Quite good numbers of items and varieties in the AYCE menu. Starting from soups, salads, sushi, maki, fried rice, fried and grilled items, Asian curries and many more. Menu also has Chef's Special items, which are highly recommended. Food quality is good, nicely prepared and presented. Service is good and quick. Nice and moderate ambiance, nothing fancy or flashy. Good place for family dining. Price is at par with most AYCE places and offers right value for money. Parking is convenient in the plaza's private parking lot, in front of the restaurant. read more

Unfortunately Maki Zushi has declined in quality and service over the last few years. Tonight we went for dinner and it will be the last time we ever go there. We ordered from the all-you-can-eat menu... The pad thai was drowning in sauce and tasted like no pad Thai I had ever had before. The Tokyo fries didn't come topped with the normal condiments of Tokyo fries, they were just plain fries. The edamame were rotten. The steamed pork balls were inedible. The squid dish that came in a soy type sauce was also not worth eating. Just so lackluster overall. And the service was terrible. For one we couldn't understand the server and she was borderline hostile. Won't be back. read more

Came to try their lunch roll special, which included 3 rolls of your choice plus a soft drink. I ordered spicy salmon, spicy tuna, spicy crab, yam, salmon roll and tempura roll. Overall the taste was good. Some rolls were on the larger side. But very filling for lunch. The spicy rolls were not "spicy" at all. Also not a lot of panko filler inside which some places add in. Very fresh and tasty. read more

It is our office gathering sushi go to place in Stoufville on weekday lunch time. The food is ok with plenty of choices for lunch time. Except sashimi and special rolls, they have almost everything from sushi, rolls, hand rolls to grilled hot food, from various salad, soup choices to dessert. They have even curry rice, fried udon and rice. Not much to complain, but if the waitresses can be more attentive, putting down the dishes more gently with more courtesy, it would be perfect read more

Food was amazing, nothing bad to say there. The service however is a different story, workers seemed very hostile towards us, staring and giving looks. Made our experience less enjoyable. If the service does not improve we will be taking our business elsewhere. read more

Stopped by here for a quick sushi lunch- they have a la carte and ayce options I was in a rush so didnt want to waste $18 for ayce so opted for the lunch combo I order the spicy salmon roll, Philadelphia roll, Sandy honey roll, which has mayo, tempura and avocado and I think some other deliciousness... Each roll game with 6 pieces and it also came with a drink, Coke Pepsi or Sprite, but curiously do not include green tea and you couldn't substitute tea for the pop Overall, the sushi tastes fresh, it was pretty good and reasonably priced. Service was excellent and very fast. You order from a iPad looking device, so human interactions is minimized, which on some days is a good thing The whole thing cost me $13.95 plus tax, which is reasonable for lunch. I'll definitely come back quick Sushi lunch in the future! read more

Maki Zushi - Sushi combo - spicy salmon, Philadelphia roll and sunny roll - Japanese Near Me - Stouffville, Ontario

So this place offers both set meals and AYCE.... prices are decent for both but their method of operations + quality of the food... well let's just say, definitely mediocre at best. Service was slow consistently throughout our meal. The restaurant uses IPads which is pretty common nowadays for AYCE, but my group ordered the set lunches. It took a while for them to come over to our table to even process the order, before we got our food. The lunch/dinner bento boxes offer a variety of items such as the main source of protein, tempura, spring rolls, salad, and the rice. The eel tasted decent, but the chicken teriyaki was pretty dry. Sushi rolls were okay, the rice kind of falling a part, and the fish on the nigiri was also okay. Not the freshest, but not the worst I've tasted either. Honestly, my favourite items were the spring rolls and the tempura (although they kind of overdid the batter for the shrimp in particular). Overall, the layout of the restaurant is pretty cute. A lot of the customers there at the time I went were students (around 1 pm). I don't really see any other AYCE sushi restaurants around in this area, so I guess if you're really craving the food, you don't have many other options. read more

Great food, great service and very clean. The layout of the restaurant can accommodate larger groups.

