Came here for dinner with my mom to celebrate the 15th anniversary of my dad’s passing. The fish was fresh, the miso soup was delicious, and the staff were so hospitable! We loved that it was quaint inside and easy to walk to from our Inn. Definitely recommend Maki Yaki!

At first I did not expect much from this location, but it was a hidden gem. The high quality of the fish was superb and surprised me. The owner/chef was a professional omakase chef and it really shows in the dishes’ taste and appearance. I am coming again!

Some of the best sushi I’ve had and the jalapeño bombs were also delicious! They were also incredibly nice. They even gave me some miso soup on the house! I’m surprised they didn’t have a line out the door. 100% recommend

Prices are ridiculously high for the lack of quality. $15 for a Philly and $10+ for a hand roll? NOPE

“My daughter loves sushi, so we were looking for some good vegetarian options—and this place turned out to be one of the best! The service was excellent, and the chef was very helpful and accommodating. Thank you! Highly recommend.”

we’re is the fish lol ?

Unfortunately I don’t think this is them having a bad night. This is the 3rd time this has happened where there is minimal/ very little fish. I order here a lot. This is the 3rd time this has happened. I will be taking a break from this restaurant. I hope they can get better with serving sizes. It was a good spot.

Same amount of fish on the other side of the sushi as well

I have ordered sushi from here many times and it’s always the best. It can be hard to find sushi places that are consistent in quality and taste but Maki Yaki is always consistent in both! The staff is also very kind. I absolutely love this place and their food!

Excellent, thoughtful staff who heard my daughter and I talking about the miso soup and brought it out just the way she wanted it (only miso and tofu) even without us asking. Food was excellent. Bento servings very generous. Ran a forgotten item out to the car for us too.
