I used to go to Fuji a lot but it's always packed and the service is not as good as here. Here is a bit far from the center. Though it's located near the new commercial center. The food is great based on the price comparing to the quality. They offer buffet and lunch menu. It's not the best Japanese place in town, but it's good if you want to eat lots of salmon sashimi and other sushis. They're not bad at all. Also, it's good for groups and family, because everyone can just order whatever they like. They've got quite a big variety of food.

Zen is quite a sad excuse for a restaurant. While the quality of the food is acceptable, the…read moreprices are way too high and the service is nothing short of abysmal :-( Our waiter brought all of our food as rapidly as possible, paying zero attention to either the order we had requested or whether we had finished the previously delivered course. To add insult to injury, in his haste the knocked over the bottle of wine we ordered, spilling most of it on the floor. He neither apologized nor offered to bring us another bottle; he simply scurried away... There are far too many better restaurants in Valencia for me to even consider returning to this place. I suggest that anyone reading this avoid Zen at all costs.

I would actually give 2.5 stars for this restaurant. The reasons are that the food was okay, the…read moreservice was very slow and it was too pricy for the quality of food they served. Even so, I'd give 3.5 stars for the Pecking duck and the interior. Zen is a Western style Chinese/Japanese restaurant. The place is situated near Nuevo Centro surrounding by hotels and business offices. So many customers are business and international people. It is a bit far from the city center of Valencia, but it's not so difficult to access by either metro or bus. The interior of this place is very well done. It looks like an upscale restaurant. The waiters and waitresses seem very formal. There is a waiting space for customers that looks really nice. There are pictures of famous people who ate at this place. The atmosphere is nice and bright. The food we (2 people) ordered were 2 dishes of Dim Sum and Pecking duck. One was still frozen. So we asked them to change it to a proper hot one. We were a bit shocked because it seemed like they serve us frozen food. We didn't expect that this kind of restaurant and with this high price would be from frozen food. The other dish was not bad though. We did like it. The Pecking duck we ordered were for two people. At this place you have to order at least for two people for the Pecking duck. It came also with clear duck soup (without meat) and we could choose what to do with the duck meat: either stir fry with vegetables or with orange. For this dish we waited for a long time probably around half and hour. There was only one person who sliced the duck and he did it for each table one by one right at the dining table. It looked interesting to see how he did it. But I'd actually prefer to have it sliced from the kitchen if I had to wait for that long. The duck skin was really good and crispy. The sauce was okay but I didn't like the rice cake that came in the set. It's too dry. For the duck meat dish, we chose the one with vegetables. This one was yummy. The service was friendly but very slow. The price was too expensive for this kind of quality of food.

And, the food isn't awful, actually it's satisfactory for all you can eat style sushi. So, why on earth would this place garner 2 Stars? Easy, as a solo traveler I have found my money is the same color as everyone else's. So when service is denied, or altered, my response is a heartfelt sigh! Here at Fuji, I really should have moved on when I came I and sat down. The staff got in a curfluffle that a solo eater sat in a table for two. On of the staff members directed me upstairs for solo eaters. There is was all alone, eating by myself. Shown a ringer to get staffs attention. Talk about feeling like a pariah. How can a restaurant effect my self esteem......sadly it just did. And, even worse the food is not bad, a little heavy on the rice, but places like this don't want you to eat to much. This won't happen again!!!!

HOURS: The evening hours are posted as opening at 7:30pm, but as someone else commented, they are…read morenot open until 8:30pm (or whenever they're ready to let customers in. If you're wondering what that means, we showed up just after 8pm, and were told they wouldn't be ready until after they--the employees--were finished eating). CUSTOMER SERVICE: Because my party and I were the first to arrive after opening, we received prompt service. They got us drinks, gave us warm, wet towels to clean up, and soon came over to take our order. However, as more people arrived (and it was quite busy for a Thursday) we were somewhat forgotten. FOOD: The food is delicious! I've eaten at a lot of Japanese restaurants, and enjoyed the food very much. The sashimi (raw fish) was the best of all we tried. The miso soup was hot (temperature), but salty. The rice in the sushi was a little too hard. A lot of the dishes were prepared in the same soy sauce-, garlic-type of sauce, but delicious nonetheless.

Having just been in Japan a month ago, I was excited to try it. I came here later in the evening cramps around 10 p.m. you'd only had to wait a few minutes to get a table outside.

Moving on, I tried tuna sushi roll as a salmon roll. The fish just did not seem all that great. Certainly edible, but just a average quality. I was a little disappointed.
