| - Decent sushi at Las Vegas prices, but that fried chicken entree is pretty pretty pretty good.
That really does about sum it up. Located in the Cosmopolitan, which is quickly becoming one of the stars on the Las Vegas strip, it's actually on the 3rd floor in what can be described as a small high-end eating, drinking, and shopping mall.
It didn't seem quite as popular as its next door neighbor Jaleo, and they had plenty of seats available at the sushi counter where I sat.
One entree, one roll, and a seaweed salad came out to be $60. The roll and seaweed salad weren't very impressive, but the fried chicken entree was. I had seen other reviews raving about it, and add my name to the list of people who wouldn't mind eating it again. It was great - piping hot when it came out to me, really crispy skin that had been doused with pepper and the honey-like dipping sauce was good as well. Though I enjoyed it more without the sauce.
I will say that the entree was absolutely massive, and if you do order the fried chicken, try and share it with another person and/or limit the number of other things you get.
Service was great, and I enjoyed sitting at the chef's counter - they would occasionally (well, once) pass a complimentary tasting of something exciting that the chef had prepared.
