    Our lunch special - fresh, fresh, fresh
    John K.

    Nice restaurant, plenty of parking, awesomely-fresh food, friendly and competent staff - we met for lunch and had a delightful time. Yes, we will come back

    Sake and sushi were delicious!! There were good combinations and everything we tried was satisfying -- Saki Maki, Firecracker and Manny. The white peach sake was a good option out of several enticing ones. To top it off, the Valentine's Day velvet cake was sooooo good. As for environment, it's a small restaurant so it gave off quick lunch vibes rather than a sit down dinner.

    Orange and Yoko

    It was my very first time in here and I absolutely loved it! The ambiance is nice, the service is AMAZING! And let me go on about the food The Yoko and Chris just became my very favorite sushi for now on. The only bad comment I have it's that Google Maps is not allowing to do review for Maki Toki and so we couldn't give the 5 stars they deserved on there as well..

    Jade Roll and Chris Roll

    My fiancé and I went on a Friday around 9pm. The service was great! We ordered the crab Rangoons and they were ok, not much flavor. We also ordered the Jade roll and the Chris roll. Additional I got the California and the Crunchy Shrimp (fried) . The place was rather empty but still good and tasty food.

    Maki Toki is my favorite, hidden gem! I go here when I want more of a lowkey vibe without sacrificing quality. I've been several times over the last 4 or 5 years and I have been consistently impressed. It's never super busy, the staff is super chill and friendly, and the prices are hard to beat! You really can't go wrong with the sushi rolls, I recommend you plan on trying all of them eventually! I'm looking forward to my next visit!

    Cute little ducked off cozy spot. Delicious options and free appetizers with the purchase of 2 rolls. The sushi was good a little bland but fresh. The calamari was dry AF! Over cooked but surly really good lol... kinda like a jerky... not sure that's what they were going for but I liked it the service was great, very friendly staff (I think they were the owners) will definitely return to try the other options.

    Tima Roll, Miso soup, seaweed salad

    So yummy!! I got the Tima roll, the crunchy shrimp - not fried (pictured) and the firecracker but we subbed crab! All so yummy!! The Tima was my favorite. Shrimp friend rice also had a great flavor, I could smell it while it was being cooked. I got a small miso & seaweed salad. Both hits! I love that they're open till 11. And Tima our waitress was super helpful and sweet. We'll definitely be back.

    My husband and I had such high hopes for this place, as the pictures looked good and it's pretty close to home. However, everything was so disappointing. When we walked in, we noticed that there weren't but two other people there, at 6PM, but it was a Wednesday, so we thought maybe thats why. We were greeted by the waitress, and asked if we could sit at the bar. She told us that was allowed because of "Covid". Okay, no problem, we sat in a booth. We then began looking over the menu, which is structured really poorly, does not have good descriptions of the rolls, and is not even in alphabetical order so you can find them easily, from what's on the happy hour menu. It was such a mess. We ordered 3 rolls and when they came out they looked so sloppy and messy. They all fell apart when trying to eat them. And the wasabi was so old it wasn't even spicy anymore. The Rainbow roll, which is normally my favorite was a joke. The fish on top was so thin and tasteless. It looked and tasted like it was all frozen. I then ordered a spicy scallop roll and when I took my first bite it tasted rotten and old. I of course sent it back in fear of food poisoning. By this time my husband and I both realized that the waitress and the 'chef' were now maskless.. which begs the question on why we couldn't sit at the bar if they are sooo worried about covid? Bottom line, this place needs a lot of work to be considered a sushi restaurant. We will not be back, and do not recommend to anyone.

    Service was fine but the fried rice was just not very good. Sushi rolls were okay. Definitely no where near "authentic" sushi.

    These folks are running a good business with decent ambiance and food and pretty good service. Just nothing to write home about is all.

    I'm sort of a regular here. Their Miso is the bomb and only $1.50. The sushi is way better than Sushi Zushi and way cheaper.

    Another traditional Christmas lunch at our favorite and nearby hibachi restaurant this past…read moreChristmas Day! The menu seemed to have changed a bit from last year, but looked substantially the same. We were able to call that day to check for availability and were able to walk in and get a seat for 3 at the hibachi table and didn't have to wait too long to get our orders in and eat. We enjoyed the entertainment the chef provided! We sometimes weren't clear who our server was so it took us a bit to flag the right person down to take a drink order. We ordered chicken, shrimp, steak, and salmon dish options. I had a hot sake too. I liked the onion type soup with mushrooms they offered this year as I'm not generally a fan of traditional miso soup. The place was nicely decorated and we enjoyed the annual experience of eating Japanese hibachi on Christmas Day! I'm sure we will be back again next year!

    Pretty weak experience overall. My partner and I made a reservation at 7:30 on a Friday for a…read morehibachi table, and had it confirmed by email. When we arrived at the restaurant, the hostess said that she didn't have the reso on her end; rather than apologizing or making a single effort to fix the issue, she just stared at us. We had to prompt her for clarification and next steps, and had to continue to prompt her through the process of getting us sat. When we finally sat down at a regular table, we waited about 15 minutes without a server coming by. I eventually flagged a server down, and we got our order under way. We requested the manager stop by to tell him about the issue with the reservation and the fact that his hostess needs additional training, and surprise, the manager was also not helpful. He did apologize for our reservation being lost, but blamed it on the system and denied any responsibility for taking care of it - basically just told us that "life is life". He did not offer a discount or any kind of relief for the setbacks or bad service. I wasn't expecting the world or anything, but good hospitality dictates that you do more that basically tell us to just deal with it. For the food: the sushi was pretty gnarly - it looked like somebody was angry at the fish when they were slicing. Most things needed salt. Steak and fried rice was good, but the vegetables were pretty much raw. I can forgive quite a bit when it comes to service, especially on graduation/mother's day weekend. But honestly I'm a little impressed at how little the entire staff cared about their guests.

    SOOOO good! To be honest, I thought this was a location of a place I knew from Pasadena (Tatsunoya)…read morewhich had similar colors on their branding. But so glad we wandered in here based on great Yelp reviews! DELICOUS miso ramen!! We got the miso not (miso broth) and miso hot tonkotsu ramen (perfect amount of spicy). Cute shop. You order at the front and they have open self seating. Nice interior and we didn't wait long to order or get our food. I could definitely see this place being packed and needing to wait for a seat, but food was fantastic. Little parking lot in the back, or park on the street.

    I have been coming to Ramen Tatsu Ya for years, so this visit was honestly disappointing. I ordered…read morethe Me So Hot ramen, which used to be one of my favorites, but it tastes completely different now, and not in a good way. The bowl was loaded with a ton of lettuce or cabbage and piles of green onions, which totally threw off the balance of the dish. Before, the flavor was rich, deep, and spicy in a satisfying way. This time it felt watered down, overly bulky from the vegetables, and the overall taste just did not resemble what I remember at all. It felt like a completely different recipe. On top of that, the restaurant was dead at lunch, which was surprising for this place. The inside layout and seating have also been changed, and the space feels less cozy and more awkward than before. The whole vibe is just different. I hate writing this because this used to be the OG best ramen spot in town, but it has gone really downhill. Between the recipe change, the overload of greens, and the interior changes, it just was not the same experience. With so many new and better options around Austin now, I will not be returning. Sadly.....Check the last two photos for reference - time/date stamp.
