What a FIND! Thanks to our daughter-in-law's SISTER for the recommendation. Intimate atmosphere and dedicated service make this place a MUST. The menu is extensive and heavy! Our server was knowledgeable about the details and ultra patient with this novice. From gently pointing out details regarding hot sake to pointing out his favorites on the menu - he's a gem! Our plates were beautifully laid out and the dish ware exquisite. I failed to get a photo, but as I know I will be returning, I'll post pics next visit! Oh - the food?!? OUTSTANDING!!! For my taste, I would recommend a few veggies in the delicious fried rice. Mostly for a splash of color. read more

Masabi has become a regular spot for my friend and me. It's a great sushi spot if you're looking for a typical Midwest, strip-mall sushi place. It's not where I'd go if you're looking for authentic Japanese or for a fancier date night, but it does the job for a simple week-night dinner. Of note, their miso soup is really nice-- well-flavored-- and they're consistent with their quality. Go check 'em out! read more

This was my first time dining here after a friend highly recommended their sushi and hibachi. The restaurant has a very small, low-key, and intimate feel to it, which ended up being perfect for us since we had my friend's child with us. It felt cozy and welcoming rather than loud and hectic. Even though the space is small, there was a good mix of people -- quite a few larger groups dining together as well as some couples on dates. ​I started with the House Salad with ginger dressing, and also tried the Squid Salad. Unfortunately, the Squid Salad wasn't for me; it had a bit of an odd taste and didn't seem as fresh as the other items. However, the sushi more than made up for it! I ordered the OMG Roll, plus another roll that I can't quite remember the name of -- it was served on top of foil and was delicious. Both sushi rolls were absolutely amazing, fresh, and flavorful! My friend went with the Chicken Teriyaki Entree; the chicken tasted okay, though the sushi was definitely the star of the show. ​What really stood out was the service. The staff members were incredibly kind and patient. My friend's child was acting up and whining quite a bit, but the servers were very understanding and made us feel comfortable despite the fuss. If you're looking for a quiet spot with great sushi and a family-friendly staff, this is a great choice! read more

Wow I was really impressed with the sushi here!! For this area, it was actually really good. The sushi tasted fresh and the flavors were great . Portions were nice too. The menu is huge and even has udon and other non sushi options. I also would check out the chef special. The one we had was amazing! We also got the seaweed salad which I forgot to take a photo of but that portion is huge. Would definitely be enough as an app for four people. Really yummy as well. The cucumber really accents the seaweed! Cute little spot. There's actually a decent amount of seating and you can see some of the chefs working as well. ‍ Definitely am coming back here!! Yum!!! read more

To be honest, I think it's typical mediocre Midwestern sushi. Nothing was awful, nothing was great. I sat at the sushi bar, the staff did not acknowledge me. I ordered the chirashi bowl, which was served on a plate, and was basically just a sashimi combo with a big lump of rice with barely any seasoning on it. The quality of the fish was mediocre, and all the fish was cold - not served at room temperature as traditional sushi is served. It came with the soup or salad, I opted for salad, and the dressing was Ranch... Which just feels so American and not authentically Japanese at all. I was hoping for the ginger dressing. I just don't think the food here is inspired or unique, there are definitely better sushi places in our metro. read more

Gonna be a regular. Great food, fast service and great selections. Just a little hole in the wall.

The atmosphere here has a massive identity crisis; eating sushi while "Chuck Nasty" and Mötley Crüe blast on the radio is just a bizarre vibe shift. The food itself was decent, but it had its flaws. While the sushi was good, it came with way too much sauce, which completely drowned out the fish. On the bright side, the spicy crab salad tasted great, though the portion was pretty small. I'd give this place another chance, but next time it will be carry-out only. read more

Super good. Very busy, but they worked us in well. Sushi was the best, service was great. Highly recommend Masabi

Food was very good. I had wow sushi. It was so delicious that I ordered another one to go. I also ordered a combo fried rice to go. I also ate a piece California and a piece of Philadelphia roll. All the good was delicious. I had hot sake which was also delicious. The service was also excellent. I will definitely come back in the future. read more

This place is my husband and I's guilty pleasure! It's sooo good and always fresh! I refuse to get my sushi or hibachi from anywhere else

Crab Sticks are not Sashimi. This place had many good reviews and I noticed it in the shopping center while I was there on another errand. I ordered the Sashimi lunch, which was to consist of eight pieces selected by the chef. I like to order a combination and let the staff choose. Sometimes there is a pleasant surprise. Not today. Two crab sticks were 1/4 of my Sashimi lunch. Either charge another couple bucks and make it all Sashimi, or charge a dollar less and make it six pieces. read more

I had the salmon hibachi platter with miso soup and fried rice, as well as tempura calamari for an appetizer. All was phenomenal! The service was excellent and attentive. It was a quiet environment and felt very homey. Highly recommend! read more

Best yaki udon I have ever had! I find myself craving this restaurant all the time. Wish I lived closer so I could frequent more often

Love the hibachi!!! Went for a birthday treat and my exiled family attended. Everyone was happy and left with a full belly.

