Maru is probably the best restaurant in the SCV. Took my wife there for Valentine's day. I felt as if I was in some trendy west side restaurant in Santa Monica. Excellent sushi, interesting presentation, nice atmosphere.

This is, by far, the stand-out sushi bar here in Santa Clarita. This is no all-you-can-eat place...this is fresh beautifully prepared fish. This is the real thing. For non-sushi eaters, the dinner menu has some absolutely fabulous dishs which are presented perfectly. On a cold day, try the Beef Sukiyaki or Seafood Yosenabe delivered to your table in a steaming cast iron pot and just loaded with a variety of seafood. Save room for dessert; here everything is homemade, including the ice cream (try the banana chocolate chip - to die for!!) and the peach cobbler which comes in a large ramekin and is delicious. We've been eating here since it first opened and have never been disappointed! ps This is a great place for couples or a small family with well-behaved children as it is somewhat small with close tables - really not a "family restaurant" per se.

3 Stars: Very Nice Place, Good Food, Not So Good Service!! (by Amy E.)

Maru is a small nice sushi place by Valencia Town Center, the sushi I had tried is very good, also the hot entrees, and the desserts are also very good. I have been there more than a couple of times. Only problem service most of the time has been bad, you would see the bus boy beeing very helpful, but the waitress just forget about your table. Try it for the food, and let's just hope that the service gets better.

PROS: Nice Place, Good Food
CONS: Bad Service
