirashi is not comparable to other sushi places around town but the rest of their cooked dishes are exceptional.
Went back for round two and the food was so good. Much better than I remember from the first trip. The fluffy omelette is so light and flavourful, I would go back just for that. The corn karaage were seasoned to perfection. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great service, and the retro interior has a lot going for it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
Came back to New Fuji last Thursday with a girlfriend and by chance, stumbled upon their fruit tart festival. We were so excited to try one of the delicious and pretty looking fruit tarts. We both chose the muscat and pistachio fruit tart. The tart has a delicious creamy filling and some crunchy bits on top (might be kataifi - like the viral Dubai chocolate kind haha). The Muscat grapes had a subtle sweetness with perfect jelly-like texture. Sadly, it was the second last day for the festival so I'm not sure when I will have the opportunity for another taste of these delicious desserts. We also ordered a couple of menu items for dinner. The charred caesar was interesting and had a smoky flavour profile, but was small in portion size. Salmon battera was a classic, but we both agreed the wagyu one was much better. The spicy miso egg udon was really tasty, but the saucy soup was quite salty and we wished there was a bit more udon. Nonetheless, I was scarfing down the soup by itself as it was so delicious. As always, service was seamless and wonderful. New Fuji...always a good time!
I would like to preface this by saying that Suika was one of my favourite restaurants of all time, and I found it to be the most affordable of the Kingyo group. New Fuji is quite good, but it is expensive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibes were great, the servers kind, but I left dinner peckish still.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had: -Truffle Corn Karaage (9$): Very tasty, but not quite as tasty as it was at Suika. The Suika Corn Fritters were so tasty, fried, and didn't have the corn cob (all kernels), whereas this does not have batter/crunch, but the seasoning is tasty. -Snow Crab And Mentaiko Peperoncino Yakiudon (24$): delicious but I found the portion small (esp of the crab). Usually I am not an Udon girl, but the slight spice cut through the cream. Umami, salty, creamy, delicious. -Shellfish Bara Chirashi (28$): Seafood tasted fresh, rice perfectly seasoned. However, still found it to be missing a bit of flavour. -Wagyu Sirloin Heart (21$): was the only disappointing thing. Found it to be slightly overcooked, a tiny portion, and the meat was sinewy. Overall, flavours and quality of most things were excellent, but found the portion sizes and prices to be disappointing. I understand that rent must be expensive, but alas this spot has not replaced the hole that Suika left in my heart
My friend took me to her favourite spot for lunch - New Fuji. I had never been before but I think it's my new fav spot now! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their space is pretty big, you can easily get a large group of people here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also have a patio that was closed when we went but they open it up during the summer which I would 100% come back for![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was SOOO sweet and everyone there was very warm. They also had coat check when you come in which was amazing because it was a very rainy day in Vancouver. We both got their set lunch menu - the set menu came with a medium sized udon, sushi, salad, chicken karage, and corn karage. I got their - Aka set lunch menu which had - wagyu sukiyaki udon (it was refreshing and comforting at the same time!), wagyu yukhoe battera (pressed sushi with wagyu tartar), wagyu roast beef salad (very fresh). Everything was so good! It was $35 for the set menu which I think was the perfect amount for the amount of food. They also have so many vegetarian options, I can't wait to go back here!
4.5/5- Definitely recommend coming here Prob one of the best meals i had on my vancouver trip. And i went to fat mao/ mackenzie room, other touristy places etc Their ao set menu was the best the salmon sushi is the main highlight and id recommend getting that. The udon with the set is very milky and good but I'd recommend the chilli rose carbonara yakiudon instead. Its not very spicy more creamy The salad tasted a bit too fishy for our liking and the corn karaage was so flavorful and good. Id say the corn karaage and salmon sushi were the standouts and ones id get individually. The rest were ok and id be interested in trying the other udons as well
I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got the chance. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant atmosphere is fun, with a retro-theming and open bbq that you can watch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It gets a bit smokey however, so if that bothers you, a heads up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Between 2 ppl we shared 4 dishes. The beef wrapped green onions, the negitoro pressed roll, the rośe carbonara, and strawberry daifuku for dessert. I'd say my least favorite item was the beef wrapped green onion. While the taste was good, the green onions were raw in the middle and hard to chew through. The carbonara was tasty but was a bit bland. The negitoro was good and generous portion, but once again didn't blow my mind. If anything, the dessert might've been my favorite item, as it's hard to find daifuku in Vancouver. Overall, I did find the restaurant cool and their food isn't "bad". But I was a bit let down by the lack of depth in flavor considering the price of the meal. I'd maybe come back to try their lunch sets, as they seem like a better deal.
