I wasn't sure what to expect, this place is new to me and my family and we booked a reservation…read moreonline due to our group size. It was a good thing we did since seating was limited and boy did it fill up for dinner quick. We went for Friday dinner, a service charge is added for party of 6 or more, they opened at 5pm so people were lined up before then, and it wasn't very cold inside but felt fine. They have dinner sets with hot foods in addition to sushi sets, I ordered the grilled chicken to share with my son and also an assorted tempura. The rest ordered 18 pieces of Negitoro Rolls, Deluxe sushi dinner, and Traditional Edomae Style Sushi Dinner. We also got water and one can of Diet Coke. They also served some pickled dishes and salad (but chicken dinner had salad so I didn't get it yet), and we really enjoyed the dressing. The small dishes were good, I think it goes even better with our meals but I ate them before the meal came. My dish had grilled chicken and salad with a bowl of rice. It wasn't what I expected but there's plenty of chicken which I shared with my son and he ate a lot! The others had really good dishes, they looked fresh and they said it was delicious. Overall, nice dinner, very elegant in a way that I think it's also a nice treat here and there for the price. Parking was plenty but can be packed for dinner time around 6, you can still park around the bank.

I've had this place bookmarked a while so it was the perfect time to try it. It was not so busy for a Tuesday night. There is plenty of seating, bar seating and the place looked super clean. I wasn't sure what the special dishes were so I ordered the Premium Blue Fin Tuna and Negitoro Bowl, Premium Chirashi Dinner and an order of halibut and salmon. Our favorites was the Blue Fin Tuna and Negitoro Bowl. The tuna paired with the rice as soooo good. I was in absolute heaven. I love tuna and negitoro and this dish did not disappoint! The Chirashi dinner was decent. It had a little of everything which was nice. The fish were not too thick which was nice and the rice was flavorful. The dinners both came with a salad and miso soup which were both pretty good starters. The halbut and salmon nigiri pieces were also really good. :) Overall, the vibes inside were nice and the service was great. Parking is easy since there is a big lot out front and this place is tucked away in a plaza. I will definitely be back :) ALSO, I thought the prices were quite decent for the quality of the food!!

They also have a great selection of beer on tap, a full bar, and a weekday happy hour that's definitely worth checking out. The location is super convenient, right off the 210 Freeway with plenty of parking. Whenever family or friends are in town, this is one of my go-to places. I highly recommend giving Mikomi Sushi a try!

We came to this sushi place for the first time and the vibe was great! Our server, Susie, was…read moreattentive and so nice, she got our orders right and was super efficient. The food came out fast (we waited less than 2 minutes), and everything arrived in a steady, well-paced flow rather than all at once. The food itself was fantastic, fresh, flavorful, and we cleaned our plates. Great prices too. But honestly, the service was the best part: they noticed we had kids with us and anticipated everything we'd need, like kid-friendly utensils, without us even having to ask. That kind of attention to detail made the whole experience so much easier. My kids loves the robot! Thank you, Susie and everyone! we'll definitely be back!

The restaurant has a modern, casual…read moreatmosphere, and the menu offers a nice mix of sushi, sashimi, and cooked dishes, so there's something for everyone. We started with the shrimp and vegetable tempura, which was light, crispy, and not greasy. The wagyu roll was one of my favorite rolls of the night with its rich truffle flavor, crunchy gobo, and tempura adding great texture. The BBQ beef short ribs were also excellent--tender, flavorful, and cooked really well. The highlight of the meal was definitely the chirashi bowl. The variety of fish was impressive, and every piece was thick-cut, incredibly fresh, and melted in my mouth. We also ordered the blue crab don, which was generously topped with sweet blue crab, tobiko, and ikura over perfectly seasoned sushi rice. Every bite was packed with flavor. One thing that's worth mentioning is their free membership program. It gives you 10% off your meal along with other perks, so it's definitely worth signing up before you pay. Overall, everything tasted fresh, the portions were generous, and the quality exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu and would recommend Maki and Sushi to anyone looking for quality sushi in Arcadia.

Are you always craving fresh Japanese food like me?…read more I brought my husband to Maki Sushi to celebrate his birthday. I just wanted him to try their Maki Omakase Sashimi Set! It's just THAT fresh. It even comes with fresh oysters And uni with scallop... absolutely incredible. But my surprise favorite was the Blue Crab Don. You don't always find blue crab on the menu, and they were so generous with it! I also loved the Wagyu Roll. It's another dish that's not easy to find at most Japanese restaurants. Definitely didn't disappoint! And I can't forget the raw sweet shrimp sushi. It was so fresh and absolutely fabulous! Ending the birthday dinner with the cutest little orange birthday gift.

