Maki Sushi is a great local eatery, genuine good food, well priced and always fresh. The owners work hard and are lovely. They always remember my order and that I don’t like egg on my sushi sashimi plate… that’s service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This location has gone through quite a few hands as a Japanese restaurant over the years and they were all were pretty average but I noticed the new owners (been there a year now) have been getting busier and busier so I decided to try it and it didn't disappoint. I got the beef Bento, everything was super fresh, even the katsu sushi roll chicken was warm and the servings are a good size, i didn't need to order any additional sides to be full. Will be back for sure.

The new owners have done a great job. Teriyaki was super tasty and good quality. Tempura was crispy and with delicious dipping sauce. Super friendly staff and they threw in some complimentary edamame.

I eat here a lot. The best tempura I have ever had (40 years of eating Japanese food). Wonderful Bento box. Fabulous pork gyoza. Great sushi. Fresh. Good prices. Lovely owners and staff.
