"After hearing rave reviews about this spot as one of the best sushi places in the Hudson Valley, I decided to give it a try, despite my skepticism about fine sushi in this area, having lived here for many years. What I experienced was nothing short of disappointing. I was willing to overlook the strip mall location and lackluster ambiance – after all, sometimes great food can be found in less-than-ideal settings. When we arrived, we saw Chef Makio and a young student behind the sushi bar, looking serious and dedicated to their craft, which gave me hope for a good meal. We ordered a spread of items, including nigiri, a chirashi bowl, and several rolls. Let me emphasize that this restaurant is not cheap. We frequently enjoy sushi and are more than willing to pay top dollar for quality. We’re fortunate to have access to great sushi in NYC and know how to distinguish good from mediocre. Sadly, this place is grossly overpriced for what turned out to be subpar sushi. The chirashi bowl was among the worst I’ve ever had, featuring poor-quality sushi rice and tasteless fish. It even contained those cheap crab sticks! The nigiri was low-grade, and the $30 special roll was inferior to the $10 rolls I've had from takeout places. It’s disheartening to see such inflated prices for what amounts to bad sushi pretending to be high-end. It seems many patrons either don’t recognize the difference or simply don’t care. It’s perplexing to see such positive reviews given the experience I had. If you really want good sushi, drive an hour south to Okinami in Norwood, NJ; you'll find better quality at a lower price. I don’t know where Chef Makio sources his fish or where he trained, but I won’t be returning to find out. Improvement is needed, or at the very least, prices should reflect the true quality of the food served – which currently aligns more closely with an ordinary mall sushi joint, albeit packaged with unnecessary fanfare."

The food is fantastic and the service is outstanding. This place offers some of the best sushi in the Hudson Valley, and it’s consistently excellent.

It was fine, but a California roll here costs $10. I thought maybe it would be made with real crab for that money, but nope. Not only is everything more expensive here, it's also smaller...? Stick with Yasuda Kyoto View menu

My husband and I were feeling hungry, and he suggested we stop for sushi. I wasn't very enthusiastic about the idea at first, but I figured sometimes we have to try things we’re not keen on. Once we went inside and sat down, we ordered our food, which arrived quickly and turned out to be surprisingly delicious. The staff was friendly and efficient, which added to the overall experience. However, the atmosphere could use some improvement. First impressions matter, and I think they should enhance the ambiance a bit. That said, the food was truly excellent.

I never thought much about Momiji, but after dining at Sushi Makio, it felt like a fantastic choice by comparison. The chirashi was the worst I’ve ever encountered, with slimy fish and overcooked rice. The rolls were ridiculously expensive, squishy, tasteless, and fell apart as soon as I tried to pick them up. We sat at the sushi bar and struck up a conversation with the man next to us. When he offered to treat us to a round of toro at the end of our meal, we almost declined—not out of modesty, but because we didn’t want to endure more nearly inedible toro (we had already suffered through a disappointing serving without enjoyment). In the end, we decided to go for it and downed it alongside...
