U'Maki Sushi Burrito

Food is pretty good, only problem is the attitude when i asked for a plastic bag nicely to hold my 2 big paper bags and drinks. Then i got home with my 2 bowls of food for my wife and I, only to realize that they didnt put in any chop sticks and only put in 1 little packet of soy sauce. I didnt give this place 1 star only because the food is ok.

Used to come here all the time. Loved it. Very affordable and they would load up the bowl. This time they are under new management. It’s about 30% more in price and they barely put any food in the bowl. I had to ask for more rice. And even my tuna and salmon he didn’t even put the full scoop. He put some back. Never seen that before. Then I kept having to ask for more of the toppings cuz they were barely putting any. Then at the end they rang me up for $2 for literally like 10 grains of rice he put extra without telling me or no sign of extra charge for more rice. Honestly super disappointed. This is a picture of my bowl with “extra rice” and even extra toppings. Barely filled. It used to be jammed packed with food they could hardly close it. Sucks because this used to be my go to for Poke in the area. This was only a 2 scoop of protein bowl and it was $20 lol

Absolutely livid I have been coming here since they opened I was the 8th original customer here. Customer service here used to be gray wonderful you actually got what you ordered and it was worth what you paid however today I placed an online order and I got here to get it and just throws the bag at me paid almost $30 for a 3 protein bowl. She's knew she left out half of it and chose not to tell me. I had to drive 30 minutes back.. so I had to waste an hour of my drive back to Austin to come and get my food corrected. And saying oh well we now charge extra for that well that's fine but take it out of her tip because the app I mean the website should have charged it correctly that's not my fault y'all have the receipt do it and she should have told me that employee that made it should have told me since when do you only put not even a toddler handful of rice in here like there's not even a quarter cup of rice. This is the absolute worst I have ever seen

Staff was really friendly. I love the ambience! They even have little Asian items you can purchase. Even Asian snacks. Food was amazing. Would recommend to people :) definitely would be returning

First time trying this place. The burrito and bowl were great. I had the fat boy, and will definitely get it again. My wife had the deep diver and it was also good. The fries were awesome, great flavor. The employees were very nice. I look forward to going back!

I can only speak on the food since I order via door dash. This place has the most fresh fish I’ve tasted. I’ve tried SEVERAL poke places, missing the spots in Los Angeles terribly and ALL except this place have disappointed. I’ve had this place about 8-9 times now and it’s slapped EVERY time(consistently delicious). The pickled toppings are to DIEEE, and you don’t see Tamago offered at a ton of places. So delightful. My suggestion/feedback would be that I would LOVE to see unagi offered as a protein.

U’’Maki Sushi Burrito is a Perfect Fusion of Sushi and Burrito! I recently had the chance to try their sushi burrito under new management, and it was a delightful experience! I heard the owner said he import fresh fish from Japan. The combination of fresh sushi ingredients and the convenience of a handheld burrito format was both innovative and satisfying. The flavors were vibrant and well-balanced. The sushi rice was perfect, the fish tasted fresh, and the variety of toppings added a wonderful crunch and complexity. I especially loved their fatboy sushi burrito. The portion size was generous, making it an excellent value for the price. It’s a perfect option for those who love sushi but want something more filling and portable. The presentation was beautiful, the burrito was neatly wrapped, and every bite was consistent in flavor. I’m big on milk tea, the new management owner recommended their freshly brewed milk tea. I was instantly in love with it, not crazy sweet and heavier on the tea taste. Just the way how milk tea supposed to be. Overall, the sushi burrito is a fun twist on traditional sushi, and I highly recommend it for sushi lovers looking for something new and exciting!

I haven't been in a while, and was excited to take my brother. We shared 2 burritos. The seaweed on both of our burritos had a weird consistency, and the seaweed on his tasted terrible. The burritos were smaller than the last time I had one, and the overall quality and taste were not worth trying again. The service was fine, not really unfriendly or friendly. Just the normal process of making our order and checking out. There was an alarm of some sort beeping by the front door the whole time, which was annoying. For 2 small burritos and 2 drinks (no sides or extras), it was $40. It is a little too pricy for the size and quality.

