Never in a million years would I have guessed from the outside how much we would enjoy this place. Salmon sashimi was like butter, service was wonderful. The inside is quiet and inviting. Will most definitely be back often. read more

Sushi Maku - Dragon Ball! SOOOO GOOD! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Sloppy dining room, no soap in the restroom, average selection. No soap in the bathroom? That's egregious - it looked like it'd been dry for awhile. First impression was sloppiness - walking in and seeing a very untidy sushi bar, no one greeted me so I sat myself and grabbed a menu. The selections on the menu are average - nothing special, but not even salmon belly which is sad. Service was below average - I turned in an order with a sashimi sampler, no rice roll and 3 sashimi dishes. Two tables were sat in the restaurant and yet it took 21 minutes to get the first item which is highly unusual for any sushi place. I did see a lot of to-go orders being made and put into bags and maybe they don't care about a customer sitting at the bar as much as U er Eats - who knows - I just know that I'm normally given something much much much much quicker without watching a revolving door on a toaster oven. They use a small cheap toaster oven right at the back of the bar which is a bad look if you want to pretend you're a quality place. Ding! Ding! Check out the picture and decide if you think they are cleaned every day. Or ever? Service - the server actually took my iPhone early on and I didn't realize it for a bit - went to my car thinking I had maybe left it there. It wasn't in my car. I came back in and asked her about it and we found it under a napkin and menu she had whisked away from me when I placed my order. I also asked her about Sapporo vs Kirin Ichiban on which was fresher. She replied, "they're both good". The bottle of Sapporo I received had an October 2024 date on it. It's March 2025. No dirty dishes were picked up at all during my stay - I'll include a picture of my area when my check was dropped off and I waited for my card to be rung as they took care of more take out orders. Sushi - first dish was the snapper and salmon sashimi. The snapper tasted tired - not severely pff but definitely not fresh with hints of fridge burn and age. Salmon was fine but again, average. Sashimi sampler A - 8 pieces. But it wasn't sashimi - piece of fake Keab and a cooked shrimp were included. I asked the waitress and she said their customers liked it and I explained that it still says sashimi on the menu so that's what I expected. Eel - looked nice. Really hard to judge as it was absolutely overwhelmed I. Their thick sauce. Normally that tells me the meat wasn't great but I can't say for sure - just crazily heavy handed o. The sauce. Back off! Let the eel speak for itself! Presentation - decent - sushi places generally nail this and I give Sushi Maku a solid average with nothing jumping out negatively or positively over most places. Obviously I've had high end sushi several times and Iits confusing for me to see this place with over a 4 star rating when a place way way better is similarly rated so I have to correct for that. The lack of decent choice in sashimi automatically starts you at a 4, sloppiness cost a half point. The bathroom cost a full point - no soap? Really? And false advertising on sashimi? Yeah, this place is average but gets knocked down to two stars for the bathroom and false advertising I love sushi - I want to clear the confusion to people on the difference so average and below average places need low ratings. Above average places need high ratings. Help educate with reality. This is not a 4+ star place in any way. Go somewhere else. read more

A solid sushi spot that's enjoyable once you find the entrance. I have no major complaints, the sushi was pretty good, I would put it somewhere near the middle of the pack of sushi in Dallas. read more

Great sushi and fast service. I visited once and can't stop going because the prices are so reasonable and the sushi is fresh.

Great fried rice. The sushi looks really good as well. Great people. Large portions. Fast and efficient.

