LETS GET INTO IT! Fuji is the coziest spot to come grab a bite to eat. Amazing sushi options and drink menu is great as well . I do not drink but will review the food ;) I ordered the lobster Rangoon and tempura maki (4) . The lobster Rangoon was sooo yummy . The creamy texture and crispiness of the Rangoon blended so well together. Highly recommend. For those who are not aware 4 is the amount of sushi you will be getting so pay attention to the menu as some makis come with (6) . It was lunch time for me so I chose the 4 and it was so delicious!! The pieces are the nice and big in size. I highly recommend this restaurant. If you are in assembly row please stop by . Parking is all over so no need to worry about that as there are spots along the building and across the street from legal . If you do choose to go across the street from legal it's like a 3 min walk so ladies if you are wearing heels beware ( short distance but the cold and wind was getting to me ahaha ) Enjoy !!! read more

Absolutely incredible food and experience! Sushi and sashimi were both very fresh and well prepared. The tempura was perfectly cooked and lightly crispy. Everything was so good, my family came back the next day for another lunch. They even accommodated an incredibly tight schedule so we could make our train. If you like sushi, you'll love Fuji. read more

I ordered the Boat I, which was a pretty good value for $55. It included an array of sushi and sashimi. The quality of the food was just ok, some pieces were good and other were either too soft or didn't taste overly fresh. The inconsistency was concerning. Not sure I'll visit again, but it was a decent experience given I had a taste for sushi. read more

Love this place because of my favorite server Brian! Food is decent and prepared well but he really makes dining at Fuji assembly an experience to remember. Would highly recommend asking for him when booking a table. read more

Dined in tonight and was immediately blown away by the amount of items on the menu- everything sounded so good, it was hard to choose. Michael was very patient, helpful, and entertaining- and we got everything he suggested- and it was amazing! Definitely get the Secret to Success and the Siren's Kiss maki. 14/10! Only complaint I have is that I didn't come hungrier. read more

Fuji is a modern, clean restaurant with a somewhat austere dining room due to the large open space and "industrial" look. This isn't a place to go for an intimate date or confidential conversation. We came for lunch and had two of the sushi specials. The miso soup and the salad were very average and the maki and nigiri was above average. For the price, I expected a really top-notch dining experience; this wasn't. The food was much better than grocery store sushi and considerably below that of Iron-Chef Morimoto. I'd say it serves a purpose for convenience and a business lunch. Otherwise I wouldn't go out of my way to come again. read more

Always a 5 star experience with the group at Fuji Assembly. Great food and customer service. Shout out to the best bartender, 5 stars to Michael and his professionalism, hospitality and "strong" mixology. read more

This spot is hands down one of the best sushi restaurants I've been to from west coast to east. First of all, sit at the bar or sushi bar if you can. The staff is so welcoming and gave us super fun insights into Japanese whisky. We even got to try a sample of the Barrel which is hands down the best! Terry the bar manager knows so much about Japanese whisky so don't be afraid to ask some questions! The seared sake toro. I've had seared toro at over 3 dozen different restaurants and this is by far the best I've ever had. The toro absolutely melted in my mouth and was the perfect balance of sweet and salty. Absolutely no greasy taste whatsoever, seriously the best I've ever had. The Frankenstein roll. I'm a huge spicy tuna girl and this roll had the best accessories to the spicy tuna. It was sweet, spicy, crunchy, salty, and amazingly textured. I think this might be the best roll they have here. If you get any roll, get this. Rowing down the mystic. This roll had a salmon finish on top and was flavored so well for a nice salmon roll. It's definitely a sweeter roll so I mixed some wasabi in my soy sauce and that brought this whole roll together (for me). If you like a sweeter roll, this is the one! If you don't, add some wasabi and you can still enjoy it! Seafood fried rice. It's great. A fantastic fried rice. Lychee martini is great (doesn't have that funky fake juice flavor to it). A solid martini. A 100% must see. Kambo approved. read more

I had the shu mai, miso soup, tofu Korean stew, the mango salmon sushi... everything was good. Normally in Houston we get an egg for our stew. Not here. The passion fruit rita was good. Good service too. We did make reservations for 10 people. Overall I recommend it read more

