Bar Masa

Bar Masa offers a great space to enjoy a really good meal. I had the Sushi Assortment which featured the chefs choice of various cuts. I also enjoyed a salad and a shrimp tempura roll. The server was very attentive to my needs, even though she was very busy with a neighboring table who had trouble ordering, though no fault of the server or establishment. At one point my server was kind enough to send another server to my table to assist since she was caught up at that table for a longer period of time. Over all, Bar Masa is a great place to visit. The location allows you to eat and then shop all without ever leaving and e steering the cold!

Have always wanted to try Bar Masa, I had lunch there for the first time recently. The food, service, and atmosphere were all great. Yes, the sushi is very expensive, but it was worthwhile to try at least once. Bar Masa is definitely more of a special occasion type experience. A reservation in the main dining room, which is next door, is now around $1000 per person. No thanks on that!

Unfortunately, you cannot take pictures when your enter the restaurant, but that is also its charm. The experience of getting served one piece of sushi at a time is magical. Watching searing of a piece of tuna with a hot poker is something that is so unique and unusual it'll make you forget about the dinner's price tag. The taste is nice, no better than you will probably find in your local sushi restaurant, but the visual of the process, army like coordination of orders being shouted from Chef to his support staff is not like anything you'll ever see anywhere else.

We ate at counter and watched amazing cocktails being prepared. Delicious meal ~ Uni with Foie-gras, Sushi, Miso Cod, Tacos… nice ice creams. Very enjoyable experience.

Yes, this place deserves all three Michelin stars and yes it's worth making that reservation. No, I haven't found another omakase that is on par with this yet. Frankly, I've never had a meal in my life that comes close to this. I wish I was a seasoned sushi reviewer who could explain in detail the intricacies of each piece. I'm not up to that task so suffice it to say that I felt forced to close my eyes to truly appreciate the pure euphoria brought on by the pieces here. I was so honored to be served by Chef Masa Takayama himself and to be given the opportunity to take a photo with him. Thank you so much.

Great experience with amazing variety of sushi. Number of portions were more than other omakese. We liked the intimate experience as we were sitting on the counter and had an amazing chef (Gino) serving us. The only reason I gave 4 (instead of 5) starts, were the crowdedness of chefs behind thr counter and the level of noise.

Feeling so bad today!!! Today is me and my husband 5 years anniversary, here treated like I was lower class!!!! I remember When my husband doesn't feel full after eating omakase, and then we ask for menu and try to order more food, and we ask for more wasabi and ginger, a Mecican man (Bartender) He gave us despise expression and walk away. And I can hear the waiters whispering that we ordered a lot of food and ate a lot. I am like, What!!!???? Is the service for three Michelin stars like this??? Is that any requirement we can not ask more food after Omakase????? We have money pay for it, but we really don’t want to pay for this worse service, we won’t come back next time for sure.

My wife and I dined here on 6/17/2022. The staff was very friendly and approachable when we had questions about the wine vs sake pairing. The food was excellent. Not as much sushi/sashimi as I would have thought (personal opinion), but had a lot of other seafood/food. For the best overall experience, I'd suggest sitting at the counter, in front of the Chefs. It costs more but if you want a more elevated experience, that would be the pinnacle.
