| - Oishii!
So I stumbled on this place because my future brother-in-law was being shady about his bachelor party. I kept bugging him about the plans, but he kept dodging the question. Finally, I had to take matters into my own hands. With the help of a friend, we convinced him to go to run some errands with us and ended up kidnapping him to Las Vegas. I wanted to plan a memorably meal, so this place fit the bill.
Recap:
1. Parking - Easy Peasy. The restaurant is located right across from American Shooters in a surface parking lot.
2. Décor/Atmosphere - Clean and simple. What's nice about this place is that they have more seating than other omakese places. They actually have a couple private rooms that can seat a decent amount of people.
3. Food - F-in' fantastic. We went with the regular omakase, which set us back $120 per person. Here's what it came with:
a. Appetizer Sake - House make, fruit sake. Light and refreshing.
b. Appetizer - Small dish consisting of Yams, small cucumber salad, and steamed green beans. It was something small to hold us over until the main attractions began.
c. Soup - Traditional mushroom soup in a light broth
d. Sashimi - 5 cuts of super fresh sashimi. I managed to snap a picture, but forgot to note what I ate. I thought the cuts of sashimi was on the small side though.
e. Grilled Platter - Consisted of 3 types of fish and wagyu beef. This was one of the group favorites. Flaky Buttery fish with beef that literally melted in your mouth.
f. Nigiri - The sushi chef that was tending to us set plates in front of us at the sushi bar. As he made the sushi, he asked us to eat it as soon as he made it. I think we tried around 8-10 pieces of nigiri before this portion of was done. He also explained the rice that they use. They actually use brown rice, but they polish each grain of rice before cooking. It strips away the tough exterior, which is used to keep the moisture in the rice. The finished product looks like white rice, but the texture and consistency is out of this world.
g. Handroll - Simple tuna and Japanese green scallion hand roll.
h. Dessert - We each got a dessert. I went with the house made jelly, but I thought my dessert was the least interesting. Go with the brown rice ice cream.
4. Service - Awesome service. We literally had a ex-ninja watching over us while we ate. There was never an emply plate or cup on our table for more than 3 seconds. They also took the time out to explain the food, history, and how to enjoy it.
5. Bathroom - Standard bathroom. Nothing special.
6. Price - Expensive, but well worth it.
7. Baby Friendly - Probably want to leave the baby at home for this one.
A lot of people compared this place to Kabuto (which is my other favorite omakese place). The thing is, half the staff from here Kabuto, including the head sushi chef. You'll find a lot of similarities between the two meals, but there's a little more variety here. Will be back!
