May 15, 2024

“A delight for your senses!” 

“One-of-a-kind dining experience.” 

“Thoughtfully curated cuisine.” 

These are just a few descriptions of the unique dining experience at Karma Asian Fusion in Burlington, Massachusetts. This award-winning restaurant includes menu options such as sushi, sashimi, rice and noodles, traditional rolls, and a host of poultry, meat, seafood and vegetable options in a one-of-a-kind cross between Japanese flavors and the delicate sauces and styles of France.  

Karma Asian Fusion doesn’t just offer an exceptionally delicious dining experience, but also a fairytale story of a first-generation Chinese immigrant to achieve the American Dream in the journey of Head Chef, Master Sushi Chef and Owner, Iverson Guo.

In our Burlington Business Spotlight this month, let’s take a closer look at the innovative approach of Karma Asian Fusion cuisine and celebrate National Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month with a focus on the expertise of Iverson Guo. 

What Is Karma Asian Fusion? 

Karma Asian Fusion is not your average Asian cuisine establishment. In fact, it has been described as wholly unique in the flavor and offerings that blend the fresh flavors of Japanese cuisine with that of the sauces and style of France. Each dish holds the unique style of the chef. 

Enjoy a casual lunch with business partners, drinks with friends after work, dinner with the family or late-night cocktails at Karma’s lounge and bar. In every situation, you will be treated to warmth, welcoming and a menu of dishes that will have you returning again and again. You will feel like family each time you visit.

Who Is the Head Chef & Owner – Iverson Guo? 

The idea of the American Dream is that every American citizen has the opportunity to achieve success through hard work, determination and internal motivation. Head Chef, Master Sushi Chef and Owner of Karma Asian Fusion Iverson Guo is truly living the American Dream. During this month of celebration of people of Asian and Pacific Islander descent, it is our honor to spotlight his business success and positive impact on the business community of Burlington.

As a first-generation Chinese immigrant, Guo’s culinary expertise spans continents in a way that is both innovative and unforgettable. His commitment to authentic cuisine and dedication to a warm environment creates a welcoming atmosphere at Karma, something you don’t come across often. Guests are greeted as family and even the artwork is carefully chosen by Guo’s father. These elements make a visit to Karma Burlington transcendent beyond being a dining experience; it is also a cultural experience. The distinctive and creative menu, complemented by a selection of top-shelf Japanese whiskey, makes a trip to Karma a deliciously delightful one.

Guo prides himself on the sense of community that he has created in his dining establishment as many customers have gotten to know him and his family personally. This close familiarity makes visits to Karma feel more like a connection with the family. 

Guo recommends his dining experience “Omakase” which is Japanese for “entrust”, as it’s unlike any other and is carefully curated by the chef ahead of time. It can be paired with sake or wine tastings.