When I got to the lot, it took me a few minutes to locate the restaurant because the name sign was super low-key. The restaurant is pretty small but feels cozy. My colleague already ordered before I got there so I just ate whatever they put on the table! The only one I didn't like as much was the beef? It was too salty for my taste. The sashimi platter was the best! The corn tempura was new to me and it was so good! I think my kids would love it. The grilled whole seabass was amazing. I need to find time to take my family there kind of good!

Restaurant is located in a small strip mall, with a fair amount of parking. There isn't a flashy restaurant sign in front of the building, and once you step in, it truly feels like you are in a small, homey Izikaya in Japan. The restaurant only has a few booths, a few tables and bar seating inside, so reservations are highly recommended on a busy Saturday night. My boyfriend and I got lucky that they were able to accommodate us within 10 minutes, because there was seating available at the bar. There is a physical Drink menu (sake, beer, etc.) and the food menu can be viewed by scanning a QR code with your phone. The waitress made suggestions about which dishes she personally liked & we ordered whatever she suggested, along with some of the things we thought looked good. *7/10 Toro w/ seaweed *8/10 Moriwase (chef's selection of sashimi) 2 each of 5 different sashimi. There was one cut I did not particularly care for. *7/10 chicken wings *10/10 Beef tongue-- Tender, but firm. Delicious, a must try! *10/10 Ankimo-- creamy and paired well with the ponzu and fresh seaweed *10/10 Fried Seabass-- they served the entire fish, which is rare. *10/10 Sous-vide Duck breast-- must try! *10/10 Nikomi stew--simple, but delicious! *10/10 Matcha Oolong Panna Cotta-- subtly sweet with a smooth texture. It was so good, that we ordered two! The only reason that I only gave it a four out of five stars is because the service was slow. All of our dishes, came out in time, but no drink refills were given and the server never came back to collect our check for payment. So we had to walk it up to them ourselves. For a small space, with three servers, it shouldn't be hard to attend to all the customers. The menu can be pricey, but food is delicious! Along with exceptional service, eating here is worth it.

The amount of time we waited for someone to take our order or for someone to bring us the check is unacceptable. I'm writing this still waiting for the check. It's ridiculous. The sushi chef was also not wearing gloves and wiping his nose with his hands then touching the sushi. Disgusting. I ordered the cucumber roll, which was a total scam. They brought out 6 of the tiniest rolls I've ever seen in my life and then charged it $6 ($1 a roll for the SMALLEST rolls I've ever seen). Ridiculous. I'm still hungry and pissed. We also ordered the garlic edamame which came out incredibly spicy even though there was absolutely no warning about that anywhere on the menu.

Parking is abundantly available since it's located in a shared strip center. There's a sushi bar, but I opted to dine at a table with a view of the sushi bar where there were two itamae chefs. I opted for the sashimi lunch, which is served over sushi rice, and a spicy tuna hand roll. The lunch included hot tea and miso soup. The sashimi was solid with scallop, various cuts of sashimi, and uni. The service was prompt, but the waitress hostess staff was all business and could have been friendlier although she might have been overwhelmed, since she was seating patrons, taking orders and serving customers. Overall, it was an average lunch experience, although I preferred their new Irvine location, due to the friendlier service, better variety of sashimi and atmosphere.

Our family has been to Kiyo a handful of times, and it's become my favorite sushi place…read more Fish is sizable and fresh, prices are reasonable. We love that they do weekend lunch special, and we specifically come for that. The sushi lunch combo always includes generous, thick slices of fresh fish and a good variety. This last time, we even got a huge scallop nigiri in our combos! We also ordered a roll and an order of takoyaki to share this time around, and both hit the spot. Interior is classy, clean, and comfortable. Service can be a little slow depending on how busy it is (on a Saturday during lunch, our 3 sushi combos arrived like 15 minutes after my grandma's chicken udon), but that speaks to the made-to-order quality, so I'm not too bummed. Overall, as a sushi fanatic who doesn't like to break the bank each time we go out, this is my go-to and we'll be back every time we're in town.

The staff was attentive and engaging, especially when helping us decide what to try from the menu. The spicy fried chicken was tasty, though I was hoping for a bit more heat. The calamari tempura was fried perfectly -- light, crispy, and honestly one of the highlights of the meal. The Shrek roll was incredibly fresh and served nicely chilled. My only complaint was the katsu chicken, which came with way too much curry sauce and overpowered the dish a bit. Other than that, everything was enjoyable and I'd definitely return to try more items from the menu.
