There is a reason that this place has been ranked as the best place for sushi in Las Vegas for over 20 years. Their quality is amazing as their prices were surprisingly affordable for this level of quality. We were a group of 4 and we came for lunch. We did not order anything from the lunch specials. We went with the medium sashimi plate which gave a great variety of fish. The salmon was like butter, and the tuna was sliced bright red and meaty. We all shared different rolls-Fresh White was the best for most of us. The Rock and Roll had a really cool presentation with 2 pieces having fish overflowing out. The salmon belly and O-Toro were on the specials board, and I haven’t had sashimi like this since I was in Japan. The service was excellent as we never had empty water glasses, they accommodated my extra ginger request, and added the O-Toro at the end as they said it was their best quality fish that that had! Highly recommend it (It was 23 for 2 pieces). I will definitely be returning when I am in Las Vegas!

Wow! If u want one of the most expansive, high quality and authentic menus from a Japanese restaurant this is the place. Personally I came for the sushi and was very impressed. I was able to try some types of fish I never have before. I was talking to one of the log-time chefs and he said Osaka opened back in 1967 and was the first sushi restaurant in Vegas. Walking in you may be wondering what type of place am I walking into? Within moments u realize u are somewhere special. I really enjoyed the staff. Oscar, my sushi chef, was very personable and introduced me to quite a few more “rare” fish I had not had before. I cane during a. Less busy time which really helped too. I have been to a lot of sushi restaurants and have gotten pickier as I have aged. This one is at the top of my list!

Food is AMAZING (no exaggeration). They have some wizards working behind the counter. Every dish came out perfect. I would say this place is the best value in the Vegas area. What I like about it is it's a fine quality restaurant away from the LV Strip. So you don't have to worry too much about traffic and etc. The other thing is, this place is open until 2am. I arrived at 1am, and I was expecting poor service 1 hour from closing. But man, did they blow my expectations through the room. You would be hard pressed to find better food and service for under 100. I tried to capture pictures of everything, but I ended up eating the one dish. Couldn't stop and couldn't remember the name of it. I will be back before leaving vegas. And since since I come out frequently for work, this will become a regular stop for me.
