Fuji at Ink Block

I don’t normally write reviews for restaurants but I just had to this time! Today was my second time here and it was for a birthday celebration. We got a sushi boat to share and everything came out very fast. The sushi tasted amazing and extremely fresh as always. At the end of dinner, the staff offered me dessert on the house and even put a cute candle on top. Overall service and quality of food were top notch. Will definitely recommend this place to others and be back again soon!

I had a great visit, but in general the prices are a bit high. The staff was extremely friendly (another shoutout to Tina), and the restaurant is well decorated. If you're willing to pay for the experience it's worth it, but the food itself wasn't as unique as I'd excepted. The food was very delicious, as we got a few items and they tasted good, it just seemed overpriced. The wagyu in the clay pot was great quality, but the dish lacks a variety of ingredients for the price - unlike the unagi clay pot which came with some toppings as well. Overall, it's somewhere I'd recommend trying out if you're alright with the price, but I personally don't feel the need to return to.

This is a great place to try true japanese cuisine. Everything is prepared with care. We had the gyoza (good), the sashimis (excellent) and bento boxes (great choice to try a bit of everything). The place is beautiful with a real luxury vibe. Prices are variable, but globally in the range of a japanese restaurant of this quality.

A thoroughly enjoyable Fuji Don. Very good service- prompt and well educated on sushi, sashimi, and Japanese cuisine. I will return. These are average prices for a downtown, established sushi restaurant.

Just came back from Fuji Ink Block after leaving another place where the food was less than ideal, me and my sister made our way there and were seated immediately. From the decor to the service by Ming, it was fantastic. He was so attentive that he even made my green tea stronger upon asking. The fried calamari was superb, very light and well seasoned. On his recommendation I had some sushi I forgot the name of and it was so good. We even got to try their new dessert not yet on the menu and I can tell you the chocolate lovers will die for. Overall it was a fantastic experience. Thank you Ming, your service was amazing.

The restaurant is beautiful. Very nice specialty cocktail selection with drinks incorporating Japanese whiskey and sake. The udon noodles with Cantonese XO sauce are out of this world. Maki rolls are delicious with beautiful presentation.

Versatile sushi place. They have both options of pricy premium sushi and economical standard sushi & roll options. The fact that they have variety selection of menu is charming. Of course, I would not say charming if the quality is poor, but all menu I have tried so far was definitely great. If you would like to try high-quality sushi, there is a special section of the menu. It is bit pricy, but worth to try if you are a sushi fan. Service is good enough that you can have a good time. This place is for friends and/or for a date.

Took my mom and siblings here for her birthday because her only wish is that the kids get what they want! It’s been quite a tradition to celebrate any of our birthdays at any of the Fuji locations for the past few years. JPFuji Group never disappoints!!! Love their attention to details, immaculate food and service. Highly recommend for any party! They will accommodate to your needs and they have ample street parking and a lot in the back for 90 min. Drinks were beautifully crafted by Terrance & Hugo. Best bartenders in town is here! Dessert was also specially made by Chef Rob! There’s always a rotation of special desserts every other week!

Amazing food. Fresh and delicious! Kinda pricey but definitely worth it! Service was fast. Waiter was polite and wonderful. Drinks were also so good! Ambiance was so calming and it felt good to be in that space.

Beautiful restaurant with a relaxing, busy atmostphere! Everything about this place is stunning, we had a wonderful time! We got sat by the big windows and it was a beautiful day for some sushi. Will start off by saying that prices here are definitely steep, but this is in a busy place in Boston, so we expected it. Their sushi cuts are delicious and full of flavor, their makis are perfectly plated and melted in our mouths. Their uni on the Shogun Maki was absolutely a showstopper- it was amazing!! Our waiter explained everything, which I always love, and was very nice. Definitely a good recommendation for anyone looking to have a treat in a busy place.