This place was definitely on the higher end; everything was great but quite small (except the mackerel). Example: Wagyu chuck fillet-$29 but had 5 thinly sliced pieces. [[HIGHLIGHT]]As well, idk about the seating but we were a party of 5 sitting at the high tables with other parties, only separated by a low divider.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There wasn't space to put bags or jackets either so it just felt cramped and uncomfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Anyway, with the size some dishes were a bit sad, and some (eg. edamame) were too salty. If the portions were more reasonable I would maybe come back
[[HIGHLIGHT]]Decor inspired by 80's Japan and Andy Warhol this place is fantastic from a food curation service and pairing view.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The foods sets had one for carnivores two for omnivores and one for vegetarians. Desserts were cheap, subtly sweet and artistic. Everything was done thoughtfully [[HIGHLIGHT]]Like being in Japan[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
Review Insights
My first meal during my quick trip to Vancouver. I stopped by a Monday evening and sat at the high table. My friend and I shared the karage, corn ribs, seafood mentaiko carbonara udon, and an abalone rice. I was pleasantly surprised by the corn ribs usually they've been pretty dry in my experience but this was juicy and the sauce was flavorful. I also really enjoyed the udon it wasn't fishy and deliciously creamy. The abalone rice was also pretty pleasant but not my favorite of everything we got. read more
[[HIGHLIGHT]]We stopped by Fuji for an early dinner on Wednesday and the timing worked out well. The restaurant was pretty quiet when we arrived, got busier as the evening went on.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We started with a Long Island Iced Tea and a virgin ginger mojito. Both were refreshing, and the ginger mojito was especially nice if you're looking for a nonalcoholic option with a little kick. Food-wise, the mackerel was easily the highlight of the meal. It was flavorful, well prepared, and something I'd happily order again. We also had the pork cheek, which was enjoyable, as well as the chirashi bowl. The fish tasted fresh, but I wish the pieces had been cut larger. The smaller pieces took away a bit from the experience and made it feel less satisfying than it could have been. Service was smooth throughout our meal, and we never felt rushed even as the restaurant became busier. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'd recommend coming a little before the dinner rush if you want a quieter atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If it's your first visit, don't skip the mackerel, and definitely try one of the drinks. read more

Came back again to enjoy good service and even better food. We were a party of 5 and had to call to make a reservation. The lady made everything possible to get us in. As usual, food is so delicious. read more
Came here for my birthday and really enjoyed the whole experience! Inside is very aesthetic. Loved all the decor. We got late reservations at 9:30 (we are traveling on vacation so late dinner was ok). Service was great and attentive. It was pretty much last call right after we ordered but the servers were very sweet and made sure we got to try everything we wanted to order. Portion sizes of the entrees were very large and filling! We had: 1. Truffle corn karaage- must get. Great flavor and had me wanting more 2. Bluefin negitoro- had a nice crunch! 3. peach mojito- we got a pitcher, has their unique cola in it. Very delicious and could barely taste any alcohol 4. Snow crab, scallop and crab miso cream udon- super creamy 5. Mozza-mentai carbonara yaki-udon- more of Italian style carbonara/ just with udon and salmon roe 6. spicy wagyu miso egg udon- reminded me of tofu, beef soup (except without the tofu) 7. Mango parfait- this was ok. A little too much frosting for my liking but mangoes on top were very fresh The standouts were the Truffle corn karaage, Bluefin negitoro, and Snow crab, scallop and crab miso cream udon. Would come back one day to eat this again! read more
Food 3.5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 First time here and I'd recommend making a reservation because we didn't know, and my group had to wait about 45 minutes for a table for 4 which we didn't mind. Even though we only had an hour to dine before the next reserved group came in, it was fine since we had already picked out what we wanted while waiting. The interior is absolutely charming. As someone who loves vintage woody inspired decor, I was obsessed. The use of a record player as a table divider? Soooo clever! FOOD: UNI CREAM UDON- comes in biggg bowl like shockingly big!! The broth is rich, creamy, and the uni flavor really comes through. If you're a fan of uni this is for you. Only thing I didn't love was the bitter greens pretty sure it was arugula adding that was unnecessary and kinda threw the dish off and I say this as someone who loves veggies!!!! ABALONE CREAM BUTTER YAKIUDON - my friend's dish. I tried it and meh... wasn't bad, once it cooled down the texture and flavor started to