After visiting Katsuya in Hollywood a couple of years ago, which was fabulous, we thought we would come to the Vegas restaurant at SLS Hotel and Casino.
We started with Salmon Sashimi, Gyoza and the Creamy rock Shrimp, Salmon Sashimi with Caviar followed by Wagyu Fried rice.
The shrimp was my favourite at Hollywood, but unfortunately there was no love in this. There was no crisp to it and no spice.
The Gyoza impressed me with the cute edible crunchy case over it..
Sashimi with caviar was a refreshing change to the normal sushi Maki.
Wagyu fried rice has been given great reviews by a lot of people.
Dont get me wrong, it was nice.. Wagyu is always good.. but I found the overall dish to oily and I was actually quite disapointed.
My overall experience was ok.. the server was lovely.
The wine list needs to be looked into.... I know certain wines from New Zealand and they are more than 500% over cost price. I never like this when I see it in menus and you have to pay $60 for a $8 bottle of wine.
So, finally, my night unfortunately ended up 4am in the bathroom with a tad of food poisoning. Lets say projectile vomiting was not pleasant. But I felt good once all was out. :(
I have a feeling I must of had a bad shrimp or two.. but who knows, could have been anything on the spread.
I will venture back to Hollywood I think and give Katsuya another chance, but not sure if I can do SLS Katsuya again.. Sorry.
