| - So I was here on a business trip and the regional team in Vegas asked me what I wanted to eat.
Vegas buffets were out since I'm trying not to eat my weight in food and all I really wanted was some yummy sushi. So while they briefly considered taking me to a sushi buffet where I could also eat my weight in food, I'm glad they decided to take me to Ichiza instead.
Now, I was a little skeptical. Even though I wanted sushi, sometimes I know that sushi in a landlocked state can be...questionable. But this is Vegas, and goodness it was good!
SO! Let's start off with the fish quality. It was absolutely delectable! I know places along the coast that don't have fish as fresh as Ichiza. The sashimi was delicious and the couple of sushi rolls that we did have were creative and had great flavor. I'm not sure what the name of the roll we got was, but it was on the wall. It was something with eel and a fried sweet potato and a California roll. Sounds a bit odd, but really it went together really well. The spciy tuna roll was not particularly spicy, which is a good thing for me since I can't handle the heat.
We also got the shrimp fried rice and that stuff is addicting. I mean, I was trying to stay away from it but I kept winding up with more on my plate.
The beef tataki in ponzu sauce was great as well, but not exciting enough to write home about since we have similar quality things back home.
This place gets packed so get there early, but when I'm in town and want sushi, I'm definitely coming back here.