Food: SOO GOOD. super filling and variety of options (for both veggies and proteins). if you don't eat a lot, one roll is definitely shareable Service: person serving us was nice but kinda shy Ambience: inside along w the outside location was nice so we walked around afterwards Fatboy: my personal favorite. LOTS of protein Skinny Girl: lighter and also super good

Under new management. Still good but not the same. Order 3 fat boys bowls and was not full or filling. Portions are getting smaller and smaller. I remember when my bowls were full and I'd eat half of the fat boy and it would make me full. I used to save the other half for later. Now these bowls aren't even filling for $18 each and no I don't eat more. I still eat the same. At least if you want to give the filling feeling to your customers, give more rice. My toppings portion was perfect. I just didn't have enough rice. I got 2 of my bowl with brown rice and it was cold and hard. Needs to be cooked a little longer. My husband got the white rice and his was okay. Just small portion. The inside was cool and nice. Had tons of Japanese snacks and drinks.

U-Maki has so much options to choose from and it was delicious. The service when I came was nice, they were being sweet and patience with when i'm ordering. It's a good place to dine in and eat! I recommend.

This place used to be so good in portions and now it's gone, they charge extra for toppings when you ask for a little more (when they have given you so little) The service can sometimes be okay or bad nothing crazy inviting it always feels awkward as you order.

The place was very nice and the employees were kind and helpful. The seats were clean and I liked the overall vibe of the place. The food was delicious, would definitely come back/recommend this place !

I ordered from this place at least once a month during the school year. The food is always fresh and delicious! I love the bowls!

The first question I always ask myself before going into a place like this is, "Will the novelty be worth it?" I've gone into plenty fusion restaurants where a quirky combination seems like it would be a good idea only to be disappointed. U-Maki overcame this fear of mine and provided a delicious sushi "burrito" which is basically just a huge roll. If you are expecting a corn or flour tortilla-filled burrito with sushi ingredients, you'll be disappointed. But that is the only real disappointment you will experience because the food is fresh, it's prepared quickly, and it's delicious. You order your "Burrito" like you order one at the build-it-yourself burrito places like Freebird or Chipotle, except here, the choices are all sushi-based. The fish was fresh, the additional ingredients were fresh and delicious, and everything appeared to be handled properly. You watch them as they make your sushi burrito, and you can help direct additional ingredients as you see fit. Like the other burrito places, the more protein you put into your burrito, the more expensive it is. There are options for having your sushi burrito prepared like a huge roll, like a poke bowl, or as a salad (which are nice options, in my opinion). They do have traditional sushi restaurant sides available like gyoza and miso soup and they can also make traditional rolls, although I didn't try the rolls. The gyoza we had was fried but delicious. The ambiance is more of like a Subway or Chipotle. That's not to say it's bad; it's just not what one normally experiences with a sushi restaurant. As for service, it was quick and competent; nothing to marvel about, but also, efficient and friendly. The biggest question I answer after an experience with a new establishment is, "Would I go back?" The answer to this question for me is, "Yes." Is it a place I will put on my regular rotation of establishments? Maybe not, but it will definitely fill a niche for when I want a huge roll made quickly with ingredients I select myself.

This is a neat place to your tastebuds . There are some many different ways you can make your meal. My favorite is the U-MAKI fries and a bowl. The combinations are endless. So I recommend exploring a little. You will find something the add highlights to your tastebuds.

Place was nice the staff were clean and the store was clean and sanitary, but pricey but definitely worth the delicious wait!

