Maki

Maki is a favorite to a lot of my friends, but this was our first trip.  We went to the web page, and was able to make reservations via the web.  In fact, the manager called back within 30 minutes to confirm our reservation and asked if we wanted to be seated in smoking or non-smoking. We parked in the general parking area for the Moda Mall. My game plan when ordering was to order the top recommendations from our friends.  As a result, we ordered a lot of food! The lighting in the restaurant didn't allow me to give the pictures their true justice.  We ordered the Crispy Salad (5.5BD)  for a starter. It was a nice portion, with crispy potato chips and wonderful dressing on top.  We followed that up with the Garlic Tuna Tataki Sashimi (7BD).  The tuna was very, very good.  We then had two main dishes, the Volcano Maki (6.5BD) and the Tartufo Yaki Udon (8.5BD).  Both dishes were outstanding. The Tartufo Yaki Udon had very thinly sliced scallops cooked with truffles.  Every dish was delicious and worth the price.  Of course, there are a lot of sushi restaurants here in Bahrain. Yo Sushi, Bushido, Kabuki and Sumo Bento to mention a few; however, for a very upscale restaurant with delicious food and wonderful service, Maki is my recommendation.
