Maki Yaki - Laguna Hills

A HIDDEN GEM LIKE NO OTHER!! Very reasonable prices, DELICIOUS and AUTHENTIC food, FAST service. A complaint i Will address for the owner is about the business and its operation… i have worked in food industry and i frequently travel to find the best food joints.. so i say this as advice more so than complaint.. CUT THE MENU IN HALF. Focus on all the best sold items. Cost of goods is too high today to be offering 50 items on a menu. Sushi IS LITERALLY THE BEST IN TOWN. Focus on that and cater to the newer crowds available in the area. This business is so successful!

FOOD is 4 STARS: The flavoring, the textures, and his cooking skills are immaculate. But the portions are off. There were more rice than there was meat/veggies. I’m sure their sushi IS BOMB though. I predict their sushi would be just as good as any other, big and popular sushi restaurant because the flavors, smell, and the taste of everything is reaaally good. Service is 5 since it’s easy and straightforward. You get your dish served on the counter, and you pick it up to bring it to your desired table. They offer everything you need to eat on a table nearby the Ordering Counter. Atmosphere is a 3, but I only say that for people who are picky. I personally don’t care much about atmosphere; I just go out to eat, so I give it a four. It’s just not modernized, and it does look run-down, but I’m very accustomed to shops (especially Asian shops) being that way. The radio plays music and ads. Overall, this shop provides you what you can’t make at home.

10 years I’ve visited this place and I’ve never had a bad meal. It’s always damn I wish I had some more

Very kind service, decent prices, clean dining area, and the food was DELICIOUS!