Fantastic restaurant under new management, clean and delicious, price reasonable. Still wanna try something new from here, love it Services are friendly~

Went back again last Thursday and they have gotten worse. Looks like new owners. Food portions have actually gotten smaller and the lettuce was as brown as the rice. Wont be back again

The food here is very delicious. In town visiting and wanted to check out what my relative has been raving about. Had a grilled chicken salad and a Salmon and Spicy Tuna Burrito. Met Hilda and Cindy who is the Manager and they are really pleasant and nice. You gotta try U'maki for yourself.

We got two bowls 2 proteins, kids bowl and miso soup for $35. The kids bowl was very pitiful looking. With only one tiny half a shrimp and had to pay .50 cents extra for the two small slices of avocado. Very disappointed in that. Where we normally go for a poke bowl the miso soup is complimentary, here it wasn't and of course the portions where underwhelming. Needless to say I probably won't come back.

Place was so bad I made a yelp account. Food is mediocre and overpriced for the amount of food you get. You are much better off going to any other place like poke yana and poke hut! This place has no life to it and the workers look like they don't wanna be there. I think the owners should work on making this place feel more passionate! No wonder this place is so empty.

My boyfriend and I were made sick by this place! We ordered a high maintenance tea and there was SOAP/CLEANER IN OUR DRINK! We each took a big sip and instantly we knew something was wrong.. The employees are kinda rude - not sure if they are just high school kids with little social skills but they just stared at us until we ordered - very awkward. I believe if they spent less time on their phone and more time paying attention to their job - we wouldn't have had soap in our drink. I tried to be really nice about the whole soap in my drink situation but I'm not sure they believed me. Be careful here!

I came to this place because I was really craving poke and the place that I usually go to was closed so I decided to try this place for the first time. I came in and was immediately taken care of, he even made recommendations. The service was good. However when I sat down and tried my food I was a little disappointed by the lack of flavor in my maki bowl. I got a two protein bowl (spicy tuna and spicy salmon) but the bowl was very bland. I kept adding soy sauce cause there was no flavor!!!! Service is good but food was not. I do not recommend. I immediately regretted it and wished I would've ate next door

Fat Boy used to be twice the size look I like this place but I don't want to pay more for less. I don't mind paying more for a good portion. I feel lately kinda not worth it

I don't know what happened to this place. The pricing has gone up but the quality down. I don't remember the burritos being so small. The place/staff isn't as friendly anymore. The tables felt dirty inside. I ordered a sushi burrito with shrimp tempura and the shrimp were so small I could barely taste them. They don't give you very much of anything. So sad to see this place go down in quality.

Wow, this place is really great, the ingredients are fresh and delicious, the price is reasonable, I will come back again

I was in Houston over the Christmas holidays, and I stopped here for a bite. We ordered the Chicken Katsu and the Southern Flair and both were fantastic I have one complaint... Make them bigger for the price

Sweet people and the food is good, but for just a sushi burrito it's $20. But in all fairness the portion size is enough for 2 meals.

I have no idea how I came across this place but I was glad I did. This was an interesting creation but I was down for it. I was so satisfied! Definitely a huge portion too. I recommend you checking it out for yourself!

Go on a Tuesday, get two dollars off! Now, we're in Houston people so it's not going to be a poke bowl place like a coastal destination but it sure does the trick and won't make you sea sick! :D Plus, it's fun to choose and make your own bowl or burrito with fresh ingredients and flavorful sauces.

I love this restaurant. I may not be able to drive to get it often but it is am amazing treat when I get it. I tend to spend here alot less than I would getting sushi rolls. My rare treat is to get a huge 7 protien bowl that is mainly regular and spicy salmon and tuna bc I predominantly like the raw fish and get it when I know my anemia is acting up and my iron is low. Other wise it is hard to justify a $30 sushi bowl. They used to have "seasonal" protien options like scallops, red fish, etc but they never seem to have any of them anymore. Some workers are better about making a quality product with good portion and amount of the toppings and they seem to have a high turn over rate of employees so it can be hard when others barely put any fish in their scoops or barely any toppings especially when the tuna price went up and EACH SCOOP cost an extra $4 dollars but over all an amazing place to eat.

