    I placed my order online and got a text less than 8 minutes later saying it was ready. Unagi & Tamago Sando w/ French Fries - Full of flavor, savory to sweet. Yuzu Fish 'N' Chip Sando w/ Tater tots - The fish is bigger than the sando and really crispy, but definitely no yuzu taste. I wish the filet were thicker. The tater tots are not oily at all and are tasty. Homemade Honey Lemonade - It is refreshing, but too much honey for my liking.

    Solid Katsu sandos! Not sure if there's even any others around to compare but you won't be let down with these. They have a small selection of Japanese sandos perfect for lunch. I think sandos are typical lunch food vibes so I wouldn't go out of my way for these. Seating inside is quite limited and gets crowded on a weekday lunch. Food time varies depending when you order, 15-40min so plan accordingly when you're limited on time.

    Sando Table serves delicious Japanese sandwiches. The bread was very soft, the chicken was generous, and the sauces were good. I would have liked a few more veggies/cabbage, but the sandwich was huge anyway. The tater tots were also crispy and a nice side. The main area for improvement is the ordering and pickup process. It took quite a while to get our food,l and the ordering kiosks are located in an awkward spot near the entrance, which creates lots of congestion. There's also no clear waiting area after ordering, so people tend to crowd around the kiosk and new customers can be confused about how to order because people are blocking the kiosk. Despite that, the food was worth trying, but the wait times need improvement.

    Sriracha chicken karaage

    Went on Sunday afternoon around 2pm, most of the OG sandos were already sold out which I expected but was still sad. Ended up getting the spicy chicken and the fish sandwich. Both were yummy. I did really like the fish sandwich, it was a great texture, flavorful, and fresh. The matcha was smooth and the perfect sweetness. The chicken sandwich was also yummy and had a sophisticated flavor profile with the sauce they give on the side (though I'm not much of a fan of ordering chicken sandos). The tater tots were good, nothing extraordinry. I also really liked the sriracha chicken. It was well battered and juicy. I want to go back to try one of the egg sandwiches. The service was pretty quick. The staff were friendly and attentative. It gets pretty packed quickly but there are a few seating options. It may be better to plan to do takeout or just be aware you may be sharing a large table with others. It was tidy and well lit. There isn't a bathroom on site but the pub next door accomodates. The price point wasn't too bad, we spent around $60 for the two meals, appetizer, and two drinks. Overall, a 8/10.

    Yuzu Fish N Chip Sando

    Went over Memorial Day weekend and arrived about 5 minutes before they opened. We were first in line but by the time they opened there was quite a bit of a line! As you enter, there are two kiosks to order from though some people opted to snag one of the few seats before ordering. We got the lychee matcha latte, strawberry matcha latte, potato croquette, classic chicken katsu sando with miso soup and the yuzu fish n chip sando with tater tots. Our favorites were the lychee matcha latte and potato croquette. The flavors of the sandos were great but I wish the chicken katsu itself was a bit thinner, it felt like it overpowered all the other ingredients and after a while all I could taste was chicken with each bite. I liked the yuzu flavor from the yuzu fish n chip sando but be warned, it gets super messy! Maybe because we were first to get order we only had to wait 15 min for our order to came out and had no issues with grabbing seats. All in all a solid eat but I probably wouldn't wait more than 30 minutes for it!

    Breakfast sando

    I am fully willing to amend this review as I believe they will smooth out their operations with a little more practice. A friend and I went to lunch on a Saturday. The place was jam packed. There was a huge line to order on the kiosks because folks hadn't decided before getting in line to order. They were out of almost every menu item. We made a selection out of the remaining items. Sandwiches should take no more than 15 minutes and we waited over an hour for our takeout to be ready. If this weren't a new spot, I wouldn't bother returning. The food was good but I really wanted to try the milk bread sandwiches but they sold out. The takeout bags did not have silverware. We couldn't dine in because of the crowd. Presumably because of how long everyone was waiting. Bummer.

    Wow wow wow!! What a gem!! Got lunch from this place and the sandos are seriously so big we couldn't finish them! I got the chicken katsu and tamago salad sando, my friend got the tofu katsu and yum yum yum!! Cannot wait to come back - arrive here hungry!! (PS - no bathroom here but there is a sink to wash hands)

    Solid Tater Tots and Fries!

