Nice low key sushi bar and restaurant . Great sushi. Popular place for the locals. Must bring your own wine.

When you rate sushi, the foremostcriteria has to be freshness. The fish was delicious. Miso soup, too. We ordered take out on two occasions, so cannot comment on the service or atmosphere in the restaurant, but service and ease of take out order was fine. Sushi is an ideal Maui meal and Makawao Sushi didn't disappoint.

Poke was excellent. Atmosphere not so much. Service could be better. We were not disappointed in this little find.

I really like this place and eat here on each trip to Maui. It is a bit out of the way, and that is part of the ambiance I like. It is not a high-end LA style sushi bar, it has its own local flair; It is a family run business. You will see a couple trends from the reviews... More

The service from the time we sat at our table until we left was less than friendly. We ordered the Chef choice sashimi which was fresh, nato (fermented soybeans) sushi, and unagi. The cost of the meal was quite expensive for the portion of the dishes, especially the nato sushi was extremely expensive ($6 for six thin nato sushi about... More
