The food and overall experience at Makoto is very good. We mainly ordered appetizers to share, and I would come back just for the Steam Buns. Everything about the buns, from the bao, to the cole slaw, to the beef tasted well and paired very nicely. We also shared some sushi rolls, my favorite being the Shrimp Tempura roll. Other items that I would recommend are the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice, Spicy Edamame, and Chicken Dumplings. We sat inside, the lighting was extremely low and it was very difficult to read the menu, but I also noticed the terrace which seems to be the more popular spot to dine.
