First, I have to state the obvious...we are NOT in Little Tokyo (LA).
That aside, this is the best place I've found in Vegas for Shabu Shabu. An old co-worker of mine turned me on to it. She used to go there for their lunch specials, but it has mostly been a dinner spot for me.
Like all good Shabu Shabu places, you have to call ahead to make reservations. This is not only to ensure an open table, but to allow the staff the time to make sure you receive the best possible dining experience.
Every time I've gone we've had the same server, and she's the best. Treat her well and she'll make sure you have a good time.
I normally go with the King 9 (beef) in Shabu Shabu broth. The shoyu and sesame sauces are amazing. Especially the spicy shoyu. The veggies and noodles help to round out the meal. Any of the extras are good too.
Their beer and sake menu is decent, if not extensive. I've never been disappointed with what they have served. Though I, admittedly, am no expert....yet
