    One of the best sushi places and dining areas. I’ve missed this place so much since it was mostly closed during the pandemic. It is more on the fancy side and the sushi rolls are exceptional. I’ve been here for over 10 times. They are super clean and this is one of the few places where you can comfortably eat sushi even the ones with raw fish. Their appetizers are great too! Especially the stuffed mushrooms. I can’t wait to go back again!

    We celebrated my SIL's 40th in a small private dining room here. It was perfect. They had options for everyone: vegan, vegetarian and pescatarian. Unfortunately, none of the desserts are vegan. Overall, fresh food, tastes great and presentation is fantastic. The Archer was a bit hit. We went back again the following week!

    This is the best place to have sushi in metro Detroit area. Their specialty rolls will leave you wandering that how come you din’t try it till now as that will leave your mouth with such amazing taste burst. I would recommend my personal favorites from their Signature dishes as below: -Crouching Tiger Rolls -Madagascar Rolls -Firecracker Shrimps kudos to their servers and chefs for making our dinner date memorable😊.

    Came for dinner with some friends, had a good time trying out some drinks. There were a couple issues during our visit, but our server handled them quickly. I had the hibachi meal with steak (double fried rice instead of veggies - upcharge). The steak had a really good flavor, but the fried rice was a little underwhelming. The two drinks I tried were really good. One was a soju cocktail and the other was a cherry blossom martini made with sparkling sake. The vanilla bean cheesecake was awesome!

    The food and service were amazing! Our server Lizzie provided us exceptional five star service! Thank you for that! :) She was very personable and provided us great recommendations for dinner. The servings were on the larger side so be prepared to eat a lot. The sushi was fresh and comparable to what I’ve had in Asian countries. The plate presentations were quite impressive. I give credit to the chef for that. I like the decor and the music was pleasant and relaxing. A great place to go on a date or with friends. I will absolutely return and I highly recommend this to others. You won’t be disappointed.

    If you want great sushi and service and a quiet dining experience this is your next stop for dinner. The service was just as amazing. See you again at Maru

    We were looking for an Asian place, and I didn't think we'd find one among all the pizza and pasta and burger places. But this was very good! Sushi rolls are very long, good portion for a filling dinner - I was very hungry. The blueberry lemonade is very yummy. Dessert we got the truffle and it was artfully made. The gyoza appetizer is deep fried. No gluten-free noodles when we were there, but that's fine; if you want gluten-free, many many sushi roll options!!

    What a wonderful experience! Our server (Lauren) was fun and attentive. The food was delicious - the honey garlic shrimp appetizer could've been a meal to itself and I loved the Strawberry basil Lemonade so much that I got a second one. We'll definitely be back!

    Great place to get sushi and a good drink down town. The drink menu has a great array of different types of cocktails with many soju and sake infusions. The sushi selection is just right ans the seasonal sushi is very fresh. There are menu options for those who do not like sushi as well. Everything is reasonably priced for a sushi restaurant. If you are in the Detroit area stop by and treat yourself to a great time. They do

    Our server was Ithzel, she was so sweet and so on top of it! We and one of the first reservations of the night and they gave us the best seat in the house! It was lovely, the mocktails were great. Apps were amazing, but the rolls were INCREDIBLE. Beyond reasonable pricing for the quality of sushi. Will be back in the future

    Me and my buddy came here for some dinner before a football game at FF. Appetizers were fire. The crab cheese Rangoon dip and gyoza. Our sushi was also very delicious.

  • 5/5 Suprabha S. 9 months ago on Google
    The best veg sushi 🤤 Very helpful staff. We had no clue what order and asked them to surprise us. That was the best choice we made. Never had a better fried tofu. We ordered way too much by mistake. We thought 8 rolls means 8 pieces in a plate but instead it turned out to be 8 plates. 😅 Be careful when you order 😂 Their sake was the best.

    We came here on a Saturday night and it was really nice! The servers were lovely and the service was quick, the sake was affordable, as was the meal. We got a shrimp tempura roll and the fried rice and both tasted so yummy. The interior was really beautiful and you could see the kitchen from a few seats. This place could be a five if we ordered more things on the menu for sure. All in all I’d come back here again, and to try their happy hour on the weekdays!

