Tepid greetings from a side-eye-giving hostess start the evening here. Don't go into hospitality if you don't want to be hospitable to the people patronizing a business. Period.Our server was much friendlier, though, which was a big relief. She was helpful and attentive throughout.We tried the pork belly, escargot, frog legs and duck l'orange, and had the mint mules to drink.The drinks were a fantastic non-alcoholic option for us. Too many mocktails rely solely on sugar to pass by, but these didn't. The flavor was interesting and sharp. A+The pork belly and escargot were the clear winners of the night. Whatever sauce is on that belly is absolute fire. The frog legs were just okay and tasted like nothing more than bland, tiny fried chicken. Do NOT order the duck l'orange. I took one bite and almost considered sending it back. First mistake, they GROUND the duck and pressed it into a meatball, rendering it indistinguishable from ground turkey. Unfortunately, that decision was not described on the menu so I felt seriously misled. Such a massive shame. It was so salty that I almost choked. I am not exaggerating--the amount of salt in this dish produced an involuntary physical rejection. The price tag on this dish is abhorrent considering what you get in return. The tables are extra tiny here as well, so it was a constant struggle to move dishes around and find room for everything.This place is a pass for me. Do better, Maison Yaki.

The portions are so small! 13-19 dollars for two tiny skewers. You'll leave hungry and wallet empty

Japanese skewers with French sauce. Expect to spend ~$40/person to make your tummy feel somewhat happy. Small menu but solid choices.

Served us undercooked chicken to the point of it being blue on the inside. First time I've ever sent back food to the kitchen. Also the water tasted so bad, we had to order drinks just to avoid drinking it. I live just blocks from this place and my tap water tastes better than theirs somehow? And we spent $128 on our food and left hungry.The salad was delightful though.

Outdoor patio in rear was comfortable, though a neighboring A/C was quite loud. The food made up for that minor shortcoming. Every plate was delicious and interesting. Pacing was perfect and service was attentive. Not a cheap meal but it lived up to its price point. Highly recommended.

.. I've been twice, and the tapas are tasty, I just never leave feeling satisfied. I get that tapas are bites to share, but for the cost, you just don't get enough food. We got the short rib skewer which was delicious, but it was $18, for 4 small pieces. I could get a whole burger for $14 elsewhere. The asparagus special was fantastic, as was the BREAD!! But again, the bread came with 2 rolls, and was $10. Im mad just typing that out. My friend loves the cauliflower okonomiyaki, and the texture is great, but again, so small. I think this place is better for like... a drink and a snack, but not for dinner. Otherwise you'll be spending A LOT to feel like you've had enough food.

My husband and I had dinner at Maison Yaki a few weeks ago and had a wonderful experience. The drinks are phenomenal (for anyone reading, get the Tarragon Margarita!) and the food is delightful. You can't go wrong ordering anything, but my personal favorites were the French Breakfast Radishes, Pork Belly, and the Chocolate Pot De Creme for dessert. These are definitely small plates so be ready to share and try many things! The staff were super sweet (ESPECIALLY Jane, I hope I'm remembering their name right - they checked in on us so frequently, made recommendations, and made us feel so welcome). We will definitely be back!

I had the scallops, the cauliflower okonomiyaki, and the asparagus almondine. All were great. The hostess is a bundle of friendliness, and very helpful (she put my ice cream in the freezer while i contemplated their menu). The bartender, Jordan, (Wednesday night) was fun, attentive, intelligent (and cute). All in all, I will come back here, . . . When i. Am feeling wealthier! Lol. Nice vibe for a date, and soft lighting.

Had dinner here with a couple of friends and sat outside which was the perfect place to people watch. The service was downright some of the best service ever, they know the menu inside and out and that's a huge accomplishment, as there are lots of details to each dish. We had two different waitstaff helping us with making decisions on what to order, and they were both Incredibly helpful, attentive, and so friendly they kept us smiling the entire time we were there. The food is just so good. Japanese with a French twist. The mushroom, scallops, pork belly skewers were some of my favorites but everyone ended up having their own favorites too. Fun place to go and share dishes. Cocktails also hit the spot. Thank you Maison Yaki for a thoroughly wonderful dining out experience !

They're not seasoning the ingredients properly. It's sad they're not tasting what they're making along the way before they serve it.
