Coming back after four years they still have the same great food. The quality of the service, however, has dropped a little bit compared to our last visit; staff was helpful but not really friendly.

Makoto is my favorite restaurant! The food is always delicious! The only thing I wish they could improve, is the noise level. When it gets crowded, it is pretty loud. I went there for my friend’s birthday and we both loved it and had a wonderful time! I highly recommend it!

This was not my usual experience. Orders were a lot more sporadic than ever before and my order itself was not quite correct. Just felt like the timing of everything was very off but overall it was good and this won’t stop me from continuing to come.
