| - Considering this is, literally, a minute from my boyfriend's house, I think this place is a goldmine.
To get foie gras and bone marrow right down the street is a dream come true.
No need to fight The Strip traffic for quality Strip food.
The chef is from Nobu and is very hospitable to clients right as you walk in. Reminds me of Chef John from Soho (right now the street).
As soon as I saw Japaneiro food on my IG feed, I gathered few friends to sample the food. The more the merrier and the more food we can sample.
I wish I wrote this as soon as I ate the food - we ordered SO much food and I wasn't even hungry - I could barely walk out of that place. I hope I'm able to write a decent review.
Beef gyoza - tasted fresh and homemade. I wish we ordered more (but, I'm glad I didn't cuz we have do much food coming!)
Pork belly - very clean, thick cuts or pork belly. Almost with they were caramelized like that of Goyemon.
Seared tuna steak - extremely beautiful plating. Perfectly seared.
Duo of uni and Ikura - pretty fresh uni and not too salty considering its topped with a large amount of ikura.
Tuna on lotus root - this was a different way of eating tuna. Reminiscent of Soho's tostadas but, I love lotus root so, I'm more biased on that.
Tacos - we got one of each taco. I love crunchy bite size mouthfuls :) I would recommend NO WASABI AIOLI tho. In my opinion, I think there was too much so, it over took the flavor of the fish.
Baked cod in lettuce wrap - can never go wrong with this. Marinated cod went well with the lettuce and perfect bites of rich flavor.
Bone marrow - dear lord, I could just eat that on rice but, it would be a crime against my body and healthy. So rich without the need of the salt and accoutrements it comes with.
Foie gras - it's duck liver amazing butteriness. I wish it did come with a baguette or something to spread on cuz it's texturally hard for me to eat on its own.
Lamb - three pieces of baby lamb (had to be baby cuz they were so small); perfect for eating like a caveman -- just hold onto the bone and chomp on! Do not expect large portions, as I did.
Chilean sea bass - fairly large piece of goodness. Perfectly cooked and not rubbery and/or over done with sauce.
Yakisoba - wasn't my favorite. I could've prolly been better without it and ordering something else (granted, we might have ordered the whole menu as it was).
Green tea creme brûlée + matcha tiramisu + green tea ice cream + banana lumpia was my favorite part of dinner. Not cuz I like desert but more so cuz they were all rich with flavor that wasn't sweet and very neutral which I like more often than not.
Service was very attentive. Too attentive at times but, they are a new restaurant trying to see what's a hit or miss with the patrons.
I, actually, had lunch here because of my love for bento boxes and their bentos are really the best deal for your buck!!!!
