Food: We ordered 2 lunch sets that's available M-F. 1. California roll: it's made with real crab meat and they gave a hearty amount of it 2. Salmon roll: made with fresh salmon and thick cuts but the downside was that the rice was very warm which made everything inside warm. Having warm raw salmon didn't sit well with me 3. Tempura and sashimi set. The sashimi was fine, not warm so that was good! There were three kinds of fish, too. The tempura was nice and good portions. The downside was the salad dressing and the dipping sauce for the tempura: it was extra salty for me that I couldn't finish my salad. I started dabbing a bit of the sauce with the tempura though I personally would like to have it more saucy but it was too salty. Overall, it was okay. Just the warmth of the raw fish and the extra salty sauces were personally concerning.

The only issue we had is the sake flight sampler my husband ordered had to be substituted and instead of the $15 glass option they substituted a $12 glass option (nothing was mentioned in advance) and the okonomiyaki they are promoting is not available (bummer we were really hoping to have that). All that is to say, first world "problems" and nothing was really a problem per se. We also had 5 pc gyoza appetizer and requested steamed instead of fried which they were happy to accommodate. Had some 5 pc shrimp tempura appetizer too. This 1/2 Japanese woman raised in America says -- eat here, it is authentic! Oishii!!!!

We were out in Hillsboro and decided to give this place a try. My husband really enjoyed the bento…read moreand said it was very tasty! I enjoyed the Chirashi bowl but wished the fish was fresh and not previously frozen. The texture is just not the same once the fish is frozen and then thawed. Our server was new, stating it was only her second day working there. She really tried hard to go above and beyond, even offering to change the music to make us more comfortable. (The music was fine) Her personality brought this from three stars to four. I guess I'm just spoiled being from Hawaii where the fish is always fresh and never frozen.

I have been dreading having to write this review, but feel it is my duty both as an avid fan of…read moreJapanese food and a third-generation Japanese person. If I were considering dining at Maru, this is what I would want to know. The staff here are so welcoming, they have really nice chopsticks, and the service is friendly. Beyond that, it is straight downhill. To call this a Japanese-food restaurant is not accurate. Besides the sushi, the food seems to be a mishmash of Chinese and American cuisine with Japanese names. We started out with an order of so-called chicken karaage. Imagine my shock when the server delivered a dish of deep-fried chicken strips with a bright orange sauce on top. This dish tasted exactly like Chinese sweet and sour chicken minus the sour. Instead of pieces of thigh meat, it appeared to be sliced chicken breast. This was clearly prepared by someone who has never seen or eaten chicken karaage. My husband ordered the bento box. I wanted to order one but all four options contained chicken teriyaki and shrimp tempura neither of which I wanted. Hubs went ahead and got one with an assortment of sushi. It also had salad (which was a small handful of mixed greens) Can you think of what was missing? Yeah, rice! He had to order and pay for rice as a side dish for a bento box!! WTH?? No self-respecting Japanese cook would serve a bento box without rice!! I sampled the chicken teri. Oh my god, so dry and tasteless. It also appeared to be sliced chicken breast which explained the dry texture. Hubs said the sushi was fine, fish fresh and rice tasted okay. Oh heavens, now onto my sad dish. I ordered the unagi bowl, clarifying with the server that rice was included. It wasn't visible from the menu picture. She enthusiastically confirmed it was, and that the bowl had a ginger dressing. Yum, I thought. That was the last time for the rest of the meal the word "Yum" came to mind. What was placed before me was this: A wide, shallow bowl with a small amount of rice in the bowl part. It was covered with mixed greens and spinach straight out of a package, not prepared in any way. The unagi was sliced thinly and laid on top. All over the lettuce and seeping unpleasantly throughout the rice was a creamy white dressing with no discernible flavor. Like a drab ranch. NOT the promised ginger dressing. Unfortunately for them, I avoid creamy dressings and mayonnaise. It was a nightmare on a plate. The unagi was okay but a bit chewy indicating either a poor quality or undercooking. I tried to eat the rice and salad part but the dressing just overpowered the whole dish. I left most of it after picking off the unagi. Finally, the rice was not cooked long enough or was not Japanese rice. I felt so sorry for our server. She noticed I hadn't eaten most of my dish and asked me how I like it. I just said I don't like creamy dressings and left it at that. She was so sweet but clearly knows nothing about Japanese cuisine. And her cooks know even less. If you want good Japanese food, stick with Syun Izakaya, their sister restaurant, Sawa's, or Mio Sushi. If you want to play Asian food roulette palate-wise, you might have fun here.

Miso soup was simple but also very tasty and comforting. Service was attentive, and I like how you order on your phone via QR code--plus, everything comes out QUICK! The two of us ordered 2 nigiri plates, 3 rolls, and a chef's special sashimi platter, and we were on our way home with happy bellies within 45 minutes! Probably would've been done in 30 minutes but we placed the order for the third roll last-minute at the end. Seating is a bit of a tight fit, but since we had a 4:30pm reservation (right at opening), we luckily didn't have anyone seated next to our table while we ate, so that was nice! It's a pricy meal, but you certainly get the quality that you pay for; it's nice for a treat once in a while! Highly recommend!
