| - Who needs Jiro when you have Hiro (et al.)!
This place is only around 3 months old, but I've probably been here at least 6 times. Each time makes me want to go back for more. The staff is incredibly friendly, helpful, and unpretentious - the hostesses and chef/owner easily remember me and make me feel right at home.
The food is very, very good - I would even say "oishii". Their cooked dishes and sushi are equally amazing. For the cooked dishes, I'm a big fan of the chicken karaage, salt and pepper shrimp, and the grilled black cod. With the sushi, I like to try 2 or 3 specials each time and then will get a couple rolls. The fish is definitely high quality and served perfectly.
The menu has a good mix of authentic Japanese and some new dishes with their own personal spin. Each dish is well-balanced and their menu and execution seems like they really spent time thinking through it.
The decor is very nice and clean, and I'm a big fan of the eclectic music (Johnny Cash, Thievery Corporation, etc all in one sitting).
Overall, I'm so happy that it's in Henderson - I'd still go frequently if it were in Vegas, but I'm thankful for its proximity. The food and the staff are the best and I can't wait to go back again.
