Who We Are

Maru Hospitality Group has created one of Michigan’s most beloved sushi restaurants, offering thoughtfully-prepared food delivered with warmth and hospitality. 

Founded by CEO Robert Song and Director of Culinary Arts Chef Moon Yang with the opening of Maru Sushi Okemos in 2009, MHG now extends beyond the Lansing region with Maru locations in Detroit, East Lansing, Midland. Kalamazoo, and two in Grand Rapids.

 
 
 

Thoughtfully-Prepared Sushi

Our signature rolls are made with love— from the sushi rice we use, to the garnishes we finish with. Each roll is a harmonious reflection of honoring a traditional cuisine and rediscovering it through a modern lens.

 
 
 
 

Chef-Driven Mentality

“We want our chefs to say, ‘I made this and I stand behind it’.  It’s a craft.  We want them to be proud of every single dish they prepare.”  — Robert Song, Founder

 
 

Warm Hospitality

“Maru is a place where everyone feels like family and we can all be ourselves. Taking extra time out of my day to make someone’s day more special is what it's all about!" — Chris Roberts, Midland Executive Chef

 
 
 
 

Modern, Unique Environment

Each restaurant is brought to life through the collaboration of the MHG team, local architects, and designers.  Original elements of the building and organic materials are woven into the space to compliment our food and provide a contemporary, unique dining experience.
