My coworker and I visited from out of town and googled sushi near me. This place was clean, the food was delicious, and the staff were sweet. They have an “A” rating on health inspection. Very reasonably priced! Will return when in town.

The food at Masa is always amazing! Their location also has a cozy vibe perfect for a date! We always get the Crunch Much roll, and this time we tried the Fire Roll, which has an amazing presentation!

My husband and I go here all the time, it’s our favorite spot! It’s a really great locally owned restaurant. Every single time we come here I find something new to love. Ren and her family that own this place take pride in everything from the food, to the decorations, to the service. It’s the best sushi in Louisville! It’s always fresh. I love the seafood udon and the Yaki scallop too. You cannot beat this place or the price!
