Mount Fuji

I’m going to be honest, looking at the menu Mt Fuji displayed outside their restaurant had me *really* skeptical… I mean come on, the whole thing was filled with sweet and sour! However, my partner came here on his lunch break once and he told me that they actually had way more on offer that was actually authentic! So reluctantly I decided to give it a try when he suggested it for dinner tonight.
I’m really glad I gave Mt Fuji a second chance because their food is awesome!
~ Atmosphere:
It’s only a tiny restaurant in the middle of St David’s. As most other restaurants at St David’s, it’s open to people watching as the seating area is open to the entire shopping mall. They also have Japanese music playing and animé photos on their menu. I hope that gives you an idea of just what kind of place Mt Fuji is but it certainly gives a lot of charm!
~ Customer Service:
Really good! The waiter who served us was very friendly and even came over every now and again to check on us to make sure we were okay. I don’t normally leave tips in Britain, but I couldn’t help but give him one. Furthermore, the food came out really quickly so it definitely makes it lunch-​break friendly.
~ Food:
I ordered the Chicken Katsu Curry w/​Udon. Tbh, I didn’t realise it would be an actual soup at first, I thought it’d be like katsu curry don except udon instead of rice. The taste was good, although I wish I could’ve ordered something else since curry broth isn’t really my thing unless it’s laksa. However, the chicken was cooked perfectly and I’m a hardcore udon noodle fan so they were to die for!
My partner and I shared a Gyudon between us and it was absolutely delicious! The meat was marinated and so tender. They were quite generous with the meat as well; the dish had a perfect meat-​to-​rice ratio.

I still have to get used to the price of Japanese food in Wales, but in comparison to other Japanese establishments Mt Fuji isn’t too bad (£10−11 for a main). The food is tasty and definitely well worth it.
