Masa

Columbus Circle · New York

Masa Takayama's sushi counter, among the most exclusive tables in America.

Before you go

Book early

Three-star tables often release reservations 30 to 90 days ahead and fill within hours. Set a reminder, or ask your hotel concierge.

Dress the room

Smart is the rule; a jacket is expected in most palace-hotel dining rooms, and some still require a tie.

Tell them in advance

Allergies, dislikes and celebrations are best mentioned when booking, not at the table.

Lunch is the secret

Many starred kitchens serve a shorter lunch menu at a fraction of the dinner price, with the same hands at the stove.
