Sushi Maki sits on Bellevue Avenue in Capitol Hill, running a menu built around nigiri by the piece, hand rolls, regular and large maki, and chirashi. The specialty rolls are where the kitchen gets inventive: a Beef & Cheese Roll layers sukiyaki beef, American cheese, and simmered onion; a seared Volcano Roll pairs spicy tuna with American cheese and marinated jalapeño; a Seared Salmon Roll finishes with crab, avocado, and eel sauce. Sides run to gyoza, edamame, seaweed salad, and miso soup.
The restaurant has built a following among Capitol Hill regulars as a neighborhood option known for fresh fish, made-to-order care, and consistent value.
