| - Naked Fish is one of the top sushi restaurants in the SW part of Las Vegas, based on the Yelp reviews and recommendations from fellow foodie friends. I recently went to check out their food during their late night Happy Hour (starts at 10pm until they close). And when I arrived just after 10 pm on a Wednesday night, the restaurant was at packed. The wait was estimated at 5 minutes for the sushi bar, in reality it was actually longer, but I thought it was worth it.
Lobster Roll is the feature HH roll of the week, so I gave that a try, along with Tiger Roll, 911 Roll, and Garlic JP Lasagna Roll. The Lobster Roll was a little disappointing for me, as what I had imagined from reading the description and the actual roll that was served was not the same. I was thinking fresh lobster, but all the lobster are tempura fried. The Tiger Roll and 911 Roll are my two favorite, and if I really have to be picky, I would say that the chefs may go a little crazy saucing the plate with eel sauce. The Garlic JP Lasagna Roll was good, and was not served drowning in broiled mayo like at some lesser sushi restaurants in town.
Service was good, and I didn't have to ask for refills in spite of how busy the restaurant was.
Anyway, Naked Fish is recommended overall as a restaurant. As far as their HH menu, it is basically $2 off their selection of rolls, so if you want nigiri as part of the HH discount, there are other places to try if that is a deal breaker.