I ordered takeout while staying for a work trip in Boston. I got the Vegetarian delight (tofu, lotus root, celery, carrots, mushroom, asparagus, snow peas, etc), miso soup, and white rice. The dish was really good, I got it extra spicy. It had just enough sauce to coat my rice and veggies. I could have used more tofu, I only had about 4 large pieces. I would order extra tofu next time. The miso soup was fresh and warm, the white rice was also up to par. The takeout was really well packed, still warm, and came with thoughtful utensils. Overall 4.5/5!

the guru decided to try a sushi place still hungry for fresh fish. You the yelpers said this one is good. No question everything was very fresh but when I went to order some sashimi I noticed $3 extra was on my bill. Apparently I had neglected to read the fine print that said if I order sashimi style instead of nigiri style I would be charged $3 extra. That's a first for me. I don't think I've ever seen that done in all the sushi places I have been to. The other big issue was the service. I sat at the bar because I wanted a nice drink to go with my meal. Unfortunately the bartender kept leaving the bar. I've never seen that either. The bartender was away long enough that someone else had to cover. That's a problem. despite leaving with a bitter taste in my mouth I do have to say overall it was ok. The various sushi they did offer were not very appealing. Clearly the chef is trying way too hard to impress with expensive ingredients. Just because something is expensive doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be spectacular. Now I do applaud them for knowing exactly which fish came from where but I think they are missing a golden opportunity to offer more locally caught and sustainably sourced fish. It's Boston. You're right by the waterfront. Why not offer something from there? In the end I had an ok experience overall. 4 stars.

We had an amazing dinner at Fuji at Ink Block. We dined Sunday night. We had a nice bench table at the end. Our server was brand new and organized our meal beautifully. Our nigiri's were great. We loved the tempura soft shell crab roll. It was quite a meal. They do a bumping take out service.

The portions are large and the food is quite delicious. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is also pretty nice. Would not recommend the shrimp shumai appetizer. Had the spicy dry stir fry beef - loaded with veggies and quite tasty. Also ordered the seafood udon - the udon is dry FYI. Overall a positive dining experience. Would certainly come back.

First off, I have to say the staff was so incredibly accommodating! We were coming into town for a conference and the number of attendees kept changing up until the last minute. Hugo and Austin were unbelievably gracious with the changes and utterly unflappable. When we arrived, everything was set up for us to be seated right away. The waiter Andrew was excellent as well. He was very thorough with explaining the menu to us and made sure any questions were answered. Our party all ordered drinks and everyone said they were delicious. I forget what mine was named, but it was their take on a lychee martini, it was divine! The only glitch in the night was that another diner and I ordered the same dish, and Andrew mistakenly thought we had ordered one to share, so I didn't get an entree. I just changed my order at the last minute to something I thought would be quicker to make so as not to hold up dinner for everyone. I was able to try some of the sashimi though, and it was amazing. Everyone loved the food, even though not everyone in our group loves sushi. Fuji at Ink Block had something for everyone and I can't wait to go back to Boston one day, just to get sashimi!

We came for dinner last night w/ our daughter and good friends who come here all the time (eat in and take out) and everything was amazing! We started with sake martinis and I had the Her Sin & Tonic (lovely take on the G&T w/ a touch of elderflower, grapefruit bitters and sprig of rosemary). Between the five of us, we got to try the tuna lettuce wraps (wow),several of the specialty rolls: Queen Roll, 24 Karat Roll, Prism Dream Roll, plus some regular rolls: Rainbow maki, spicy tuna maki, and the hamachi sashimi and maki - everything was delicious! We ended w/ the fried rice, which was really good, too - not greasy or overly seasoned; just perfect.

The Prism Dream Maki was fresh and flavorful! The 4 pieces of Nigiri [Tuna, Salmon, Hamachi, Shrimp] that comes with it was nothing special. They didn't taste as fresh as the roll. I thought $40 for this meal was a bit overpriced but it did come with soup and salad. I would come back and just get the prism dream. The service was quick and friendly!

