Fuji Moto

I have thought of trying this place for some time but the exterior always deterred me. However, I'm glad we gave them a chance! The inside was much nicer than the strip mall it is located in.I placed a to go order and every employee I encountered inside was so kind. My husband tried a poke bowl (which not a lot of places near us have, so he was pleased), I got hibachi chicken (tasted better than it looked) and also tried some sushi. I did not love the sushi, but would be willing to try another roll once more! I didn't love the way the chicken is cut (I know that's silly), but thankfully it was good!Overall, it was a pleasant first experience!

The miso soup and the clear soup were excellent. The sushi rolls were also very good. And the soft shell crab was delicious. We will definitely be back here soon.

EDIT: 24 hours later and I had to come back and update this review. I got food poisoning from the rotten spicy mayo that they served me yesterday!!! I got sick within hours of eating takeout from this place, and it was the only thing I had eaten that day.Low quality sushi for such an expensive price. I ordered a rainbow roll with a side of spicy mayo. The sushi itself was disappointing; it was like 80% rice, 20% fish. They charged me 50 cents for the spicy mayo (which was basically inedible, it tasted like straight chemicals), and it wasn't even filled up all the way. I'm not sure how they have such good reviews. This was a very disappointing experience.

We ate here today.The soup was the best we ever had and the sushi was delicious!Our server was excellent and we will be making this a regular stop for dinner.

I really wanted to like this place a lot, because it is a 3 minute drive from my house (I timed it), but unfortunately our first experience was very disappointing. We decided to stay local and get takeout during the Coronavirus craze, so we decided to give this place a shot. I called my order in at 4:05 for a sashimi deluxe and 3 specialty sushi rolls. Tropical roll sounded interesting on the menu, stating it includes kiwi. I was hesitant for that, but curiosity won in this case. They open at 4 on Saturday, called my order in at 4:05, got told 25-30 minutes.I left the house at 4:30 and walked in at 4:33. Upon entry, the place looks clean. I saw in another review stating about Mexican restaurant decor, but this is no longer the case. It looks pretty inviting inside, aside of some rusty spots in the old drop ceiling. Seats looked comfy, but I was getting takeout. I was greeted right away by the hostess (likely the owner too). My food wasn't ready quite yet, but I paid my almost $70 and sat about 10 more minutes or so to wait. I noted the 95 sanitation rating from Feb 2020.A couple nearby were waiting on their hibachi, which I'm guessing they were having for the first time, as they could not properly pronounce "hibachi." My food came out with a smile and well wishes, and I went home. Now, for the quality of the food. The sushi rolls were fair to midland I would say, which is about what I expected. I've had grocery store and homemade sushi that was on the same level or better than this. That's about what I expected. 2 stars though because the tropical roll, while decent, did not contain the kiwi that the menu claims it should. The Godzilla roll was good but too much seaweed salad for my taste. I'm not big on seaweed salad, but my wife is a fan. The legend roll was a tasty mess that was gigantic and fell apart on me. The "sashimi deluxe" deserves its own paragraph because it was a joke. Thankfully, my daughter only likes salmon sashimi, because she got plenty of it. If I was eating this dish myself, I would've gone back to complain. I think some of the time I spent waiting was the "chef" hoping that the sashimi would defrost some. The fish must have just come out of the freezer at 4 because it was all still frozen blocks in the middle. Had to wait to defrost. No variety either, as it contained several pieces of salmon, tuna, and a few pieces of red snapper. No yellow tail, no white fish, no mackerel. No excitement. And the salmon tasted a bit fishier than I would expect, so not great at all. Probably was frozen for quite some time. I'm not one to nitpick about uniform cuts either, but these pieces were laughable for sashimi. I can't speak on the quality of their hibachi, but the sushi and sashimi was grocery store quality at premium restaurant prices. We paid nearly $70 with tax, and we did not get our money's worth. It's a shame, but I don't think I'll be back.

You walk in and it looks great! Locals had recommended it.That's where it ends. I had to walk back into the kitchen to get service. The clear soup was the best I've ever had. Ordered the spicy tuna.. no. It was tuna with sauce on top. Pure. Laziness. If the "sushi chef" is too lazy to mix the sauces -then make the roll. But no just make a tuna roll and put the sauce on top. Laziness. (I'll include pic). This is a first. I didn't finish. Just wanted to leave. Then AGAIN I had to go back into the kitchen to get ANY server so I could paid my bill. Sorry. Go to a grocery store. You'll get better service, and higher quality sushi. Except for the clear soup. That was delicious.

Not bad at all. Our first visit was tonight. We ordered the spring rolls (sauce is a bit too spicy for my taste but other than that it was good), 2 sushi rolls (the California roll and the big papa) and 2 entrees (steak and steak & chicken combo). It was me, hubby and our 10 and 3 year old. Soup was kind of bland but not horrible. Salad was small but just enough. I got the ginger dressing - great taste. Sushi was made fresh and tasted great. I love sushi :) haha. Entrees were a good size and were fresh, too. We were able to share it all and have leftovers. Friendly waitresses. Cute decor. Not too big. They are closed on Mondays. The only thing I snapped a picture of was the sushi. For all that it was $56 plus tip (of course). Not bad at all. We'll be back!

If you love japanese food you have found Lexington's Japanese gem ! The quality of food, service and experience is unmatched! The servers always treat customers like friends and family. Fuji moto consistently releases new menu items, keeping things fresh! Give them a try and you won't go anywhere for sushi and Japanese food again!

Not nearly as good as it was when Von ran the place, the quality has been going down ever since he left. I hope it recovers someday...

Outstanding!menu price quality are excellent! Chef Vinny and team have really excelled in every way. Get the Lexington sushi roll. Perfect