fade so definitely a dish you want to eat while it's still warm. NEWFUJI LUNCH GOZEN - We got both the FUJI and AO sets. The truffle a5 wagyu cream udon from the Fuji set was our favorite! Tender beef and super savory. The udon in the Ao set tasted similar to the uni cream udon just without the uni. We preferred the aburi salmon battera over the bluefin negitoro battera, which lacked balance there was too much rice, not enough negitoro. DRINKS: okinawan craft cola - honestly so good this was an unexpected fave. peach passion mojito green grape lemon sour - green grape flavor wasnt really there, stronger on the alcohol side. ginger mojito DESSERT: HOKKAIDO MILK MOLTEN CHEESECAKE- Apparently we were the 3rd group to try their new dessert it was cheesecake topped with rum raisin ice cream. The rum was stronggggg but it actually worked. The ice cream paired with the cheesecake was good!! Overall staff was friendly, vibes were immaculate, and everything looked amazing like the plating, the interiors, even the drinks were super aesthetic. But in terms of taste, it didn't quite meet my expectations given the price point. Nothing was bad !!! but I was hoping to be a little more wowed. I'd still come back to try more and take my time but with a reservation next time loll! Side note- Thanks for letting me keep the bamboo straw!! I appreciate you!!! read more

I celebrated my birthday here with a friend not too long ago. I love ordering a variety of small dishes to share! My favourite is the cheese tofu with the creamy cheese dip. The fluffy "rare" unagi omelette and the snow crab, scallop, and crab miso cream udon are such comforting dishes. Though way too much to share with just two people. The restaurant was quite busy with a constant stream of guests coming in and out. Since I drove, I didn't try any of the cocktails so that's on the list for next visit. Service was great and fast. It was a bit loud in the restaurant but I think it adds quite nicely to the ambiance! Street parking is available. read more

Amazing service and food! Came by for their lunch sets and they are sooo worth the value! Ordered the wagyu aka lunch set for $35 which came with 2 types of kaarage, wagyu roast beef salad, wagyu battera and wagyu sukiyaki udon. Also added on the wagyu tendon yuzu udon and tried out their mojito with house made cola syrup! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything was delicious and the vibes were perfect![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more
[[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute spot with cool retro Japanese vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Really nice staff and good food. Wish their cocktails had more of a kick to it though. Nothing really bad to comment about other than perhaps parking might be a little hard to find in the area. However, we got lucky. We got there early and found a 1 hr free parking spot with no limits on Sunday. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was really cute in the restaurant - the decor was retro and cool.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got the chicken and truffle corn karaage. Chicken was juicy but corn didn't have much truffle flavour. Also got tofu cheese which was delicious and a Hamburg steak (so juicy and melt in your mouth). Definitely recommend these two! Got two creamy udons and they were also good but a lot of the dishes had arugula in it which have them all similar flavour profiles. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice cozy retro Japanese cafe tucked away on West 1st Ave in Kits area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Came on a recommendation by a friend and made reservation for the first table 11:30 AM. Server was nice but would not accommodate us to change the table to a more comfortable space. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice bar area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small restaurant with a mix of tables and booths and a patio that was closed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Menu had good selection. They have some lunch specials and à la carte menu items. Try one of the lunch specials. Pretty standard Japanese Izakaya/café type food. Strawberry Mojito was nicely done and not overly sweet. The snow crab udon soup was delicious. The salmon battera sushi was standard as was the sashimi salad. The chicken Karaage was pretty authentic and the grilled corn was nicely done. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall cozy, comfortable Japanese style retro Café in this neighborhood. Good for small groups and drinks[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. read more
