"4.3 stars: Maki Maki is my go to spot for consistently solid sushi in New City. It’s much more affordable than other sushi spots like Kumo, yet still fresh and good. It’s definitely not the best sushi I’ve ever had, but for the price and consistency, it’s great! At this time, they’re still takeout only, but I used to like dining in as well— it’s a small space but service was always friendly. We ordered takeout recently through UberEats and the food was well packaged and pickup was easy. We got the following items: Salmon Dinner: I’m a big fan of salmon, so I liked this. You get fresh and large pieces of salmon in every form. Seaweed Salad: Always love a good seaweed salad and this one tasted fresh and flavorful. Tuna Tartar: A little too mushy in textures, but good flavors, slightly sweet, and tasty. Maki Trio: This is a great deal— 3 rolls for $18.95. We got the Spicy Yellowfin Crunch, Black Pepper Tuna Avocado, and White Tuna Avocado Rolls. All 3 were solid and fresh with a good ratio of rice and inside contents. They were wrapped a little too loosely, though. Tofu Teriyaki Dinner Box: Tofu was really well fried and had a lot of flavor and nice crispy texture. The other items were a nice addition too. Veggie Fried Rice: Pretty good and standard. The order also came with 3 miso soups and salads with ginger dressing. In the past, I’ve also ordered Hibachi noodles, ramen, and udon noodles all of which were mediocre not that good. I’d definitely stick with the sushi here, which has always been consistently good for me!"

"I hate to give this 4/2022 negative review but it's necessary please read it. This is a restaurant in serious trouble, if you read other reviews you can see the themes. First, they are horribly understaffed, and everyone was waiting at least an hour forfood. They have one chef and one service employee working a peak Saturday night shift and they simply cannot keep up with theavalanche of both diners and take out orders. The server was working so hard, I felt bad for her. But one server cannot takeorders, take takeout orders, pack takeout, serve diners, do checks, seat patrons, heat tea, etc. for 15 patrons. Not possible.The restaurant was filled with patrons circling like hungry vultures, waiting an hour plus for 6 pieces of sushi. Everyone EVERYONE was angry, anxious and waiting. Some people had to wait 30 minutes for their check. Second, their menu is out ofdate. It has a sticky note that says things may be 1 2 dollars more. One of our special rolls was advertised at $15, but billedat $19. So it's a guessing game what anything costs because the menu is irrelevant. This is utterly unacceptable. Third, thesushi is simply bad, no way around it. Likely because they are so overwhelmed it sits out on the shelf waiting to be picked uponce prepared and has a chance to get too warm. The sushi was inferior to supermarket sushi, and both my wife and I woke up thenext day with very upset stomachs. We should have gotten Shoprite sushi. The ingredients were poor. The fish was obviously old,the rolls were constructed carelessly, and it made us slightly sick. All in all, the picture we got was of a failing restaurantthat is in serious trouble, and headed for disaster fast. They can't keep up with takeout orders, they can't keep up withdiners, and the quality of their sushi is horrendous. They were working hard, but they need more help and better ingredients. Bygetting more help, they could focus on their food. I wish them the best of luck and hope they succee"
