Marssa Restaurant Review

: This long, narrow room features colorful Moroccan hanging lamps and a view of the lake. The menu says the name means “by way of the sea,” but that’s only a partial description of what awaits diners. Chef Kazuki Tozawa, a native of Japan, offers sushi and sashimi, but there's also filet mignon and other meaty options such as Colorado lamb served au jus and with Yukon Gold mashed potatoes. Coriander pesto enlivens tender Wagyu Kobe beef satay, just as a splash of Thai spice and red chili pepper dressing perks up a soft shell crab. Separate sushi and sashimi menus offer a range from toro and hamachi to hirame and unagi, to a whole dinner, served omakase-style. Sweet temptations include a layered coconut cream cake topped with chocolate wafers and strawberries, and the chèvre tart, with its graham cracker crust filled with goat cheese custard and finished with brandy-infused cherries. Marssa offers about a dozen sakés, including an unfiltered bottle, with a flight available showcasing four different styles. Be sure to show up before sunset to take advantage of the panoramic view, thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows.