We came to Fuji for a special occasion -- they offered us champagne on the house but I don't drink alcohol and they were very accommodating and made me a lychee mocktail. The food was perfect! We had the tuna wraps -- never knew pineapple would be the perfect touch to tuna. For entrees we had the salmon and beef teriyaki. The salmon teriyaki was a little perfect than other restaurants -- you pour the sauce yourself. We also ordered a sushi appetizer which was also great. Our waiter was incredible. I wish I remembered his name but he is the definition of amazing customer service. The overall vibe of the restaurant is cute & romantic -- would recommend for a date spot.

Fresh sushi in a modern restaurant! We had an incredible dinner at Fuji. Our waiter was friendly, attentive and took one of my favorite family pictures for us. We shared the Fuji Boat which was filled with sashimi, nigiri and unique rolls. The highlight for me was the Toro Toro roll-the fish just melted in my mouth. We also enjoyed the gyoza which was pan fried to perfection. Great place for sushi and it's a beautiful restaurant!

Another great night at Fuji at Ink Block! Started with a Sake Martini and glass of Prosecco. Our waiter, Ian, was fantastic! Started with two appetizers... A Rainbow Maki and fried tofu. Both were excellent! Followed up with a duck clay pot and chicken udon. Both were incredible! Wait staff were fast and attentive. Even the managers were warm and friendly! Can't wait to come back!!

Came by for dinner while in town on a business trip. Nice ambiance, looks relatively new. When we arrived around 6pm on a weekday, the restaurant was technically empty. Service was fine. Food tasted fine, but the price was extremely expensive. Their tempura is a bit different, the batter is not your traditional Japanese tempura breading. It's more like those Korean panko on the outside. It's a bit too oily for my liking. Sushi deluxe is overpriced, the fish were all just basic fish, nothing fancy. Their special truffle tuna roll was just ok, nothing to write home about. Overall, an ok dinner with extremely high bill. Not coming back for sure.

4.5 stars Large, spacious restaurant with casual ambiance. This is a great place to grab lunch with good food. I ordered the seared lunch special and enjoyed the nigiris and roll.

Really large menu and the service has been great whenever I've gone! It can get a bit expensive but not unreasonable for a sushi spot. They also have a great sake selection and unique cocktails that I would recommend you trying. I find myself wanting to come back here a few times now, and it's very conveniently located!

Do yourself a favor and order Prism Dream. Everything else was great too, but that roll was special.

An intimate and elegant place to have date night. The service is phenomenal, with attentive staff and hosts. The food was a little overpriced for the amount but not for the quality. Our sushi boat was $65, which felt a little steep for 24 pieces. Nevertheless, the food was incredibly tasty. The fish was all fresh and many levels above your typical sushi buffet quality fish. I ordered the strawberry paloma mixed drink and felt it a bit strong for my liking (but I also think Mike's hard lemonade is strong so keep that in mind ;p). Our waiter was incredibly accommodating and mixed in more Sprite to make it more palatable for me. Overall, a wonderful experience despite the high price point!

SUCH delicious, fresh sushi and the duck was soooo tender and flavorful!!! Beautiful, understated/fancy vibe and the service was very attentive!

Good service. Simple and specialty rolls available. Recommend the "rowing down the mystic" and "tay-stee" rolls. It's more expensive than it was a few years ago but inflation I guess. Have been several times and have had a good experience each time. Laid back atmosphere. Spacious and ample parking.

Great sushi spot! We got the Miss Waldorf, Sake Don, and Prism Dream (substituted tuna with salmon). Miss Waldorf had a great balance of sweet and savory from the mango. The sashimi in the sake don was fresh and perfect size. The service was quick and friendly.

We ordered the tofu appetizer and it was so good! Not a tofu enthusiast but it changed me lol. We ordered one of the clay pots with unagi, spicy tuna roll, prism dream roll, and dear hyung roll. Specifically, the prism dream changed me -- SO YUMMY!! All of it was great but when my friends and I tried the prism we all made intense eye contact like wow are we gonna have to fight for the rest?! Also the presentation of the rolls was just spectacular!

