    Off-strip, although their parking lot has a beautiful view of said strip, Izakaya Go is still worth a trip imo. You'll get plenty of options for tasty treats at prices slightly better than you'll see on the strip itself. Quality is in line if not better as well. We grabbed a reservation and at first figured we probably didn't need it, however, this place filled in fast. Get yourself a variety of skewers to start then roll into a main dish. For skewers, the scallops are my top recommendation, however, the lamp chop was tasty as well. I went with the beef meal dish. It came with a bunch of little plates, a salad, and soup. Nothing included was overwhelmingly good but nothing significantly missed its mark either. No worries if you under order as you can always get a few additions as you enjoy.

    Staff here are very friendly and service is quick! We ordered several dishes to try but its worth noting is their Sea Urchin Cream Pasta and Blue Crab Shishito Fritters! Also the Scallops yakitori skewers were delicious and Fried Softshell Crab and Grilled Shishito Peppers! Skip the Eggplant [1st on the menu] it was tough, spongey and inedible for us. Everything else was delicious! Can't forget the Kalbi Ribs and Corn - those were really good! Space is tight, small and loud - typical Izakaya ambiance. Not as accessible for mobility scooters.

    Octopus was a little salty

    We liked the vibe here. It was a fun experience. The service was nice, but the place wasn't as clean as we hoped it to be. They had flip flops laying all over the floor and trash that they didn't care to sweep up. The food itself was above average. There were a few items that were not good, but there were some that were great. I do think certain items were a bit overpriced for what it was. The octopus was a bit on the saltier side and the beef tataki was super sour. The grilled meats came out cold and a bit flavorless so we asked for more of the sauce on the side. I recommend this place if you're up for the experience. If you're looking to get the bang for your buck with the satisfaction of a full meal, this is not the place.

    This is my second visit. First time there, I was amazed how delicious their Uni pasta! However this time around, the Uni pasta tasted different. It's not as rich / creamy and tasted a bit too sweet. We asked the waitress and yes, they've changed their sauce. Please change it back!!! Everything is great! Service is awesome!

    We were looking for a late night spot to eat. I did a quick search online and Izakaya Go came up as a popular destination. We arrived for a late night dinner on a Thursday night recently. This Japanese spot is located in a nice plaza area close to Palms Casino, Rio Casino, and Chinatown. Parking is available in the medium size parking lot outside. The restaurant is moderate size but cozy. The traditional Japanese decor is inviting and gives off a family friendly local spot vibe. There are a lot of booths and tables available for dine in. Our party sat in a zataku where we had to take off our shoes. I thought that was a nice touch. We ordered a bunch of items from both the happy hour menu and regular menu. Everything was delicious and high quality. Some of the stand out dishes were the half ramens, salmon hand roll, spicy hand roll, fried oyster, caterpillar roll, and the CA rolls. Half ramens were so flavorful and such a good value. We enjoyed the sushi very much as they were very tasty and authentic. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Izakaya Go. Happy hour menu from 10:00pm to close is such a great value. The staff were so friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Extra kudos to our server Mimi and Ernest for being from the Bay where we're from as well. The atmosphere was great. We will definitely be back when we are in town again.

    Mushroom, pork belly

    Food 4/5 Beef liver sashimi is very unique and special. Its cold and the texture is great. It's a hit or miss dish Yakatori: great. I like beef tounge the most. The mushroom, pork belly, corn, eels are all good Service 4/5 fast and efficient Ambiance 4/5 cozy place. Came in Sunday night around 8pm, and got seated within 15 mins

    tl;dr: The uni pasta alone is worth coming back for. Izakaya Go initially felt like one of those non-Japanese-owned izakayas that try too hard, including staff yelling sloppy Japanese for effect. If you have to say you are Japanese you probably aren't, the way really great restaurants don't have to say they are rated the best. That said, the owner is actually Japanese lol! Also he did so well from the Vegas location that he even opened a second location in Little Tokyo in DTLA. Crazy to open up in Cali with all that red tape. The food felt authentic and reminded me of a mix between Kiraku in Berkeley and Ichiza on Spring Mountain. Most dishes were solid, but the yakitori was weaker than expected. The chicken breast with plum sauce was very dry, and we had to ask for yuzu kosho to make it edible. The table we were seated at was also wobbly. But remember that uni pasta? On point with the sauce not being overly creamy. Overall, I'd say go to Izakaya Go. Solid izakaya, and that uni pasta is the reason to return.

    Happy Hour Menu

    This is a fun place for a late night snack. We got to this place around midnight or so and it was still full of people. The staff welcomed is as we walked in and seated us right away. We ordered off their happy hour menu and you can't beat their prices. We ordered so many dishes I couldn't name them all. I was only able to get a picture the dishes that were placed in front me. Tip: show up early, this is a small place and can get crowded very easily. Or you can make a reservation. But give this place a try. The staff is friendly and really thorough with your orders.

    Tempura set
    James Q.

    We weren't too hungry so we just tried their signature un pasta and a tempura set. They have different kinds of sauces on the table which is a huge plus, but I'd like them to add tempura sauce along with the others cuz in the end I ran out of if. Their uni pasta doesn't look the best but is pretty creamy and full of umami, definitely a great place for Japanese style pasta. Their service is welcoming like a good Japanese restaurant and inside is clean and spacious

    Karage, truffle corn, salmon sashimi, scallop sashimi
    Rhea M.