    Sando Table is tucked into a pretty inconspicuous spot in Boston's Financial District, but for anyone willing to make the trek, it's absolutely worth it. My friend and I went on a Thursday afternoon, and the shop was pretty lively. Not packed, but most of the seating (a few high-top spots and one main table) was taken. Still, after ordering, we were able to snag a spot within a couple of minutes. Between the two of us, we ordered the Tamago and Chicken Katsu Sando and the Yuzu Fish N' Chips Sando. Each came with a choice of salad, tater tots, miso soup, or fries (we went with fries and tots). For around $20 per sando, the portions felt pretty generous. The Tamago and Chicken Katsu was hefty, but we both felt the egg was a bit muted compared to the rest of the sandwich. That said, the chicken katsu was crispy, and I loved the acidity and slight sweetness from the slaw. Overall, probably a 4.25/5. The Yuzu Fish N' Chips, though, was the star. A little messy to eat, but the fish was flaky with a great batter, and the yuzu + Japanese tartar sauce cut through the richness perfectly. There was even enough extra sauce to dip our fries in, which we fully took advantage of. Easy 5/5. Overall, we'd definitely come back. The only downside was the lack of a bathroom or even hand sanitizer (which maybe is just me being picky), but for a place where almost everything is handheld, it feels like a miss. (Pro tip: head to the bathroom at the Dagny Hotel down the street if you're a germaphobe like me!)

    Double tamago sando

    Great soot with Japanese sandwiches in the downtown area. The sandwiches are on the pricey side but the portions are very large (we had lots of leftovers). The cafe has some seating inside but they get busy around lunch hour, so plan on waiting a bit if you want a seat. There's no restrooms available inside but there's a small sink for washing hands. The bread to filling ratio was generous, though the bread was not as soft to the sandwiches we've had before in Japan (maybe because the bread was toasted). It would be great if they offered a non toasted option. The double tamago sando and chicken katsu & tamago sando were both delicious!

    Tamago and Chicken Katsu Sando

    Atmosphere was warm and welcoming, we came during the lunch rush so it was kind of packed at the front where you can order from the mobile kiosk. We didn't wait too long during the lunch rush and the food came out looking perfect and steaming. The Hamburg Bowl was amazing, the rich sauce pairs well with the whole dish- would definitely order this again. The Katsu Tamago Sando was great as well, the 2 fillings worked well together in between delicious, soft milk bread. I did pay $1 extra for the salad and only really got a couple pieces of lettuce, not too bad but did expect a little bit more. Overall a great experience with delicious food and warm atmosphere. Will definitely come back!

    Sando Table is a small spot focused on Japanese-style craft sandwiches, and the concept is simple but well executed. We walked into a cozy space with limited seating, the kind of place that feels more like a grab-and-go stop than somewhere to settle in for a long meal. The interior is clean and functional, with a layout designed around counter service and quick turnover, and the energy stays practical and focused throughout the visit. The attention to detail in the sandwiches is noticeable from the moment you open the box, from the soft, pillowy bread to the way each ingredient is carefully layered and composed. The sandwiches themselves were really good. We tried a few different options and found the flavors well balanced, with each component coming through without overwhelming the others. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the quality of the bread made a big difference in the overall experience, with the shokupan staying soft and tender while holding the fillings together cleanly. The menu has a nice variety of options, from classic katsu sandwiches to more creative combinations, and each sandwich feels more carefully prepared than a typical quick meal. It is definitely a step above a basic sandwich shop, with the care taken in assembly and ingredient selection coming through in every bite. The biggest drawback is the price. While the quality is there, the cost feels a little high for what you are getting, especially if you are looking for something you can eat regularly. The limited seating and popularity can also make it less convenient during busier times, with the shop feeling crowded when a few customers are waiting for their orders. Sando Table delivers a tasty and well-made Japanese sandwich experience, and the food is worth trying, though the price point makes it more of a special treat rather than an everyday stop.

    Truffle takoyaki
    Alyanna T.

