  1. It's hard to believe that fish this good can be such a bargain, but we always walk out of here really full, totally satisfied, and wondering how it only came out to $20-$25 a person (for a la carte sushi, drinks and dessert) including the tip.

Awesome!

by abfr

Food is great quality and the portions are huge!! The pricing is mid-range ($20-25 per person) but considering the portions, it's an awesome deal. We have tried different sushi restaurants and always end up coming back here. My girlfriend and I never leave hungry or dissatisfied. It's a tiny place so it can get busy but it's worth the wait. Staff is friendly. I highly recommend Maki and Sushi!

  • Pros: Great portions and quality for decent price.
  • Cons: parking can be bad

I USE TO love this place.

by evilsbxan9el

This place had the bestest sushi ever!! I use to work next door - and they would always bring me my food if I ordered and didn't have time to wait. UBBER friendly - use to be.

The bobby, owner/chef was very generous with his portions, and always comps appetizers especially for the regulars. However, ever since he hired a different chef it hasn't been the same. The sushi is mediocre at best...

The servers are not as smart or friendly as they use to be. I asked for a tempura california roll with extra eel sauce and no onions - it came with no extra sauce, and butt loads of spring ONIONS!! "but they're NOT onions" she said. NOT SO SMART!! Then when I asked for the extra sauce - she said the kitchen was closed. LAME!!! Needless to say the roll I didn't eat was her tip!

  • Pros: OWNERS ARE FRIENDLY - if the owner is the chef that night, you lucked out!!
  • Cons: Dumb servers!!

A real gem!

by yds

Don't be put off by the strip mall location or the ridiculously low prices - this place is absolutely great. Owner/sushi chef Bobby definitely knows how to take care of his customers, especially the regulars. And regulars is what you'll find - I see many of the same people eating here week after week - like me, they can't stop coming back for more. It's hard to believe that fish this good can be such a bargain, but we always walk out of here really full, totally satisfied, and wondering how it only came out to $20-$25 a person (for a la carte sushi, drinks and dessert) including the tip.

  • Pros: Super value, great fish, friendly staff
  • Cons: None. OK, parking can be annoying, and it can get busy on weekends, but only because it's so good.

Great hole in the wall!

by xravexboix

I accidentally found this place about 2 years ago and can't stop going there since! The service is (usually) above expectations and the sushi itself is definitely great! The wait-staff makes recommendations JUST IN CASE they believe you ordered something you may not like. Their is just enough seating for 36 or so people (+bar seats) which makes it quiet enough for personal conversations! Definitely a place to go if you're around the area!

  • Pros: Fresh fish, Knowledgeable staff
  • Cons: Small parking spaces, Closed Sunday
