Went to Makiyaki with my lovely husband. Great service and food. The restaurant wasn't very busy, we unfortunately sat next to the table of very loud and full of gossip girls but it did not spoil our evening, we had a great fun listening to their ridiculous stories! Food was really great! We had edamame beans, gyoza and California roll... More

Not being overly confident ordering Japanese food, as I've only eaten it a few times, I asked for a recommendation. What I got was a very disrespectful grunt and a waitress who wouldn't return to my table. When a waiter took my order the food delivered was very tasty. Wasn't much atmosphere but to be fair it was a Monday... More

Hadn't been here for a few years. High points: sashimi - tuna and salmon good quality; red bean ice cram was delicious; Miso soup was fine; tempura OK Not such high points: my beef dish Bul Go Gi was bitter and I think a bit over-cooked; my wife's salmon teriyaki was a little dry although tasty and a very generous...

I have eaten here at least 4 times in the last 2 months after discovering this restaurant in Wimbledon. Having previously been to the Epsom restaurant and enjoyed my meals I was delighted to find the Wimbledon restaurant and have been completely impressed with the food on every occasion I have been there. Of slight concern is that when I... More

A good friend of mine loves this place and I just had to try it so we went one evening. The sushi was absolutely incredible. Amazing rolls of maki cooked to order. One of the most sensational restaurants I've ever had the privilage of eating in! Definitely going back again!

My family and I went to Maki Yaki before we went to see the Olympics at the Excel. We all like Japanese and fancied trying somewhere new. Unfortunately we were quite disappointed- although they were apologetic, all the food arrived at different times and mains before starters despite marking them as starters or mains. I thought the sushi was nice... More

Been to MakiYaki for a couple of years now, about once every 4-6 weeks or so, usually with friends for somewhere nice and chilled without the stresses of finding somewhere in Central London. Sushi is always fresh and portion sizes are decent, the restaurant itself is nice and relaxing, service is good, staff are helpful and every time I go,... More

Makiyaki has innovative menu for sushi, non-traditional sushi is amazing and reasonable. We were there with another couple. As we were so hungry, we skipped appetizer. That was our mistake. They prepared all sushi dishes at once so we had nothing but drinks for sometime. Overall, we enjoyed!

Been lucky enough to eat here a couple of times when visiting friends in the area. I am no expert, but frequently eat at YoSuchi etc... and this place is in a different league.... Service is excellent and friendly. You will not be disappointed.
