TLDR Review: With the blend of Japanese and French influences, the place does a great job delivering memorable pastries with good service and good prices. However, it is slightly more expensive than other bakeries nearby (i.e. Piece of Cake, Cake House). Usually around 2-4 dollars per pastry. Cakes may be different (forgot prices) - -Recommendations: Curry Bun, Crunchy and Creamy Bun. - - ----------------------------- Detailed Review: This review is based off of 4 categories. Food, Service, Atmosphere, and Cleanliness. The stars are divided among these categories and weighed more heavily on FOOD. This will hopefully help people understand why the place is good at and why I rate the # of stars. Food is rated out of 4 main grades with the total . Unacceptable (0 stars) , Not Good (.5) , Fair (1) , Great (2 stars-Max given)) The other categories are graded by 3 levels. Max 1 star for each category. Unacceptable (0 stars) , Fair/Good (.5), Great (1 stars-Max given)) FOOD (1.75 out of 2 stars) -For the style of the pastries and appearance, they are expected to be priced higher than other bakeries around the area. For example, $3 for Curry bun (popular). -The custard for some of the buns are much more softer with a different and distinct taste than the ones I tried at places like Cake House and Piece of Cake. -A lot more western pastries like croissants and such than the surrounding bakeries ATMOSPHERE (1 out of 1 stars) -For the size of the bakery (literally the corner of the block), it does well in creating a cozy atmosphere. Good if you go by yourself/date. Not so good if you bring 4 or more people while people are inside. SERVICE (.5 out of 1 star) -Polite and quick -Not as personal experience as I have had with other bakeries. (not a bad thing CLEANLINESS: (1 out of 1 star) -Very clean (when I visted) -Patrons are expected to clean after themselves (please do. dont be rude. There is not waiter wait for you to leave your seat)

I stopped into Fuji Bakery just an hour before closing, and the staff was perky and friendly as though theyd just opened. I bought the last chocolate brioche, and I was so pleased with my choice. There were cheese and chocolate croissants, too, but most of the items had been bought up. The brioche was sweet, eggy, tender, puffy, and just chewy enough. It was so good that I didnt remember that I had planned on only eating half and saving the remainder for a coffee break later. I guess Ill have to return soon. I definitely recommend it for someone who wants a high quality pastry.

I tiny bake shop loaded with evil pastries! What started out as an experiment (1st timer), ended up with a box of evil things to take home :) Its small - a small counter and a few tables, so think of it as a grab and go, instead of a sit down and relax cafe. Serves coffee as well (drip and more), its Seattle :) Having said that, parking could be a challenge (downtown) so that means paid street parking, or lot, depending on length of stay. Id say its moderately priced - perhaps on the high side of moderate. But its worth it!

I am giving this place two stars, because couple of their desserts are great! But... The salmon is too salty, the beef curry is beyond bland like the meat taste like nothing not even meat, most of their options are mostly tough bread with barely anything else to counteract all that bread, they are overpriced, and the place is difficult to get in and out of when people are inside with you.

Great spot for fresh pastries and lattes. The place is spotless and they have a good variety of baked goods to try. I walked by the place several times before I ventured in; now its my go-to when Im in the mood for a snack. If youre looking for something unique to bring to your next office meeting, youll find it here. Highly recommend it.

Fuji represents the classic patisserie one would find in Japan. Delicious pastries, what some might consider on the small side but IMO, are perfect for an afternoon snack (Lets call them "delicate"). The best Hojicha Lattes that Ive encountered in Seattle so far. Seating is limited, though, so I usually grab and go.

My favorite bakery in the whole Pacific Northwest! Everyone is friendly, have yet to encounter a grumpy face among employees or patrons! They keep everyone happy with awesome selections! Am not telling my favorite pastry for fear yall go buy it and then by the time I show up itll be sold out!

Went in to satisfy a sweet tooth (a rare occurrence for me) and ended up buying 5 pieces because I couldnt decide! Service was prompt and friendly. Bourbon vanilla custard?!!! Yes please! Apple tart? Uh huh! Malasadas....OK not like Hawaii but good enough.

I arrive just before closing so most things were sold out. Staff was incredibly friendly and what I did get was great! Need to go back earlier to try out more of their menu.

Love Fuji! The beef curry doughnut in particular is amazing, but all of their pastries are inventive and delicious.

Their custard is delicious, particularly in the "Crunchy Cream" donut - which is the best donut Ive had anywhere.

Amazing pastries there, but they also have savory pastries there too. The beef curry bun is so far my favorite.