Been for a few dinners at New Fuji. They're a few doors down from AnnaLena. Their empire continues to grow (Kingyo, Suika, Rajio, Raisu, Takenaka). It's a popular spot, make a reservation. You'll smell like bbq if you sit at the bar, but it's fun to watch the chefs/bartenders do their thing. - Strawberry meets lychee ($10.00 virgin) - Pear fantasy ($12.00) - Fluffy "rare" unagi omelette ($12.00) - egg was indeed fluffy. Decent amount of unagi - Truffle corn karaage ($9.00) - fine - Charred caesar salad ($12.00) - skip it - Ebi mayo ($19.00) - tasty battered shrimps - Bluefin tataki ($18.00) - standard fare - Chicken dashi karaage ($11.20) - excellent, juicy - Bluefin negitoro sushi ($29.00) - bluefin tuna was tasty, rice crackers added a crunch - Abalone kamameshi rice ($28.00) - average - Wagyu flakes & garlic kamameshi ($23.00) - best of the kamameshi dishes - Jumbo wagyu gyoza kamameshi ($24.00) - Squid ink paella kamameshi ($30.00) - flavours were mute, my least favourite - Mozza-mentai carbonara ($21.00) - similar to their udon offerings at Suika. Small portion - Strawberry almond tofu ($7.00) - Tiramisu parfait alle fragole ($12.00) read more
Must try new Japanese restaurant in Vancouver. They had the limited time parfait offering I had to try. My friend ordered the chirashi with Wagyu and uni, lots of them on top of the rice. She really enjoyed. I ordered one of the lunch sets with appetizers, oshizushi and udon. Everything was so good! Though it contains lots of carb that I worried, but the portion was just right I didn't feel too guilty. Unfortunately we were unable to try the parfait as we did not have time.. I really wish they will bring back the parfaits especially mont blanc with lots of chestnuts. Will be back to try other dishes on the menu. read more
I came here by myself on a week night at 6pm and got seated right away. Very friendly and attentive service. Super cute retro interior! I got the abalone hot rice and I thought it was just ok. Slightly buttery but nothing really notable. I looked the duck carpaccio which had umami, citrus notes, and a sweet glaze-- a nice balance of flavors. read more
When visiting Vancouver for the holidays, I was on a quest for new eats! New Fuji caught my eye with it's great reviews, enticing food, and aesthetically pleasing decor. This place is definitely a gem, and I imagine it could get quite busy. We walked in at an odd hour of 3 pm but the restaurant was full. Decided to share their A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Gozen, Okinawa craft col, and strawberry tiramisu. The gozen came with a small bowl of a5 miyazaki wagyu shabu shabu udon, chicken and corn karaage, sashimi salad, and the signature a5 miyazaki pressed sushi. The pressed sushi was by far my favorite and seemingly the most popular menu item, as the chef in front of me was preparing them one by one almost the entire time we were there! My least favorite item was the sashimi salad. The fish was extra fishy tasting, which I do not prefer. Another star of the show was their dessert. Strawberry tiramisu...oh my god!! I have been dreaming of it, it was perfect. Not too sweet, light, just all around fresh and delicious. Watching and experiencing how the staff here communicate is a delight. They all speak in Japanese and yell at each other (in a good way lol) enthusiastically about new orders and food status. I thought it really elevated the whole experience. If you're visiting beautiful BC, this is a great spot to check out. read more

On a chill Saturday afternoon, my partner and I were wandering Granville island when we realized it would be smart to make dinner reservations. We found New Fuji and saw that there was still space for a reservation, so I immediately booked one and this restaurant ended up being our favorite of the whole trip. We started with the fluffy "rare" unagi omelette, which was so good. The flavor was so rich while the texture was really delicate. After that we got the beef fillet which was also great. The meat was really juicy and served over arugula with fried garlic left for a great flavor combination. Next up the udon came out. We ordered the snow crab, scallop and crab miso cream udon which was absolutely insane. The bowl it's served in is absurdly giant, but it contains flavors to match. Next the pork wrapped garlic stems and miso-marinated salmon came off the grill. The pork was nice and flavorful and was essentially bacon wrapped vegetables. The salmon was perfectly cooked and fatty. And everything up until this point was so good I said I have to try some more. So, we ended the day aged chicken. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Looking back on my pictures of this meal, I am reminded just how amazing everything was and the vibes of the place were immaculate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If I come back to Vancouver I am definitely coming here. read more

Extensive menu for food and drinks. Most of the dishes were pretty good. The mackerel and chicken karage were just okay. Really enjoyed the duck carpaccio, unagi omelette and bluefin negitoro. Very nice of them to provide us a small dessert for our anniversary. Place is a bit noisy but atmosphere a fun. read more

My friend and I came here for lunch. We ordered from their lunch gozen menu. We loved all the food or dishes. each item was cooked and presented uniquely. Each lunch gozen was served in a big wood tray. See all food photos attached. Customer service was excellent. Our server greeted us, took care of each of our needs, and was very friendly and polite. This was exactly what I experienced in Japan. Great customer service. The ambience was great. The interior decor was very unique especially one of the walls was full of Japanese items (e.g. Japanese wine, sake, dolls, toys, etc). I would love to go back and try other dishes. Only one tricky thing is the street parking. There is street parking in front of the restaurant but it gets full easily so you might have to drive around and park in the residential area or further away and then walk to the restaurant. read more