The food service was excellent and I loved the sushi! Yesterday I went to Maki Zushi with my mom and the seats/ambiance was excellent quality! I definitely would recommend this place of you love sushi. read more

This is the go-to sushi spot in Stouffville. The staff are friendly and the interior is modern and clean. For AYCE, use the tablets to pick and order your food. Want 1? Want 7? Order the amount that you want! This AYCE is comparable to the places in Markham, certain items are actually better. If you want to try a new AYCE joint, go thr Maki. The Sashimi is quite fresh, choose from thr standard Salmon or I would recommend you go after the sweet shrimps (my fave), or squid which is also good. Teppanyaki items are all good, I particularly like that you can order just a couple of each item as most items comes with 2 or 3 per order, so you can try more items! They also come in small little plates, which are quite cute. Tempura is pretty standard, no complaints. Hand rolls are hit or miss for me. I like the seaweed a bit crunchy so sometimes they get it right. Makis are my least favourite. Their rice isn't the best and they don't roll them very well. Udon are standard, but I do like how they come a small bowls so you don't have to be afriad that you will fill up on noodles. Apps are standard. I was plesantly surprised with the cheese wontons. You can give those a try. They are quite heavy though. Desserts are another weak spot at this AYCE. I will only order the Matcha Ice Cream and occasionally the frozen grapes. The matcha is actually decent, other things are not that great. All in all, this is my go-to because its so close and its comparable to those in Markham. read more

Why am I eating Sushi in Stouffville?? I think I really need professional help with my sushi eating cravings as I should have totally skip Maki Zushi and went to have Fish and Chips next door! I should have turned around when the waitress ask if I am doing AYCE ($13.99) or from the menu... I don't really do AYCE so regular it is. I frantically searched for their lunch specials that was hidden somewhere... Sushi Lunch Special $7.95 - Shari Rice? What Shari Rice? It is like a normal under cooked rice ball... really hard, really chewy without any flavours - fish was not fresh aside from the two thinly sliced salomon - Lukewarm Miso Soup was flavoured with mega MSG... I am still thirsty 4 hours after drinking that - Salad was drowned in Thousand Island dressing...... poor salad... The deco though is nice and bright and I do like how the sunlight was filtering through from the sky light above... The green colour theme is nicely done helped calm me down from yelling these are not SUSHI!! Free Wifi Hot Spot. is a nice touch. read more

A decent AYCE sushi spot in Stouffville. Came here on a Thursday night and it was absolutely packed. We didn't have a reservation and ended up waiting about 15 minutes for a table (which wasn't bad at all). Orders are done on an iPad which is nice. Ambiance is good. Spacious, decor is pleasant, and generally a pleasant atmosphere. It was very loud though, probably because it was so busy. Service was quite slow, but the servers kept checking in to see which orders we were missing, which I appreciated. Most of the food tastes good, and the presentation is very nice. The cut on the salmon sashimi was very thick though, and I think the quality of the fish wasn't that great that day. They have a good variety of desserts, and the beauty of AYCE means you can try all of them! It's a bit expensive, but there aren't many other sushi options in Stouffville, so it makes sense. Would probably return again. read more

We once had their poke bowls and they had a very thin layer of toppings at the top but like mostly rice so it was like literally 2 bites of actual poke. Can't say l liked the quality of the fish either. The presentation was really nice so it was a bit disappointing. We ended up getting other takeout because it was so disappointing. read more

Not too bad in terms of service and food. They have an AYCE by ordering with their provided tablets. However, it is very busy on weekends. Their main entrance waiting area is small that you'll get that cramped feeling. Overall the entire restaurant isn't that big. I still prefer the competition Senjyu just further east on the north side of Main Street. read more

Came here with a group of 3, and decided to try their AYCE. The restaurant itself is quite spacious, bright and modern. It was quite a busy night on a Saturday, we waited for maybe 20mins or so for a table. We were seated at a triangular table that was quite large for 3 but it was great size for our massive orders ;P They use ipads as order menus, and each table has a slot on the side of the table to place the iPad after use. Our favourite items on the list was their torched sushi. It was a pretty presentation and the flavour of each was great. I also liked their fried chicken wings. Really crispy exterior and moist interior. Overall the food and service was great. Would come back to try it again. read more

