I eat at the Decater Ave. Makino whenever I am in Vegas. The variety is what I enjoy about Makino. The sushi is very acceptable, when you add in the salads (varied and creative), the soup selection (fresh greens, tofu w/ broth added when you get it) and the hot seafood/veggy dishes, the place is a delight. I think if you concentrate on a single item and rate Makino's per that item, you miss the old 'sum of its parts . . . ' maxim. It really applies here. The atmosphere is busy (it is a cafeteria to use the old parlance) , but very clean, and very glass and chrome sharp. A nice selection of desserts also. And the wait staff never rushes you . . . the price of $15 for lunch and about $10 additional for dinner is just right and a real bargain if you approach with the right mindset, that is, buffet, not a seat in front of the sushi chef catering to your individual tastes and whims . . . that costs double (or more) and requires a different venue.
