Fuji Hana Restaurant — Restaurant in New York

Fuji Hana, or "Fuji" is probably the number one kosher Asian restaurant in the area, and typically frequented by the Jewish community nearby.

It's almost a sure thing that the food will be consistently good. While the ambiance can sometimes feel like a high school cafeteria, the service is speedy and the food itself is what keeps everyone coming back.

The menu has something like 100 items, and everyone's got their favorite. However, a few key options stand out to me:

1. String beans - probably blanched and then pan blistered in a garlic sauce, these beans are crunchy and flavorful. Others have tried and failed to replicate this recipe over the years.
2. Salad - they've got this salad composed of iceberg, cucumber and tomato and it's super crunchy. There's a green dressing (probably most similar to 'green goddess' from Chop't) and a ginger dressing, both great.
3. Sesame chicken, lemon chicken, finger lickin chicken, chicken katsu, or really anything in the special items list.

Sushi is always fresh, and they've recently added in a crispy rice, topped with spicy tuna and avocado (although it wasn't the kind you'd expect in Manhattan).

The fried rice (with chicken, beef, or salad) is consistently fresh and crunchy, but sometimes needs salt or soy sauce. And I wish they would give some kind of spicy sauce on the side, because spice doesn't seem to be part of their menu.

I don't think they've changed much on the menu in years, and their takeout/delivery is always speedy. The staff is all Asian, for an authentic feel.

For dessert - get the Toll house pie a la mode. It's non dairy (to comply with Jewish dietary laws) but is sure to please. Oh, and tell them it's...

I've eaten here twice in the last month and the first time I had soup and a noodle dish and while it arrived hot, it was terribly bland for my palate. I thought that perhaps it was just a bad night, so about a month later I returned and ordered dumplings and tempura vegetables as starters, they came out surprisingly quickly from the kitchen and they were both soggy, the vegetables in the tempura were soggy as if they used defrosted frozen veggies instead of fresh. A chicken dish was terribly bland, no amount of soy sauce could jazz it up. Ordered two sushi rolls and they were below average quality. Both visits were weeknights when it wasn't very busy. Otherwise, the service was prompt and pleasant. Bottom line, they should be using fresh ingredients, more flavoring and maybe hire some authentic...

The worst, I try I like the Food. I Hate The Service and attitude is horrible. We ordered a Veggie Burger ( NEW SCAM) They Now Have the Microwave Veggie Burger from Pragers that they put in a microwave and send a hockey puck, After Calling to ask ? WHAT IS THIS ? saying This is OLD Burger YOU order Old Burger ,They said Thats what I ordered, No I ordered #11 It says Nothing about Old Burger and 5.00 More for a Fresh Burger. Second Ordered Butter nut Squash Soup .. Was good although they left some fold from a packet of whatever they put into the soup. I didn't even have the patience to argue with them its a No win, They want to be right. Its all good. So many other choices of places that actually care about Customers , Customer service Food Quality and staying in Business. 5...
