Wonderful Rainbow Roll, delicious fresh seafood, well made n excellent presentation. Friendly efficient service, not cheap compared to other central American countries but well priced for Monteverdi Costa Rica

I am always sceptical about sushi places in small towns, but this place is pretty good. They put a lot of effort into the food and the staff were really nice.

My wife and I are avid sushi lovers and know what good sushi tastes like. Unfortunately masashi has to be the worst sushi I've ever had in my entire life and would never recommend any body to eat here. First of all, there was no miso soup or salad included which is standard. The prices were ridiculous (10-15$/roll) which I... More

Despite these great reviews, we were disappointed with this restaurant. The smell of old grease was strong, and my tempura tasted like it. The tempura batter was good, and the vegetables were nice, but the shrimp were old and tough. My husband had the sushi and a large dose of sashimi, and thought it was quite good, although at $25...

The food was delicious and the service was wonderful. We were the only people there, as it was early on Christmas Eve and it was raining. The server was very attentive and polite without smothering us. Everything we ate was yummy, attractive and innovative. This place really exceeded our expectations for sushi in Costa Rica! We would've gone back again... More

The food was amazing. Such a surprise to find authentic tasting Japonese food of a high quality in La fortuna. We could tell the chef loves what he does as it shows in his enthusiasm, as well as in the quality and presentation of his food. He catered to our vegetarian diet easily and with pleasure. We tried for the... More

The title tells it like it is -- in a town where you would not expect to have great sushi, you can find great sushi. I ate at this restaurant twice this past summer and I was blown away by the freshness of the fish. The menu is very pricey, but I think the quality of the food reflected the... More

We were the only ones but the service was phenomenal. Great atmosphere and the sushi was so filling, not to mention prepared beautifully. Admittedly a little pricey, but that goes for all sushi it seems (really not much different than others we've had in Costa Rica). Would definitely recommend this and would definitely return.

The small but quaint and cozy place has a good price and quality for sushi in Costa Rica, with very friendly service. Definitely recommendable. Very good!

The service was wonderful. The ambiance was fine. But the food, oh the food. Fantastic sushi - the best I've found in Costa Rica! Also, they have the best fried rice I've ever tasted, I'm not sure what they put in it, but it is different and phenomenal! We had the house special fried rice. The dessert was also very... More
