Hidden in one of the busiest districts in Bangkok, Sushi Masato is shrouded in between clusters of parked motorcycles and graffiti-laden concrete walls. I must say it is not an easy find for me.
The restaurant accommodates 12 seats around Sushi Bar and two large tables with capacity up to 6 people.
Sushi Masato is an exclusive traditional omakase sushi bar with a combination of Edo Mar and New York Mae styles of sushi. He was one of the first Omakase-style Japanese restaurants in Bangkok and has stayed at the top of its game since it's opening in 2015. Signature dishes are Ankimo (slow-cooked monkfish liver) and Anago (seawater eel).

All in all, Sushi Masato was certainly a worthwhile experience. To communicate better with the customers, the chef has a book on their ingredients which they use to flash to the diners to explain not only the spirit of Japanese cuisine, the ingredients used and how good sushi should taste like,
