About

Restaurant Makoto specializes in an authentic fusion of Japanese and Korean culinary traditions, anchored by high-quality tabletop BBQ preparations. Guests grill marinated meats, such as bulgogi or galbi, alongside fresh seafood and seasonal vegetables directly at their tables. The menu features a diverse selection of traditional side dishes and prepared entrees that reflect classic flavor profiles from both cultures. Minimalist decor creates a focused environment designed specifically to highlight the interactive nature of the cooking process. A strong emphasis on raw ingredient quality ensures that every sear and seasoning remains consistent with traditional preparation methods. This establishment serves as a dedicated destination for individuals seeking a collaborative meal centered around the heat of the grill and the depth of fermented spices.

Review Summary

Restaurant Makoto is widely appreciated for its generous portions, affordable pricing, and inviting atmosphere, making it a popular destination for Japanese and Korean comfort food. Many diners frequently praise the quality of dishes like bibimbap, katsu, and various stews, often highlighting the attentive and friendly service provided by the staff.

I love this restaurant. But i prefer the old menu. They don't have udon on the menu anymore. Wish they add japchae to their menu.

Si vous venez dans ce restaurant, c'est surtout pour l'expérience, bien que la nourriture soit très bonne. À votre entrée, le serveur vous accueillera & vous placera vers une table dépendant le nombre de personnes que vous êtes. Lorsque vous entrerez, vous verrez la magnifique décoration qui nous fait tout de suite penser au Japon. Le serveur vous donnera des verres d'eaux & les menus lorsque vous serez à votre table. Pendant que vous serez entrain de choisir votre plat, le serveur vous donnera gratuitement du thé. Aussi, les plats principaux viennent avec des soupes miso. Je vous conseille les plats à base de poulet, car ils sont excellents.

I love this place. My family & I come here often. But, regarding the new menu, I am not convinced about the changes. I miss the sundubu jjigae & the beef/seafood udon. Also, the salad with the ginger vinaigrette... I hope the restaurant brings them back soon !

We were excited to return to Makoto after its closure during the holidays, but we were disappointed with the menu changes as well as the presentation. We ordered the Katsu chicken & noticed that the new side dish (potatoes, Green beans, mushrooms) as well as the rice were served cold. We preferred the previous side, which consisted of a salad with a variety of vegetables & the delicious dressing that paired so well with the dumplings & rice. We also noticed that the chicken's breading was more crumbly. Overall, our experience was less satisfying than usual. We hope that the restaurant will consider bringing back elements of the previous menu, which we greatly enjoyed.

My wife & I used to be a regular customer here. We were waiting for the restaurant to be reopen. However it was total disappointment when the menu kind of changed. My go-to usual was the Fried Chicken Udon Noodles & Karaag. Both were unavailable on the new menu & Chicken katsu seem to be new style as well which didn't like. Flavor lacks & we really prefer the old menu & flavor combinations. Hope the owner takes this seriously because we would love to come back again.
