Decor - nice modern simple
Such a great all around surprise. After the many FAILURES of Tivoli Village, I was surprised and relieved as to how much I enjoyed Kabuki. The only thing was that it was very slow service. Our food and drinks took forever. But great service nonetheless.
ATTENTION All Restaurant Managers take note: Sung (whom I presumed to be the manager as he was the only one in a tie and dress shirt) is the best manager I have seen in the city. He supports his staff. He was on the floor the entire night bussing tables, taking drink orders, running food, running checks. He, unlike most of the awful management here in Las Vegas was not above doing those things. He looked like he had control of the restaurant, for he was not frantic, but very present.
Nahee, our server was very good. She had a huge section, yet she kept her cool, spoke intelligently about the menu items.
Food was phenomenal. Lovvvved the super rich, calorie ridden Alaskan roll. Great fish - very fresh, with so much flavor. Salmon skin, was a much simpler alternative which I enjoyed just as much. Tempura was great. Not as battered and heavy as I've had in other Japanese restaurants. Just wish there was sweet potato in our mixed tempura. Peach sakitini was pretty good, however I normally like stronger drinks. Still, it was worth my curiosity.
Dessert - Opera Cake. Very different the typical mochi ice cream and tempura ice cream every other Japanese restaurant has. Such a delicate taste. Great ending to an absolutely wonderful experience!
