    My first time at this restaurant & if I lived closer I would definitely be making this a regular go to place. When I first arrived the parking lot was packed, & I was worried there may be a bit of a wait, especially since this was a spur of the moment stop so I didn't have a reservation. I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to get a seat immediately upon entering. My server was very friendly & went over the menu a bit with me since it was my first time here, & I decided on doing the AYCE dinner that way I could try a bit of everything. I got some hot green tea as well as a bottle of Peach Soju. I got a whole pot for the tea, & the soju was served in a small ice bucket, which I thought was cool because I love to keep mine chilled! I started off with a couple appetizers & some sashimi, the presentation was amazing & the freshness of the seafood delicious! My favorite was definitely the Blue Fin tuna, & apparently I wasn't the only fan because they had run out of almost all of it which was a little sad but just means I'll have to come again to try some more lol. The sushi rolls were fantastic & rolled perfectly, my eyes were definitely bigger than my stomach because I wanted to order 1 of every roll but after my fourth roll I could feel myself getting full & sadly had to stop there. I did order some fried oreos for dessert which just hit different when they are done in tempura batter, I love it! The only thing food wise that I could critique is definitely the miso soup, while it looks really good, it was bland & just tasted like warm water & tofu. The restaurant itself is styled really well, I remember when this location used to be a Red Lobster but looking at it now there's no way you could tell. Even though the booths are pretty close together they were surprisingly quite, I could barely hear anyone that was around me, it felt like I was in a coffee shop instead of an actual restaurant.

    I am picky about my sushi and sashimi, but we stumbled upon this place a few months ago and we have been very pleased with the quality of the fish. The all you can eat menu is great! A bit limited as far as the sushi goes but still lots to choose from. My only complaint is that they will make no substitutions or allow you to change the rolls in any way. You have to pay full price for the roll if that's what you want. If it was busy, I understand, but this is a rule no matter when you come. The food is fresh and flavorful. The building is beautiful. It used to be a red lobster from what I understand but they have remodeled and it is very oriental boho! Beautiful! The outdoor seating is also a vibe. We've always had very friendly staff and the food comes out so fast!!

    AYCE Dinner
    Micaela R.

    My family and I always go to Sushi Masa for lunch and sometimes dinner. We usually get the AYCE and they offer such a great variety even for the picky eaters (especially their dinner menu). The sashimi tastes fresh and the flavors for the rolls and appetizers are unique and tasty. They're usually pretty fast about bringing out the food and come by to check in often. I especially love the variety of the menu; they have lots of hand rolls, sashimi, sushi, specialty rolls, grill items (noodles and tempura), and soups/salads. Definitely a great AYCE spot that beats out a lot of the other sushi AYCE places in Tampa.

    Bit on the pricier side of endless sushi but the service was super fast and friendly and the options were delicious1 The shaggy dog sounded good but we didn't enjoy that one as much as we thought we would. Dragon roll and the hand rolls I would highly recommend! Fried Oreos are always a good sweet treat too!

    Sushi nigiri - salmon, big eye tuna, white fish, white tuna, shrimp and eel.

    About 3.5 stars for AYCE sushi in Tampa Bay Area. I am glad there is AYCE sushi near me. But the standard is just middle of the pack. One thing for sure they make it right here is the wait for sushi is very short after order. This sushi place is not cheap for the price. Yes they do have everything but very normal in the menu. Many imitation crab meat sushi roll. Good vegetarian selection. We like the salmon skin salad, dragonfly roll and big eye tuna nigiri. I also like the shrimp teriyaki a la cart. That very much I can recommend for the whole menu. Overall service is excellent. Food needs to be more creative. That includes the flavor.

    EXCELLENT ayce sushi. I feel like most ayce sushi spots are not the greatest quality, and as a real sushi lover (no California rolls or cream cheese around here), I actually love this place. The small plates/apps and desserts were also great. The miso cod was a hit at our table. Definitely worth the price. I would go here all the time if it wasn't so far Service was also amazing! Our waitress was so funny and kind.

    Sashimi appetizer for $26. Amazingly fresh and huge portions. We had this for lunch.

    Very good fresh seafood. The ambience is cozy with lots of booths. Service was excellent at lunch time. Dinner time can get very busy and service is a little slower. Sashimi very fresh. Rolls good as well.

    I've been wanting to check and this place and it was worth the wait. The food was outstanding. Our server was very friendly knowledgeable and helpful. The interior is get and wonderfully designed. The hostess was nice and welcoming. I wish I could have taken more pictures but I ate the food to fast... this is a must try.

