  • I think it says a lot when a restaurant doesn't have regulars or a Duke/Dutchess on Yelp. I can see why. My wife and I dined at barMASA on New Year's Eve. We had a wonderful private bubbly and cheese planned for later in our room at Vdara, so we aimed for a light supper. The ambiance was nice. Lots of exposed concrete and 60 foot ceilings made it feel industrial and a tad uninviting. The air temperature was cool making us not want to shed our outer layers. I had reviewed the vast menu several times and tried to get a table several times and has always been booked. I equated that to exciting and popular, and so my expectations were 5 out of 5. We ordered a miso soup to start, the king crab California rolls x2, Sashimi sampler (a $140 item) and a soy based crème brulée. I would definately say the food was good. Absolutely the best Miso I have had in years and the brulée was a unique and delightful experience. I really struggled with a limited menu and ending up with a $300 bill for what didn't amount to a full course meal. Overall on food I would say a 4 out of 5. When it comes to the service. .. I have to comment on three things : first, the hostesses. .. the night before I tried to get in by myself... after seeing the lay of the land on my reserved visit, I realized that the two empty tables I saw were in fact open tables and not just a waiting area... possibly had resos but the attitude and way the hostess conveyed the 90 minute wait, left feeling like a dirt bag for even asking. Second, the overall observation was that the majority of the waitstaff wasn't really the right mix of talent for a place trying to be upscale Japanese. I had 2 questions about ingredients (ie variety of mushrooms in the miso soup), and both questions resulted with a blank stare and a trip to the kitchen for an answer. Seemed to lack a finesse you would expect at a place like this. Felt like the buffet staff were on rotation that night. Lastly, the assistant servers were über gungho and eager to please. Worked their tables with hussle and were very passionate about your satisfaction . Service I would rate a 2 ot of 5. Overall, for me a 2 out of 5, am very disappointed in my experiences and the low bang for my buck. I won't be back to barMASA.
