| - WOW! I cannot tell you enough how much I love Soho!
I have been searching for some new great spots on the southwest side of town and sadly, there aren't many. So naturally, when I read that former Executive chef of Social House (John Chien Lee) opened his own restaurant, I was thrilled!!
I have always loved Social House but think their prices are outrageous for the portion sizes you get. The Sashimi Sampler at S.H. was my favorite but the fish was cut so thin and skimpy and was $28! BUUUUUTTTT not at Soho! The Yellowtail Sashimi appetizer was only $10 and the yellowtail was cut THICK and was out-of-this-world delicious!! DO NOT miss! I repeat: DO NOT MISS!! (I wanted to order 10!!!) We also ordered a simpl spicy tuna roll off the Happy Hour Menu and 6 Poke "Tostadas". All very very delicious and very inexpensive!!!!
The rolls were A-MAZING! We tried the Dragon Twin, Spicy Soft Shell Crab roll, the Sunny Salmon Roll and goodness.....the quality of the fish is SO FRESH! I have to admit, its been a long time since i've had such fresh fish in Las Vegas. Oyishi is usually my local hang, and though I love it... I feel as of late, the quality of fish has really gone downhill at points and its totally bummed me out! (That's why I've been on the search for a new spot!)
One nice touch is that they also offer a hot brown rice Japanese tea and its complimentary, which is a nice alternative to the traditional green tea and its really really yummy!
To top off the whole experience, Chef Lee came out and asked us how our dinner was! He was so kind and actually mentioned that he takes the freshness of his seafood very seriously! To which I replied... "It's the first thing I noticed!" followed by... "I'm your biggest fan and telling everyone I know!!"
Without a doubt this is going to be my new spot. I want to eat here every night of the week! Ohhhhh, I'm drooling just thinking about it.....