Tried the spicy maki combo and was really disappointed. Tuna, salmon and California roll all essentially tasted the same as they mix the fish with spicy mayo and tempura crunch filler, there was barely any salmon or tuna (see pic). I didn't eat half of the rolls. When I expressed that I was bummed about all the filler the server told me I should have ordered nigiri. I wish they had more of a description so I knew I was getting mostly tempura crunch mayo rolls. I used to come here regularly for lunch and I love the female bartender that's normally there, but this experience turned me off and I won't be returning. read more

This is my favorite restaurant. The food is consistently phenomenal and I just can't say enough good things about Jim. He is the epitome of exceptional customer service. Jim is always friendly, thoughtful, proactive, and remembers all the small details that make such a huge difference. He is an excellent listener and delivers to the max. Jim treats everyone like they're VIP and creates such a fun and enjoyable dining experience. Jim is beyond stellar and amazing. Same goes for Kevin. He has been there for a long time and I just love seeing him and chatting with him. Kevin is an incredible asset to the team. He is consistently warm and engaging with customers and checks in often to make sure everyone is happy. He and Jim even surprised our group with a delicious sorbet dessert, which is so appreciated and it was truly the perfect yummy and refreshing treat after our delicious dinner. Although I don't see him quite as often, I'd also like to give much-deserved credit to Peter V. I was lucky enough to be paired with Peter during a weekday and he is also amazing at what he does. Very welcoming, warm, and attentive. Peter was a pleasure to chat with and his people skills are A++. My family and I love coming to Fuji at Assembly, not just for the amazing food, but because of the high-quality experience these amazing team members provide time and time again. read more

Overpriced, bland food with poor service. This place has steadily gone down hill since opening. Where once you had exciting sushi fusion, now you have doughy, under seasoned big cut greasy spoon parody of American Chinese food with dry, bland sushi. The drinks are still decent (if overpriced) and the decor is fine. read more

I've eaten here once, picked up a couple times, and ordered it delivered more times than I'd like to admit. The service is friendly for dine-in and takeout, and I've never had issues w delivery or incorrect items/ingredients w/ delivery. I've had the Frankenstein, Ming's Mango, Katsu spicy tempura, and spicy tuna maki rolls. All super fresh and tasty. To me, it is pricey but worth it especially when I get a 50% discount on Uber eats. I always know I will enjoy it. The miso soup is -fine- I'm newish to the area and this is my favorite sushi place so far. read more

Food was Not bad but definitely over priced and small portions in general. We ordered quite a few dishes including cooked foods, sushi and sashimi. Service was fast and adequate. Ambiance good and clean environments. read more

Boston has a lot of sushi places, so it's hard to find that perfect combination of quality, value, variety, and reliability. Fuji at Assembly hits quality and variety perfectly - just slightly higher on the price scale for me to commit to a full five stars. If I lived close enough to be a regular and had the same experience each time, I'd probably bump it up to a five! We split these three menu items between three people and were pretty full by the end. My favorite was the salmon with wonton chips - tasty salmon dip with perfectly crispy wonton chips. Everything else was tasty, but nothing spectacular. Our server was efficient and really nice as well. Would definitely return! read more

Fancy version of sushi zushi? Then this is the place for you. Sushi boats galore with a rather small interior limiting how many people can be fit into the restaurant. Food was good, prices were not. Overall I didn't feel value was there since a big part of prices are to cover the experience not just the materials. Service was okay but we didn't get much positive attention from start to finish it was very mediocre while the price tag made me feel like I should have enjoyed myself better and had more options available on the menu for vegetarians to enjoy. The environment is clean but has a typical cram in more booth along the walls set up that removes any chance of intimacy or privacy for the guests. The staff was polite but welcoming only in the most basic sense of memorized greetings/responses. As with most places, I felt it was staged with a lot of younger individuals who failed to see opportunities to improve service in lieu of chasing between necessary tasks. As a former young waitress I do not begrudge the sense of companionship developed when working a restaurant position, I do think the sense of responsibility for the position and oversight from management were lacking enough it's become a place to get paid while hanging out between tasks. Much like a child doing chores to earn screen time, the intention is only to do as much as is required to earn the desired reward, but very little intention to go beyond what is specifically requested. So at the end of the day I'd come back and suggest to others it's a good back up, but for the price I'd be a bit more demanding of All the staff to include the absent management presence missing from my first visit. read more

The sushi is consistently delicious! The restaurant is clean and it is ideally located at Assembly Row.

