Marukin Steak& Sushi

Inside looked fine. My spouse ordered Thai red curry beef dish, he enjoyed it said it was spicy as requested. My son and I ordered sushi. Our biggest complaint was the waitstaff that was very nice also treated us like we had never seen or eaten sushi before. She asked if we were familiar, we said yes but she continued to describe things like tempura like it was out first time. After a bit I was annoyed and bit offended. I did enjoy the salmon skin roll with salmon on top, my son enjoyed his speciality rolls. I found the eel roll had a bit to much eel sauce, sitting in to pool of it in the serving dish. The hand roll was chewy by the bottom. I did not like the two for $ 8.95 — we choice two salmon rolls, small and sloppy. We also ordered the tempura veggies and shrimp in the beginning. I found it a small portion for the price. Soup was complementary but the tempura pieces in it were soggy. Not sure if I would go back again for $ 77.00 and just o. k food.

Excellent food and service. I had the sashimi app, and the shrimp and chicken hibachi dinner. Everything was amazing. Going back soon.

I’ve heard great reviews about this place and my friend recommended it so I decided to finally go check it out. Big mistake.
The interior is nice when you see the Japanese decorations but then you walk in and look to the right and see the Buddha statues and depending on the holiday it can be decked out in decorations (but a lot of places are like this so whatever, I’m here for the food). I was seated by a sweet lady and attended to well which I would’ve given this review at least 2 stars but the food couldn’t justify it.
I ordered the tempura udon and the dragon roll. I almost always order these two things because I love my udon and my eel. The tempura udon came out first and the tempura shrimp was placed inside. I don’t like that because it gets soggy but it didn’t really make a difference because the batter was caked on. I took a bite and I was terribly disappointed. How is it even possible to mess up tempura shrimp? You roll/​dip it lightly in batter and deep fry it. But they somehow messed it up. The soup was gross and the noodles… my god, horrendous. I didn’t want to waste food so I ate half of it before I had to put down my chopsticks and spoon. I hate wasting food! But it was just bad that I couldn’t eat anymore of it.
At this point, I was hoping my roll would clean my palate. It did not. If anything it made me so sad just looking at it. The roll was was about the same size as a maki roll and the shrimp and eel that topped it looked rubbery. It tasted that way too. I have never had such disappointing eel. The roll wasn’t good. I finished my roll (it was small enough that I just downed it with water), got up, paid, and tipped (even if the food wasn’t good, she was sweet).
I wouldn’t recommend coming here.
