“Fantastic staff at NES who are very helpful and friendly. Lovely range of clothes. Love the Dolly pants I brought”

“Good price, good sushi, great service. Now becomes my go to place for lunch”

“An absolutely fabulous place to go with kids. The menu is all amazingly delicious and healthy! The kids had smoothies and we had yummy toasted chicken wraps with coffee and bliss balls. Highly recommended! The Snickers bliss balls and tropical smoothie were to die for. The owner and staff are super lovely! The kids had such a great time with the painting too. Even colouring in and a cool kids corner for the younger ones. A must do in Huapai!”

“Amazing service and great prices. Good afternoon snack.”

“I recently tried chicken teriyaki and I must say, it was a delightful experience. The shop itself was super clean and the owner was really friendly. They've also got a great menu with udon noodles, bento boxes, curry and awesome sushi packs. Looking forward to explore more of their food and highly recommend this place for anyone looking to have good affordable Japanese dishes.”

“It's half-price when I went there after 4pm. I felt much better. As you know, prices in New Zealand are too high. There was sushi for vegetarian and there were various kinds of fried food. The fried food was sweet and delicious because it had chili sauce on it. It was a satisfying meal. I want to try Donburi next time. All the food in Marusushi looks delicious.”

“Really great sushi for a reasonable price. The Salmon Cream Cheese sushi is very good.”