This place has a fantastic looking menu based on the variety. The decision making process was a bit of a challenge in a good way. So many reasons to come back! The restaurant is nicely laid out with modern upscale decor. I stopped in a snowy night so the crowd was likely smaller than usual. There's plenty of bar seating available for the lone traveler to take advantage of in the absence of an open table. The service was friendly, fast, and professional. I had a glass of red wine and ordered the Miss Waldorf and the Boston Maki. Pure happiness! This place is definitely on my list for future visits. The only observation I would make is that they need to solve their storage issues. They had a some crates of drinks stored off to the side of the bar which wasn't attractive. Otherwise, it's a great experience. Enjoy.

Went to Fuji at Ink Block to catch up with my friend that I hadn't seen in 10 years. We had a great time! The atmosphere was perfect, and the food was delicious. Although it was our first time, our server made sure to walk through the whole menu with us and recommended us a few items to ensure that we have a great experience. We cannot wait to come back to try other rolls!

Service is excellent here. Prices are more expensive than Kendall sq. We really enjoyed our food and had a great time. The ambiance is very elevated.

Food was good. Had miso soup, a Saki, a couple rolls and a couple pieces of nigiri. Price was decent for Boston. Service wasn't super attentive but not lacking either. Wasn't as busy as I thought it should be.

*Review for take out * I like to order Fuji on a special occasion as it is the best sushi for take out but it is pricy! My favorites are the general gao chicken - so tasty and crispy , the avocado roll and sweet potato roll. If you are looking to splurge go for the wagyu beef clay pot !

AMAZING. absolutely amazing. Everything was so good! I've been to Fuji way back when they were in their OG Quincy location before they expanded and the food was always delicious. Of course, this was no different! We went out to eat with some friends and the food was so good! We ordered the salmon wonton chips, salmon and tuna sashimi, eel sushi, spicy salmon, spicy tuna, and salmon skin rolls, along with the black truffle maki and the harrison maki. my fave was the eel sushi! it had such a wonderful taste and a bit of crunch which complemented it very well. Their salmon wonton chips(forgot to take a pic) definitely had a makeover since their OG Quincy location but still just as delicious! Only downside is the chips to salmon mixture ratio was off, we wished they had given more chips! aside from that, everything was delicious!

It was my first time in Boston and ate here twice, the sushi, the service, and the place were amazing

Had a great meal here a few weeks back with a friend. The reviews don't lie- this spot is fabulous. The ambiance is upscale but not pretentious, service was friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious and reasonably priced. My friend and I went "full boat" and we're not disappointed. Paired with a few sapporos, our bill for two (with tax/tip) was about $125/pp. A great option out for friends or with a date!

Felt forgotten by the server more than once. I was going to order a second drink but never got the chance. My order was missing spicy mayo on the side and I gave up hope on getting it, only to have it come when I had 2/12 rolls left. Food and drinks were as expected from other Fuji locations, but thinking back all I focus on is waiting, waiting and waiting. It was not crowded (Wednesday night) and there were multiple servers.

Love the Fuji group and all their restaurants but this one is so beautiful! Attentive staff, great service and the food is out of this world! Can't recommend this place enough for dinner, celebration or a great drink and time!

I came here for a date one night and this may be my new favorite restaurant in Boston. The atmosphere is great for a date. The ambiance and lighting are perfectly dim. Each bite of each dish we got was extremely flavorful. See pictures attached. The only part that I disliked was how the door kept being propped open even though it was extremely cold when I went.

My wife and I consider Fuji at Ink Block to be the best of some exceptional sushi restaurants in the Boston area. The sushi is fresh and well prepared, other appetizers and entrees are always a treat. The service team is friendly and attentive, the restaurant is always clean and well kept.

The food is always fresh and delicious. The service is great and the ambiance is great for any celebration, get together or just a nice date night.

