| - Izakaya Go was a huge let down. I went for lunch the opening week and got the salmon teriyaki lunch. It came with your standard miso soup, salad, rice, soft tofu, and creamy potato side dish. The food itself was good and what you would expect from a Japanese restaurant, but the long wait killed it... not on it's own. The long wait to order, to get tea, for the food to come out, and then needing to ask for a spoon for the miso soup. I understand this was opening week and some kinks were probably being worked out so I decided I should come back during dinner to see the full tapas menu and give it another shot.
That day and the next they were doing 50% off the bill so the next day at dinner I recruited a friend to check out the tapas menu with me. It was more of the same regarding service, despite having more than one server interact with us throughout the experience. This happened the previous day. The other funny thing was the same primary server who tended to us at dinner was also the one who was taking care of me at lunch the previous day. I understand when it's stupid busy and a lot of people are coming through, you can't remember everyone, but she didn't recognize me from the previous day even though she invited me back to check out this particular menu, and the place was never packed the both times I happened to be in.
The dinner menu is large and easy to get lost in, we got the chicken yakisoba which was great, the halibut roll, a couple other dishes that weren't memorable, my friend wanted the bacon asparagus dish, which had a hair in it. We let the server know just so they could make the kitchen aware. They apologized and offered us ice cream. Overall the decor is very traditional and I can tell a lot of thought and care went into it. The staff is friendly and I feel like they're trying but there has to be some disconnect between the front and back of the house. The food was good but was coming out very slowly and sporadically, I think that's related to the previous statement. Oh and they have been picking the weirdest Pandora channels for music, it was mostly some super slow r&b and a couple Pandora ads. Some people might find it petty for me to mention it, but I noticed it and kind of found it entertaining. I'm not sure if or when I'll try this place again because I feel like I got burned back to back, especially with the other reviews being so enthusiastic about this place. Maybe I had bad luck both times? I'll give it some time before taking another shot here, there are so many options explore in Chinatown alone, and all around Vegas.
