๐ฃ Las Vegas Omakase | Kabuto โ My All-Time Favorite Sushi Experience!
When it comes to Japanese food in Vegas, Kabuto holds a special place in my heart ๐ I did a lot of research before my first visit, and this spot consistently ranks high for both quality and value. Iโve now been twice โ and it never disappoints! ๐ฅ Their grilled items used to be the absolute standout โ my first visit in 2018 was unforgettable. Though the menu has changed recently (fewer grilled options), the quality is still top-tier. Donโt be fooled by how delicate everything looks โ youโll leave stuffed! ๐คฃ The omakase includes around 12 pieces of nigiri โ so if youโre not into raw fish, maybe think twice ๐ ๐ Reservations: Book ahead! During the pandemic, they only took 4โ5 tables per night. Request counter seats โ watching the chef craft each piece is half the fun, and itโs way more photogenic ๐ธ Walk-ins might work if there are last-minute cancellations (thatโs how I got in the second time! ๐) ๐โโ๏ธ Service: The chefs are Japanese, and the servers (soft-spoken Japanese ladies) are incredibly sweet and attentive. On my second visit, I didnโt sit at the counter, but the server brought me several small plates just so I could take pretty photos of the sushi โ so thoughtful! ๐ ๐ฐ Pricing: On my first visit, I had the $120 menu (which was amazing). Post-pandemic, they seem to have just one option: $100 per person (excluding drinks & tip). I personally preferred the $120 menu, but the $100 is still a fantastic experience. ๐ซ Writing this makes me want to go back to Kabuto againโฆ If youโre in Vegas, make time for this gem! #KabutoLV #VegasOmakase #SushiLovers #HiddenGem #FineDining #LasVegasEats