    I went during their soft opening period and ordered a lychee matcha latte, Tokyo breakfast sando w tater tots, and truffle takoyaki - TASTE: 4/5 - the lychee came through in the latte, and the truffle mayo in the takoyaki as well. Breakfast sandwich hit the spot w its Japanese potato croquette and tonkatsu sauce. Only disappointment was the unsalaried side of tater tots lol. Would come back eventually to try more of the menu! TEXTURE: 5/5 - perfectly fried & crispy croquette, grilled buns, and a soft Japanese-style egg patty. Chef's kiss! PRICE: 4/5 - was expecting higher price points honestly. Subtotal came to $32 SERVING SIZE: 4/5 - filled me up for a late lunch SERVICE: 4/5 - I walked in at 2:30pm on a Saturday and the space was packed. There was plenty of signage posted around their soft opening period and an anticipated 30-60min wait. I ordered via Toast on my phone, as the two self-service kiosks were busy, and my food was ready 35min later ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 - on the smaller side w some counter seating and one large table; didn't see a public bathroom. Appreciate a dedicated space for Japanese craft sandwiches! PARKING: 4/5 - got a metered street spot nearby on Franklin St x Batterymarch St

    Extremely fresh fish with generous portions in a casual, underground space…read more I think this is a reasonably priced establishment for the level of fish (phenomenal) and service (reasonable and attentive, but not like a fancier sit down restaurant) that you get. I am always surprised at how full I am when I leave! I'm stuffed every time. There is complementary miso soup with all of the bowls I've tried, outlined below. I really loved all of the bowls I've tried but my favorites are probably the Sake Aisuru Don and Kuromon Don. I just prefer more salmon to more tuna though, and they're all very good! Food: - Sake Aisuru Don: their classic all-salmon bowl! I loved the larger cuts of salmon, and I was pleasantly surprised that even the more pulverized salmon was flavorful! - Kuromon Don: loved the yellowtail in this! Each fish comes with two pieces (except the mackerel for which there are four), and I liked the sampler style for the salmon, tuna, yellowtail, and izumidai. - Maguro Toro Don: so much tuna! And all such high quality. The otoro was so fatty that it practically melted in my mouth without chewing. - Sake Maguro Hamachi Don: a mix of salmon, blue fin tuna, and yellowtail. I liked the yellowtail in this a lot and found that it stood out the most from the other two fish in this particular bowl!

It was adequately busy but still had seats open. The lunch menu is very affordable! If you can, I'd highly recommend going for lunch instead of dinner. Service was really quick! Received my meal in like 5-7 mins after ordering. Fish was super fresh and I really liked the different textures in the Hoseki Don. I also added in negitoro. They gave me a big clump of it! The second time I went back, I ordered take out so I could eat it at the airport for dinner. I ordered the Sake Maguro Hamachi don, added ikura and negitoro. Again, so impressed with the quality of the fish and the size of it. They didn't skimp out and really enjoyed the thickness of the sashimi despite it only being 3 pieces. It was a very satiating bowl. Cant wait to come back next time again!

I always worry that…read moretraditional flavors will be toned down to appeal to a broader audience, so I walked into Yume Ga Arukara with a little hesitation. Those concerns disappeared almost immediately. Looking around the dining room, I noticed many of the customers were of Asian descent, which gave me confidence that I was in the right place. I grabbed a seat at the counter, and it ended up being the best seat in the house. Watching the cooks prepare each bowl from scratch was fascinating. They hand-cut the udon noodles, cooked every component to order, and assembled each bowl with incredible care. It felt like dinner and a show all in one. On a rainy Boston afternoon, the Spicy Hot Niku Udon with an onsen egg was exactly what I needed. The broth was deeply flavorful, with rich dried fish and beef notes that tasted comforting without being overwhelming. The thinly sliced beef was tender and perfectly cooked, while the freshly made udon noodles were the star of the bowl. They were silky, smooth, and wonderfully chewy. The tempura flakes added a satisfying salty crunch that contrasted nicely with the soft noodles. The star of the dish, onsen egg, stole the show. The white part had an almost custard-like texture and the yolk was rich and creamy, blending effortlessly into the broth to make every bite even more luxurious. My only suggestion would be to offer sliced jalapeños as an optional side garnish. As a Korean who grew up enjoying spicy foods, I found myself wanting just a little more heat. I understand that Japanese cuisine typically isn't as fiery, but having the option to add fresh jalapeños would have taken an already excellent bowl to the next level for my personal taste.

