| - WOW!
I took in-laws here for dinner on our last night boozing, gambling, and streaking. We always end up gravitating towards Japanese, but I definitely didn't want to pay Strip prices. The reviews for this place was spot on. This a hidden gem of Las Vegas! It's super far off the strip, but well worth the trip to check this place out.
Recap:
1. Parking - Easy. The restaurant is located in a small strip mall with ample parking.
2. Décor/Atmosphere - Clean, zen. No cheesy decorations or bright, distracting colors.
3. Food - effin' amazing. The thing is, when you first look at the menu, it'll seem like a typical, sushi joint. No thanks. Order off-menu. Request Chef Hiroyoshi to make you an omakese (chef choice). For $65 bucks, I actually felt like I was ripping him off. We had a 7-8 course tasting that ranged from homemade tofu & uni appetizer, toro sashami w/ caviar and fresh oyster , miso black cod, large assortment of sashimi/sushi, etc. We also ordered a side of shrimp tempura, which my toddler threw down. He also loved the toro sashimi and uni/tofu appitizer. The chef said next time we come by, he'll make him a special "kids omakese".
4. Service - AWESOME. I can't say enough nice things about the staff. We were very well taken care of and they took the time out explain each cut of fish, chef's background, different types of sake, and flirted with my toddler.
5. Bathroom - Standard restaurant bathroom. Clean.
6. Price - very, very fair.
7. Baby Friendly - Yup! They were very accommodating with my toddler. He got his own place settings, high chair + booster seat. Didn't see a diaper changing table in the men's room though.
Overall, I loved this place. We'll be back, but make sure you make reservations. This place is small and I'm sure it'll be packed, once word gets out.
