Makomae Japanese Cuisine

First of all, the food is decent. Fishes are fresh, sushi rice is incredible, and also have fish directly from Japan. However, the overall dining experience was bad.
We had a party of 4 and arrived at the restaurant around 5:25 pm. We saw some people standing outside already. Thus, we went into the restaurant and signed on the check-in sheet. A couple of minutes later, a guy came in and told us they were here before us but didn't sign the sheet. He asked us to give him our spot. I was speechless and told him to ask the server. Surprisingly, the server said some staff saw they arrived before us, so they just gave him the spot. WOW, so next time, I have to ask everyone outside the restaurant to ensure they've checked in already as a customer?
Later, 2 of us returned to the car to keep waiting since the waiting area was too small. After waiting for 50 minutes, the server refused to seat us because we didn't have a full party in the waiting area and told us to wait outside. This is ridiculous, we explained the situation and told her the rest 2 people are in the parking lot. The server's attitude was bad but still seated us as we insisted.
Again, the food was good, but we won't come back again. It's better to spend money wisely.

Very good sushi restaurant. The restaurant has great fish, with some fresh fish from Japan, and others that are frozen. The fish tastes really good, with great quality. The rice to fish ratio on rolls and nigiri is really good. The service is quick and good. There are some sushi bar seating, where you can talk to and watch the chefs.

Definitely worth a visit

Their sashimi is very good and fresh. Especially the uni from Japan! Would recommend to someone who enjoys nice quality sushi/sashimi.

Keeping this short.. We absolutely love this place. Makomae never ceases to satisfy us. Their quality is great for their price point and market. The ambiance is cute and service is great. They do get very busy at times so plan ahead. We usually go for lunch because dinner is a huge wait for a table. They do offer to-go and we have done this before. It's a great option if you're close by as I'm not a big fan of to-go sushi especially if you have to drive home for 20 minutes, but that's just me. This place is authentic. Don't go there looking for a cowboy roll or they'll probably go to the back and laugh at you..I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

Phoned in to make a reservation for 4 at 5:30 on a Wednesday evening. When we came in, the sushi bar was already full so people had to wait. They seem to get a lot of to go orders too.

We ordered the 10pc omakase and the server informed us that if we weren’t full afterwards, we can add 5 more pieces to our meal. The omakase was 10pc/$58 and 15pc/$88. The omakase was really fresh and we loved every piece. The extra 5 pieces that we added to our omakase was even tastier than our original 10 piece.

We also ordered shrimp and vegetable tempura, miso cod, and baby bombs. The tempura was like your average tempura, but the miso cod was soft and juicy. The baby bombs were very flavorful and juicy from the mushrooms.

At the end of your meal, they give a scoop of ice cream.

One of the best sushi places I’ve been to in the states. The fish is super fresh and melts in your mouth. The restaurant is run by Japanese people and the chefs are also Japanese. However, this place can get superrrrr busy. We came around 12 and had to wait around an hour. The restaurant itself is small, so your food comes out reasonably quickly. The service is attentive. It’s a great restaurant with great food! The quality is worth the price! They also have fish you can get that’s flown from Japan. Crazy!

Taste :3.7/5
Environment: 4.1/5
Service：4.1/5

It’s the a delicate place you need to set the different expectation .
Omakase start with 10 pieces with market price .It’s totally out of my expectation to this place .
You can find the rice on the outer of seedweed! Really?
They change the shape the sushi need to where it stay .
Also ….The fried baby octopus! Not a crunchy skin and barely can taste the octopus? Don’t tell me because you are the baby 😖😒