Definitely worth giving this spot a try. It's a build-your-own sushi burrito restaurant (think Chipotle or Subway but with sushi). The burrito I concocted consisted of tuna, salmon, cucumbers, avocado and soy sauce. I don't care for wasabi and spicy flavors so I was able to get it exactly what I wanted. I also opted to get a cup of miso soup as well (meal total $12). This restaurant has a great concept and it's sooo delicious

Loving this twist to sushi with stuffing all the fresh ingredients into a seaweed burrito. As a picky eater (especially when it comes to sushi), making my own was the best option. Inside you'll see shrimp tempura, krab salad, edamame, carrots & more

Really disappointed about what it has become. I have been going to U-Maki for years now. I always LOVED the food and the prices, but WHAT HAS HAPPENED? The last time I ordered here was about a month ago and omg, the PRICES! I used to get the fat boy and boy did I feel FAT afterwards. I remember only eating half and then keeping the other half for a second meal. I was shocked that the fat boys were now $17 and the amount was measly. It was less than half of what it used to be. I know that inflation & shrinkflation is ubiquitous, but this is really outrageous. I cannot afford to eat here, nor do I want to anymore. For that amount of money, I can just stay home and make my own sushi. Final verdict: No, I will not be going here again until something changes. I would not recommend this place to a friend either.

The best in the city! The service is always good and my go to is the fat boy. There is an up charge for the tuna but I just get double salmon which is fine with me. I've gotten it in burrito and bowl form and it never disappoints. I love how consistent it is every time I come here. I just wish they had more locations closer to the loop. Do yourself a favor and sign up with your phone number and get rewarded. They also have a special on Tuesdays to save $2. I will continue to come here because the value is great for the quality.

Decided to visit the place for the first time today and got the Wild Cajun Burrito which was really good. The food tasted fresh and the burrito filled me up. The only change I would make next time is not have cucumber but that is just me.

I ordered two fat boy burritos and two bowls. When they are finally delivered and I open My order. I have someone else's burrito, and both of my bowls aren't in there.. waited an hour for the food just for half of it to be missing .

The sushi burrito was okay, some flavors were lacking, the size was a good size but the price was not great. Would rather go to a sushi spot and do all you can eat

Sushi and burritos combined in one? Count me in! I throughly enjoyed my experience here, and definitely will be returning. I just wish there was another location closer to me so I didn't have to drive to Spring. I got the Fat Boy. It was amazing. It contained salmon, tuna, and a bunch of delicious sauces that complimented the sushi burrito well. I honestly still prefer just regular sushi, BUT trying this place is a must!!

My first time getting a sushi burrito!! I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was such a good experience with great food. The service is awesome. They were extremely helpful at answering our questions. They did a great job in following COVID regulations and making sure everything was sanitized etc. The food is really good here!! We ordered two Fat Boys (one burrito, one bowl), and I also customized a burrito. Everything was so good and I feel like the portions are a good size for a good price too. I went on a Tuesday, and to be pleasant surprise they have a $2 Tuesdays deal, where you get $2 off your burrito etc. Highly recommend!

Okay, let's get into it! The maki burritos were pretty good. We tried the southern flare and a custom maki burritos. The southern flare maki burrito had: tempura shrimp, fried crawfish, avocado, cream cheese, crunchy tempura flakes, and unagi sauce. Our custom maki burritos had: tempura shrimp, spicy mayo, red cabbage, seaweed. I tried both, but the southern flare was my favorite. I just should have gotten spicy mayo on the side and it would have been perfect. The price point was nice cheaper than my other go to location, but they also dont have as many options to choose from. All and all I would try this place again.

