Mai

January 11, 2026

Mai is the sister restaurant to Matsunori handroll. Everything was really tasty; the space was new and bright and clean; and the service was on point. I sometimes don’t love strong nori flavour of hand rolls but these were excellent. The homemade soy sauce was another highlight. The toro handroll was so delicious. The lunch menu was pretty much just hand rolls but I think there is more variety at dinner. Worth a visit here and makes me want to try Matsunori.

Mai in Seaport was honestly so good — everything tasted super fresh and well put together. I started with the cabbage salad which was light, super crisp, and a great way to kick things off. I got a couple of handrolls that were really solid, super fresh and flavorful. The chicken tempura with caviar was probably my favorite and the sauce was so good, and the caviar added the perfect salty bite without being too much. The wagyu frites were amazing too since the wagyu was super tender, and the fries were perfectly crispy without feeling greasy at all. And the strawberry matchatini at the end was such a fun dessert drink it was sweet, creamy, and just really delicious. Definitely want to go back and try more.

Every dish at Mai Seaport feels like a carefully composed symphony — familiar yet elevated to perfection. The Uni Toast set the tone: buttery, crisp, and layered with the briny sweetness of fresh uni — a true umami indulgence. The Wagyu Tartare followed with melt-in-your-mouth richness, perfectly balanced with acidity and texture. The Sea Bream Carpaccio was a delicate showstopper — paper-thin slices kissed with citrus and sea salt, each bite bright and clean. The Miso Butter Cod Handroll and A5 Tenderloin Handroll were absolute highlights: warm rice, perfectly crisp nori, and fillings so luxurious they redefine what a handroll can be. The Toro Tea Cup was playful yet refined, a textural and temperature contrast that impressed from the first spoonful. Then came the Foie Gras Handroll, rich and decadent with just the right balance of sweetness and salt. The Wagyu Fat Fries were addictive — golden, crispy, and infused with smoky depth. And finally, the Aged Duck Risotto tied it all together: creamy, savory, and layered with flavor from slow aging and perfect seasoning. Every plate reflects technique, creativity, and respect for ingredients. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the pacing was seamless. Mai Seaport isn’t just a meal — it’s an experience worth savoring.

Went today for lunch, was there at 12pm sharp and was given a table immediately. The service is wonderful, we weren’t rushed, everyone was helpful. Started off with miso soup and seaweed salad: both very good. But the handrolls are the stars. In particular, I REALLY enjoyed the Toro—plan to get at least two of these next time. I also tried the regular tuna, yellowtail with scallion, and wagyu. All were tasty and of good size. Ideally 4-5 per person is a good amount. Cocktails are fun and tasty, tried their version of a French 75. Would definitely recommend. Note: the Old Fashioned is by far the best drink on the menu. Comes smokey & full of flavor. Again, really pleasant, tasty, fish was fresh and good quality. Presentation delightful. Will be back for sure.

First time here. Not disappointed. Despite having tasted different eel rolls, ikura rolls, salmon rolls, I was astounded by the unique and fresh flavors of these rolls. The premium set was worth checking out. I enjoyed all, but the butter cod roll was my favorite. Sweet note and and hint of butter in the soft seasoned rice wrapped inside the crunchy yet tender seaweed. These rolls went nicely with their soy sauce. I have to say the soy sauce here is not intense salty like many other sushi places. The soy sauce also delivered a soft sweetness that lingers in your mouth after a bit. The real wasabi and ginger was great. I will take my family back here again!
