🍱 Restaurant of the Week

Fuji Steakhouse – 5435 Highway 153, Hixson, TN 37343

We try to go out to eat at least once a week — it used to be more often, but this inflation is really something! When we’re not sure where to go, Fuji in Hixson has been the go-to lately. Most of the week, they’ve got ½ off sushi, which makes it hard to beat. The hibachi-style chicken and rice is some of the best in the area. Oh — and they’ve got Samuel Adams Cold Snap on draft, which is a win in my book!

Have you been to FUJI?