U-Maki brings the spirit of choose-your-own adventure stories to the world of sushi. Starting with a base (roll, bowl, or salad), customers are invited to choose everything from their proteins, vegetables, sauces, and other edible accoutrements such as furikake and sesame seeds. The 'burrito' part of the sushi refers more to the way the rolls are cut - halfway instead of traditional bite-sized pieces. I opted for a roll with shrimp tempura and crab (you can choose up to 3, with an adjusted price for each addition) and while I was a little disappointed that the tempura was precooked and lukewarm, it made the whole assembly line move quickly so that my roll took more than five minutes from start to finish. Making it even quicker is a clever machine that rolls out a perfectly uniform layer of sushi rice. Nearly all of the toppings thereafter are free, with the exception of avocado, which is a dollar extra. I enjoyed my roll well enough, especially with the novelty of eating a customized sushi burrito. If you're ravenous like my husband and I were, you might find that one roll might be a little shy of a filling portion. The dining area is on the smaller side but clean. The folks behind the counter aren't warm and welcoming, but for a fast, casual meal, they get the job done.

Fast food was very mediocre. I usually go twice because sometimes it's just a bad day. We did not give them a second try.

The service was the honest to god worse service I have ever dealt with. The food is great but it feels like they were too skittish to even speak up!! I had hard time hearing these two women at all! Honestly the whole restaurant was dead as hell, they couldn't even be bothered to play anything. No wonder their delivery service is so good. They stink at actually talking to their customers, something that a place that looks similar to a subway would at least try to work on.

I came in yesterday to order a poke bowl with my friend around 1 pm. There was two girls working there, both with dark hair-- one with purple crocs and the other was just taller. Me walking into this restaurant that I only come to when I'm in Houston, right off the bat the tall girl just gave off the worst energy. I apologize if you're having a crappy day but my friend and I are in and have been in the food industry before and we know how to interact with our customers. Because, we make our money off on tips!! I walk in and smile at the tall one "Hi!", with a big smile on my face and she just said "Hi.", okay, maybe she's having a bad day. But, the negative energy proceeded to be carried throughout the rest of the interaction. Which was the longest 6 minutes of my life and I can say was very unpleasant. Amazing food!!!!!!! we ate it so fast. and the girl with the purple crocs, waved goodbye with a big smile when we left and told us to have a good rest of our day. Thank you, you too. She was nothing but kind. As servers in the food industry, I tipped anyways because they gave me service. My friend on the other hand, no tip. For what? Not even making any eye contact with us? Please. I will be coming back again primary for the food, not the service. Especially from that girl. I can't bring myself to rate this under 4 starts because I've always loved this place but, I really did not enjoy my interaction yesterday. Kind of disappointed with the treatment I received.

Ive only been here once but comparing to another sushi burrito place I go to. I dont have much enthusiasm for this place. I dont like to review at first visit so I may come back and give it another chance. The burrito was tasty but was small for the price. Staff were shy, didnt get that welcoming vibe. There is adequate seating and an outside area. You can create your own and if you dont like raw, there are cooked options.

First visit and it was so yummy! I do wish they had cauliflower rice option but if you're looking for lower carb option you can do greens instead of rice. Fresh ingredients made to order!

The food is actually what it says and I like it!! Makes sushi into a traveling burrito style dish. This place is basically a Japanese Chipotle in a good way. The menu is diverse and has a lot of toppings. I got the Wild Cajun which I enjoyed but I'd just have to get the right sauce on it. (FYI: I'm more of a cooked sushi person) The bowl comes with more food than a burrito which sucks since I believe they're priced the same. The service is cool for the most part. Not a huge sushi fan but I do want to come back and try something different next time.

I don't know how my review was removed . I'd like to Say Jilda is amazing and Kind she helped me pick my order out. Which now is my favorite & my go to I was in & out she has the best customer service I felt very welcoming. I recommended a friend and he enjoyed it as well check it out you are missing out ! Shoutout to Jilda for being phenomenal!!!

