IYKYK. This place is a gem! Most authentic Japanese ramen experience in the Bay Area. The katsu ramen was incredible, every bite carried forward the intention and care of the chef. Tried a few sushi specials as well. Portions were generous and everything was amazing. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a tasty Japanese meal. They sell out daily so make sure you don’t come too late. The matcha latè reminded me of the cafe we stopped in after landing in Tokyo. It was fun to reminisce on our trip to Japan watching the HD aerial shots they have looping on the TV. Great selection of Japanese snacks as well. They even have a Japanese toilet in the bathroom!

Pretty good food. Ive never been to Japan but it def feels like this is probably what it would feel and taste like if you went to an authentic Japanese restaurant in Japan. The fish was good, taste fresh and not fishy at all. The Ramen tasted like its home made fresh at the beginning of the day. The chausu pork was tender, like tender tender and just melts in your mouth. I also live out of town, I will def come back if I pass by again. Def come try this place and taste for your self.

Who else loves hidden gems as much as I do. IYKYK!
While I was hosting an open house nearby, my lender raved about this spot and of course I had to check it out for myself. She brought me 2 different types of Musubies. So glad I did! Great vibe, great food, and definitely one of those places you can’t help but share with friends. Can’t wait to go back!

I was happily surprised by this place. I had the chirashi bowl and the fish was very fresh and the sushi rice was perfect. My son loved the kid’s miso soup and takoyaki. We also got the shrimp tempura roll. I normally don’t like rolls with sauce on them but it was well balanced. The staff was very friendly. Will definitely be coming back!

We were visiting Monterey and looking for good matcha lattes, which we found! Really good and made with good quality matcha. I’d say above the quality of the usual boba tea shop.
Cute selection of Japanese snacks, friendly customer service. I got a takeaway unagi sushi roll, which was made fresh and so delicious!

Was in the mood to having something warm after work and to my surprise from a quick search of “soup” this cafe, Maido Sushi Cafe, showed up on my radar.
Customer service was great. Counter person was quick and helpful explaing what I wanted from the menu and held on to an order for when I wanted to leave after finishing my initial order.
Wait time was short and presentation of the dish was great to me imo.
I can’t wait to go back and try out the rest of the menu after work.

This is the casual sushi/coffee/tea shop I never knew I needed! I love how casual the atmosphere is here in contrast to most sushi restaurants. The staff is incredibly warm and friendly, the food is incredible, and they’re dog-friendly!

This place is a GEM! From the moment you step in, you feel the warmth and charm of a true family-owned café. The service here is super awesome—everyone is genuinely friendly and makes you feel like part of the family.
They have an amazing selection of coffee, lattes, and teas that are absolute perfection! And it doesn’t stop there—they also offer a variety of grab-and-go items along with made-to-order options. Whether you’re in the mood for sushi, a poke bowl, or something quick, they’ve got it all covered!
The outdoor seating is so comfy, it’s like having your coffee in your own cozy backyard. If you’re looking for a place with fantastic vibes, delicious food and drinks, and a truly welcoming atmosphere, look no further. Highly recommend!

Such a gem of a place. The Sencha Iced Cold Brew Tea is the most delicious green tea I have ever had. Price was great. Atmosphere was great. Clean and bright. Friendly staff.

For a quick and easy bite that’s fresh, delish, and doesn’t break the bank, you simply can not beat Maido Sushi Cafe! This is the little local gem that Marina was needing. We were looking for something fast and healthy tonight and this was IT! Super fresh tasting, really nice staff (even when my 4 year old spilled his water all over the floor and himself), casual and unpretentious. We will definitely be regulars. <3
