| - I was looking for a new sushi place to try that was somewhat close to UNLV to spend my lunch break at today. After reading the Yelp reviews I decided to give this place a try. Upon coming in I had reservations, it was pretty empty for a lunch hour and from the look of the outside you don't know what to expect (definite hole in the wall).
I sat at the bar and began perusing the menu. Their menu is very organized, by baked rolls, fresh fish, tempura rolls, etc. which is nice when you know what kind of roll you're in the mood for. I'm a fan of the Loco Mexicano because it's spicy and I love spicy rolls. I had some nigiri and another roll, can't remember the name because it obviously wasn't something to write home about. All in all it was pretty good, I wouldn't say great.
The waitress was nice and friendly. My sushi chef's name was Mike and he was very nice and helpful. He offered to make me a special spicy roll but at that point I was so full I couldn't fathom trying one of his tasty creations. He did make me some salmon nigiri which was one of his creations which was delish. I wish they had a wider nigiri option though & some of the nigiri isn't even available unless it's dinner which I think is a bit ridiculous. They also put sauces on a lot of rolls which I was unaware of, I enjoy simple rolls where you can actually taste the fish. Next time I know to request no sauce.
All in all they're nice, friendly, helpful, and creative. Lunch price was approx $20 AYCE & dinner I think is around $24. So it's definitely worth the price you're paying. I'll definitely be back.
