Vegas|Kabuto|A Battlefield for Your Taste Buds! 💥
Just tried one of Vegas’ rare omakase spots—Kabuto Edomae Sushi 🍣 🐟 The best part was definitely the freshness of the ingredients The snow crab with caviar was perfectly balanced—sweet and not heavy at all. The tuna marinated in dashi broth with seaweed sauce was cleverly seasoned—it didn’t overpower the fish but balanced the richness beautifully. The chawanmushi was overflowing with ingredients, and the eel aroma was spot-on! 🍣 The 8-piece nigiri showcased the chef’s skills White fish like kinmedai truly shine when eaten fresh. The bluefin tuna sashimi had a slight fishy note—maybe marinating it would’ve elevated it. The isaki (chicken grunt fish) nigiri was a standout—thick-cut with a unique texture from the connective tissue. The aji (horse mackerel) was clean and surprisingly not fishy—rare for silver-skinned fish! The biggest surprise was the scallop nigiri—cut thicker than a coin, bursting with sweetness like it was just shucked! ⚡️ The letdowns were in the appetizers The miso-marinated fish was too tough and dry—chewy beyond enjoyment. Maybe they should consider removing this dish. The yellowtail in the sashimi platter tasted bland, almost like it wasn’t fully matured. The tamagoyaki at the end had perfect moisture, but the dessert was just average. 🥱 Honest thoughts If they replaced the weaker appetizers with two extra nigiri—like adding a spot prawn or kohada—it could’ve been a more complete experience.