This is now our go to place. First time trying this restaurant. The food came out fresh. We have been on the hunt for stuffed jalapeños. The food we ordered hit the spot. This is a must try location. Thank me later read more

Good value lunch specials. Hostess and sushi chef are two of the most unfriendly people I've ever met. Painful to eat there. read more

I live in the area and I get takeout here often. Absolutely love the sushi here! My go to is always the butterfly kiss roll and then I like to try a new roll sometimes. I've had the shrimp tempura roll, dragon, and dragon fly. All delicious! read more

Great spot right off the DNT! We were surprised it wasn't busier because the food was great, the owners are friendly, and very clean restaurant with nice decor. I would recommend the raw rolls over the tempura ones. read more

Party of 6 and we decided to have dinner here. It was a Saturday night and it wasn't at all busy. There was one more table of customers along with people picking up their to go orders. We sat down and the server took about 20 mins to come get our drink orders. Then, receiving our actual drinks took another 10 minutes... At this point were more then ready to order our food. We even had enough time to memorize the menu word by word.. We all had different rolls and we all came to the same conclusion. They were not it.... They did not taste fresh, were very soggy, and they easily fell apart. There was only one server doing it all and she was a running mess. Not even friendly. In total, we were there close to 3 hours for no reason... Their priority is definitely the "to go orders" and for us customers dining in, we seemed to just be in their way. I'm pretty sure there is something better out there in the streets of Dallas. read more

The food was delicious. The cozy atmosphere made for a delightful meal and the lights were well lit! The server was extremely kind and attentive to our needs! read more

Sushi Maku - Butterfly kiss roll - riceless - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I got delivery from here through Uber Eats one weeknight. I will only have the Uber Eats pricing for this one. I got a Miso Soup $2.20, an order of Fried Beef Gyoza $7.00 for 6 pcs, Philadelphia Roll $7.75, Butterfly Kiss Roll $13.25, Pink Lady Roll $13.25, Ninja Roll $13.25 and an order of Salmon Sashimi $15.95 for 6 pcs. The soup was good but generic. The gyoza did not travel well and ended up being steamed, just alright flavor wise. The Philadelphia roll was good but also generic. I really don't know why I keep getting the Butterfly type rolls as they are always lacking in texture. I did like the taste of both the Ninja and the Pink lady rolls. The salmon on top of the Pink Lady roll seemed cooked which was weird and not sure if that is how it normally comes or not. The Ninja roll is pretty good even though it is a fully fried roll. The different sauces and the cream cheese inside go well together. The sashimi was great, the quality and taste were on point and the size of the pieces was quite large. Overall pretty good and would order form again, especially at their price point since Uber marks up each item. The only complaint I have is with the Uber Eats driver who got lost but did not speak English but that is not the restaurants fault. read more

Delicious food!Menu has a lot of variety but with pictures to help decide which is super helpful. I wish they gave out more ginger and wasabi on the plates but overall the rolls were full of flavor and were very filling. Service was kind and attentive. Will be coming back! read more

The food is amazing, the service is personal, the space is intimate . I love the Texas Rangers

Ordered this place on UberEats and it was bombbbb! Not a fan of the beef teriyaki but the sushi rolls are so good!

I was surprised by the size of nigiris. The fish was big covering entire rice and also fresh. Yellowtail wasn't the fattest part but still enjoyed it. The pick up was easy and they also provided free ponzu upon request. I ordered two rolls (I believe were called Samurai and crunch crab). The Samurai roll was tasty but the crunch crab roll was only ok. I would like to dine in next time to have my rolls and sushi more fresh. Definitely will be go to sushi restaurant. read more

Food (** out of *****); This is supermarket sushi sold at restaurant prices. The Alaska roll should have a nice big slice of salmon on top. Instead, there is only a tiny sliver of salmon on top. I invite you to take a look at my pictures. There is nothing special about any of the rolls and sauces. You may find the exact same thing for a cheaper price at your local supermarket. However, the price is not supermarket sushi price. You're paying restaurant prices for supermarket quality sushi. Service (*** out of *****); However, to their credit, the sushi is fresh and the service is quick. The service was neither courteous nor friendly, though. I asked for a substitution for one of the items in the sushi rolls and I was turned down. It was not a more expensive substitution, either. Decor (*** out of *****); All the decor was from the previous restaurant's owner. Everything was very tired and old. They need to replace the worn out seat pillows and cushions, for example. However, the place was clean, which is good. Conclusion (** out of *****); This isn't a bad restaurant. You could do worse. However, the value just isn't there. Basically, you're paying restaurant prices for supermarket sushi. With 6 sushi restaurants within running distance of each other in this neighborhood, I'd take a pass on this one due to lack of value. Take a look at all the most recent reviews. About 30% of them are negative reviews. The average from recent reviews is about 3 stars. Most of the positive reviews were from years ago when this restaurant was owned by another sushi chef. read more

Sushi Maku - Shrimp tempura roll (top), Alaska roll (bottom). - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Great service and affordable prices. Eaten in restaurant and take out. Both great. New to sushi, so only had the basic rolls.

