Blue Fuji

First time eating here and the sushi was great. Very fresh. Very flavorful. House hot sake was also great. And sushi chef gave us a wonderful crab roll appetizer as a welcome. We will be back!

Sushi was top quality, tasted fresh and delicious! Beef teriyaki was also fantastic. If your looking for a cute local spot I’d definitely check this place out.

The food at Blue Fuji is always fresh and delicious. Customer service could stand to improve. Delivery took over an hour on regular weeknight. Other than that, they do have good Asian cuisine and the restaurant atmosphere is pleasant.

Ordered delivery from here last night and was truly impressed that it showed up 20 minutes earlier than their expected delivery time. The food was packaged well and still hot when it reached my door. I recommend the spicy roll platter so that you can try the spicy salmon, mixed fish, and tuna rolls. The Scezhuan Imperials was delicious. I ordered it as «spicy» but felt that it was actually mild-​medium spicy. Regardless, the dish tasted great and had a good amount of shrimp, chicken, and beef. This place does charge extra for rice on the side. Checkout eat24 for additional restaurant coupons!

Great sushi, horrible service. Wait time for eating in the restaurant was absurd. Their prices are a little high but their sushi (when it is ready) is pretty good. Would recommend for take out verses eating there.

Food tastes fresh, non-​greasy, and generally done just right. Dishes are in the pricy side.

A few years ago this place was five stars for me. I have about 4 – 5 Foodler orders from that time and this was my go to Chinese food restaurant. The food was clean tasting, service was good, delivery times were upheld.
However, the last three times I have went there my experience has been bad. The quality of food has dropped significantly, prices have gone up and my delivery times were atrocious and
unforgivable. I’m talking consistently taking MORE than an 1 hour and 30 minutes to get to me after being quoted half that time. I just ordered from them this past Saturday for the last time. The food took 1 hour 45 minutes to arrive, I called a couple of times to see where the driver was and was given lies each time.
Our food arrived on the cold temperature side, and to make matters worse the plastic containers they put the food in were melted, same with the Styrofoam so they put it in hot and the chemicals then leeched into our food… AWESOME! This is just careless and shows they took forever to get our order to us on top of that. I won’t even talk about the sushi which was just miserable.
I’m never going here again. Unfortunately, I work next to their Boston location which opened recently and that location has it’s own issues as well. This place needs to get with it or go away.

We have dined here twice and I must say the food and service is next to none. If you want the best seafood in Medford then look no further. The oysters are fresh and the fish is cooked to perfection. This restaurant defines fine dining. It is perfect for a romantic dinner or a night out with friends. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Medford is known for its seafood and one cannot come to Medford without dining at this fine establishment.

How does this kickass little place not have a solid five star rating across the board?! LOL I LOOOOOOVE Blue Fuji! It’s one of my favorites. Quality is top-​notch, the flavors are fantastic, the staff is courteous and the prices are reasonable. When I’m in Medford, it’s one my favorite places to visit. :)

Ordered through Foodler and was really disappointed. The food was pretty average — really heavy and fried — you can certainly find Chinese takeout that at least tastes a bit healthier. But what really annoyed me was that the order came with no rice. I called them to ask about it, and they said I had to order rice separately. However, this was definitely not obvious on Foodler, and so I asked them to please bring me some rice, I even offered to pay for it. They refused saying that it was too far to bring rice. Hmmm, you can accept orders from someplace, but can’t fix your mistakes? Irritating. They said that I could place a new order and meet the minimum plus delivery charge if I wanted them to bring rice. I really wasn’t impressed and would definitely not order from here again.

I’d have to give Blue Fuji a 3.5 but I’ll round up to 4. The food is pretty good (best quality and taste in the area thus far for Chinese). However, I’m not sure the organic meat is worth 3x what I’d pay at a regular Chinese restaurant. Takeout for two can run nearly $ 50 dollars once you add rice and everything else which is on the high end of what I want to pay when bringing food home. They are pretty good with packaging the food and the portions are relatively generous.
The front desk staff is exceptionally pleasant. Be sure to ask for chopsticks if you want them. It’s viewed more as an exception, not the rule.

They have incredibly rude customer service. I waited 2 hours for food. When it didn’t come, I contacted them and they told me to come pick it up or cancel the order. I told them that I had been waiting a while and would still like to get the food delivered as I do not own a car. After agreeing to this. I waited another hour and it NEVER came! When I called this restaurant again they ignored my calls.
I will never order from here again. I can’t believe the lack of customer service this place has. Don’t offer a delivery service if you can not follow through.

Some of the nicest wait staff we’ve encountered in Boston.
The General Gao’s chicken was fresh, delicious and wasn’t so heavy like other places with twice as much breading than chicken. My husband had two kinds of sushi which he said was amazing and ranked among the best he’s had.

Great food every time we have ordered take out! Definitely a cut above other Asian restaurants in the area in freshness and flavorful. We. Particularly love the items in the Pu Pu platter. We also LOVE their miso soup. The delivery was quite a bit longer than expected, so for that reason I had to go down to four stats. The prices are also very good considering the quality and quantity of food.

