| - Another Sin City fanboy here - So glad they reopened! I have been following Yung around since the Sapporo Sushi days, around 15 years ago! I was so bummed out when they closed their Eastern location, then super excited to see that they had reopened close by! If anything, their nigiri quality seems to have improved!
Went in last night and they were slammed. Full tables and we got the last two seats at the bar. I always sit at the bar and will admit, yes their two servers that wait on the tables are not that great, but who goes to a sushi bar and gets a table anyways? They are two middle aged Asian women that don't speak great English, but they are never rude. They try their best I guess. Behind the bar is Yung the owner, Jimbo, and Pancho. Don't know if Jessie is still with them. Yung is always super friendly and pushes you to eat as much as you possibly can, even though it's costing him money! They were having a hard time keeping up with orders last night, even though all three were slicing and dicing as quickly as they could.
My favorites have always been - the baby tako and the double seared roll. Their garlic sauce is good, but I think they overdo it a little with the yum/creamy sauce sometimes. Their rice is fresh and has a touch of vinegar to it which is how it should be and helps give it a tiny briny taste. The nigiri was solid with huge, fresh, and creamy portions. This place is right near my place - so excited to see them reopened. This place is in a different league than the dozen other sushi places up and down Eastern. Yung I wish you and your crew the best of luck in your new location!