The cocktails had no alcohol that I could detect and were all about $20. Flavors were fine but again not exciting. The wasabi margarita just seemed like a regular margarita to me, but with less tequila than a margarita usually has. I should note that when I visited they were out 50% of the fish options on the menu and 90% of the entrees were also unavailable so I wasn't able to taste as much as I would have liked.

The restaurant focuses mostly on soba or udon noodle dishes with a good selection between hot and cold options. It's not going to be the best udon or soba you've ever had. HOWEVER, I tried the cold ikura & uni cold soba and LOVED it. It's seasonal, so I tried that one out and was extremely surprised about how much I enjoyed the bowl. Not too much soup and the uni didn't completely obliterate when I stirred it up. They do use American wasabi though, and I found it superfluous to the dish and wished it was served on the side. But regardless, despite not having some extremely high quality noodles, the flavor and experience of the bowl itself was super pleasant. I ended up coming back the very next day because I wanted to try their clam soba. The clam soba only comes hot, which is a bit unfortunately because I actually think a cold clam soba with some lemon or yuzu would be phenomenol. I've been seeing recipes for it online so I've been wanting to try it, but their clam soba is a lot more standard and hot. They had a very good amount of clams in it, but I generally like their cold soba better. Still good, but didn't give me that feeling of needing to come back the very next day like I did with the ikura-uni combo. Overall, I'd still come back when I'm in downtown!

XO Seafood Udon: The restaurant specifically labeled it "wok-tossed," and it truly had a wonderful wok-hei鑊氣 (wok aroma), with an irresistible fragrance as soon as it arrived at the table. The XO sauce was extremely rich, sweet and umami, and the udon noodles were soft on the outside and bouncy on the inside; the sauce was glossy, smooth, but not greasy, allowing it to coat the noodles evenly and infuse them with flavor. The shrimp, squid, and scallops were all fresh and large, making for a very satisfying meal. The shrimp, in particular, were coated with a thin layer of starch before being pan-fried, adding layers of texture and locking in the juices. This plate removed the scallions and onions to suit my taste, and if you like spicy food, adding a little chili oil would greatly enhance the flavor. The restaurant had an elegant and refined ambiance, and the service was attentive, making it a very relaxing place.

    WOW! An awesome experience!!! I went here for my birthday…read morewith my parents and boyfriend, and this had been on my want to go list for years, and I am so glad I can finally cross it off! When I made the reservation online I put that the occasion it was for was my birthday- I notice that most restaurants don't pay attention to this on OpenTable, but Fuji definitely did! We were seated quickly and with no issue at all, despite it being pretty crowded. The vibe was intimate and classy- a great spot for date night, or for dinner with your parents. At our table was a card (in the pictures) which was such a nice touch and was a great start to the meal. Our waitress was awesome, and it seemed like there was a floor manager too that was making sure everyone was happy. It felt like the staff truly cared and wanted to make sure everyone was having a good time and experience. Our waitress checked in on us multiple times, and was very helpful with the menu. Speaking of the menu, I was very pleased to see the amount of vegetarian dishes! You don't see that often at Japanese restaurants! For our appetizers we got the lobster Rangoon and spicy edamame. Technically the tofu is an app but you would never guess that from the portion size. The edamame were outstanding! They were spicy as expected and were so tasty. We demolished the whole bowl. The Rangoons were also amazing- the chunks of lobster were divine. I myself love lobster and crab Rangoons, so a combo?! Amazing. Both the edamame and lobster Rangoons are can't misses. For our entrees/ mains we got the crispy soy noodles, miss Waldorf roll, sweet potato roll, tofu, and fried rice. The miss Waldorf roll is amazing, and I can not wait to go back and get more sushi. Truly the best sushi I have had in boston. There are other upscale sushi restaurants I have been to that charge a pretty penny but taste like grocery store sushi. Fuji is not one of those- it was truly exceptional sushi. The sweet potato roll was also delicious! I am very picky about my sweet potato rolls and had one that I have dreamt about since I had it in 2022. I have finally found a sweet potato roll that matches my standards. The crispy soy noodles were also amazing! They reminded e of one of my favorite restaurants when I was a kid and it filled me with such joy to eat something with that flavor. The serving size was pretty big too, and they were not shy on the shrimp! Note though, they were a tad oily (I added a little bit of soy sauce to balance it out). The fried rice was also very good and tasted like a good bowl of comfort fried rice. My parents ate it with the tofu and liked it! The only dish I would want some change in is the tofu- it wasn't bad but compared to the other dishes it definitely lacked the flavor punch you get in the rest of the dishes. The sauce was okay with it. After dinner our waitress brought a slice of vanilla crepe cake and ice cream! This was such a nice touch and it was SO good!!!!! It was the first time I ever had crepe cake but I loved it! I'm not sure if they have a dessert menu or not (we weren't asked if we wanted to see one) but I would love to go back and get that cake again!

