My husband and I love Japanese food. We’ve been to dozens of places in town. This is by far the best sushi, sashimi, and hot dishes we’ve ever had. This is our new favorite spot. Came in for our anniversary tonight. Both the food and service was impeccable. Ask for Lena. She was wonderful.
Let’s put it this way, I don’t even want children but I would have one just to baptize them at Sen of Japan! My girlfriend wants to move to Europe but I don’t think I could physically live beyond 10 miles of this place. I attend Sen of Japan more often than church. If i was sentenced to death row the Toro here would be my final request. If the Yellowstone super volcano blows up tomorrow the first place I would run to is Sen of Japan. Needless to say, it’s decent. Just kidding…. the fish tastes like it was plucked out of the ocean second before, it goes down smoother than Niagara Falls, and disappears quicker than a man evading child support. I get butterflies entering this place. Oh and the staff and servers are beyond talented, yet so humble. It’s a +100/10. Oh and if you have an unrefined taste palate don’t even waste these talented chefs time.
In A Nutshell:
-Sen of Japan is shaping up to be one of our favorite go-to local sushi restaurants in Vegas.
-You will find some very nice cuts of fish both regular & premium (like toro).
-The service is always very friendly & courteous both at the sushi bar & at the tables.
-The restaurant has a nice little buzz every time we go.
Overall, the food is really great, I would suggest pretty much everything they have on the menu.
Last night my mom and I visited Sen of Japan for dinner with a friend.
We arrived at 6pm on Saturday and the dining room was already filling up - by the time we left at 7.30pm there was a wait for tables.
There is also a sushi counter which offers a special menu and where you can watch a TV with a Golden Knights game or other sporting event of your choosing.
Upon arrival we were taken to our table where our friend ordered a whisky which came with a frozen ball of green tea in the glass! I have never seen this before at any restaurant - very cool.
We then had salmon nigiri which melted in your mouth and shrimp and vegetable tempura that was some of the best I have ever had.
Finally, we finished with the chocolate soufflé, which comes with green tea ice cream (for $9). When you take a bite, be sure to get both the soufflé and the ice cream, which are a perfect combination.
Parking is free and plentiful in the shopping center where Sen of Japan is located.
Prices were reasonable and service was friendly, if not a little slow since they were very busy and somewhat short-staffed (like many restaurants these days given COVID and labor shortages).
I am definitely looking forward to returning to Sen of Japan for their 6 course omakase menu for $60, which seems incredibly reasonable.
The best sushi in the US hands down! The food is exquisite with great flavors throughout each piece. The flavors are far and beyond anything you will taste elsewhere! The service is above par and the staff is very accommodating and friendly.
