We love both Mount Pleasant locations of Bon Bahn Mi. It's a great spot for a group if you have a variety of preferences or dietary restrictions as they can accommodate soy free, gluten free, vegan, and low-carb. I'm vegan and love the red curry tofu - I often get the bowl with peanut sauce and it's such clean comfort food. The local brews on tap are an awesome bonus, a variety of hot sauces is fun to choose from, and even though it's order-then-sit service, they always check on us several times during the meal. Both patios are pup friendly. The takeout holds up nicely too!
This spot serves a solid pork ramen with a delicious broth, but the crispy pork and overcooked eggs could use some improvement.

My ramen is empty. Which is how good ramen should be seen, finished. The pork ramen at Fuji is almost a great bowl of ramen. Salty white broth with a sweet finish and hit of crab offering an homage to the local faire. The pork and egg are where it loses sight of the perfect note. The pork unfortunately was fried crispy to the point where it had no flavor. Thankfully the broth rescues it and helps overcome the pork shortcoming. The eggs were overcooked but being "soy eggs" they have that lovely Carmel color and flavor to them but lack the creamy inside and kills the joy of a great soy egg. If not for the broth saving the whole dish this would be a different message.
On a winning note loyal follower know that I am always in search of restaurants that cater to my wife and her intolerance of gluten. So finding a Japanese restaurant that offer gluten friendly fare is the best thing since Soy Eggs in ramen. Cause it means I can eat here more often. She ordered and really enjoyed the hibachi soy free (hint it's where they hide the gluten) and for that alone we will come back and attempt the ramen again.
Fuji make a note of it on your website or in your menu. Yes dear patrons of gluten free living we support you. We would have been voting Fuji like we lived in Chicago early and often. So wear you options like a proud mama koala bear and let us all know. Please I need more Ramen in my diet. And fix the eggs and pork.