    So nice to have this instead of an abandoned Red Lobster! The food was incredible!

    I had the sushi and fried Oreos for dessert!!! I got togo and the person was very nice! I really like what they did inside! You would never know it used to be a red lobster!

    This new location is great! The food is really good, and we went for the endless experience, it's great your whole table doesn't have to do it! The hibachi there tastes so good! The experience inside is such a great vibe and clean! The service is alright, I wish our server was quicker to ensuring we had everything we wanted for the endless experience, so it was frustrating at times with her. Otherwise we have already been back for the food!

    This place is wonderful for all you can eat sushi! We had a fantastic meal. The sashimi was fresh. They had a great selection of cooked and raw seafood. Fresh sashimi. The service was excellent. Reasonable food prices and drink prices. And it was super cute inside- great ambiance. Highly recommend. One of the best local places for all-you-can-eat sushi!

    Torch salmon nigiri
    Melinda N.

    Ordered all the sashimis available (see pics). The scallop was not fresh but the other seafood was not bad. It's interesting that the menu says sashimi or sushi but I think it's mid-labeled and should say "sashimi or nigiri." The torched salmon nigiri was my favorite. Eel was also pretty good. The cold tastings were pretty tasty, esp the tuna kurakka. The teriyaki steak was too dry. I don't recommend the Hokkaido roll but I didn't try the other rolls since we mostly wanted to try the sashimi. The edamame didn't blow my mind and I'm not sure I would recommend ordering this. Yakisoba is supposed to be dry but it's was too saucy. I wish they told us about the weekly special menu. We find out after we paid that it was part of the buffet (we saw the table next to use order items from that menu.) We tried all the desserts because they seemed interesting. Turns out I don't really like fried desserts. The ice cream didn't have the authentic matcha or red bean flavor, was too sweet. On the weekends, they charge dinner prices for lunchtime. The table wasn't clean when the servers seated us. (There was a piece of hair underneath the soy sauce bottle.) Service was fast and place was family-friendly and date-friendly.

    Cucumber salad
    Tijah M.

    Absolutely amazing service by the bartender who also made the fantastic cocktails during our visit. The restaurant had no wait when we went. We were immediately sat and greeted by a friendly host. The food was phenomenal and definitely worth the price for the all you can eat. Prepared to feel super full and satisfied. I love this concept because you can go with a group of friends and try everything that your heart desires and get repeats of your favorites. Don't let the high volume of food fool you though, this does NOT mean they compromise the quality of their food- it's amazing!! 10/10 recommend you go with a group of friends or even on a fun date night.

    I am so glad I came here again. I visited a Sunday evening. It was a bit crowded, but a sign said I…read morecould sit myself anywhere. So I sat in the bar. A bartender greeted me and gave me water. For my drink, I took the chocolate old fashioned (13 dollars). It was strong enough and chocolatly to enjoy. For my main plate, I chose the chicken wings (10 for 17 dollars), half fat rabbit sauce (quite garlicky) and other half siracha. While the wings were not breaded, they were still fried. It was definitely crispy, but still meaty and tender. The sauces were flavorful, and the siracha had the right amount of heat. The ranch dressing was homemade and so good, I ended up drinking it. There could have been more celery, but it was fresh and crispy. They only had one dessert, and unfortunately it wasn't homemade, so I passed. My bartender was friendly, but busy. She had a helper, but lots of patrons to serve. Yet, she was still very nice and helpful when needed. The vibe is social and casual. I would have thought they would have more USF students, but mostly locals who are enjoying a good atmosphere. Outdoor seating is available as well, and it looks like you can bring your pooch too. When it was time to check out and pay, I noticed they forgot to charge me for my drink. When I mentioned that, they told me not to worry about it. It was a very nice gesture from them. Parking here is easy as it is located in the Publix complex. There is also a Don Julio's and Bundt Cakes nearby for dessert too. The Fat Rabbit pub provides great casual bar food in a social atmosphere. The indoor dining is large enough to feel comfortable, and outdoor seating is also there if you want to enjoy with your dog. I am glad I chose this place again as it was near my hotel. Definitely coming back for more great bar food at reasonable prices. Overall: A

    First of all, the wings here are absolutely amazing. They were flavorful, meaty and fried post…read moreright. The service is great and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was clean and they have options for catering and can hold large parties if interested. They have been around for a while and are also a brewery so if you're looking for a nice spot, this is certainly a great option to try out!