Fuji is one of my favorite Sushi restaurants. In addition to having great food they are also conveniently located in the heart of Assembly Row in Somerville. With the various dinning options available at Assembly Row, I would say Fuji is on the very top of the list. Excellent service, great & extensive menu with a very nice cocktail selection. The price of course is a bit high but that is to be expected when receiving such high quality food. read more

We have the ribeye teriyaki , medium. I still feel it is hard to chew. It will be better if it can be more tender. The salmon wunton chips is good. Personally not a fan but taste good. I have the down the mystic row. Tastes good. And the tempora is great! Recommended! read more

So sad to change my review. However the quality of the sushi here is nothing like the way it used to be when I would come here. With that being said it did not match the price / amount of food we got. Lobster ragoon. Only 4 for $10? Not worth it. The sushi rice did not taste fresh. It was somewhat hard I've had better sushi rice at Wegmans super market! I've gotten smoked maki at other places and was very excited to try it here. But the flavor was no different than if I got it not smoked. There was no extraordinary flavor for this 6 piece Maki to be worth $18 I don't mind paying if the quality is amazing. I think they need to either lower prices or up the quality or quantity. Staff was very polite as I approached the door. Snd very friendly and helpful over the phone. Other than that I will not be returning here. :( read more

I stopped in here to end my trip to Assembly Row. I've been to another Fuji location before, but this was my first time at this one. I was so incredibly impressed by every aspect of the service. The employees were attentive and extremely polite. My boyfriend and I ordered the hokkai yaki and the sushi boat and we were blown away by the freshness and quality of the food. I also ordered the Assembly mai tai - I usually am usually very averse to the taste of alcohol, but I finished my drink quickly without even realizing how fast I was drinking it! I'll definitely be back for more date nights in the future! read more

Great choice for a group with mixed preferences - both sushi and typical Chinese dishes plus some interest unique pan Asian offerings. Ambience A+. Food very good but not superb. Chinese dish too salty. Be aware the sauce that accompanies the dumplings was very good. Food came out quick - a little too quick in my opinion, felt rushed. Conveniently assembly square location read more

So, my most recent experience here ... could've been better ... by a lot. I have been here 3 other times. Those 3 experiences were pretty good ... with decent sushi. Fuji is a little hyped up, but the service had always been good, which always led to my return. Unfortunately, I have nothing good to say about the service this time. I had attended a friend's Birthday dinner this past Thursday, and our server was the most rude server I have had a in awhile. I've actually been waiting to write this review ... in hopes that my negative feelings for this experience would subside. Unfortunately, I am still very disappointed ... and quite frank, angry. I wish I got the server's name. He was very tall with glasses and was working the back portion of the restaurant. Not only did he rush us throughout the entire meal ... never staying long enough to hear our requests, he also said some pretty rude comments throughout our meal. My friend, the Birthday girl, is allergic to avocados, and wanted to order something in edition to her sushi, so she asked what was available that wasn't sushi and without avocados. The waiter rudely replied with, "WATER". I don't know if he was trying to be funny, but he was not ... nor was he helpful. Another one of my friends was enjoying some cocktails throughout the evening ... which was also met with some unpleasant comments from our waiter. For reference, and not that it should matter at all, my friend took public transportation and was behaving very mature (not tipsy at all), but whenever she ordered another drink, the waiter had to make a comment about how much she was drinking. FIRST, I don't think he would have done that to a guy, and SECOND, what the heck?! I don't know if this server had an issue with alcohol, but when I tried to order some sake bombs for the Birthday girl and my friends, he made it extremely difficult. Apparently they do not have sake bombs here, which is fine, but don't make us feel bad or like we're hassling you for ordering several draft beers and a couple carafes of sake. That's really not a lot for a party of 9-10. Also, having been a server in the past, everyone knows that you want people to order drinks because it really hikes up the bill ... which in the end should increase your tip. So, sir, who I hope to never have serve me again, PLEASE do not be so judgmental. Honestly, we all left feeling pretty crappy, which really is unfortunate since we were there for my friend's Birthday. I should give this 1 star based on our experience and all of the rude comments and glares, but I have had good service here before. I even had my own Birthday here last year and had a lovely experience. Unfortunately, I was not much into Yelp-ing then I am hoping that this is a one time mishap ... like maybe he was just having a bad day. However, I probably will steer clear from here for awhile, since there are so many other sushi places. read more

