About
On Mass Ave, at the end under Michael Andretti's place, FortyFive Degrees blends sushi, Mediterranean/Cajun dishes, and a swank club vibe. The decor is eclectic: everything is turned to a 45-degree angle, with ice blue and gray tones but diner-like booths. It's a mixed crowd spot with live entertainment.
The menu spans Asian, Italian, seafood, and sushi. Their spicy tuna is fresh, and prawns on crostini with portabella mushrooms in Cajun sauce are worth trying. You'll often find it quiet, not packed. Check hours before heading over.

“Sad”
I've hardly ever seen more than a few customers here. It tries to be trendy and cool, but it ends up just feeling dull and depressing.

“3 - 4 out of 5 stars”
This place blends a sushi bar with a Mediterranean and Cajun restaurant and a stylish downtown club. Being at the end of Mass Ave, underneath Michael Andretti's place, says a lot about it. I always order spicy tuna to judge a sushi spot's quality. I was impressed—it was fresh. I also had prawns on crostini with portabella mushrooms in a Cajun sauce that could have been spicier, but the shrimp was good. The decor is a bit odd: everything is angled at 45 degrees, with ice blue and gray colors, but some booths have a diner look. It's pretty eclectic.