Jam-packed on a holiday Monday, we came within a yangiba's edge of being turned away since I had no reservation. Fate smiled, however, with sushi-bar seats! I hope that using official sushi knife name lingo will keep all the sushi-snobs off my trail, but surely I'll be exposed as the sham I am. But I do know when things taste good. And the sushi gods were smiling tonight. Oh, I'd be remiss...not to mention my seasonal pumpkin draft. It was tasty. I declined the sugared rim, but extra an half-point for having that option. Now on to the arduous yet happy task of deciphering what are the various sushi types. After much internet search-browsering I was all set for step 2: trying to avoid order envy. My boss made it look easy and ordered some sashimi variety pack (not the actual name). It looked lovely and was served on a mini ice hill. Apparently it was even tastier than it sounded. By the way it was Sushi Deluxe, and I could only imagine if he got Sushi Super or Super Deluxe or Moriawase Deluxe (headed into home mortgage price territory). Meanwhile back at the menu I'm undaunted as I continue to use my internet sushi translation engine. I'm rewarded with finding the Makimono section where I camped out the remainder of the evening. Eel and salmon, accompanied by some tuna sashimi...I even got my own bowl of ice. What else could I need? If I'd been here with the fam, we'd probably see some wok/noodle/rice ordered, and that actually all looked good. All you soup and salad people would enjoy those choices. My rich uncle who doesn't exist would hunker down by The Finer Things section, pausing to throw me a Harrison Maki truffle flake bone before ordering the Black Truffle Maki. Right before I awake from this dream I'd learn he called ahead to order us all the Omakase 10-course Chef's Choice. But I awaken and realize I dozed into a nice little sushi-nirvana after tasting that excellent eel, salmon, and tuna.

Service was fantastic but I'm lowering my rating to 2 stars because of how embarrassingly tiny the dessert was. $12 for the tiniest sliver of cheesecake? I literally burst out laughing when my fiancé and I received this at the table. Fuji, you killed it until the dessert portion. You should be embarrassed to serve dessert the length of my dainty pinky. Will never return or recommend.

Amazing food, ambiance, and service. My wife and I were very impressed. Better than the many of the higher priced restaurants in the area.

Fuji was a few minutes away from our hotel so we decided to dine nearby on our first evening out. It was pretty packed but we were luckily able to snag a patio table outside. We ordered the hamachi kama, duck claypot rice and assortment of chef's choice sashimi. The collar was decent, there was nothing special about it and most likely not get it again. The duck claypot rice was delicious, and we enjoyed the hoisin sauce that came with it. The sashimi was decent as well but I felt like the fish wasn't as fresh as it could have been. Overall we had a good experience there, the waiters were friendly and the food decent enough. We may be back when we're in town for the atmosphere and maybe to try some of their other dishes.

Do NOT order takeout here - paid nearly $100 for a bowl, a noodle dish, and a spicy salmon lettuce to celebrate the end of my exams. The fish in the fuji don tasted super off and I had to spit it out (could not finish it). The noodles had a good crispy texture but way too salty. The only redeeming thing (why this review is 2 stars) was the lettuce wrap, which was absolutely delicious but were 2 for $18. I've had better takeout here before just in the past year since I live nearby but in 2023 their takeout quality has declined dramatically. Might be better to stick with their dine-in.

Ambiance: there is a wall that separates the bar from the dining area and its sort of nice actually. Bar seating has several mounted tv's perfect for watching a game. Service: I have only sat at the bar at this location and the bartenders are attentive and friendly. Drinks: Yuki Lychee -- tastes exactly like what it is, it was great sweet taste to balance out the saltiness of the food. 10% ABV Food: Potstickers *not pictured* -- tasty, definitely recommend squeezing the lemon over them! Salt & Pepper Calamari -- cooked perfectly and good flavor but unfortunately it was overwhelming salty, not sure if it's typically like that or not the best batch. (top roll) Spicy Tempura Maki Katsu Style -- taking a bite out of this with all the textures and flavor hitting at once will leave you speechless 10/10 recommend (bottom roll) Prism Dream -- was exactly that, dreamy. Perfectly seared tuna and salmon, you can also never go wrong with unagi sauce. 10/10 recommend Ink Block Fried Rich -- perfectly cooked, I loved the balanced amount of veggies and the mixed meat/seafood.