I can't even comment on the food as we did not stay there long enough to order. My 23 yr old daughter and I went for a very early dinner on a Monday 530 to be exact. We walked in and were not greeted, but went straight to sit at the sushi bar as that what we usually do. The sushi chef behind the bar said we couldn't sit there and to take a seat so that is what we did. I recently had rotator cuff surgery, so I wanted to sit at a larger table to assure not being bumped on either side and mind you, we were told to seat ourselves. There was nobody else in the restaurant except For two men sitting at a four top. As the owner/hostess finally came out to bring us menus she said to us, only two people can you move? At that point I was beyond irritated. Mind you the sushi bar was not open because they were using it as their personal Office with papers scattered everywhere and not the friendliest welcome walking in. I proceeded to get up with my daughter and told the owner, I think we're just going to leave, we can't sit at the bar, we can't sit here so apparently you do not want my business. As we started to walk out the door, the sushi chef behind the bar hollered out bye as if him losing customers meant nothing to him. So from my experience, they do not need business nor want business if that is how they treat customers just walking in the door! No thank you! read more

Love this place so much, it's a gem I got the butterfly kiss, the Arizona, and the combo fried rice. The steak in the fried rice was soooo good! And the butterfly kiss is my go-to. I love getting my lunch from here too during the week, they have great prices! read more

Walking in, I felt this wonderful charm of a cozy, Japanese spot in the suburbs, but my enchantment slowly faded to contempt and emptiness as the meal progressed. I started off with the soft shell crab tempura and fried beef gyoza. Both items were left in the fryer way longer than they should have been. The outside breading itself was scorched in certain spots. The crab definitely had a great crunch, but the over frying ended up zapping any juice the crab would have had. The scorched oil left a dirty taste in between bites. Same feeling for the gyoza, with a few edges completely singed. There was also a lack of moisture in the dumpling dough, though surprisingly some of the fillings still had a drop of moisture. I ordered the scorpion roll, which I thought would hit the spot, but ended up leaving me quite confused and frustrated. The sauce they use on this was very odd. Similar to an unagi sauce, but with a malty profile. It was quite strong and over masked the other items. I could feel the creaminess of the roll, but I sure as hell couldn't taste it. This roll had crabmeat, but they might as well have used tofu for all I know. Structure wise it was quite solid. Not once did the rolls unravel or lose their texture. I will at least give my hat off in this regard. The mackerel sushi nigiri was the only highlight of the meal. Granted not the highest quality mackerel, but at least the rice had a nice, vinegar taste with the fish having a meaty, robust profile. Maybe if I ordered just a Philadelphia roll, I would have been better off. But I doubt it would have been that drastically different. It's a shame that I didn't have a similar experience as the others. If for any reason I find myself back here, I'll probably stick to only sashimi. read more

Came on Monday for a business lunch, party of two. The hostess was gracious and let me grab a table for both of us as I waited for the other person in my party. As I looked through the lunch menu (there are several really good all-day deals) I noticed that the salmon skin roll was on the regular roll menu but not in the choices for the 2 for $9.95 deal, and when I asked I was told that I couldn't substitute it, which was a bit of a bummer. I ended up getting salmon sashimi and a salmon skin roll, both at regular menu pricing, since $5.95 for a roll isn't bad at all. The other person in my party got salmon nigiri and a rainbow roll. When we finally ordered most of the lunch crowd had cleared out but it still took a little longer than I'm used to for the food to come out, and when the salmon nigiri came out there was no wasabi on the side. No problem though, I had more than enough with my sashimi and was able to share. :) The food itself was excellent - loved the crunch in the salmon skin roll, and it wasn't too rice heavy. The flavors were great. The salmon sashimi was cut thick and juicy, and I actually got 7 slices even though the menu advertises 5-6 per order of sashimi. Overall, I would definitely come back if in the area for some good sushi at an affordable price. read more

Sushi Maku - salmon sashimi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Love this place! Best sushi in the area! I've always had the absolute best experiences here.

