“ My first time in Spain and didn’t think I would find myself looking for Japanese food. Especially coming from Hawaii where this lots of Asian food. However, my niece recommended this place and I am SO glad she did. We ended up coming twice because once wasn’t enough. The fish was quality, the service was attentive and friendly. Our second time we reserved seats at the sushi bar and what a great experience. Masae, the owner was very friendly and made us feel so welcome. Whether you like Japanese food or not, this is a must stop! ”
“ Fantastic sushi and a true surprise in Granada. Everything was so delicious. The ingredients are fresh...good varieties of sashimi /sushi. Apart from sashimi/ sushi, the ramen in chicken soup is really a good surprise, definitely not like the stock in chains restaurants. The chef, Masae is wonderful, with great service from her Team. Highly recommended if you had already too much tapas. ”
“ I had a great time at Masae’s. The food was amazing. I had nigiri, temaki, tempura and other dishes. They were all very delicious. Masae and her crew were super friendly. The restaurant also had a great atmosphere. Highly recommend! ”
“ An Absolute Sushi Highlight – It Doesn’t Get Much Better Outside of Japan! I had the great pleasure of experiencing one of the best sushi meals outside of Japan. The fish was of outstanding quality – incredibly fresh, tender, and perfectly sliced. Every bite was a delight and reflected true craftsmanship in its preparation. The service was also exceptional: extremely friendly, attentive, and pleasantly unobtrusive. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed and well taken care of. The value for money was another pleasant surprise – for the quality and overall experience, the price is more than fair. A must-visit for all sushi lovers – I will definitely be coming back! ”
“ Service was excellent. Our servers were amazing. Atmosphere was nice as well. The food was amazing.. everything was fantastic. Portions were generous and tasty. Only thing that wasn't up to my standard was Fatty tuna sashimi plate. However, for the price it was acceptable. Overall highly recommend to visit here. ”
“ Fish was fresh and pricing for the share platter was very reasonable. After seeing the quality, wish we had paid the extra and ordered more variety off the Nigiri/sashimi list but overall very happy. Staff were friendly ”
“ Visiting Masae in Granada with my family of five without a reservation on a busy weekend could have been a challenge, but the staff handled it brilliantly! Despite the crowd, they accommodated us with a smile, and the service was nothing short of outstanding. Each dish we sampled was a revelation in its own right. The Takoyaki was a savory treat, while the Gyoza delicately wrapped succulent filling. The Chicken Karaage crisply fried yet tender within. They even treated us to complimentary sake, which was a delightful surprise. The environment was friendly, making our dining experience truly enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality Japanese cuisine and excellent service! ”
“ Super good fresh food, you eat in the kitchen so while you are waiting you can see the owner and her staff making the sushi/ sashimi. You taste the love they have for making a damn good dish. Not to much fringles so you can realy taste the absolutly super fresh fish. Its melting on your tongue. Because the place is so tiny you hear a lot of noise and we found that a bit disturbing. Next time we will just order. But you have to taste the tuna it's the best I ever had. ”