The food was okay overall, though I thought their udon dish was good--the texture was just right. The staff in the back were polite, but the female server did not greet me and only acknowledged my husband, which I found quite off-putting. I was the one paying the bill, yet she was more attentive to him. It came across as sneaky rude & flirtatious which is unprofessional and makes the restaurant look bad. I wouldn't come back since it's far from my place & because of that one server -though it's closer to my in-laws. I hope the management can ensure all staff treat customers equally, as it seemed to be mainly this one server. It was supposed to be a surprise that his birthday cake was coming out but she whispered it to his ears - I specifically called & informed both male & female staff there that it's a surprise and to have the cake prepared. They understood but that same female server whispered to my husband. She was an interesting character. RUDE however, I didn't let that ruin my day and now i'm leaving this review because when I think about it now - she was RUDE to me for no reason. They have sister restaurants and I much rather prefer their sister restaurants over this one! This one is more known for their udon dish!! read more
I recently visited New Fuji! Having been to their other establishments (Raisu & Suika) previously, I was excited to try another. One of my friends recommended I try the lunch set and despite coming in right around 4, the waiter said I could still order off that menu. I ordered the Ao set which came with a mini snow crab and mentaiko udon, two pieces of karaage (corn and chicken), a sashimi salad and 6 pieces of salmon aburi. The star of the set was most definitely the udon --- which seemed to be New Fuji's specialty as I saw others getting udon that came in a comedically large stone bowl. The light creaminess of the broth with the seafood was lovely for the cold rainy day. However, the sashimi salad was a bit salty for me and I thought the karaage was ok but nothing special. I docked a star since I preferred Raisu's bento set compared to this set but I'd definitely want to try a full sized udon instead next time. The interior was something I also was a big fan of! read more

A delightful evening at New Fuji. We scored a last minute late dinner reservation and was glad we were able to try New Fuji! The interior design is fun and nostalgic - between the 80s pop songs, the 80s pop artists photos adorning the walls of the entrance, and the fun figurines behind their bar wall. The staff here all seemed to work well together and were all delightful. Food-wise: We had dined at two other restaurants from the same restaurant group on this trip to Vancouver, and New Fuji's specialty appeared to be soup udon and yaki udon, as well as their house-made cola and associated cola cocktails. We had the snow crab yaki udon, which was great comfort food. The two cola craft cocktails were also good. The standouta for me tonight were 1) the waygu pressed sushi; the beef is served raw, full of yummy flavors, and the 2) truffle corn appetizer. All in all, a delightful evening! read more
Popped into New Fuji after lunch in the area today and they were able to accommodate us at their bar. Overall for a short visit it was quite a yummy experience and a great vibe. It was lively for a Sunday afternoon and I love the retro decor at this place. Service was attentive by the staff, bartender and everything came at the right temperature. There are 5 desserts to choose from although ALL are strawberry-related at the time of this review. Strawberry Molten Chocolate Cake: Hot cake, gooey centre was great. Definitely for the chocolate lovers. Ichigo Cake Daifuku: The pink Mochi was cute and the bean paste was not overwhelming. This is for the folks who want dessert but not too sweet. Tiramisu Parfait Alle Fragole: The best dessert of the 3 we tried - super light and refreshing, aesthetically the most impressive and the whisky gives it an extra depth of flavour. I'd come back and get my own next time cause it was so delicious! For drinks - I loved how the majority of the cocktail menu had a cheaper virgin version available. Their Okinawan Craft Cola is an interesting take on Lemon Coke. I'd highly recommend trying it! Staff were super friendly and this place had a good vibe with yummy desserts. That wood/aqua decor is also such a cool aesthetic. They have these super cool record dividers to divvy up large tables too. A heads up: The only thing of note is the delicious looking plastic food models outside do not actually reflect offerings available inside. For example: Omurice and Kakigori is not part of their menu! read more

Food was good, service was well kept, great ambiance for an Izakaya. Didn't have to wait long for the food to our table. Do make a reservation. This place does get booked up fast. read more
