I'd been to a famous one of these before (kushi-age restaurant) in Kyoto so I was excited to see something like this in Las Vegas. We were able to make reservations quite easily (also wasn't busy when we went).
Hubby, though a big fan of fried foods, was afraid a meal of it would really gross us out with the greasiness. Thankfully, Yu-Yu had plenty of other things to distract our taste buds in between fried morsels.
Definitely recommend the following:
Yellowtail Carpaccio
Seared Beef Tongue
Garlic Chicken Gizzards
Skewers: Mentaiko Mochi, Mozarella Chicken, Pork Tenderloin, Bacon Okra
We also ordered the Tuna Yukke, House salad and the pork soup but these were normal. We also got bacon mochi but the bacon was so thin, I thought they didn't even include it. Skip!
They do have a comprehensive menu of sauces and I found myself drawn mostly to the salts they start with and their ponzu. Yum!
Service was jovial though it got a little defensive about the bacon mochi and kind of disappeared after all our food was served so we did wait a bit to get out of there. Otherwise, it was a pleasant and fun dinner for us.
