| - I looked up Japanese places on the Strip since Zuma at Cosmo was closed until 5pm. Sake Rok popped up and boasted of live entertainment from their wait staff between table aisles, but only for dinner. AYCE sushi option before 4pm! Not bad for $25-35: basic to speciality sushi options with sushi rolls, limited nigiri, starters, and mochi. I heard it's probably the best AYCE deal on the whole Strip. Be prepared to pay extra for leftovers, including rice. Order only 3 items at a time. Late lunch was a quiet affair, save for the fun group celebrating with multiple rounds of sake bombs. I almost tried a Bunny bomb! Bacardi dragonberry rum & sparkling white peach sake, one of these days ...
Benjamin was our fun waiter and engaged in friendly convo with my friend (bday girl) and me. He said he had half a mind to bring us those sake bombs. We pretty much had a snack since dinner with the family was an hour later haha. Friend got ramen and I ordered the Peter Parker roll (fried soft shell crab) plus garlic edamame. Those beans were sour, lots of lime and not enough garlic. Made me miss spicy garlic edamame real bad from Aniki's back home. I tried the ramen and it's decent. PP roll was snack worthy and tasty. I'd definitely have to order another for a full lunch. Round crispies on the outside gave a satisfying crunch.
Interior looks cool and loft-like with two levels, and I heard a private function room on a third floor? I'd say ask for a second floor table along the glass wall to overlook downstairs for optimum entertainment viewing. Make a reservation for peak hours. To get here, walk past Shake Shack and Bruxie's, toward the T-Mobile arena. There's also an outside bar with comfy seats and heating lamps.