    There are meals you remember because they taste good, and then there are experiences that change…read morethe way you think about food. Three 1 One Omakase was one of those experiences. It introduced me to new textures, flavors, aromas, and, most importantly, a deeper appreciation for the culture behind the food. From the moment we arrived, Chef Wei, his wife Carrie, and the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. The atmosphere felt intimate, as though we had been invited into someone's home rather than a restaurant. Every detail felt intentional, from the minimalist design and calming ambiance to the subtle aromas throughout the space. Learning that Three 1 One was originally a one-bedroom apartment made the experience even more meaningful. The evening reminded me of a trip to Phu Quoc, Vietnam, where local islanders welcomed my fiancé and eight friends into their home to share a meal prepared from that day's catch. Coincidentally, there were ten guests gathered around the counter at Three 1 One, just as there had been ten of us in Vietnam. In both places, strangers came together over exceptional food and genuine hospitality. That feeling stayed with me throughout the evening. My fiancé and I celebrated our 11th anniversary here as we began exploring Michelin-starred restaurants together. After traveling throughout North and South Vietnam, where his family is from, we returned with a renewed appreciation for food and the stories it tells. We were excited to discover such a thoughtful Michelin-starred restaurant so close to home. The 19-course omakase felt like a journey. The opening truffle sea bream with mizuna and sudachi sauce awakened the palate with bright citrus and earthy richness. The Kegani Hokkaido hairy crab with dashi jelly and tomato dashi mousse became my fiancé's favorite. Once mixed together, it was creamy, savory, delicate, and refreshing. His reaction said it all: "Wow." The tako (octopus) with house-made sweet soy sauce highlighted the natural flavor of the seafood beautifully, while the Tokobushi somen with abalone, wheat noodles, yam, okra, and cold dashi became one of my favorite courses. It was refined yet bold, layered with umami, and unexpectedly reminded me of the haenyeo women of Jeju Island, whose tradition of free-diving for seafood gave me an even greater appreciation for the ingredients. Another standout was the Amadai Uroko Yaki (crispy-scale tilefish). The contrast between the crisp scales and tender fish created a texture I'd never experienced before. Along with the abalone course, it was one of the highlights of the evening. The Aji horse mackerel with ginger, chives, sesame, and nori provided a refreshing transition before the sushi. The sushi alone deserves its own review. Every piece reflected remarkable craftsmanship and precision. Watching Chef Wei prepare each bite was part of the experience itself. The rice was beautifully seasoned, and every ingredient felt balanced. My favorite piece was the uni (sea urchin). It was incredibly smooth, rich, and almost buttery. My second favorite was the Hokkaido hotate (scallop), with its delicate smokiness, sweetness, and juicy texture that left me wanting another bite immediately. We also tried selections from the additional menu, along with a pear-toned sake that paired beautifully with the meal. More than anything, what stayed with me wasn't just the food, but the feeling of the evening. It was an experience built around craftsmanship, hospitality, culture, and sharing a meal with others. Thank you to Chef Wei, Carrie, and the entire team for making our 11th anniversary unforgettable and for giving us such a memorable first Michelin-star dining experience. We look forward to returning.

    This was my first Omakase experience, and I honestly don't know how anything will ever top it! From…read morethe moment you walk in, the atmosphere is personalized and incredibly welcoming. We went through 18 courses of the freshest, highest-quality fish. Chef Wei's precision is amazing to watch, and the progression of the meal was perfectly paced. He is truly an artist! If you have allergies, they are exceptionally accommodating. I have a crab allergy, and they didn't just skip the course, instead they prepared a thoughtful, high-end substitution so I never felt like I was missing out on the full experience. While it is a splurge, Chef Wei ensures you get your money's worth through the quality of the ingredients and the flawless service. An absolute 10/10 for a special occasion!
