Blue Fuji tries to pretend to be some kind of premium Chinese takeout restaurant, with organic ingredients and healthy options. The truth, after ordering from here multiple times (my girlfriend loves the sushi), is that it's totally standard, middle of the road food that you'd get at any Chinese takeout place (yes, a PORTION of the ingredients used are organic, but it doesn't show). This doesn't mean it's bad, per se, just that it's average. I still order from here when I'm in the mood for Americanized East Asian food, but let's not pretend it's better than it is.
One tip, though: the teriyaki beef/chicken skewer appetizer portions are huge and cooked to perfection. That is the restaurants standout offering, for me (and dear lord, do NOT get the bland pad thai).

I love this place. Delicious sashimi EVERY time (can't say the same about the other sushi restaurants I've tried around Boston) and great great prices. The vegetarian maki combo is a whole box of sushi for super cheap! I've dined here in person before too and the staff is super sweet. All in all, five stars every time (and I order from them at least once a week). Only once was I ever less than happy, and it was when they forgot the soy sauce once =P

Fuji is one of the best places we've ordered food from in Cambridge! Their quality of sushi and other items is outstanding, compared to a few other sushi places in the area. They are also one of the few place who manage to deliver food on time for lunch to our corporate offices! Love them and order from them at least once a week!

I really hope I'm not jinxing myself here, but I've always had great luck with the food and service from Montien. I usually order the same few items though (pad thai, curry puffs, and usually one other wildcard app or entree) so maybe that's why. I've never been so disappointed that I would enter a negative review, although avoid the papaya salad app, WAY TOO GARLICKY!!!

I have ordered from Samurai five times and I have experienced exemplary service and food for 4/5 of those times. I must, however, temper my review 4 stars instead of 5 for the most recent experience. Although the food was yummy, the delivery person kept reassuring that it would take "ten more minutes" when I called a total of four times. What should have been a 45 minute delivery took 88 minutes. I was disappointed by this experience, however, they were apologetic when I brought this to their attention. I hope this was just a bad day in what is a great restaurant overall. I recommend highly.

3.5 stars. Pretty good. Crunchy Spicy tuna roll was good for the price although neither spicy nor crunchy. The Hot and sour soup is never quite right. Not sour. The Scallion pancakes are SUPER good. Perfect balance of chewy inside and crunchy outside. Their House Fried rice is also quite tasty.

2 stars for food + 5 stars for record speed delivery = 3.5/4 stars overall.
FOOD -
General Gau's chicken was 65% batter/breading, 35% chicken. Not my favorite.
DELIVERY -
The delivery person was at my door exactly TEN minutes after I placed my order. Wow! I didn't actually get a confirmation email from the restaurant until well after I received my order, so keep that in mind if you find your order hasn't been confirmed right away.
