About this place
Ginger-fried pork, bacon and eggs, and minced-meat cutlet: on one visit, the set meal of the day brought together three Western-style dishes. A diner’s account describes it served with rice, miso soup, pickles and salad. The pork was stir-fried with green pepper and onion, while the cutlet was small but had a satisfying taste of meat. Someone who ordered the same set on another day mentioned thick slices of ginger-fried pork, a soft-yolk bacon and egg, and fluffy fried fish. The combination seems to vary, so part of the appeal is seeing what is on offer that day.
Beyond the set meals, the menu includes familiar diner fare such as omurice, curry rice, dry curry and Napolitan spaghetti. One diner described the omurice as generously flavoured with ketchup. Whether you are after a substantial set meal or a standalone rice dish or spaghetti, there are options to suit the occasion.
Kitchen Fuji is a Japanese-style Western diner in Koenji-kita. Dine-in is available, and the restaurant is described as suitable for solo diners. One visitor enjoyed the salad and pickles from the set meal while waiting for the food with a bottle of beer. Pairing a set meal with beer may suit a relaxed meal inside. The restaurant is reported to accept cash only, so it is worth bringing some along.
