We had an overall enjoyable experience here, thanks to the kind and attentive staff, including the chef himself. The select dishes served by the chef, including the five appetizers at the start, were excellent. I loved the uni dish and toro. The Masayoshi house sake stood out as my favorite as well —it was incredibly smooth and delightful.

However, as a Michelin-starred restaurant, there are significant areas for improvement:

1. Reservation Timing: We had an 8:30 PM reservation, but the previous seating didn’t finish until 8:45. This delay was not an ideal start to a dinner that lasted until 11 PM. Better coordination is needed to avoid such waits.

2. Portion Sizes: While the sushi and appetizers were flavorful, the portions were underwhelming. We left still feeling hungry after a nearly $500 meal. We actually had to stop by at the hotel bar to have more food. Compared to other top-tier omakase experiences globally, the sushi pieces were notably smaller, with disappointingly thinner slices of fish. I feel they won't lose much profit even if they increase the quantity by 30-40%.

3. The system: The chef frequently left the bar to prepare dishes and manage staff, which disrupted the flow of the meal. This gave the impression of a lack of coordination. The system should be refined so the chef can stay focused on the dining experience without interruptions.

Despite these critiques, it was still a great experience. Given the restaurant’s Michelin recognition, I hope this constructive feedback helps them enhance their offerings and provide even greater joy to their customers.

Not worth the hype firstly

I had high expectations for Masayoshi, especially given its 1-star Michelin status, but this was one of the most mediocre omakase experiences I’ve had in years. While the service was solid, the quality and execution of the dishes left a lot to be desired. For the price, I expected far more creativity, flavor, and refinement.

If you’re looking for a memorable omakase, you’re better off at Sushi Hil (better quality at half the price), Yaletown Okeya, or even Mahana in North Vancouver. I dine on omakase at least twice a month, and this experience just didn’t meet the standard.

I remember when I visited Masayoshi in 2022, pre-Michelin star, I was blown away by the quality of the ingredients and the creativity of the preparation.

Two years later, I decided to take my best friend, and I’m sad to say that it did not meet my expectations. I’ve had omakase in Vancouver, NYC, and Japan, both Michelin and non-Michelin. Masayoshi used to be my favourite.

The main points I find lacking for an omakase of this price point and calibre, both general and not:

1) the amount of imported seafood from Japan was quite lacking this time. They mostly stuck to local, and it wasn’t impressive.

2) many of the appetizers’ flavours felt similar and blended together. None were very memorable, and quite bland compared to my previous experience here.

3) there was too much cooked fish in the appetizers compared to before. While some may prefer this, I’m here for the freshest fish presented in the freshest way — raw.

4) I love chutoro. Today, my chutoro was stringy and hard to chew through. What I consider both a miss in terms of quality and expertise.

5) My reservation was at 8:30, we arrived on time, but we did not start until 8:50. I think punctuality is a sign of appreciation and professionalism, and customers definitely deserve at least that.

My favorite nigiris were hotate, aji, and hirame. They were all paired with seasoning that were chosen well to elevate the flavour of the fish. Of course bafun uni never misses.
Also loved the nodoguro hand roll, took me back to Kanazawa.

Anyways, I do hope the “wow” factor of Masayoshi returns soon!

An amazing birthday experience! I highly recommend Masayoshi Omakase for dinner for any special occasion or even on a normal night! It’s such an intimate atmosphere, the staff were amazing, and the food spectacular. The restaurant definitely earned its Michelin star as every detail was finely curated and tailored to melt in our mouth. The staff and chef’s knowledge of the various different fish and where the origin of the fish was exported from was evident in their passionate explanations and omakase preparation. I felt like I was transported back to Japan. If you would like an authentic taste of Japan and simply miss the vibrant country and want a unique experience, I definitely recommend Masayoshi!

Excellent omakase here in Vancouver! Really enjoyed my experience, everyone was super helpful and accommodating. The chef was extremely skilled and his craft was well refined. The fish was exquisite and amazingly fresh and all the dishes were put together to absolute perfection. If you can afford this I would say definitely go for the sake pairings as well.
