| - Conveyor belt sushi finally hit Las Vegas! I've been itching to experience revolving sushi and I'm so thankful it finally arrived in the Valley!
The concept is pretty simple. There is a conveyor belt full of different kinds of sushi (with labels right before the plates) where you can pick up the food you desire. From what I've seen, most of the plates come with 1-4 pieces. Do also note that desserts are not available to pick up on the conveyor belts. I learned that the conveyor belt actually has sensors on it that will alert the staff if the sushi has been there for more than 30 minutes so it can be replaced with fresh sushi, which settles my original apprehension of the safety of the food revolving around the restaurant for hours. At the end of your meal, the servers count how many plates you have on your table and add it to your bill since it is not automatically counted. Since I had come a little later in the evening (around midnight on a Thursday), there wasn't much going around the conveyor belt. Because of this, we had to get our food through the ordering system on the tablet.
Each table gets a tablet with the menu to choose from. These items include nigiri sushi, specialty rolls, tempura, ramen, appetizers, and dessert. The menu is not extensive, but it surely is enough. Prices are pretty reasonable. It is $2.50 for two pieces of nigiri (1 piece for some choices such as toro, ama-ebi, and bluefin tuna), a little under $10 for speciality rolls, etc.
After selecting the items you want to order, you place your order and wait for the chefs to make your dishes. It took about 10 minutes for the chefs to complete each of my orders. You receive your order from the kitchen via an electronic track on top of the conveyor belt. A machine travels to your table, lights up and plays a prerecorded message signaling you to pick up your food, and returns back to the kitchen.
Sushi quality was pretty good and tasted fresh. It is comparable to most of AYCE sushi spots across town. I was also able to try the salmon tacos and enjoyed them. The crunchy wonton shells were a great contrast compared to the fish.
Service was very limited. I did not interact with any staff aside from getting seated, introducing us to the ordering system, the occasional drink refill/plate clean-up, and receiving the bill when prompted on the ordering system. However, the interactions I had were all positive.
Overall, the price is competitive to the AYCE sushi prices around town for a higher quality without the inherent pressure to stuff my face with food to get my money's worth. I would warn you to be cautious if you are a big eater, though. Prices can add up fast if you don't pay attention! For anyone who hasn't experienced conveyor belt sushi, I would recommend trying this place out! Being the only one of its kind in Las Vegas, this place will catch a lot of attention soon!
