Māsa

Māsa is a Michelin Plate restaurant at Dzirnavu iela 31 in the Centrs district of Riga, Latvia. The cooking mixes Mediterranean and Latvian traditions with Asian touches, and the menu is built around small plates and cocktails. The Michelin Plate recognises quality cooking without placing the restaurant in the Bib Gourmand or starred categories. The same Dzirnavu iela address is shared with Riviera, so visitors should look for the correct name.

The food is designed for sharing. Small plates and Mediterranean-Latvian mains are the signature offerings, and the combination of regional ingredients with Asian flavours is what distinguishes the menu from more traditional Riga restaurants. A meal typically costs about €30-50 per person, in the upper-middle bracket for the city. The cocktail list is a major part of the identity, and the beverage programme is described as cocktail-forward.

The dining room is stylish and cocktail-led, with a social atmosphere that suits evenings with friends or a date. There is no formal dress code, though the setting leans smart-casual. Noise levels are moderate to lively, especially later in the evening.

Reservations are recommended for dinner. The restaurant has no website listed in the available data, but the phone number is +371 29 155 695. Listed hours are daily from 12:00, closing at 22:00 Sunday to Wednesday and 23:00 Thursday to Saturday, and they should be confirmed before going. Because it opens at midday every day, it also works for a late lunch.

The Centrs location is a 10-15 minute walk from the Old Town. Māsa suits travellers who prefer to build a meal from several small dishes and pair them with cocktails, and who want something more contemporary than Latvian staples. Those who prefer a structured set menu may find a different restaurant better suited.
