  • At last we decided to take a chance at trying this Japanese-esque yakinuku joint that we've eyed for some time and lo and behold we were not disappointed. Having rested up abit after check in, we headed over for a late dinner for two under extremely frigid temps near freezing...very un-Vegas like! Arrived around 10:30pm to a near empty interior however hidden away was the atypical urusai salarymen nomikai group hidden away in the back corner of the joint undoubtedly with intent. From start to finish we were serenaded by inebriated karaoke slash X Factor wannabes, was about to tell them that they missed that shop by 5 feet as literally there is a karaoke bar down the strip mall. Anyhoooo, back to food. We ordered the yukke to start and hubby was fairly impressed by the freshness and color of the uncooked tartar, a rich pink-redness that did exemplify a higher quality level than what we preconceived. And from fellow Yelpsters as well as table peeking we stayed with the prime karubi cut, prime tongue as well as the inaptly named "kobe" plate as so agreed upon by Y-friend Godzilla X. Come on people get over this fixation on Kobe there is an abundance of duly deemed superior grade prefectural wagyu breeders, ignorance of such denies those cows their justice in the wagyu hierarchy. I myself prefer Miyazaki-gyu and Saga-gyu. However we devoured both choices and then attempted to challenge our immune systems and stomachs with their horumon and mino selections or "offal" offerings. Also must say worth the sweat and anxiety! In fact the outstanding miso provided gave us flashbacks to some of the best horumon yaki places in Japan namely those gems hidden away in Atsugi where travellers drive long and far purposefully to partake in the B-gourmet shops that only serve miso laced entrails, oh why did the place not have lettuce to dip such a shame. All in all it's far fetch to say Yagyu is the best in the west and as I've been blessed to have frequently the best in Tokyo, its no Kinryuzan, Kirakutei, Yoroniku, nor even close in comparison to my BFF's yakiniku-ya Ryukaen (which is still the best kept 5 star secret in Tokes), but if the universe only included NV & AZ we will be back!
