Opened in 2015 by Tojo’s alumnus Masayoshi Baba, Masayoshi’s 24-seat restaurant was one of the first to bring a high-end Omakase-only dining experience to Vancouver. After trying it a few years ago, it’s still memorable as one of the best Japanese restaurants in Vancouver, but one that left me hungry even after spending $100+ person (it’s $160 now).
Due to the lack of value I never returned. However with the closure of indoor dining and launch of a new takeout menu, it’s interesting to see how a two-seating-per-night fixed-price Omakase restaurant adapts to today’s environment.