If all you care about when you get sushi are the generic westernized sushi rolls than ignore the rest of this review. They make a fine spicy tuna roll loaded with tons of tempura filler. I give this place a mediocre, 3 stars.
For those who like authentic or creative sushi and care about the quality of the ingredients then please, read on:
One of my biggest pet peves is «green-​washing», making false or exaggerated claims of environmental sustainability, particuarly when it comes to seafood. I’ll start my review with this quote from their website: «Our sushi sings with organic ingredients and sustainably wild-​caught fish.»
OK let’s start with the «sings with organic ingredients». What organic ingredients? Rice? Produce? I can tell you it sure isnt the fish because the USDA doesnt currently have any standards for «organic» seafood.
And the latter part of that statement «sustainably wild-​caught fish». I recently ordered the suhsi and sashimi platter which included 3 pieces each of salmon, tuna, and white tuna sashimi; 1 piece each of nigiri salmon, tuna, white tuna, shrimp, and an unknown «white fish» that I would be willing to bet was tilapia; and a shrimp tempura roll.
Let’s look at these ingredients:
Salmon — farm raised, debatable sustainability
Tuna — wild caught, sustainability either questionable (if local, which I am sure it was not based on the CO-​treated appearance) or bad if imported from S. America or Southeast Asia.
White Tuna — real «white tuna» is wild caught albacore, this was escolar, a fish often mislabeled as white-​tuna that is known to cause gastrointestinal issues
Shrimp — farm raised — based on everything else I wouldnt trust their source to be using best practices
Lastly that mystery white-​fish — I have seen enough fish to bet that it was farm-​raised tilapia…
Haven’t tried any of their Chinese food so I cant comment on that, but if you want sushi that is remotely authentic, unique or sustainable you will have to look elsewhere.

They have a variety of dishes at reasonable prices. I’m a fan of their lunch specials because you get a lot for a really good price.
I highly recommend the Scallop Hokkaiyaki. It comes out steaming hot. Their sushi is really good and fresh too.
Sometimes, at lunch time, they’ll dim the lights making it somewhat cozy and romantic.

I ordered delivery as they just opened a restaurant downtown. I ordered the New Wave maki roll, the Sweet Egg sushi and the Seafood Miso Soup. The sushi were both delicious; however, the soup left much to be desired. It was a regular miso soup with ONE piece of seafood: one shrimp and NO crabmeat. It was sad and ridiculous. How can you call it seafood soup with one piece of seafood? Will never order this again. Picture shows the only seafood left after the rest of the soup (miso, broth, seaweed and tofu) were gone.

Gluten free consumers beware!!! Those without allergies, consume with glee!
This is hard for me, because I have tried to be upbeat about Blue Fuji just to support a local Medford restaurant. But I have to tell you, as often as I have tried, 5 or 6 times in less than 2 years, the restaurant staff do not practice what they advertise.
I recently called for a delivery. They refused to make the drunken noodles gluten free. Not rocket science, you leave out the soy sauce. I reminded them they have done it before and on their own flyer is states, «can accommodate most items for allergies».
They said they could not.
Fine, unimpressed I asked them what the ingredients were in the pad thia, I wanted rice noodles. The young man on the phone preferred I tell him my specific allergies. (by law they can ask).
I told him what I know usually comes in pad thia, I forgot peanuts, I don’t work there, they do (by law when asked, they need to tell you). They should know what ingredients come in a dish! So I got a plate of rice noodles with peanuts delivered. Nothing more, nothing less.
I called, explaining that is the exact reason I asked for the ingredients list. They took the rice noodles back (literally came back to my house to get them) and credited me the dish.
I asked for the owner to call, to change the statement on the flyer so it is not faulty advertising. I still have not gotten a call from the owner.
It took me two weeks of deliberation as to whether or not I would write this review because I do not like being negative Nellie, grumpy Gretchen or complaining Connie but enough is enough. If a restaurant can not accommodate, I will skimp and go with what I can get.
If you are going to advertise as being «organic and accommodating» then be true and not blue. Do not fuji around with your customer care and ignore someone who would love to do business with you. Shameful, see my finger wagging. I doubt faulty advertising is legal, I know it is at the discretion of the business to accommodate and when asked to state the ingredients but I also definitely know it is bad customer service!!!
Sad, as a self-​employed person I know the importance of customer loyalty. Obviously Blue Fuji does not. By definition fuji is a fabric woven together, too bad for this restaurant they chose to be blue.

I thought the concept was good, this place markets that it serves organic sushi very prominently. I came in for some Sushi rolls and also ordered Crab Rangoons. I had the Jackie Chan roll, it was good, but a little too heavy on the cream cheese for my taste. The Crab Rangoons were not the traditional kind I have had at Chinese restaurants, they were much more crab forward and much less cheese. Probably wouldn’t order that item again.

Oh. My. Goodness. This place was such a treat… I wasn’t expecting it to be so good. I’ve recently been let down by my experience at various sushi places in the Boston area, but Blue Fuji was a pleasant surprise!
My boyfriend ordered the gluten-​free General Gau’s chicken, and it was probably the best-​tasting General Gau’s we’ve ever had. The pieces of chicken were huge, moist, tender, and perfectly white… you could just taste the quality of the organic chicken. I can’t say the same for other places that sell this dish.
The décor is tasteful and inviting. We loved the modern, wooden bookcase wall filled with wine bottles, candles, and Japanese plants. We were there for lunch, but I imagine the atmosphere is really great in the evening, too.
