I feel like this is the perfect description of a "hidden gem" I have been a few times and it is always so good, so fresh and I feel for the quality and price it's very fair! The staff is also really friendly and you can usually just get right in! I would definitely recommend the sashimi and the rice less rolls. I had the JJ and it was so good! The tuna was so flavorful and almost buttery! It's a great location in the heart of uptown, you could get a drink at Bowen House or Written by the Seasons and then walk on over. read more

Maji Sushi - J.J. Roll and tuna tower - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Food was INCREDIBLE. Worth every penny. There were a few first dates going on around my friend and I so it's great for any occasion. There was a regular sitting at the sushi bar and swore this was the best sushi around Uptown (since it was my first time here). Staff is very attentive and checks on you often but not in an annoying way. It's very clean, nice, and has a great small spot vibe. I wouldn't have known about it due to its location in a strip mall but definitely worth finding and checking out!!! read more

Ordered an assortment of sushi, tunas, yellow tail, red tail, unagi, anago. Very friendly Japanese chef. Fresh. Perfectly prepared and presented. Some of the best sushi I have ever had. And I loved the 80's soundtrack. This restaurant is highly recommended! read more

What can be better than a little light sushi when you want a little like something to eat my food was expertly prepared by the chefs behind the counter. It looked as good as it tasted. They have very unique roles here and lots of choices. This is a convenient place in the neighborhood. read more

I don't give 5 stars often- but the price point, service, and quality of fish was amazing. The indoor seating was clean and comfortable. We started off with a bottle of Pinot ($32) and our service was so kind to not only wrap it but get a bottle cooler. It was light and paired well with sushi. We got the Cajun edamame ($7) and it had so much flavor! A great fusion dish with a spicy kick. The salmon avocado roll ($10) had huge fresh slices of salmon. The maji roll ($18) had a hot tempera that didn't make the fresh fish taste any differently. They gave us chocolates at checkout and had super reasonable tip options. We opted to tip more than 20% since the service was so kind and affordable. Great hidden place for a nice date night or night out!! read more

Very much a hole in the wall with high quality sushi! There's tons of roll options but we opted for sashimi as the pricing makes more sense with sashimi 3pc. We were the first one here at noon on Saturday and one other party showered up. Our waitress was nice, she came by frequently to remove plates and refill our glasses. My fav was seared salmon, a thick cut but deliciously seared. Yellowtail carpaccio was also flavorful. read more

This is an unassuming family owned sushi restaurant in a strip mall. This place can sit roughly 20ish people and the service here is so very nice. I tend to come here when in town and dining solo and they've always been welcoming. The cuts of nigiri and sashimi are generous cuts by today's standards. I tend to mix up my order here and usually order way too much: Salad - a hefty portion of greens with a ginger sesame dressing Tempura - I like their vegetable tempura. A mix of veggies battered and golden fried. Nigiri and sashimi - nice cuts and well prepared. I like the botan ebi and fatty tuna. Will be back when I'm in the area. read more

Cute little neighborhood sushi place. It is intimate and small inside. The waiters are very attentive. I think it would have been helpful to know what the special of the day was and maybe some recommendations. Would definitely come back to try more ideas and hopefully can catch their lunch special. read more

Waitress was unknowledgeable about menu items. Also was kind of annoying they didn't have any high chairs so we had to hold our baby the whole time so if you're coming with kids keep that in mind. read more

A fantastic dining experience. The service was great, food was excellent, and a small business environment. Let me start with the Philly. We started with Shishido peppers and the yellowtail carpaccio. Also, the cucumber, shrimp and squid salad was awesome. We were a bunch of rules, which were all good. Everything was fresh and the temperature of the sushi was perfect not too cold or too warm like some places. We closed out the night with a tempura fried green tea ice cream. read more

Bright and Cheerful Neighborhood Sushi Bar. Friendly and Attentive Service. With future visits, I'll be skipping their heavily battered 'shrimp tempura' and not refined 'rice'. Instead of ordering sushi, I am anticipating to be smiling big once again at their generous portions of incredibly fresh "Sashimi", including Toro; Yellowtail; and, Shima-Aji! CHEERS! read more

Sushi was decent. The sushi was very cold, I didn't like the temperature of it. My spicy tuna in my roll was a bit mushy. Service was okay. Ambiance, small intimate restaurant. Snow crab nigiri was great. Would I return? Yes.. read more

Cute little hole in the wall- family owed restaurant. They were all super friendly. All the rolls are pretty standard Dallas prices $11-$20 rolls. I got the golden California roll and the Cajun Crawfish Roll. I thought they were both good, I didn't think they were over the top or anything, but I've heard that their really good rolls are raw. So since mine weren't the raw rolls, maybe that's why I wasn't blown away. If you order a soft drink, they come from the bottle (not fountain), which is totally fine. Overall I'd go back. read more

Had a great dining experience here! Was traveling for work and was seeking a solo sushi date and this was the perfect spot! I got to sit right in front of sushi chefs, watching them make the different rolls which I always enjoy. Service was quick and friendly. The sushi was delicious and fresh. Would definitely return if they had one of these where I live. Would recommend for a great, casual sushi spot. read more

