I have seen Japonais in NY and Chicago but have always been with a crowd that isn't really down for Japanese cuisine.
Sort of exciting to be in Vegas and see one and check it out with someone who is down with Japanese food. We had to wait 20 minutes for our table so we sat at the bar and ordered a drink. My drink was yummy but The Mr. had to send his back and order something different because the bartender made it wrong. The feel of the lounge was pretty cool and I was looking forward to getting seated.
When we were seated, they brought us to a section that was more towards the casino and didn't have the lounge feel at all.
I did order the lotus blossom drink, their signature cocktail and yes it was pretty good. $14 good, ehhh maybe but only because I was excited after just seeing LOVE.
We decided to split a miso, a salmon roll and ahi tuna. A baby could have eaten our food and still would have been hungry.
Presentation was great, food tasted awesome...2 things wrong, where the hell was the food? and wait a minute you want how much money for 4 slivers of tuna? and you call that a roll?
