Bar Masa

Excelente! Nos sentamos en la barra, que siendo dos personas funciona muy bien. Tuvimos una interacción muy agradable con el barman quien nos recomendó que pedir muy acertadamente !

What a perfect evening. Everything was excellent. Everything we ordered was fabulous. The staff is so friendly and polite. A perfect special occasion restaurant. Definitely planning to go back.

We had reservations here on a Saturday evening. The restaurant is small so reservations are recommended. We had drinks at the bar first. Pretty bar. Nice bartender. He made alterations to my drink to accommodate my taste. Big a la carte menu. We enjoyed the ribs (spicy), wings, duck rice, hamachi kama, a sushi roll, and sesame ice cream. Everything had good flavor. Prices are high so that's a good thing.

Esperienza molto molto positiva e interessante. Piatti perfetti fatti con materie prime straordinarie.

The food was delicious. The Masa Toro Toro roll was super (but expensive). Fried chicken dumplings were tasty. Cod in Masa butter was out of this world. Pasta made from shrimp was tasty and unique. The restaurant is quiet and the service is excellent. Overall this is a wonderful place for a quiet dinner.

I always enjoy the experience. The sushi is of course expertly crafted and amazing as is the sake pairing but the staff really just go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. I've gone a few times and they've taken the time to remember me and some of my orders even though I visit months apart. This is an exceptional service and experience.

Every dish was amazing. The tuna with grated wasabi was pure bliss. The sashimi was fresh and melt-in-your mouth goodness. The miso butter cod was delicious. The waitress was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. The birthday dessert was an extra bonus! Thank you for the green tea mille-crepe! Can't wait to come back!

We visited on a Saturday night after we saw a Broadway show. 530 reservation, seated right away. Very small, but was not crowded. Started off with the Dusk to Dawn and the Milan Agave to drink. Both very good. We ordered 3 rounds throughout our meal. For appetizers, we ordered the Soy Chicken Wings and the crispy Chicken Dumplings. Very fresh ingredients, very good for both. We never felt rushed so next we put in our entree order. I had the Beef Fried Rice and my boyfriend opted for the Seasonal Tasting Sushi for $110. My Beef Fried Rice was very good, not greasy- fresh. It did have a lot of onions in it which I'm not keen over, but it was still very good. My boyfriend's seasonal sushi he said was good. They did ask if he didn't want a certain fish or whatnot, but it was not enough for him to eat. He inhaled it quick and was still hungry after. For $110 you shouldn't leave hungry. He put in another order of BBQ Ribs. I was too full to try, but they were good he said. The bill was about $445 but the rounds of drinks adds up the bill quickly. Service was excellent, ambience was nice, just wish the Sushi selection had more to it, but we were happy with our experience.

Bar Mass is the best. We enjoy it every time we return to New York and always crave going back. ♥️

Excellent food, intimate atmosphere and impeccable service. 10/10 we will definitely come back.

A visit to a restaurant helmed by the legendary Masayoshi Takayama—Chef Masa—sets the expectation for an extraordinary culinary experience, where every detail reflects precision, elegance, and mastery. Bar Masa does not disappoint. From the moment of arrival, the service was flawlessly attentive, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening. Each dish was a work of art, both in presentation and flavor, embodying the refined excellence one would anticipate from a world-renowned chef.

A lovely quiet place with great service and fish. Can't go wrong here. Very expensive but worth it as a splurge.

Bar Masa delivers consistently. This is my fifth visit and Bar Masa is my favorite spot in NYC for a great evening of amazing food, incredible service, and delicious drinks. Every time I have out-of-town visitors, Bar Masa is a must!

Excellent Japanese food (all varieties - not just sushi), exquisite service. Also an extensive sake collection. Bar Masa is small and intimate - great for having conversations over dinner! The price is typically midtown Manhattan (so not inexpensive!) but the food and service were well worth it.

I visited this location many times , service as usual perfect , but food was absolutely not good , we ordered eel with rice , was really just burnt, sushi which by default should have been great didn't seem fresh, I was very surprised and disappointed, I hope it was just my bad luck
