I was working in Greenfield and was craving Chinese. This place seems to be the only option, lol!…read moreDefinitely hole in the wall vibe which i don't mind at all. After speaking with the lady there, I found out they've been at the same location for 20 years! Any food place that can last 20 years is doing something right. Now to the food! I did their 3 item combo with chow mein which was about 15 bucks after tax. I chose broccolli beef, salt and pepper chicken something (I forgot what they called it), and fried shrimp. Huge portion overall, my box weighed at least 2 pounds! Chow mein was above average with more flavor than panda express. Broccolli beef was average to above average. Fried shrimp was just as you would expect from a buffet. Not bad, not amazing. The real star to me was that salty, peppery, jalapeño chicken dish. That's the one that makes me wanna come back. This place isn't gonna blow you away, but the food is flavorful, and comes at a great value which really means a little more nowadays! Considering the cost, i'd recommend this place to satisfy your chinese food craving

Let me formally apologize as it appears I may have posted a review for Panda Express to this…read morerestaurant in error and gave them a 1-star review. I no longer see that review on my history so I am assuming that Yelp corrected that oversight as i referenced a drive thru that does not exist at this restaurant but does exist at Panda Express in Soledad. Having gotten that out of the way, now let me accurately review this location. Admittedly I have acquired take-out from this location on several occasions over the past 5 years. To be fair, the food was average and not really having anything so positive or so negative to say I never bothered to submit a review. But I will correct that now for better or worse. The location is in a shopping mall so parking options are generous. The restaurant itself is not opulent nor trashy but just simple and adequate. Seating options are okay though if they were more popular I think they would need to address a better layout for seating. Every interaction I have had with staff has always been pleasant. As I noted above the food is okay. And to be fare, if you check my Panda Express review I revised today to correct the mistake I made. They are heads and shoulders above Panda Express. Their Chow Mein tastes and looks like I would expect (unlike Panda). Their meatballs are okay and the other dishes average. I have tried most of what they offer and nothing was so off-putting that I need to provide details, while nothing so amazing that it warranted being called out. Simply stated, if you are not interested in cooking one night, they offer options that are decent; though if I were so inclined I feel I might cook those options better but they just save me the time. Not intended to sound or be critical. Just an honest opinion and hope it helps. Sorry again if my post intended for Panda Express caused any issues but I no longer can find that original review so hopefully this more accurately captures your restaurant.

I bought a slew of dim sum for my wife as a celebration. I wasn't familiar with this place, but…read moreother reviews were good, so I had hope. Since another "Lordly Eggroll" place stopped selling dim sum, I had to find another place that did. I called earlier in the week to put my order in. The lady who took my call was friendly and on her game. Order taken, no need to pay in advance, life is good. I show up at the agreed time and the girl at the counter was also friendly and attentive. I waited maybe 10 minutes for everything to be finished (it was a large order for the family). Nice family owned place. Clean. The food cane out and it was perfect! Admittedly, i couldn't wait on the shu mai. I had to sneak one on the way home. Oh wow! Are they good!! In fact, everything was absolutely delicious! The sticky rice balls in lotus leaf!

Ordered pho, shaking beef, banh xeo, and others that I could not remember. Their pho was good, big portion and full of meat. Unfortunately the sirloin was overcooked and the other parts of the meat have too much fats in them, so it was down on the score. Their shaking beef was also meh, very thin and overly sweet, probably not their strongest dish. Banh xeo was full of meat and fillings, but not particularly crispy. All in all, it was tasty but only lacking a bit here and there. Their service was pretty good though. Their restaurants are also huge, which is a plus.

I was a big fan of this place when it first opened and used to rave about their pho. Unfortunately,…read moremy visit on 5/2 was a huge letdown. From the moment I walked in, the service began with a bad start. The staff were chatting and joking behind the counter and too distracted to notice me. I had to grab a menu myself and ask in a loud tone if I could sit anywhere just to get their attention. Once seated, it took nearly 10 minutes for a server to come by. I ordered a boba drink and pho with brisket. The server returned after another 8 minutes to say they were out of both the boba flavor I wanted and the brisket. After I reordered, the replacement boba arrived extremely sweet -- basically tasted like watered-down sugar syrup with almost no tea flavor. The pho was even more disappointing.. the broth was watery and bland, there was very little beef, and the bowl was light on noodles and toppings. It felt like a shadow of what they used to serve. It's sad to see a spot that was once one of the best pho places in Salinas (in my opinion) decline this sharply. The restaurant was unusually empty, and the few other customers looked just as unimpressed. I understand rising food and restaurant operating costs, but cutting quality this much will only drive more people away. I rarely leave negative reviews and I don't consider myself to be such a picky eater, but this experience was genuinely disappointing. I'm not sure I'll be back.

We celebrated our anniversary at Fujiyama and had a wonderful experience…read more The food was excellent, and the portions were very generous. The prices were right in line with what you'd expect for a hibachi restaurant, so we felt we got great value for the money. I also appreciated that they serve drinks in large soda cups--a small touch, but one I really liked. The service was friendly, attentive, and genuinely polite from start to finish. Our hibachi chef was funny, engaging, and did a great job with both the cooking and the entertainment. He made our anniversary dinner even more enjoyable. The only thing that surprised me was how empty the restaurant was. After our experience, I honestly think they deserve more business. If you're looking for good hibachi in Salinas with generous portions, solid prices, and excellent service, I'd definitely recommend giving Fujiyama a try. We'll absolutely be back!

9.7/10 Definitely the best sushi in Salinas I've had so far!…read more I really enjoyed my experience here. I started with the sashimi dinner, which was absolutely amazing no complaints at all. The cuts were generous and incredibly fresh. The Tekka Maki rolls were rolled perfectly, with a great bite and, again, very fresh. We were also treated to dessert and chose the fried green tea ice cream. It was definitely firm, which makes sense since it was fried, but fried green tea ice cream. It was definitely firm, which makes sense since it was fried, but the contrast worked well. Sweet and savory with the crispy exterior overall, really good. Service was fast and efficient, with a very attentive server. The ambiance was clean, nice, and relaxed. It wasn't very busy, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

The rolls are delicious, the miso soup is flavorful, and the salad is always crisp with the most tasty salad dressing. I also tied the tempura and it's perfectly crispy and crunchy! Everything tastes fresh every time! The staff is friendly, attentive, and the food comes out quickly. The vibe is low key with low lit lighting and dark decor. My go to items are the mango bomb, crunch roll, teriyaki roll, veggie tempura, and veggie tempura roll. I like to mix things up and order the salmon teriyaki lunch box.

The portion sizes are huge, and the value for the price is hard to beat. I lived in Seattle for a large part of my life, where teriyaki is everywhere, and I've spent years trying to find something that comes close. This restaurant is about as close as I've found. The chicken is flavorful, the sauce is just right, and it really satisfies that Seattle-style teriyaki craving. It's also served with miso soup, that I generally don't eat. It's a bit salty for my taste. The restaurant is usually pretty busy, which is always a good sign, but it's also consistently clean and well maintained. The servers are friendly and welcoming every time I've been in. They're not overly attentive, but if you need something, it's easy enough to get their attention and they're happy to help. Between the generous portions, fair prices, good food, and friendly service, this has become one of my favorite lunch spots. I'll definitely keep coming back