Early dinner while shopping and exploring the Assembly Row center. Fuji was not very busy on this evening and so I was immediately seated at one of the tables along the wall. Awesome that there was a power outlet there as well so I could recharge my phone! Service was friendly and helpful. The young lady has clearly been practicing her sincere smile. I had a good chirashi for dinner. Not a huge portion but the sushi was fresh and tasty. I'd have this again but definitely would supplement with something else. read more

I've ordered from Fuji a couple times and always have the same feeling after. It scratches the itch of a quick sushi fix if I'm in the assembly area, but is it the best sushi ever? No. Will I probably go back if I'm in assembly and want sushi? Sure. The prices are a little high for most things for the volume and quality. However, the lunch bento boxes are WORTH THE MONEY. The bentos are so so so much food and a really reasonable price. I usually get the teriyaki eel and am always happy with that and usually have some food leftover for dinner or lunch the next day. read more

Came here for a casual weekday date night. As it's located in Assembly Square, parking and wait times can be problematic on weekends, but we were able to park for free easily and walk in no problem. We ordered the sichuan chili chicken and singapore vermicelli (curry flavored veggie noodles), and they were both great. I will note that the chili chicken was not as spicy as I was hoping for, but that's personal preference. read more

This place has some of the best sushi around! I have done takeout and eaten in the restaurant and it's great for both-- the restaurant is chic and good for a quick dinner with friends after shopping at assembly. I love the spicy tuna roll & the salmon avocado. Best part when you order takeout-- the extra sauces like spicy Mayo or eel sauce, are free! Also the lobster rangoons are amazing! I wish I lived closer because I'd be there every night. read more

Be careful with their raw fish. I ordered the Maki lunch on Monday Jan 29th, since I was at assembly row and wanted sushi. It was my first time ordering here and it was not that great, had a weird flavor in some of the rolls. That night i got orange watery diarrhea and started vomiting really badly. I was not able to sleep at all and was really sweaty, dizzy and disoriented, had to lie down by the toilet multiple times to get my bearings. The only new thing I had eaten was the sushi. I was able to get the symptoms controlled with Zofran and Imodium. But then woke up with fecal incontinence that was almost like oil on Wednesday. I have now lost all faith in my external anal sphincter. Can't even trust flatus when you get keriorrhea. I have never had such a bad reaction to sushi before and it makes me nauseated to even think about raw seafood now. I loved sushi and poke bowls, but I don't think I can ever eat them again I have reported this to the health department, but everyone should beware. And make sure to report any food borne illnesses to your local health department so this does not happen to others. read more

I was a fan of this place! Located on Assembly Row, it's a convenient spot to get sushi after shopping etc. The staff was very friendly, and they have plenty of things available on their menu. They have a nice selection of appetizers - my friend and I shared the seaweed salad and a salmon appetizer. Both were moist and delicious - super flavorful! I ordered a vegetable maki dinner and it was good and affordable. The asparagus was a bit hard, but nothing to complain about other than that. My friend ordered chicken teriyaki and also loved it. The mochi ice cream for dessert is delicious!! Also had a very nice presentation (like all of the dishes did). I wish they had more flavors though, since they have only 3 to pick from :( but definitely try it anyway!! We chose all three to share (strawberry, chocolate, and green tea). read more

This is my go-to place for late-night snacks and drinks on the weekend. After 10pm on Friday/Saturday, they have a late-night menu where you can get select food at a cheaper price and not gonna lie I can't hate it. $4 for a spicy tuna roll, $12 for a basket of wings, $5 for gyoza, and etc. If you really don't like the taste of alcohol like me, the Quick Fire XVIII and the Mangorita is probably a great fit for you, they're so easy to drink and will get you feeling great after 2! If you're feeling brave, ask for a green tea shot, you won't regret it (not responsible if you do regret it). Shout outs to my bartenders for always taking care of me: Jake, John, Kevin, Pim (rip), and Pray (rip). read more
