| - This is the kind of place you almost want to keep secret (I know, I know, that's sacrelige in yelpland) but now that the word is definitely out, I might as well throw my generalized two cents in:
Like Raku down the street, Ichiza is the kind of place you'd never expect to find in Vegas...and generally filled with the kind of people (young Asians) you'd be surprised to find here in plentitude. If it isn't "authentic," it certainly feels that way--on the second floor of a post-trendy strip mall with little else to attract you (though Zizzy karaoke bar downstairs has its charms).
Yes, there is a general standard sushi--ramen-robotayaki menu here, but that isn't what you should come for. What you should come for are the random daily specials that are posted on pieces of paper all over the walls, which could be...just about anything edible! Come to experiment, come to be daring, come to have fun. Service is friendly, by cute Japanese girls, though it's not necessarily helpful. I wouldn't necessarily recommend those with food allergies take their chances here.
And finish with the decadent honey toast dessert, big enough for...two? four? six!
