| - I'm an AYCE Sushi King out here in Las Vegas! My palette deserves nothing but the best! I hate to sound snobbish because far from that when it comes to food, but I know my sushi and this review will reflect the entire experience I shared with friends of mine.
I heard about this place from a few friends already and I wanted to give it a go because like I said, I am the AYCE Sushi King! I had to try it to measure it up to my favorite in the Valley. After a marathon, i left the decision of food to a good friend of mine, and I had great expectations because I believe in her taste. Now, mind you, it would all be our first time, but I was down! There's such a thing called hungry eyes and I don't mean Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing and my eyes were not satisfied let alone my royal palette ;) I start off by warming up my stomach with my usual orders of nigiri (fresh water eel, salmon, and Cajun albacore), seaweed salad, and green mussels! The preliminary order had satisfactory flavor, but I did notice that they put very little rice! I liked that part! I noticed that the friends I was with was not very happy with their service and that took a toll on my experience.
I believe a restaurant MUST understand how to treat and serve their patrons well FIRST and then deliver with high quality food or products! However, service seemed to be at the bottom of their priorities; at least for us it was.
If my friends aren't happy, I'm not happy. And when I'm not happy, you get 2 stars! 1 for being open during lunch and 2 for having an AYCE sushi during lunch for $21.95. The sushi was subpar, the appetizers were decent but not wow, and the atmosphere was not as welcoming or friendly as others in the Valley. They do have a cool sword in the men's restroom though! :) I will probably end up coming here one more time because I love AYCE sushi, but I'm leaning more towards avoiding this place. On to the next, on, on to the next one!
