Two of my friends and I headed to Makino after a long day at the pool, very hungry and very excited for \"all you can eat sushi\" - willing to pay a hefty $30 each.\n\nWe ordered our plates and set out to the buffet.  The diversity of dishes was good, but the selection of rolls, Sushi, and Sashimi was limited.  We loaded up our plates and sat down to eat.  \n\nThe first comment that came out of my friends mouth was that her sashimi was lukewarm - like, sat out for a while warm.  We kept eating and each bite was as unexciting as the last.  No good flavors, weird, congealed textures - it all just seemed unfresh - not something you usually expect - especially for $30 a head.\n\nDisappointed, we stopped eating before we had finished our first plates and tried to think of how we should proceed.  None of us wanted to keep eating, but felt that we had invested far too much to not get a good meal.  Finally, I decided to call the waitress over and very politely let her know that we didn't like our food.\n\nShe went away and spoke to her manager (who i found out was the owner) and told me there was nothing she could do.  I persisted and she brought him over.  He told me that there was nothing he could do because I had started eating the food (well duh- how would I know it was bad).  He then claimed that I must not like sushi (the moment when I was glad I was sitting with two Asian girls).  Finally he told me he would remove one of our meals from the bill. So - eventually we paid $60 for three people to eat a few scraps of food.  \n\nI wouldn't recommend this place - warm, congealed sushi for $30 a person.