I may not call it authentic, but it's very good! My favorite is salmon delight, seafood soup and bbq ribs :)

I would probably only choose to eat here if i didn't have other options for Japanese/Chinese food. At lunch buffet most of the foods are with rice or fried. Many items seem prepared in advance so not fresh - the salmon salad had frozen or very chilled salmon on a bed of veg. The sesame chicken seemed double fried and can barely find any chicken inside. The spicy salmon roll wasn't spicy and seemed like a paste of miscellaneous salmon inside. The udon had very wilted vegetables. Beef teriyaki was a very thin slice of beef sliced up. Ice cream had a frozen layer on top. The fried banana I liked - seemed like the freshest thing that I ordered. The tempura was decent with a variety of vegetables and shrimp. The fried shrimp was mostly batter. We paid $18.99 for adults and $12.99 for age 5+ on a Friday for lunch. Pretty pricey. Was too busy watching kids to take photos of mediocre food. read more

Not the first time visit maki sushi, but I am sure will be the last! Not too many choice in a small town especially Asian cuisine. Unpleasant experience tonight The server took away my bento box b4 I'm done. It's ok since the food was worst than last time. Charging after tax 15% service charge which I didn't noticed!! Pay additional tips by mistake! Hope they can do better for the town! read more

Maki zushi is finally open for patio seating unlike the first reopening when it had no patio seating the restaurant is all you can eat they bring you the food so so the ban on buffets does not apply they make you pay at the beginning now but considering that it is easy to dine and dash that's perfectly fine by me the service is fast and the servers are friendly they make their own Soy sauce that is a must try the food tastes great and it's fast out of the kitchen you order on iPads so you don't need to wait for a server although the iPads are not that bright outside overall I highly recommend maki zushi of your in town read more

Pretty average (but consistent) AYCE restaurant every time I've been there. The food is average for an AYCE place and the service is pretty average. The sushi fish wasn't the freshest which is typical for AYCE but wasn't bad by any means. Good selection of food but nothing really stood out to me. The service is never quick but never horribly slow either. Further, the servers always seem very lifeless like it's just about getting through another day opposed to really caring for the customer. Functional service, just not particularly good. The one thing worth mentioning is the fact that the restaurant and presentation of the food is fantastic. My sushi trays always come out looking like something from a brochure. Just a little disappointing that everything else doesn't stand out in the same way. The location is super convenient for me (since I live in Stouffville) but it's a little pricey. Most times I'd rather drive to Markham to get better food for less. read more

Not the best sushi I have had but decent enough There are no sushi places on Stouffville so getting sushi is a bit of a venture to where I live Have had their sushi only in take out Haven't had the dine-in experience yet From what I have tasted it does the job but not comparable to other places like Ten-Ichi or Matsuda read more

Great service and food. For a all you can eat this restaurant definitely shines over the others. Good quality food that I would definitely eat again I may not be a sushi expert but my girlfriend said the sushi was excellent. For me I had many of the meats and I enjoyed almost all of them. The service was very friendly and seemed to put in a lot of effort to make sure everything is good. The food didn't come immediately but did not take forever. The restaurant was clean and very modern, overall I recommend this restaurant for anyone that likes a good all you can eat and anyone that loves sushi read more

Maki Zushi - Discoloured sushi - Japanese Near Me - Stouffville, Ontario

$130 for a family of 4 FYI - their kids age range stops at 9 so if your kid(s) are older, expect to pay adult price ($27.99 on a weekend) for dinner You can get AYCE or a la carte AYCE - ordering is done on a ipad which is the best - food comes relatively quickly - the rolls look fantastic but are surprisingly bland - kalbi is really good - katsu was good enough to warrant a second order - curry and rice was flavourful, coconut curry sauce, tender chicken pieces - tempura was light and crispy - popcorn chicken was okay, the batter didn't have a lot of taste The decor is nice and bright, clean. I gave them a 2 because I've had better in terms of taste and variety for a lot less. read more

It's a good AYCE sushi place. The food and customer service is also pretty good. The prices are a bit expensive during dinner especially on weekends (expect to pay around $30 per person). Also, I wish they had more of a variety for their dessert menu. They only add 1-2 extra things between the lunch and dinner dessert menus. read more

