Anytime I go to Zocalo, I pick up at least a roll or goyza from Mordern Maki. Such affordable prices, and a wide variety or rolls and appetizers. You order online or from the QR code in the huts, and it is ready within 15 minutes! Last night I picked it up on my way home from work, and just ordered online, picked up, and enjoyed from the comfort of my home. Previously, I have eaten at Zocolo in the huts, which are so cozy and offers a wide variety of food trucks to choose from, this one being my favorite! read more

Good price for a good sweet potato tempura roll! I cannot leave Zocalo without getting this and taiyaki!

Food was incredible I got the tokyo bowl and would get it every time really a great place.

I don't do sushi very often and it's not because I don't like sushi I just don't care for sticky white rice or any white rice because it does absolutely nothing for me but since it is what sushi is I have to suck it up once in a while. I do have to do sushi once in a while because I like the freshness and the layers of flavor combinations and since I do it so little I know nothing about sushi and I just order what sounds good. I ordered the hot flamin sushi burrito which is spicy salmon, spicy crab, eel, avocado, cucumber and spicy hot ramen for crunch. My burrito came with chop sticks, cute dipping tray, 4 soy sauce and 3 napkins in the bag and I was surprised to get chop sticks because a burrito is a hand held food that requires no utensils at all. The soy sauce is a god send because it makes the white rice edible for me. My hot flamin burrito came with ginger slices and a ball of wasabi which was on point because it had the nice clay like texture and proper nasal awakening action and complemented my burritos nicely. I was surprised to find a piece of blackened white fish in the end of my burrito because it's not listed as being in the hot flamin burrito. My burrito was very good and tasty which hit the spot even though it has all that white rice in it. read more

I've only visited twice, but both visits have been very good! On my first visit, I ordered the Eel & Avocado roll and the Spicy Tuna Roll. Both were delicious and tased fresh! The sushi rice was on point! On my second visit, I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen. Tonkotsu style is my go-to for ramen, and I've had it at just about every place in town that offers it. I love the slighly salty, yet savory flavor of the pork-based broth, as well as the mouth feel of the broth's milky texture. Modern Maki impressed me with their Tonkotsu Ramen! Their Tonkotsu broth is definitely top 3 or 4 that I've had in town! The pork belly was practically fall-apart tender and delicious, and the bamboo shoots, fish cake, and other toppings were also on point. I skipped the corn because I don't think corn belongs in ramen, but that's just a personal preference thing. You want to pick up corn kernels with chop sticks? Have at it. What I really appreciated and found unique was that they serve the broth in a large bowl and the noodles and toppings in a separate smaller bowl that hovers near the top of the broth bowl, hanging by the rim of the bowl, so they don't make contact and don't get soggy. It is an absolutely brilliant design and perfect execution! The broth stayed hot, the lid was tight, and I loved every delicious bite. It's too bad the Health Dept. requires the boiled eggs to be fully cooked from a food truck, so they can't serve the proper soft soy egg, but this egg certainly did not disappoint. I look forward to trying sashimi and negiri, as well as a sushi burrito, so I can get a full idea of what Modern Maki can do, but so far, I'm a fan! read more

I visited Modern Maki over the weekend to take advantage of the sunny weather. I ordered the Crunchy Munchy Roll and the Vegetarian Ramen. I did not use the app to order, so there was something of a wait. That is my only critique really. The truck didn't appear to be terribly busy, but who knows how many delivery orders they were working on. The roll was crunchy, as promised, with a well balanced mix of flavors. Two chopsticks up for this. My ramen was packaged smartly, with the noodles and ingredients separated from the broth so the broth stayed hot and the ingredients wouldn't get soggy. The broth flavor was complex and well developed. It was not as deep as a mushroom base would be, but it was good and flavorful. There were plenty of noodles included to satisfy. I enjoyed this a lot and would certainly go back, read more

I went up to the truck with a friend and we ordered two rolls of sushi. She said can I get a (whatever she got) roll and I said and can I get a cucumber roll. Originally I wanted to order the tamago sushi but they were out of stock so that was a major bummer for me. We paid together since it was only two rolls. We were having a quick snack before a nearby exercise class so we didn't want to overeat. I suppose since we paid together that's why the sushi came together in one box which is fine. I thought it was strange that the food truck person only gave the two of us one pair of chopsticks and one soy sauce dish to eat our sushi with. We ended up passing the chopsticks back and forth a couple times until I went back to the truck to ask for another pair. We went at a time that did not seem busy and it took somewhere between 5-10 minutes for the two rolls of sushi to be made. Overall I think the cucumber roll that I ate tasted good although it's hard to mess that up. A positive sign is that I believe the knives they use are clean. I am a lacto vegetarian and do not eat fish eggs, sometimes I notice fish eggs on my sushi from dirty knives or stations at most restaurants. I did not have any stray fish eggs on my cucumber roll signifying clean working conditions in the truck. Seeing my cucumber rolls look nice and clean made me happy. I would definitely come back here when I am in the area with my friend. Hopefully the chopstick thing was a one time mistake because I don't want to be known as the girl who keeps coming back to ask for more chopsticks. The food truck area only had two picnic tables that I noticed but I'm sure there would be more if I kept searching. There are bathroom facilities which I did not use. After getting onto the sidewalk I do not recall ever seeing any steps so I believe the area is wheelchair accessible, the only issue would be the height of the counter at all of the trucks so an employee may need to come out of the truck to accept payment and hand over food. read more

Continuing my trend of trying new things at Zocalo Food Park, I had some veggie rolls from Modern Maki today, this being my first time getting food from this vendor. The rolls are fresh and definitely satisfying for about $4 each. I generally prefer the tempura rolls with the rice on the outside, but the ones I ordered where pretty good. I also got a melon flavored Japanese soda and with tip an all, I had an under $20 dinner. Check them out! read more

Decided to treat myself to some Ramen today. Unfortunately this was the most flavorless underwhelming ramen I've ever tasted. Fool me once. Thank God i happened to order a maki roll as well. The tempura roll was good. I wouldn't bother ordering their ramen ever again. read more

Fast, fresh, and so friendly! I came here for the sushi burrito and it was great - I didn't realize until I got there that they have a whole section of the menu dedicated to just that. Perfect place to go when the weather is nice or when you're with a large group. Everyone can get exactly what they want and there are tables to spread out and enjoy the day. read more

I created a Yelp account expressly to write this review. Despite not having many / good reviews I ordered delivery from Modern Maki this evening. Honestly, this was the most fresh, flavorful, and generally delicious sushi I have had in Milwaukee. I ordered the Mexican and Storm rolls -- both great -- Storm was my favorite. Probably also the most satisfying meal I've had delivered since the start of the pandemic. Definitely my new favorite sushi joint. read more
