Book NowAbout Sushi Masato
Bangkok regulars treat this Sukhumvit hideaway as the benchmark for Tokyo-caliber Edomae sushi. Behind the counter, Chef Masato pairs disciplined temperature control with an easy, unpretentious warmth—pulling out illustrated reference books to map out the exact origin of seasonal cuts. The progression moves unhurried across pristine seafood flown in from Japan: fire squid stuffed with ankimo, steamed abalone in rich liver sauce, and marinated akami. Upstairs, a tucked-away bar counter serves custom cocktails alongside the tasting. Planning ahead is mandatory—seats fill a month out—before winding down over uni, hairy crab with caviar, or an off-menu wagyu sandwich.
- Tokyo-Caliber Edomae: Intimate counter tasting focused on precise temperature balance and seasonal seafood flown in daily from Japan.
- Illustrated Seafood Provenance: Chefs share the provenance, seasonality, and background of each catch using illustrated reference books and maps.
- Integrated Mixology Bar: Upper-floor dining pairs the omakase courses with a dedicated bartender mixing custom cocktails at the counter.
- Signature Add-Ons: Dinners can be supplemented with decadent add-ons like the wagyu sandwich and manao roll.
