Absolutely terrific dining experience!
Raku is great from the moment you walk in. First you feel like you're in a 100% authentic Japanese restaurant. The servers, the cooks, the small intimate atmosphere. It all feels very different from most American restaurants and in a very good way.
The menu has a lot of options, but it's not overwhelming. Nothing I've ever chosen has been disappointing. And the prices range from incredibly affordable tapas (as low as $3) to very expensive premium saki.
The saki menu is very large and informative. It was very fun to read about the choices. In the end, I prefer the house-made hot saki. It takes them about 10-15min to prepare it for you, but it's super affordable and delicious!
The meatball and mushroom dish is a bit pricey, but it's my favorite (and I almost always dislike mushrooms). It's excellent.
The yellowtail sashimi, the chicken beast skewers, the pork cheek, the scallop...the list goes on and on. One of my top choices in Las Vegas. Superb!
