Don't forget lunch is 15 bucks...also,are they still offering the cocktail with the AYCE? Seems like last time I went I remember not seeing it


There is a lunch and dinner menu, the lunch is more limited, the dinner also comes with a drink but more expensive.

A classmate of mine works at the resort where the number 1 spot is. He said it's very legit, he eats there often. $50 person.

Never understood how a city of 225,000 can sustain as many sushi restaurants as BR

"fresh never frozen"


All fish, with the exception of tuna, that is intended to be served raw is required by the FDA to be “frozen and stored at a temperature of -20°C (-4°F) or below for a minimum of 168 hours (7 days)”.

I think sushi is a natural extension to our love for seafood and and different taste from our traditional fried, baked and boiled seafood.

All their fish in fresh, never frozen


This guy probably thinks the red snapper is actually red snapper. There's a good chance they use tilapia that is injected with nitrous to make it look like red snapper. I'm not saying Sushi Masa definitely does this, but it is pretty common place in sushi restaurants.

The owner charters fishing boats from the Northeast coats of the United States and Scotland to bring in fresh wild salmon.


The restaurant's food cost must be astronomical if they are chartering their own fishing boats.

Because metro BR and the surrounding areas is much larger than 200k. I agree that we probably have more sushi places per person for an average city but you are grossly understating how many people live here

Sushi Masa is decent, cheap and all you can eat... which seems to be very popular with Baton Rougeans

I have a love/hate relationship with Sushi Masa. Love the food and EAYE, but then I leave feeling like the Goodyear blimp.

Grossly understating? Ok, so throw in Livingston and Ascension. You're at what, 650,000? Still way too many. LP and Ascension in and of themselves have way too many.

That's 3x the amount of people than your previous post.

The demand seems to be there so maybe BR is a sushi town. Along with Mexican food. Those seem to be everywhere.

Cool with me though. Two of my favorite foods
