| - Quite dissappointed in this place... I expected so much more because my brother and his gf kept talking about this place and liked it more than Island Sushi, which is still my FAVORITE sushi joint in Vegas right now. So we had a Friday night AYCE. It was a party of 6 and we got there around.. 7:30p.
It was scary quiet for a sushi place that is supposed to be amazing. I think at the time we got there, there was 2 other tables. During the time that we were there, there was about 3 more tables in and out. And with 2 servers, 2 chefs, and only 3 other tables besides ours (with only 2 ppl at each table), the service was very disappointing.
The sushi came out very slowly. They got our nigiri orders wrong. Our sushi rolls took about half an hour. The only food that arrived quickly was the deep fried soft shell crab (limit 1 per person) but that was really good! But each order is 2 small pieces. It seems like it was premade, but oh well. We also got the baked mussels, which were okay, definitely have had better.
They have a great selection of items of their menu, with amaebi, uni, lobster rolls, etc. But maybe the slow service made me not enjoy my food. And it wasn't "wow" or anything.
The fish is pretty fresh and the rolls were a decent size.
I believe this place used to be Yummy Sushi... but not sure. I used to LOVE yummy sushi for lunch. They made great smoothies. But Kan Pai didn't offer any.
So other items we ordered: Baked Lobster Roll (yummy! but limited orders), deep fried lobster roll, also yummy. Spider roll - not what we expected at all... it was wrapped in a green wrap thing rather than seaweed. Johnny roll - fresh fish wrapped in cucumber, i liked it. Cherry Blossom - not a roll, basically crab meat wrapped in avocado (also limited quantity), but nothing special. Also had some other rolls, everything was pretty fresh, but nothing that great. Full of sauce.
Amaebi - they deep fried the heads, which were yummy. Uni - the first thing that we ordered but didn't get until about 45minutes later, and they didn't give us a full order and when we asked, they said they ran out, but failed to mention that when they brought the order to our table. We also ordered 8 orders of sake with the uni and only received half the order. We ended up ordering so many things because we never received certain things and other ordered got f'd up. Overall, not a great experience.
The servers were nice, but barely spoke english. The sushi chefs were too busy drinking with the guest at the bar... the best thing about this place, unlimited dessert (tempura ice cream, green tea ice cream, and red bean ice cream.)
So its the average sushi place, that's it. It took me a full essay to say that. Sorry.