    Friends that are local suggested this spot. Cozy vibes and delicious food ahead: Truffle corn was addictive. Salmon roll I forgot the name of was tasty, but not super memorable. Sashimi was fresh, but slices were a little thin. Karage was a highlight and a must order. I'm not even a big fried chicken person, but the crunch was perfect. Beef udon was comfort in a bowl. Okonomiyaki was a little over sauces so the sauce did drown out the flavor to make it a bit one note. Despite some slight misses, it's a huge menu with something for everyone. When I'm in town next, I'll make sure to go back. A great visit for some more comforting Japanese food for when you want an option outside of the bougie places on the strip.

    This review is for their Happy Hour. Landed in Vegas around 9pm and was starving, so had to find a late night spot with good food and good drinks. There's nothing better than going to an Izakaya to decompress after a long work week. Fortunately, this spot is opened till 3am and there's a happy hour menu that begins at 10pm. What a deal! You can get Toro sashimi at a very affordable price. Some of the items we loved include: - uni chawanmushi - toro sashimi Would come here again and again, great value, quality is great for the price.

    Stinky Roll
    Debbie F.

    Late night satisfaction! Sushi to cap off a long day and it was fantastic. Found this spot open late with a great menu. Happy hour options, unique items, variety galaore...100% yes! The service was also great! They were busy and almost every seat filled, but food came out fast, we were checked in on regularly and we more than satisfied. Located in a small shopping center, parking was rather full but we found a space quickly (probably since the other businesses were closed at the time). I'm keeping this spot saved for future Vegas visits. Can't go wrong with late night fresh sushi! Yum!!

    Spider roll
    mich l.

    We had dinner there tonight and when we went there we waited for five minutes to get seated. It was packed it must be very popular. The restaurant is tiny compared to other Izakayas. We ordered a lot tonight we ordered spider roll, That was very good. We also ordered GYOZA and it was very good as well. We ordered chicken skewer that was a little salty and dry and then also chicken liver skewer, They were very good. Also part of our order was the Guard spinach. I thought it was OK like so so and then I ordered tempura dinner plate. The plate was huge and it consists of miso soup and then the tempura, shrimp and vegetables, and also some pickled vegetables. They were not bad at all, but my husband said that the shrimp tempura was a little soggy and the taste nothing special compared to other restaurants. It was very noisy tonight and there's not really a privacy with your conversation. Table next to you can hear what you're saying and there's some people who are drunk and then they just kept talking loudly. It was annoying. The white staff were very attentive and they clear your table promptly.

    No. It's not an AYCE place.

    Is happy hour available everyday or only certain days?

    I'm not sure...

    Are kids allowed?

    Yes definitely

    Do they still have happy hour?

    They do! We arrived shortly before happy hour last week & ordered a few things from that additional menu.

    I see vegetarian offerings. Is there vegan?

    There's a Vegetarian Menu posted, so you can check for which ones may be vegan. I would still ask before ordering though.

    How much is house large hot sake on happy hour? Regular? Thanks!

    Do you have the full menu or just the bento box?

    We picked up food a few weeks ago. They have a few other specials besides the different bento boxes. My parents loved the salmon bento and the pork bento boxes. Said each one was enough for 2 meals.

    They have internal organs are only Heart, Liver, Gizzard.

    Do i need to make a reservation for Saturday night dinner?

    Nope!

When we first went inside the restaurant, we noticed that there was plenty of open tables and booth seating available. A team member provided us waters and the menu.

Ramen: Spicy Miso, Tonkotsu Shoyu, Shio, Veggie, Chicken Paitan and more! For an appetizer, my husband and I split the Gyoza. It was good. For an entrée, I ended up ordering the beef bulgogi, and it was excellent. The beef was super flavorful, tender, and cooked really well! It was a perfect sweet and savory balance you want from bulgogi! My husband went with one of the ramen bowls, and it looked amazing too! The broth smelled rich and comforting, and from what he said, the flavor definitely delivered! The service was amazing! Everyone was super friendly, attentive, and welcoming! The food also came out pretty quickly too! Ramen Tatsu ended up being a great dinner stop. Delicious food, fantastic service, and an amazing atmosphere. I'd stop by here again for a ramen bowl!

The takoyaki had a nice crisp to it; they seem on the smaller side, and there could've been a little more filling. I got the tonkatsu shoyu, and it was okay.

Upon arriving, I walked in and called again to see if the phone worked. It rang without an issue. I noticed the restaurant had four tables occupied. Two with food, two waiting for food one with dishes waiting to be cleared. One server on the floor. He greeted me. I let him know, I've been calling for twenty minutes. He apologized and responded with, "I'm the only one here". It's a small place so there isn't much running around. Although a lot can happen in twenty minutes, I don't think it was that busy he couldn't answer the phone. From being a former server, not taking a phone call is missed business I was taught. It doesn't take long to take an order by phone or at least answer and put the call on hold. The server told me to give him a couple minutes and he would be back to take my order. He dropped off to one of the tables waiting on their food and then took my order. Fifteen minutes later my food was brought to me. During that time, the server chatted with a guest for a few minutes before serving food to the last table waiting on theirs. That there was a prime example the server could've done something similar with a phone call coming in. There was no rush for him to clear the table that had dirty dishes on it so I didn't see the struggle he used when not answering my call for twenty minutes. I opted to stop here as it was on the way home instead of going to the one on Rainbow. Food was fine. This my first experience coming to this location. It will be my last. I highly recommend ordering online to avoid the disaster I experienced on this visit.
