“ My family took me here for a sushi feast on my birthday, their treat. We went early and it was not crowded at all. They had been there before and said it was VERY GOOD. I think that they are correct. I would actually give Makimoto a 4.3 if I could. Ambiance was QUIET & SERENE. Service was attentive and prompt. I will let the pictures do the talking. Everything was as good as it looks! I would eat here again. ”
“ Delicious!!! So delicious that I've come to write this review while still sitting in the booth, directly after I've eaten my sushi. I got the Sunday Morning roll and the Teriyaki Salmon roll. First time here, but we'll be back! ”
“ I had the veggie spring rolls, ginger salad and veggie sushi and sweet potato sushi. I was the only one in the restaurant but it was early. The service was fast and attentive. I had the mango mochi ice cream for dessert. My only con with this restaurant is that they do not serve any alcohol. ”
“ Friendly staff, great service, delicious sushi. We enjoy coming here when we are on this side of town. ”
“ This is the best sushi place in the area. It's never busy which is a mystery to me. It's fairly priced, excellent quality, and ridiculously fast. Cannot beat this place for sushi. They have some original rolls that are super tasty. This is our go to sushi spot in the area. ”
“ I had a taste for sushi while at Great Lakes Crossing mall. After a google search I decided to give them a try. There were only a couple of people inside so I was told I could sit anywhere. Water was immediately brought over and I placed my order. I ordered the veggie spring rolls, spicy shrimp roll and east roll. They started me with miso soup and some pickled cucumbers. Both were quite tasty. The spring rolls came out surprisingly fast. The first bite was ok but the second bite I got a mouthful of cold veggies. I sent them back just as my sushi was coming out. The waiter apologized profusely and verified I didn't want them to make another order of spring rolls. The sushi was tasty but seems to be missing something. I'm not sure what, but the flavors just weren't meshing for me. As I got my bill , a lady, I assume one of the owners came over and apologized for the cold spring rolls. She stated the cook needed a break and she thought she could handle making an order of spring rolls. LOL she told me to make sure I come back and she promises not to cook anything. This place isn't near my home so I probably won't be back. ”
“ I was doing work on this side of town and needed a bite to eat, but didn't want my usual fanfare. I felt like Sushi and found that this place was not only right around the corner, but got good reviews as well. So, I stopped in! I love that the place has plenty of seating and is clean as well. (some sushi places look really super tired around here, or have barely any space to sit.) My server was prompt and helped me review the menu as I had asked about lunch specials. I decided to pass on the lunch specials, but went with two rolls and miso soup. Both were fantastic, and I really enjoyed my time here. Plus, the prices were good, so my bill wasn't to terribly bad. I liked it here better than others for a variety of reasons. Primarily they have tons of seating and the place is clean. I'd rather drive the extra mile to get here then eat in a closet with 100 other people. Go check it out. You'll thank me later! ”
“ I ordered from this place through door dash with another sushi-loving friend of mine. We tried the spicy tuna, crunchy tiger and red tiger. Although very good, I was wanting more in the way of flavor. HOWEVER, it was still tasty, fast , and affordable. ”
“ Had a delicious meal here. Service was great and staff was friendly. Highly recommend the sushi boat and crunchy jalapeño roll. Even gave us some Christmas treats. Food - Stars Service - 5 stars Atmosphere - 5 stars Cleanliness - 5 stars ”
