You are definitely correct. Maki are often found in a similar setting as
sushi (except real sushi bars).
For a beef roll that actually meets the definition of sushi take a look at

Asking for this would get me thrown out of any respectable sushi bar (if the
Itamae didn't kill me first).
But it's great for parties and office gatherings.
