| - Service was curt but at least they did not forget any of our order, which happens often at AYCE. They push several appetizers on their menu as "must try" - I tried to ask what was in the Pang and The Shit but not only did the waiter not answer me, he put them into our order and we were forced to eat (or pay extra for without eating) both apps which turned out to be all fake crab. I was just asking about them, NOT ordering them!
Nearly every roll has fake crab in it. Ordered the King Lobster roll because it did not list crab as an ingredient, but not only did it have crab, it did not have lobster. Even with asking for sauces on the side, the rolls were also all sweet so we gave up on them after a while and concentrated on nigiri.
Nigiri was okay though the rice ratio is off. A lot of people like it this way but it is far from authentic. With the long slice of fish leaving a tail that hangs off the little round ball of rice, they look like sperm. (I did notice that the more we ordered the bigger the balls of rice became, but that could have been a coincidence.) The salmon was the best fish they had. The super white tuna (ono) was both pretty good too. Unagi and yellowtail were fine, nothing special. Tuna and albacore were so-so. Ocean trout was stringy. We liked the two seared salmon items, but the garlic tuna and the 300 albacore tasted too similar. We were here for lunch so did not get the dinner-only salmon belly, oyster, uni or amaebi.
Mini udon was good - the broth was a little on the sweet side, but the noodles were nice and chewy, not overcooked at all.
Agedashi tofu was okay. Flavor profile of the sauce was off and the breading was a little too thick for agedashi.
I'm not usually much of a sweets person but the dessert may have been the best part. Both the green tea panna cotta and the black sesame blanc mange were very firm and not too sweet. Both had developed a skin on top, so if you like pudding skin you'll like this. I don't know if they changed the policy since that other guy's review where he was able to order unlimited desserts, but we were only allowed one per person.
Unlimited refills on $1.50 iced tea. They have regular and green, and both can be unsweetened.
I didn't see any signs about the free drink with review. All I saw was a sign saying they could only split bills into 6 checks per group.
The ladies' room was painted in fake Hello Kitties all over the walls. They were obviously amateur but not bad considering it was done freehand. And there was a lamp that looked like it was from Ikea - the nearest Ikea to Vegas is in West Covina, CA - my local back in LA!
They played a lot of Korean music videos, including 3 different Psy songs. They also played a Girls Generation song that sounded like they were saying "I've got a boy on my chin" - is this a song about having a dead conjoined fraternal twin fetus on your face?
They did let us order the AYCE lunch with 3 minutes to go before dinnertime. Can't say for sure I'll be back but it was worlds better than Sushi 21.
