This is a nice quiet place for a meal. A great location for pre-theater dinner at the shaw. The only negative thing about this place is the navigation of the stairs to enter the place. It is not wheel chair accessible.

My four American guests, who were visiting Niagara-on-the-Lake and the Shaw Festival for the very first time, were impressed by the variety of offerings and the beautifully prepared, extraordinarily tasty, and artfully presented entrees at Masaki Sushi. Thank you for giving them such a delicious introduction. We'll all be back!

Masaki Sushi is easily one of the best sushi restaurants I’ve ever experienced. All of the food is fresh and presented with an artistic flare that doesn’t diminish quantity - a ridiculous issue at many supposed upscale restaurants. It’s obviously run by a great restaurateur who manages an equally great staff.

Great food and good service. The tuna tartare and the sashimi were particularly good. The ambience was lacking -- very drab and basic decor. Given the price point I would prefer a better atmosphere. However, the food was good enough that I will probably go back.

It’s been at least 10 years from our last visit. The restaurant has been renovated with a new menu. We had the sushi and sashimi dinner for two which included the miso soup, both the sushi and the sashimi were fresh and well prepared. The service was excellent and attentive. We’ll be back for sure.

Best Japanese/Sushi restaurant in Niagara for sure. It is high end though, so keep in mind it's not the cheapest option, but 100% worth the price. Every dish is perfect, from presentation to taste, and the flavours are out of this world. Get the Epi Mayo if you love shrimp! The miso alone tells you the caliber of this restaurant, so simple so subtle yet so delicious. At most sushi the miso is an after thought, just salty water, but the care and dedication Misaki has for its food really shines with this simple dish. Highly recommend for a special occasion like an anniversary or birthday as it is quite expensive so it's a nice treat once in a while.

One of the best meals we’ve had in Canada. Terrific food and so nice to get away from the standard “and fries” menus which seem to predominate. It so reminded us of out time in Japan

This restaurant is a gem! The food was exceptional and staff were warm and wonderful. Items available on this menu we’ve never seen anywhere else. We got to try the delectable A5 wagyu beef which we are all still talking about. The sushi and sashimi platter was prepared to perfection and included rare tastes directly from Japan. The sake flights were well balanced and high quality. Couldn’t recommend more!

Highly recommend , excellent sushi that is the highest of quantity. Haniah was an outstanding server and she spent the time to make sure we order exactly what we wanted. My wife is gluten free and they had a special menu just for gluten free people. We sample five different sake before we found the one we wanted and they had no problem with us sampling that many. The restaurant goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy. If you like sushi you owe it to yourself to try this wonderful Restaurant. We can’t wait to go back again. We also found the prices to be very reasonable.

I had an incredible experience at Masaki. Amazing location in the beautiful Niagara-on-the-Lake. Oustanding food and perfect ambiance (music kept low enough that we could converse and hear each other easily). I need to take a moment to acknowledge the UNBELIEVABLE service at Masaki. I am gluten-free celiac, and the staff's consideration and attention to detail when it came to advising me on menu options and avoiding cross-contamination blew me away! I can't wait to go back for more!

I don’t expect to have a 12pc sushi course with only 4kind of fish…this is quite disappointing…my friend is having sushi lunch with 6pc of sushi and 6pc California roll. The 6pc of sushi is with 3kind of fish. I don’t think this is a normal performance for a famous Japanese restaurant.

Wonderful restaurants. Service was outstanding - friendly, knowledgeable, helpful. The food was consistently excellent, from appetizers (tuna tartar and agedashi tofu), to the black cod, and rolls (spicy tuna and salmon avocado). We also had the sake flight (platinum) - not only was it good, but the explanations of each (both in writing and orally) very helpful. A stop at Masaki if in NOTL is well worth it. We look forward to our next visit.

This was at a basement unit . Regular table at a basement corner background painted each table between has no privacy Prime shasimi was 95 for 21 piece . Nothing special neither fresh especially the 3 piece regular Salom the all you can eat sushi is more fresh The arugi sushi 49 bucks was horrible one of them I think sushi meat over cooked and has a bad flavor Server has a judgement eye but was ok Everything is way too oily . I came once two year ago thought was winter shouldn’t be picky but won’t try anymore
