| - The very first thing to say about Sushi Takashi is that the food is very, very good. The food is as good as any sushi restaurant on the strip, except you don't have to go to a hotel and pay the expensive price!
Sushi Takashi offers a variety of Japanese food, not only sushi. There are a wide range of desserts (shaved ice and tempura ice cream) as well as other Japanese cuisine, like sukiyaki and curry.
There is an All-You-Can Eat option for around seventy dollars, but the course options are of variegated choices while still very filling. I tried the ten-course sushi dinner, and it was more than enough food.
My particular favourite was the scallop carpaccio. It was topped with masago, a tangy sauce, a very thin lemon slice, and garnished with a small bit of cilantro. The tangy lemon and sauce blended very nicely with the rich, buttery scallop.
The quality and variety of food is great, but I think the food could be served in a more timely fashion--I want plenty of time to wolf it down!
Overall, I felt that the restaurant gave me the upper hand--I could enjoy high-quality sushi and Japanese food without going to the strip. It was also an interesting, different option than the traditional All-You-Can Eat (plus there's no time limit!)