Very very disappointed. Do not believe the picture on the menu due to the fact you will get a completely different dish. So much difference from the actual food. The only saving grace for me and the only reason I got full from my dinner was the salmon at lease that was ok. Definitely won't be coming back anytime soon read more

Food was not the best and staff is extremely rude...We were a big group more than 22 people and on top of paying around $160-$190 for each family, they insisted on charging a baby (just turned 2 last month!) We explained to them that baby didn't eat, just tasted the rice and refused to eat, the lady was rude and said we saw her! After much talking we told them we'll write a review and she said yes go write it now! They claimed the manager said no and when we asked to see him, she said he's not here! The issue is definitely not the money but the way they deal with the customer!! Never again there. read more

Have been here quite a few times for takeout, but this was our first time actually dining in. Came in on a Sunday early afternoon and were seated right away. AYCE $15 for adults and $8 for kids. I usually cringe at AYCE since I never eat enough to get my money's worth, but thought hey - why not.. The food - some ok, some meh. The maki rolls were chewy and not very uniformly round (kinda of lumpy shaped). The spring rolls were good but tiny, and they stole away the plum sauce before we were done with it. Edamame good, teriyaki chicken good. Very surprising that certain rolls weren't available at lunch: most other places would offer all their maki (eg. soft shelled crab) at lunch and maybe just withhold the sashimi, but here only the plain rolls (eg. California rolls) were available in the lunch menu. For $15 I'd expect more.. The service - not much good to say here. They forgot items we ordered, like my miso soup, even though they were checked off on an order sheet. The initial items we ordered came relatively quickly but to order more we had to flag down staff (they not once came by to check how things were, though were quick to take away plates we weren't necessarily done with) to order again, and that subsequent order took forever. And when it came to dessert, the ice cream came after about 10 minutes but the fried banana we ordered along with it, which we thought they'd forgotten, was delivered *after* we'd paid and were already putting on our coats. It felt like they were understaffed both in the kitchen and in the dining room - which shouldn't be the case for an establishment open for this long, which should have a feel for how busy they will be on any given day. Overall, it was meh.. Not terrible, but most places I've been to have been better. Their takeout (also slightly pricey, but then again there's not much competition in Stouffville) is decent since you avoid their service issues, but for sit-down, I will probably opt to go to Markham next time.. read more

I've probably been spoiled with really good sushi, coming from Toronto and having globe trotted in Japan and coasted along the West Coast. Putting that aside, I went into Maki with absolutely no expectations. I've tried both AYCE lunch and dinner. The downside to lunch is that there is no sashimi and there's less variety in general but obviously it's a couple dollars cheaper. Dinner, you do have sashimi as well are more variety on cooked dishes as well. I'd almost like to say that their cooked variety is WAY better than their sushi and sashimi. Their sushi and sashimi are a huge disappointment and their fish is essentially tasteless. One one occasion, their nigiri was filled with rice that had way too much rice vinegar. Their cooked dishes are pretty good but would I go to an AYCE just for that? Probably not. Overall, I wasn't entirely impressed by this place but I probably would come back if there was a world abomination on sushi and this was the only place left. read more

Beautiful, clean restaurant with free wifi. The service was fast and efficient. Came here for dinner one Friday night and it was pretty busy--85% of the tables were occupied. For an AYCE restaurant, every item we ordered arrived and was not missed. The sashimi was fresh and nicely sliced (some restaurants are either too thick or thin). The bonus, they had Ika sashimi (squid) and very few AYCE has that. The presentation was excellant. Ordered a few pieces of the Octopus and Unagi sushi and it came with big pieces of meat over small rounds of rice. Very delicious! The maki were nothing too special, especially the Spicy Tuna Roll, that practically had no tuna in it, just tempura bits--this is where it lost the 2 stars). The hot food was overall good, enjoyed the grilled kalbi and grilled squid a lot. It's pretty expensive compared to other AYCE ($25 weekend dinner, if I remember correctly). read more

