Sushi by MASA at Harrods

World-Class Sushi Dining Inside London's Iconic Harrods

Located within the legendary Harrods department store in Knightsbridge, Sushi by MASA at Harrods delivers an immersive, upscale Japanese dining experience just a short ride from many of London’s top concert halls. This boutique sushi counter is the first London venture by acclaimed chef Masa Takayama, renowned for his Michelin-starred restaurant in New York. Expect an intimate, minimalist setting with only a handful of premium seats, offering an exclusive omakase menu crafted with precision and artistry.

Why Concert-goers love it

While it’s not your typical pre-show grab-and-go spot, Sushi by MASA appeals to concert-goers seeking an elevated evening—especially those making a special night of it. The serene and refined atmosphere is a perfect contrast to the buzz of a live gig. Located in central London, it’s conveniently close to major venues via tube or taxi, and its efficient, curated omakase courses mean you can savour excellence without sacrificing punctuality. For those who want to start their night with something extraordinary, this is a worthy destination.

Who this Restaurant is great for

• Couples making a romantic weekend of it
• Solo travelers treating themselves to an unforgettable meal
• Fans wanting a quiet, premium experience before the show
• Foodies who appreciate culinary artistry as much as music

What People Say

Guests on TripAdvisor and OpenTable rave about the exceptional quality of the sushi, praising the attentive service and the tranquil, exclusive vibe. Diners describe it as a “bucket-list culinary experience” and applaud the fresh ingredients and flawless presentation. Many highlight how the chef’s personal attention makes the experience feel intimate and special.

Areas for Improvement

This is not a casual or budget-friendly venue—prices reflect the quality and exclusivity. Seating is extremely limited, so advance booking is essential. Also, given its upscale setting inside Harrods, it may not suit those looking for a fast or rowdy pre-concert bite.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking to elevate your concert night with exceptional Japanese cuisine in a serene, luxurious setting, Sushi by MASA at Harrods is a truly memorable start to the evening.