Excellent bowl! I love the option on the bowl verse the roll much easier to eat. The shrimp were delicious and love the topping options. Also had the U Maki Tī very good! When in the area again I will return. #yelpelitesquad

Hell yes!!!! I've been here twice now and the proteins are very fresh. I haven't tried the burrito yet but I've built my own bowls. If you know what you're getting then you'll love it. The business still has kinks to work out so I'll be back to give it another review better. 1) they need someone in front that has tried everything and suggest to the guest what to get with what sauces etc. more service and product knowledge for front of the house. 2) when I went on Thursday ( grand opening day) I was in line and the guy in front of me wanted a burrito but couldn't because they didn't have sushi rice and when it was mine turn I asked for a bowl and the rice that was for the bowl literally got taken to make Sushi rice and I was told there's no more rice for bowls and they could only make burritos! Like seriously that isn't okay? If you offer two types of dishes then they need to always have it. Not within a 1 minute gap where you have one and not the other and then the next you have it and not the other. 3) don't go during lunch time! They ran out of certain proteins :/ and very long lines so wait for it to die down a bit from the Grand opening . Update: they have gotten better service and offer both bowl and burrito. Update Jan.3rd,2019: today I got the rice bowl and the rice was more on the cold side and it was hard and tasted like it was uncooked. $13 down the drain. I had to find something else to eat as that was in-eatable

This place used to be good with reasonable prices awhile ago. Quality and service has went down but price jumped up. Now almost everything is $17+ for a sushi bowl/burrito? There is a sushi buffet Kirin II on 1960 that serves a lunch buffet with sushi for that same cost.

The girl that just helped me was extremely rude during the entire transaction. She seemed put off by me being there. I was looking at the menu and she never told me which options I have which is fine I can read and look. However don't stand there with a ugly annoyed face. She didn't say a word until the very end and asked me if I wanted a bag. She was able to use her phone and text instead of interacting with me though! I didn't get some of the produce items I would have liked because they didn't look fresh. The only positive was there was a nice lady in the booth that seemed to work there and told me to have a nice day. All in all a terrible experience. I definitely do not recommend it.

It's just Meh... I got a bowl with yellowtail and salmon, mushrooms, crab salad and that was it (they don't have a lot of mix-in options) and I got the miso sauce on it. First of all, for the cost it's a small amount of food-other poke places definitely give you more. Second, there's no taste.. literally it felt like I had eating super bland nothing-couldn't even taste the miso sauce. I added a little bit of soy sauce and that's the only thing I can taste. I wouldn't go back-much better options all around houston.

I've made U-Maki one of my go-to's. You have the option of selecting one of their menu items or creating your own. In an attempt to recreate one of my favorite sushi rolls, U-Maki had a wide variety of ingredients to choose from. It can get a bit messy once you get to towards the end of your burrito but with the provided chopsticks to assist in picking up the remains, it only increased the love I now have for this place. Being only a few minutes down the road from me, U-Maki will be a place I visit fairly often.

Fat Boy Sushi Burrito= A MUST. This was my first time trying a poke burrito, and I'm glad I got to try it at U-Maki. There's a reason why they call this burrito the "fat boy". Out of all the burritos on the menu, this one offered the most protein-- salmon, tuna, crab, and shrimp tempura. What's also so great about this place is that you can personalize your burrito/ bowl with as many toppings as you desire without an extra charge, besides avocado of course! You can even swap out one of proteins for another (for example, swapping the tuna for spicy salmon). The employee making my burrito was super generous. My "one" scoop of crab meat was equivalent to like... 4 normal scoops! I was standing behind the glass with my mouth on the floor. My burrito came out the size of a youth football. But I'm not complaining! The overall taste of the burrito was as expected of a higher quality poke joint. Fish and ingredients were fresh, sauces were standard. I did find that the burrito was really messy to eat. It was hard to bite through the nori and rice fell everywhere, but that's the beauty of burritos for you! Will be back!