    Maru is our ultimate favorite restaurant for sushi. Its a must try place. Has good ambiance, amazing service and all good vibes only.

    We had a feast of delicious rolls (named after movies) here on a chill Wednesday night. We were a big crowd of 17 and they had space for us. Shareable plates were filling and everyone was satisfied. Great collection of sake and Japanese beer as well as dessert! It was more of Asian Fusion than only Japanese

    Stopped in before a show at the Fox Theater. Shrimp Appetizer was flavorful and very unique. Dinner was amazing and had some leftovers as we saved room for the dark chocolate truffles. Our server Antoinette was very attentive and made our night special.

  • 3/5 Michael M. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is pretty decent. I really don’t have anything negative to say about this place. The sushi actually took a little min before coming out but all the cooked food was out first. The server was pretty good and she recommended the Zen garden which was pretty good. I also got a sake flight which was pretty good. This is a pretty decent solid place. I’ve had worst but I also have had better also.

  • 2/5 Rick R. 2 years ago on Google
    The food was good. The service was not. We waited for 15 min before anyone came to out table. The rest of the meal required alot of waiting also. I told the server, hostess, and manager and they all just said there was alot of big parties. So basically they weren't interested in making it right. Won't be back.

    From the minute we set foot into the restaurant, till we were done with dessert, it was an amazing experience. It was my son’s birthday and everyone went out of their way to make him feel special. Loved the food obviously but most importantly, our hostess - Jacqueline made it memorable. Thank you!

    Delicious flavorful sushi! I’ve had sushi everywhere and Maru is definitely one if the best spots for it

  • 5/5 Thuc Anh N. 2 years ago on Google
    My phone was out of battery right after this photos but the food was on point. It was an extremely busy Saturday night but the service was above and beyond for us. We ordered crabby mushrooms - amazing starters and not overpowering. For rolls we had the Crouching Tiger and Cosmo. Both were fresh, flavorful and on point. Paired it with miso soup and we had a very fulfilled dinner.

  • 4/5 Royal Loren B. 2 years ago on Google
    So far the best sushi restaurant Detroit has. The food, service and location are great! The atmosphere is pretty nice, and could definitely be a great spot for date night. I definitely recommend this restaurant if you want sushi in Detroit. Also, blue mango roll and firecracker shrimp were my favorites.

  • 4/5 Samarth J. 2 years ago on Google
    Sushi’s were really good. Dessert was top notch! Food won’t disappoint you. Only complaint, my reservation was at 7 pm however we didn’t get seated until 7:40.

    MARU! What a new & interesting place to dine. Formerly the IRS Bldg it is now the home of a spacious sushi bar and grill. I ordered the Philly roll and the shrimp crunch roll.....DELICIOUS! Their Moscow Mule was very tasty! I would recommend this place;however the parking may be an issue. There are parking garages nearby. Don't let that detour you from this experience.

  • 5/5 Austyn D. 2 years ago on Google
    On the pricy side but ambience is everything! Great food also!

  • 5/5 Sarah Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Probably one of the best few rolls I’ve had in a very long time. Great interior ambiance and helpful staff. I’ll be back.

  • 5/5 Sadia H. 3 years ago on Google
    Super excited to try this place. The service was great and the sushi was absolutely delicious and fresh. Best two rolls were the cosmo and Madagascar rolls. And definitely get a glass of their refreshing strawberry basil lemonade.

  • 5/5 Rachel K. 3 years ago on Google
    Had an amazing dinner at Maru today! Felt very safe and comfortable with COVID procedures and the service was quick, friendly and knowledgeable as always. Megan was our server and she was a dream—had a great whiskey recommendation and was so quick and attentive! Food was delicious but that goes without saying ;) PS get the crabby mushrooms and thank me later!!

  • 4/5 Tish W. 2 years ago on Google
    The service was awesome and the food was good,especially the tofu. We got the sweet and spicy tofu. The 🍓Strawberry Basil Lemonade was so good I had to buy an extra one to take home with me. It is nice to have different flavors when you go out (aside from the normal drink flavors)