Maji Sushi - Chefs special roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I am a little bit torn on posting this review. Maji has some of the best sushi I've ever had, but I hope it doesn't get too busy to where I can never get a table. We started with the shrimp tempura because they were out of the baby octopus tempura. The shrimp was very good, and the batter was light and crispy. Octopus next time! Next, we moved onto the salmon tartare which has a very unique presentation, and it was amazing - - fresh salmon and perfectly ripe avocados topped with an egg yolk. It is always difficult to get a runny egg just right, and this one was perfect. It was runny but with a little bit of stickiness that helped hold everything together in the dish. After that, we got 2 types of nigiri, unagi and a different type of maguro (forgot the name but melts in the mouth). Then, the chef brought out an additional tuna with a special soy sauce that was slightly seared. It was phenomenal and had a slightly smoky taste to it. We tried the Snow Mountain Roll (yellowtail, crab, white tuna with rice and two sauces) and the Tuna Lover Roll (no rice, salmon, crab, and avocado wrapped in soy paper then topped with tuna and yuzu ponzu). The inside is cute and only holds 39 people. The only suggestion I have is to put some pillows along the bench seat to lean against. They serve all filtered water, and the service was great. Dallas really needs more restaurants like this that are small, cozy, and unique with character. Everything here was top-notch! Highly recommend and added some photos of the dishes we tried and the inside (at lunchtime). read more

The sushi is of excellent quality. The Japanese staff are attentive and thorough. Highly recommended.

I absolutely loved this place!! Service was amazing the entire staff was welcoming. Every piece of fish was so fresh and delicious. Mango salmon roll was crazy good. Maji is definitely becoking a regular spot for me now. Small but cute inside read more

I have to admit when I arrived I was bothered because it smelled like there might be some plumbing issues. I thought, let's just eat fast and get going since the reviews are great. After ordering, our food didn't come for close to an hour. About 50 minutes, I kindly asked if she knew why it was taking so long. She mentioned there was only one chef for the day and he takes his time. I regretted asking because the quality was so good. My friend said "I saw he takes his time like he is perfecting each piece." I tried the unagi, I've never paid $5 for *one* piece and I couldn't help but order a few more! The chef later came over to apologize and offered a discount. I said no we can not accept(the food and quality was too good, worthy of the cost and wait.) He offered dessert and we couldn't pass that up lol the cheesecake was absolutely divine, I could cry. Overall I can see the chef is very passionate about his craft and must have learned from someone who also takes pride in their craft. Would love to eat here again. read more

Amazing food, great service! For appetizers ordered the avocado bomb and veggie tempura, both were great and the price was very fair for a sushi spot. Tempura breading was not too thick, veggies were delicious. We followed that up with sake (salmon) and maguro (tuna) sashimi. It was clear from the moment our server set it down that the cut was high quality, and flavor did NOT disappoint! The next course was a pair of sushi rolls, both were delicious and clearly prepared with care. The chef even gave us a couple specials free of charge, both tasty and very much appreciated! I live near the beach in California, a place where seafood rarely disappoints. I was not expecting sushi in Dallas to be amazing (something about the landlocked nature makes me doubt the quality) but this is some of the best sushi I've had regardless of locations! I'll absolutely be back, and a thanks to the chefs and the servers that made our night so special!! read more

Worst service I have ever had in a restaurant in my life. The waitress would not answer questions. Then she went over to another waitress to laugh, point, and talk about us. Worst experience ever. EXCEPT for the chef. He was awesome and tried to make it right. read more

Great sushi place that offers both Americanized rolls and more traditional pieces, all of which are delicious. The regular salmon avo roll was pretty typical, but I loved the shrimp tempura and spider rolls, all of which had more ingredients balancing the flavors out than I expected. The rainbow roll tasted really fresh. Furthermore. The staff were wonderful and accommodating. Will be coming back! read more

Good food and service. Inside is more of an intimate setting, doesn't feel stuffy though. I had the baked salmon and that was great. The sushi chef gave us some samplers too so we got to try out the cucumber salad and seared salmon. The salmon was nice and tender, I preferred it over the seared tuna that I ordered. Overall everything is nice. Parking is a bit odd to get onto thou. read more

We live around the corner and come here twice a month for date night!!! Such good sushi!!! And affordable!!

I can't even put into words how AMAZING this sushi spot is!! Everything is so unbelievably fresh. The tuna literally melted in my mouth. I've been to a ton of high end sushi spots and it's the exact same quality!! 1000/10 will always recommend this spot to anyone read more

Just left this place right now, will not be coming back. Waitress seemed put off by having to serve us. Anytime we ordered something she would go back laughing all we asked for was a box and sauce. Coming from 2 service industry people this was awful service she's lucky we even tipped her she was terrible and should probably find a new career. The sushi was a 5/10 very mid I'm not sure what the hype about this place was there are way better sushi places in Dallas read more

Excellent food and service. Small, intimate atmosphere for date nights or small get-togethers with friends.

Absolutely amazing! The service was so great and the food was incredible! Debating coming back to visit another time this week before leaving Dallas! Along with a menu filled with lots of apps & rolls, they bring you a paper where you just write how many nigiri & how many sashimi you want of each and I'm in love! The Bluefin Toro & Fatty tuna were absolutely mouthwatering! read more

Sushi is very good, the place is cutely decorated with a date ambiance, but I've had better service at a fast food restaurant. Also, the text for the lunch special is a little misleading. Each entree is supposed to come with a miso soup and california roll, but we only got the soup (we ordered rolls). read more

Great little sushi place with a nice menu. It is a bit small but in a good way. They don't try to pack in too much seating so it stays quiet and peaceful. The service was great as was the quality of seafood. They even provide freshly ground wasabi as opposed to the rehydrated overpowering paste offered by others. If you have never had fresh wasabi, you are missing out. The sushi chef was also very patient to some overly demanding guests sitting a few seats down the bar. I would go again. read more

Great neighborhood sushi place that had a tough challenge following the previous owner. Maji has a really good selection of different fish cuts, even less common things like flounder and different kinds of eel. Fish is great quality and flavor. Good selection of other dishes like tuna tataki or tuna tartare. All very tasty and well prepared by a chef that smiles joyfully with every item he's preparing. read more
