The owner of San Antonio’s popular Hugo’s Sushi and Asian Cuisine is days away from wrapping up a new Far West Side concept. Makirrito, a new restaurant devoted to trendy sushi burritos, will open in late June in Portico at Shaenfield Ranch development at 7807 W Loop 1604 N.

As the name teases, Makirrito focuses on burrito-sized maki (sushi rolls) wrapped in seaweed or a tortilla. The handhelds can be customized with fresh fish, shrimp tempura, grilled chicken, and veggies, or guests can order chef’s creations like the Nami with yellowtail and chipotle mayo.

The spot will also serve a variety of poke bowls served on sushi rice or mixed greens. Traditional Japanese sides like edamame, seaweed salad, gyoza, and cheese kushiage (deep-fried skewers) will complete the meals.

Unlike other restaurants serving the buzzy fusion wraps, Makirrito sets itself apart by incorporating Mexican flavors. In addition to the expected jalapeños and avocados, owner Hugo Gonzalez previously said the new concept will make various salsas and condiments, such as chiles toreados. The drink menu is equally cross-cultural, serving Dos Equis and Kirin Ichiban.

“Makirrito was created to be fresh, quick, and crave-worthy — ideal for lunch, dinner, or on-the-go,” Gonzalez earlier told CultureMap. “Beyond food, we’re aiming to create a fun, modern space where the community can experience something new and different while still feeling approachable and family-friendly.”

Makirrito’s opening follows a string of restaurant debuts at the multi-million-dollar development. Mexican bowl concept El Mercado opened in May, followed by new locations of local favorites Crepeccino and Box St. All Day in June.

Still to come is a new location of Cedar Park-based churrascaria Bitelo Brazilian Steakhouse and Monterey seafood joint D’Fish House. The status of the latter is uncertain. Although it established a social media presence in 2025, it has gone quiet for 49 weeks.
