This is one of our regular go-to places for sushi. Each bite is so flavorful. You really can't go wrong. For a family of 4, we get a bunch of rolls and if we're feeling flush, we'll get salmon, tuna and eel sushi pieces. Our favorite rolls are: Okinawa Roll Spicy Girl Ken Caryl Mango Lobster Tempura Roll Unagi Shrimp Tempura We've tried their Golden location but the Littleton location is our preference. The service is always great. Hardly ever a wait and the patio is heated when we go in the winter. Ice cold Ichiban and Sapporo beer in the summer. Clean bathrooms. I just wish they had a happy hour discounts for sushi!

Salmon sashimi and the Lover roll. Very tasty and reasonably priced.

Service was fast and attentive. Food was good. Portions were a bit small but then you can try more things.

This is my go-to restaurant for sushi when I am in the area. Their sushi is fresh, the service is great, and the price is right. They have a wide selection of Nigiri , Sashimi, and Rolls. Even if you don't like raw fish, you'll find something you will enjoy. I definitely recommend getting Oysters, Calamari, and/or Gyoza for starters when you come. The workers here are kind and welcoming. They recognized me after my 2nd visit. Give this place a shot. You won't be disappointed.

Stopped in this afternoon ahead of the snow. The sushi/sashimi plate and the fried rice were both excellent. Strongly recommend. Very easy to get to, right off of 470.

Okinawa Sushi has been recommended to me over the years; and we finally stopped to check it out! First, their house Sauvignon Blanc at 2 for $6 was really delicious. I would actually try to buy a bottle! They had so many choices for sushi including a group of low carb options if you want delicious sushi without the rice. The low carb is wrapped in cucumber and is very fresh tasting! We also had the lovers roll, the rainbow roll, and spicy tuna and salmon. Service was excellent. Parking was free, and it was convenient from c-470 and Ken Karyl. I am sure we will stop here again!

Great food, especially the roll with tempura shrimp, avocado, and mango. I forgot the name. Nice people, great sushi chefs. Would go back.

I've only ever been here for take out but it's always good. Sushi is always fresh and prepared quickly. I love the atmosphere of the restaurant. Of course there is a huge fish tank and awesome Japanese decor. Along with the "sushi restaurant music" lol. All in all a great place with great quality food.

Rainbow, Salmon, California, & Scallop roll.

If you've been following my reviews, you know that my wife and I have been on the hunt for a REALLY…read moregood spicy tuna roll. Naturally, when we came across Makizushico, we knew we needed to give it a try. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, and our server was incredibly kind. I will note that this place was BUSY. There was quite a wait, and we were fortunate enough to snag a seat, so I would definitely keep that in mind when planning a visit. We ordered the Spicy Tuna Roll, Tuna Roll, and Rock N Roll. Spicy Tuna Roll (6/10) - While the flavor was delicious and the presentation was beautiful, it still wasn't quite the spicy tuna roll we've been searching for. I enjoy a spicy tuna roll that really carries some heat alongside the flavor, and this one leaned a bit more toward the subtle side for my preference. Rock N Roll (5/10) - The ingredients were fresh, which I appreciated, but I found myself wanting quite a bit more flavor from this roll. It wasn't necessarily bad, just not something that stood out to me. Tuna Roll (8/10) - A good take on a classic tuna roll. The fish was fresh, and the overall execution was good. Nothing overly complicated, but certainly enjoyable. Overall, the quality of the ingredients was evident, and I really enjoyed the atmosphere and service. While we are still on our quest for the perfect spicy tuna roll, I wouldn't mind returning and exploring a few other options.

Really enjoyed my dining experience here! The service was excellent, I'm sorry I forgot our…read moreserver's name but he did a great job of checking in on us frequently while not being overbearing. We tried the shishito peppers starter, hamachi and apple starter, the makizushico specialty roll, the spicy scallop roll and a salmon roll. Out of those I think my favorite was the spicy scallop roll, the scallop tasted fresh and delicious. Also loved the decor and ambiance inside which was Japanese minimalist but also warm and inviting. I will definitely come here again! I do recommend making reservations bc I have tried to come here without one and was turned away bc they were completely booked. However, on the night I dined here (a Saturday night) they did have quite a few empty and available tables.

I ordered the heart attack roll, it came out 20 minutes after everything else to the point we thought it had been forgotten. It is important to note this is advertised as an "appetizer roll". We had already finished everything by the time it came out. It was very bland. Our server forgot 2 separate items we asked for, even after we asked again. We were the only ones in there - how could you forget? I also ordered the vegetarian fried rice, but it had chicken in it. The rice was clearly old. The soy sauce on the table was empty. They were nice, though. Everything was clean. Miso soup was good. Sweet and sour soup was good. But everything else was inedible and abysmal. Surprised by the really good reviews, but overall just terrible. Will not be back. Will not recommend.

Service was good, however, once we were very close to being finished, she came up with our bill. Gave 20% tip. We weren't offered anything else. At the time we didn't want anything else but being offered would have been nice. We stayed ONE hour AFTER paying our check. (Yes, we looked around and saw our table wasn't needed. Plenty of open tables. We were once Servers, we "get it." ) We sat with 5 empty and dirty dishes for almost an hour along with 5 empty cocktail glasses. VERY surprised as our server (and buser) walked by a few times in that hour and NEVER grabbed a dish or offered water refills or perhaps even another drink. We felt like, she got the tip, she's done. Disappointing.

I also ordered the California rolls, and for anyone who wants the "sushi" experience but can't eat raw fish, this version is a great alternative.

Similar to a steak restaurant, my sushi shouldn't Require sauce for its flavor. Price point is great, so that's a win. They have a bright atmosphere. Kids like it here, and they have a couple of TV's that I'm sure are useful on big sports nights. On presentation they get a 5/5, but unless you're coming for a simple cali roll or something, I'd look elsewhere.

I saw, from the reviews, that to come here without a reservation, you want to come right when they open. We saw a wave of people start lining up and congregating as we were parking. Luckily, we made it in the first wave of people seated. We were offered the choice to sit inside/outside. Our server was very attentive and friendly. The drinks and food came out quickly. We ordered the sake and the sake mule. Both were good! We also got 2 pieces of nigiri from Japan and it was heavenly! Other items that piqued our interest were the tuna firecracker roll, a salmon roll, and another tuna roll. Everything tasted delicious, although I was surprised by the asparagus in my rolls. I don't know that that is my favorite! We had a great experience and would love to come back.

All of our dishes were fair, not that great to straight up terrible. The Wagyu beef roll was awful. I'm not even sure it was Wagyu - it was so dry and tasteless. Wagyu should be soft and melt in your mouth flavorful, but nope. I'd dare to say they are passing off thin cuts of meat as Wagy - hope not, but I'd believe it if someone told me that was true. Do not order this roll if you go! We had a few other rolls including the spicy poki roll, which wasn't spicy at all. In total we orders 4 rolls and an app plus 2 drinks for a little over $160 (includes tip) Overall ... Atmosphere is fair, tables are tight. Barely anyone was dressed up, so a bit disappointed in that regard as it felt like a fast casual restaurant. Maybe it is?...not sure what they consider themselves. Service- our server was pleasant. Not fantastic, but nice. They had a lot of tables to manage! Food - disappointing to bad! Drinks - fair - nothing really special.
