| - I've literally eaten the entire menu. This is my favorite place in Vegas. I have gone very often since this place has opened. There are so many foods that I will only eat here. As for people who don't understand why some of the plates are so small, I feel that we need to keep in what this restaurant is know that it is possible to get complete full there and not break the bank. To keep this review from being incredibly log with detailing out each dish I've had and what it is and what I think. I'll just hit the highlights.
-Japanese Teramoto Scallop: Get this one. Just cough up the extra few bucks for the this one instead of the Hokkaido scallop. Yes, you can taste the difference. Get a side of rice. Dump the left over sauce on the rice. Smile and enjoy your life.
-Rock Shrimp: This has actually gotten smaller from the original portion size back when he first opened. I'm fine with that. It was very large for an appetizer; now, it seems about right.
-Bone Marrow Filet: The dish that holds the distinction as something that made me stop and phone a friend to tell them how good it is. It was originally on the specials board. Rightfully so, it has made it to the actual menu. The new bone in filet is fantastic too! Very good quality. I'm just a bit of a steak snob, so I will say there is better in Vegas. For the price, it is a stand out.
-Scallop Foie Gras: It's the perfect bite to me. Point blank. Period.
-French Escargot: If you've never had one, this is a great place and price to try one. I've had better in other places in town, but it is still solid here.
-Black Cod Butter Lettuce: Solid item. Crazy good for a happy hour dish.
-Gyoza: On the menu is the black Angus beef which is fantastic. I believe there was a kobe beef one on the specials board a few year ago. Mind blowing!
-Yakisoba: It's really good here if you are trying to fill up and are a fried noodle kind of person.
-Tasting menus: I think there has been a 10, 5, and now 7. If you want to check this place out, grab a friend and try this. Nigerian prawn and scallop ceviche typically make this menu. Both are solid. The marrow filet is also usually on here.
Other notes: If you are fan of Japanese beers, there is a decent selection here of stuff you would actually want to drink that is not widely available in town. I've done the sake flight. It was good, but I'm not a connoisseur. I feel like my opinion would be uninformed at best. The sparkling jelly sake was interesting in a good way. Also know the special board can change often. The hairy crab 3 ways is a great one if available.