Awesome food, and a great lunch menu! For $12 you can get a signature roll, House roll, miso soup and ginger salad all for a low cost! Sushi seemed to be fresh and the portions were large. Only complaint was that they seemed a bit rice heavy. Such a great find tucked away in the Addison area! They had hand sanitizer and plexiglass booth dividers, as well as single use soy sauce, plates, forks, chopsticks read more

This is our favorite restaurant for sushi. My granddaughter loves this place. The best shrimp fried rice also.

Food was great, the sushimi was fast and fresh. The rolls were the size we like them. I know it sounds strange but I don't like when rolls are too big to eat in one bite. The service was great, we were there a few minutes before they opened but they opened the door for us anyway. My son is still learning chopsticks so our server brought out a plastic clip to help him. Great experience. read more

Overall a pretty good eat, I picked it up so not too much to say as far as the service. They were quick to provide my food. Everything was delicious the only reason I took off a star was because the vegetable fried rice has no additional vegetables like broccoli, water chestnuts or anything read more

This is the first place we have picked up from since March. Note, the website allows you to order for Friday 10 to 11 am pick up but since they make the rice fresh each day, give another hour on that. Love, love their rolls. Great customer service since we didn't know about the Friday morning hour, we were way too early. This is my birthday spot. read more

With so many amazing places in Dallas, you get spoiled by the best. This place is on the lower end of mediocre. I would never go back again. It's just okay. Nothing special and the rolls had so much sauce on them the rice was soggy. This is our second visit. Both visits had the same outcome nearly 1 year apart. read more

This place is our go to!!! If you are thinking of trying out any other sushi place think again I've been going here for about 2 years. The staff are sweet and welcoming. The food comes out fast and fresh. Inside is a great environment and they are always playing sports which is great! This place has a special place in my heart ! read more

This was our first time visiting Sushi Maku and it was fantastic. We got several sushi rolls and they were fresh and super tasty. The owners were also very friendly. We will definitely be visiting again. read more

I would give this place 10 stars if I could!! This is a family owned restaurant and its always the most amazing feeling coming here. It is the same waitress every time and she remembers faces very well! There are always $5 Sake bombs and greatly priced rolls! I could come here every night of the week! read more

We had always come in for dinner here. The lunch specials are ridiculous so the gf and I did one lunch special each. Start off with tasty miso soup and an interesting salad. Add to that a total of 4 rolls and we were both stuffed. The choices are limited to include 2 sets of rolls, but there are plenty of good options within those sets. We did: Damn good: it is, we order it every time and you should too. Hurricane: also a solid choice, a little lighter than damn good rolls, would order again Love: deep fried, super heavy, wasn't quite our style may try something else next time Cowboy: chili sauce is bomb, a little spicey for the gf, but pretty great for me read more

Excellent little sushi joint that my wife and I just discovered. We had a wide variety of sushi and several rolls. All were delicious and we will be back!! read more

Great sushi and conversations! We've been coming for years for great rolls and the heart attack.

It's a small family owned sushi joint by the tollway in North Dallas. Food is always good, fresh and the sushi creations are creative and yum! Blue Fish is actually just down the street but we very much prefer the hands-on, impeccable, thoughtful service over at Sushi Maku! Even on their busiest nights, the owners make you feel welcomed and are attentive. Try the ahi tower, it's always our fave! Even after moving to Little Elm, whenever we find ourselves in the area, we stop by and enjoy a sushi dinner. We will continue to support them, consistently awesome food & service! read more
