" I had an incredible dining experience at Maki Yaki OC! The sushi was incredibly fresh and the flavors were authentic, reminiscent of my trips to Japan. The owner, Simon, personally made me feel welcome, and the small dining area had a cozy vibe that made it perfect for a date night. I can't wait to go back and try more of their amazing rolls, especially the spicy salmon hand roll. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Maki Yaki exceeded my expectations! I had the spicy tuna roll and the fried oysters as appetizers, and I was thoroughly impressed. Each bite was fresh, and the temperature was just right. The ambiance is simple yet charming, and I feel like a valued customer every time I visit. I will be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful surprise! Stopped in for a quick meal and found that the sushi here is just exquisite. Each roll was fresh and generously filled. The jalapeño hamachi was a standout appetizer. The only downside is that the place is small and could use more seating. Service was friendly, and the owner was very attentive. Will definitely return with friends for another dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible food! I visited after hearing about the quality sushi. The flavors of the rolls stood out, and the fresh ingredients were apparent. The owner engages well with guests, which made the visit even more enjoyable. It can get crowded, but it's worth the wait for the delicious eats. Highly recommend the poke as well. Will return with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the best experience at Maki Yaki! Their focus on freshness is evident in every bite. I ordered the salmon teriyaki, and it was cooked to perfection. The service was swift, and the cozy ambiance made for a delightful lunch. While there's not much space, it's worth the visit for authentic and delicious sushi. Definitely coming back again soon!

" 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*)
