Masa Garden in Bangkok
Sukiyaki, known as a traditional Japanese hot pot dish, has garnered popularity as a nice choice for group dining among urban residents. It’s a perfect friday night meal with friends. This culinary experience not only fills our appetites but also fosters a sense of togetherness. Gathering around the sukiyaki pot encourages lively conversations and interactions among friends and family members.
If you’re looking for a Japanese hot pot eatery with relaxing Japanese vibes and mouth-watering beef items to enjoy with buddies, take a look at Masa Garden – a Kansai-style sukiyaki restaurant near BTS Phrom Phong.

Masa Garden offers a Kansai-style sukiyaki which features a slightly sweeter and lighter broth, compared to the more common Toyko-style sukiyaki. In the Kansai-style sukiyaki game, they’re all about letting those natural flavours of the ingredients shine. And that broth? Well, it’s usually whipped up with soy sauce, sugar, and mirin.

What’s impressive is the feeling you get as soon as you step in. The place is surrounded by greenery and its little garden reminds us of a Japanese countryside.
The light-brown diner itself kind of gives off the vibes of a modern Japanese house, but there’s still a touch of traditional visuals mixed in.

Eyeing around the interior, you’ll see that the restaurant is all decked out in wood and it is designed Japanese style. But know what the real attention-grabber is? It’s a mini bamboo garden right smack in the middle.
Savour its Wagyu set from ฿900
Made with soy sauce, sake, and mirin, Kansai-style broth exudes a delicate and refined sweet flavours. Is it true? Come and try it out yourself.
Other than its Kansai-style sukiyaki, it also offers shabu-shabu and sumibiyaki, grilling food over charcoal method. However, coming for the first time, we recommend going for its sukiyaki as it’s the signature of this restaurant.
Don’t miss their beef options as they’re the highlight of the place. If you are a passionate Wagyu eater, you can enjoy its Wagyu Beef A4 at ฿900 (~USD25.74), high-quality beef that comes with intense marbling, exceptional tenderness, and rich flavour.