Took my mom and siblings here for her birthday because her only wish is that the kids get what they want! It's been quite a tradition to celebrate any of our birthdays at any of the Fuji locations for the past few years. JPFuji Group never disappoints!!! Love their attention to details, immaculate food and service. Highly recommend for any party! They will accommodate to your needs and they have ample street parking and a lot in the back for 90 min. Drinks were beautifully crafted by Terrance & Hugo. Best bartenders in town is here! Dessert was also specially made by Chef Rob! There's always a rotation of special desserts every other week!

The food was excellent. Was here in Boston for Spring break w my teen and preteen kids and enjoyed a wonderful meal. My daughter kept wanting to get more fried wonton appetizers as it was surprisingly better than most we've tried...so we got two orders of that. My son had the salmon nigiri, sake maki (still salmon) and miso soup. I got a few delicious things, ribeye teriyaki, salmon and hamachi nigiri, and forgot the name of the roll.... We were stuffed and the food was good. Seafood quality was good as expected. The bill came and it was high...but it's our first time in Boston so we splurged a little. Can't eat like this all the time, but worth it for celebration or special treat.

I ordered the Teriyaki Salmon Lunch Bento Box for delivery and it was one of the better / "bang for your buck" lunch bentos I've had in Boston! For ~$25, you get a sizable bento box with: - Miso soup - Small salad - 2 shumai, 2 dumplings, and 2 tempura vegetables - 3 pieces of spicy tuna or spicy salmon maki - Edamame - Your choice of entree (I chose salmon teriyaki with rice, but they also have chicken, beef, etc.) It comes in a very good portion (especially for lunch) and allows you to have a little bit of everything. I'd love to get this at the restaurant but since it's hard to get away for lunch on a week day, delivery / takeout is a close second option!

Really special place! Me and my mom went and loved it! We loved the Ted Tye drinks, the black truffle maki, and the prism dream. Lots of ambiance and some of the best sushi I've ever had!

Where to go for the best sushi lunch spot? Then go to Fuji Ink Block! I ordered espresso martini with some spicy edamame to start this lunch festivity. Then I ordered the MAKIMONO COMBO LUNCH * which includes Spicy Tuna, California Maki & Avocado Maki which comes with soup and salad. One of the best lunch spot in South End in Boston if you want some fresh sushi! There are some on street parking which is great!

Really cute sushi spot - we had the chirashj which was amazing- not a ton of rice and lots of fresh fish.. and a few rolls (which I honestly thought were OK- nothing spectacular but not bad either) The place has a good amount of foot traffic, it was busy on a weeknight with a mixed crowd (families, dates, friends etc...) so would fit most types of occasions. Service was decent- Overall, I had a great experience and would recommend it to others:)

Ordered through uber eats so I can't comment on the service nor the ambience. However I will comment on the food. The sushi was good but the general gau chicken didn't taste fresh, which was disappointing.

I like their sushi and whole ambiance of this place. I enjoyed the sushi and the rice bowl. The sushi comes with gold flakes and caviar on top and it was very good. The food also came out very quickly and the waitress knew the menu very well.

I had an amazing experience at this place! Everything, from the food to the ambiance, was fantastic. A special shoutout to Tina, who went above and beyond. She noticed a friend's upcoming birthday and generously treated her to a drink and dessert. Our food arrived promptly with all the requested sides and toppings--crucial for us vegetarian meals. The lighting and atmosphere were perfect, and our reservation ensured no wait for our table. Highly recommend this place!

I've gone to other Fuji's but it was my first time at this location. It is by far my favorite. The decor is modern and inviting. They have a beautiful outdoor patio space and a large dining area. I ordered the beef teriyaki as a starter and it was cooked very well. It wasn't drenched in sauce and the presentation was nice. My waitress was very kind and I asked her what her favorite sushi was. She recommended that I order the Miss Waldorf (amazing!). I was pleased with her recommendation it was delicious, once she said mango and salmon I was sold. I also ordered the dragon maki as well and it was also delicious. Overall, I was pleased. As for a drink I ordered a passion fruit mocktail which was awesome.