I tried this sushi place for the first time last night for dinner. Loved it. Their coconut shrimp and spicy salmon rolls are my favourites. Food is very fresh and reasonably priced. $30 for dinner. Love the iPad concept. read more

Nice decor and free wifi. 'Average' loud at dinner time. AYCE sushi place. The wait staff are polite but service is slow. Some orders that were placed did not arrive at the table. Food... Over half of the maki ordered were falling apart on the plate. I've seen better rolling technique from my nephew. Ingredient ratios in the rolls are out of whack. There's more tempura bits than mango in the sweet mango roll. The salmon sashimi looked really sad on the plate; all mangled and small. Tempura items are not crispy enough and drenched in oil; likely due to the oil not being hot enough. You can't go wrong with the green tea ice cream at the end. read more

I have been to this Restaurant over 10 times. They may hate me here because I overeat and am very gluttonous (had to google that one) when it comes to AYCE Japanese cuisine. I like that feeling of being so full that I don't have that craving for atleast another month. Have had most on the menu. I have not had a bad dish here. My go to dishes are salmon sashimi, salmon sushi pizza, spicy salmon sushi, baby mushroom beef rolls and beef ribs. They have a lot of unique takes on different sushi combos, so you picky sushi eaters out there are bound to find something. For those that dislike the raw or aren't the openminded type, there are plenty of cooked food here for you ie. chicken terriyaki, beef terriyaki, noodles, rice, salad etc. As of late, the chefs have made fancy designs on their plates. Service is okay. Prices are pretty standard for the ayce. The decor/setting is probably one of the best you can get from an ayce place. I haven't tried the non ayce here, because I like the ayce and am a gluttonous pig! Will keep coming here until there's another challenger in York Region. I have tried many of the one's in Markham ala Sushi on 7 (terrible service, okay food), Yang's Kitchen (dirty chefs) and Fushimi's (no complaint's - but food flavoring is not up to Maki Zushi's). Do message me if you think there's better ayce in York Region, because I would be surprised. read more

Good deal for all you can eat. I would consider this more Western / Japanese fusion sushi.

"Not nearly as bad as the reviews sad, actually fairly good." I read a lot of negative reviews about this place. I'll admit, especially since they're in my backyard and the fact that they charge a premium price ($25 or more for an AYCE dinner). Having been to many all you can eat sushi places in Toronto, I had never tried this place because I've been burned a lot of times at bad places and paying too much. I just want to say, this wasn't bad. Actually quite good. Atmosphere: Very nice, modern, and they use ipads for ordering which is very efficient. The atmosphere actually makes you forget you're in Stouffville and makes it feel like one of the other more dense places like Woodbridge, Markham, maybe North York. Staff: Unlike many experience, the staff was VERY friendly, and seem to have gotten the hint about customer service and were over multiple times to refill water, tea, and check on general satisfaction with food and service so far. Food: Good selection. Not the largest I've seen, but with the ipad ordering system, its very easy and almost standard like all places. Having said that, I'd order some of the chefs special rolls, they were all put together well. The beef dishes were all good and sashimi tasted very fresh. Stay away from the coconut shrimp, such a gooey texture, and doesn't taste like that deep friend texture you're probably expecting. Price Again it was about $25 + taxes for an AYCE adult dinner. but unlike most places, they didn't include a 10% service charge and that was kind of them. Give this place a chance. If you're looking for sushi in an AYCE environment, this is a place you can consider if you're in the area without risk. Visited August 2015 read more

Little options compared to other sushi places for lunch. Service was good but food was nothing special.

Went on Sunday lunch for my son's birthday -- we usually go to another place, but they were closed for a private party so we looked this place up in Yelp and headed over. We arrived at 1:50 and were not seated until 2 pm. there were 7 of us, but there were plenty of seats available -- just no one manning the lobby. They asked if we had been there before - we said no -- and they handed us an Ipad and left. They did not explain how to use the menu system at all, although we are tech savvy people and figured it out. They have a great selection of appetizers for lunch - but the ones we ordered ( can't really remember them ) didn't make it to our table --- only the mains did. For the sushi selections at lunch, it seemed like just a number of variations on shrimp, salmon and tuna. no real selection. read more