Loved the Jalapeño appetizer! The Tiger Roll was delicious. Small little place to eat in for a little date night. Staff was friendly and helpful with menu recommendations! read more

Far and away the best sushi we've found in the area. Friendly service too. When we moved here from California we thought we'd be out of lunch when it comes to sushi, so glad we found this place! read more

I had the sashimi and the pieces were so thin there was hardly anything to them. Especially considering how much they charge for it. I don't mind spending a lot of money for quality food and I understand that supplies are inflated now but this was ridiculous. Also had miso soup and a dinner salad. They both tasted like bad water. They need to make the soup and wash the lettuce in filtered water or something. Very off putting taste. I won't be returning and I certainly wouldn't recommend them. read more

The hidden gem of the northland by far the best quality food and sushi in the area. Everything on the menu is amazing. No hibachi place aroud the area touches their entrees. We're frequent visitors and that isn't stopping. read more

We were excited about finding a sushi place to closer to our home. The server was nice and the rolls came out quickly and fresh but the flavors were lacking. Not trying to sound snobbish, but the quality was not what we are accustomed to eating. Sorry, not throwing shade, just being honest. #MyTwoCents read more

The food is delicious. Your wallet will hurt after you leave though. I eat a lot of food & would rather have sushi elsewhere for the price!

Masabi is only 3.5 miles from our house so very convenient. They have better quality of sashimi (carving if raw fish) than all but one in the KC Northland. We always get hamachi sashimi (yellow tail tuna), sake sashimi (raw salmon), maguro sashimi (red tuna) plus edamame (steamed beans) and 1-2 maki rolls (favorites are spider roll or rainbow roll but also sometimes get a negihamichi roll or TC roll). Depending on the weather and mood, we also occasionally get miso soup or seaweed salad. Good selection of Asian beers and good cold dry sake. Very efficient and nice staff. Eat in our take out, good choice here. read more

A friend took me here for dinner. I love good sushi and usually just go to my favorite one but this little place really surprised me. Very friendly service, waitress checked on us several times. Our orders came out surprisingly quick & it was fresh and well put together, not rushed or falling apart. Great freshness to the sushi and great taste. It's a small dine in but don't let that detour you. My friend has been going here over five (5) years and says he has never received a bad experience. read more

I really love going her for sushi. They have rolls that are different from other places and the portions are generous without being to pricey. I went with 5 other co workers on a Friday for lunch. No wait to be seated send waitress was very attentive. Have been here several times without issue and food is always fresh. read more

Masabi is a family owned business. They're very nice, all the food has been spectacular when I everyone there and they are very quick on their service. Their serving sizes are not the largest, but not the smallest either. I have never had a problem getting in or had to wait and there's never a problem with parking. My only ask of them would be to have a larger eel sushi dragon roll. read more

The sushi place in Liberty. Been several times. Service always attentive. Clean and nice inside. Happy to support.

Yummy! Went here for my brothers birthday and we were very satisfied with our meal. I'm not usually one for Asian food, but this really hit the spot. Great service, food, and music! Good portion size for what you pay for. Would come again. read more

Hands down the best Sushi in the Northland. You'd never think it with it being in a strip mall, but my wife and I tried it on recommendation of our friends and I'll be damned if they weren't right. I'd give them 20 stars if I could. read more

The food is excellent here, I personally LOVE their sushi. You cannot go wrong with any of their rolls. But my husband tends to choose the hibachi and is never disappointed; either am I when I snag a bite from his plate ;) DO NOT FORGET TO GET THEIR FRIED RICE!!

This is one of my two gotos in the Northland. It's a small location, so I recommend getting it to go. I've never had a bad roll on the menu and the team there is extremely fast and courteous. They also don't look at me funny when I get four rolls but only ask for one set of chopsticks... read more

I have eaten here a handful of times and always been pleased. Last week, I ordered a large order of takeout with sushi and various salads. Everything was fresh, beautiful, and delicious. They had everything packed up within the estimated timeframe, with sauces, chopsticks, and napkins all ready to go. I can now recommend dining in, or take-away! read more

This place is so great fir take out or dine in. I've been there a few times now and have yet to be disappointed. They're sushi is so good!

It's a small place, but it's cozy and intimate, which is great for a date night. I've been looking for a good sushi place in northern KC, and this is definitely it! Go check them out!! read more

So far one of the best quality sushi places in Kansas City Missouri. Great customer service.

We stopped here for dinner on a Friday night and we're surprised how little people there were in the restaurant. All of the workers were very friendly and gave us quick service - almost too quick. My wife and I felt a little rushed as the waiter quickly jumped on any dishes we finished with. It sounds weird to give 4/5 stars because the waiter was TOO fast with clearing the table, but that is what it has come to. Hope our next visit feels a bit more relaxed. Setting was small and somewhat intimate. It is a fairly small restaurant, but seats a decent amount of people. The food was on point and very delicious! We had the Miso Soup, Cali Roll, Philadelphia Roll and BMW Roll. All were excellent! We live in California, but would come here again next time we visit! read more
