Came to Yonaka on my most recent trip to Vegas. I actually came twice during the trip. On my first visit, I was not happy with the food or service at Yonaka. It was probably a combination of the waiter not directing us anyway in what to order, and the kitchen having an "off night." When I expressed my disappointment, Chef Ramir contacted me personally and requested that I return to give it another try.
My wife and I came to give Yonaka one more try due to the great reviews on Yelp. Chef Ramir guided the menu with a 6 course Omakase. On our second visit the food was amazing, service was spot on, and the experience was exceptional. Every dish that we had built on the flavors of the previous and left us satisfied and impressed. If you are looking for a great meal in Las Vegas and want to get slightly off the strip, go to Yonaka. This is a restaurant that takes pride in their food and service, and is an asset to the city. Las Vegas is full of great restaurants, and Yonaka is toward the top of that list.
If you are in Vegas, get in an Uber or a Lyft (if you don't have a car) and get to Yonaka for a delicious meal. If you like Japanese food, you will be more satisfied that any overpriced establishment on the strip.
Thank you Chef Ramir and team for a fantastic meal. We will return!
