" Maki Yaki has been my go-to sushi place for a while. Their fish is consistently fresh, and the rolls are delightful. I love how Simon knows his regulars. A friendly atmosphere and delicious food make it a winning combo. I will keep coming back for the quality sushi, but I hope they expand the seating in the future! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had mixed feelings about my visit. The sushi was fine, though not stellar. Atmosphere could be improved; it feels quite basic. I appreciated the friendly service, though I felt rushed. I would give Maki Yaki another shot perhaps when it is less busy to try some of their popular rolls. " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I were drawn in by the positive reviews and we were not disappointed! From the miso soup to the sushi rolls, everything was delightful and bursting with flavor. The owner was warm and welcoming, which enhanced our dining experience. Don't let the small seating deter you as the food is well worth it. A true hidden gem in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not what I expected. The reviews had me looking forward to an exceptional meal, but I found it just average. The ambiance lacked decoration, and the service was a bit impersonal. The sushi was good, just not memorable. I might consider coming back if I'm in the area, but only if the mood strikes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Maki Yaki is absolutely a local treasure! The owner is super friendly and makes an effort to greet each customer. The sushi is always fresh, and the spicy tuna roll is a personal favorite. I love the atmosphere; it feels cozy and warm. The portions were plentiful— I always leave feeling full! Glad to have found this place. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was looking forward to trying Maki Yaki based on great reviews, but my experience was a bit off. While the sushi was fresh, the rolls were not as flavorful as I had hoped. The service was quick, but the staff seemed overwhelmed. I loved the low-key vibe of the place, but I think I might try a different dish next time. That being said, I’m willing to give it another chance! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ate at Maki Yaki last week, and it did not live up to expectations. The sushi was good but lacked the wow factor I was hoping for. The service was decent, but I felt rushed to order. The ambiance was relaxed, but I wish there was more space to breathe. I will give it another shot but will try something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)
