We had a breathtaking 10 course kaiseki meal before seeing No Doubt at the Sphere last Saturday night! Mayumi remembered me from a brief visit to the Japanese grocery store around the corner a few years ago, and from the old Yuzu location where I had my yelp goodbye party when moving from Vegas. She and Olivia took great care of us along with the three chefs. We decided to splurge on the tokishirazu June special menu which is a rare summer salmon caught before spawning shipped overnight from Japan. The 10 courses: 1. Zensai: 7 seasonal item including shiso jelly, yuba crusted fish, okra, chestnut, house made tofu 2. Otsukuri: O-toro, tokishirazu, and scallop sahimi 3. Yakimono: Hokkaido scallop gratin with lobster, tokishirazu, duck, uni 4. Nimono-gawari: potato dumpling (simmered course) 5. Kawarizara: grilled A5 Wagyu with foie gras and shaved truffle 6. Agemono: deep fried roll of sea eel wrapped around avocado and cream cheese and broccoli tempura with tempura sauce foam 7. Sunomono: tokishirazu namero (tartare) with kaiware sprouts, radish, white woodear mushroom, green onion, shiso, ginger, ikura in sesame ponzu 8. Sushi: tokishirazu and rare flounder fin nigiri plus toro and uni handroll 9. Tomewan garari: miso soup 10. Dessert: white peach mascarpone mousee I also had a Hitachino Nest Yuzu Lager and Eric R. had hojicha to drink. He was totally full at course #4 but we persevered! The quality of ingredients and care in assembly was truly special. Itadakimasu!
I've visited Kaiseki Yuzu more than 20 times, and the restaurant continues to demonstrate an impressive level of consistency and precision across its seasonal tasting menus. The menu changes monthly, and that constant variation keeps the experience engaging even for repeat visits. The meal opened with a well-balanced zensai course that set the tone for the rest of the evening, followed by an otsukuri sashimi course highlighting exceptionally clean seafood. The shrimp showed excellent sweetness, but the snapper stood out in particular for its clarity of flavor. One of the most memorable dishes of the evening came in the yakimono portion of the menu: a snapper and crab cabbage course. The balance of the dish was remarkable. The sweetness of the seafood was supported by the gentle structure of the cabbage, creating a composition that remained light while still delivering surprising depth. Despite its delicacy, the dish carried an impressive amount of flavor and was arguably the most technically satisfying course of the evening. The futamono course combined scallop, snapper, and uni in a preparation that demonstrated the kitchen's ability to layer flavors without overwhelming the natural character of the seafood. The A5 Omi wagyu yakimono course was executed beautifully as expected. On many visits the wagyu tends to dominate the menu, but this time the seafood courses stood on equal footing, which made the progression of the meal especially interesting. The agemono tempura course, paired with matcha foam, showed excellent control of texture and temperature. The batter remained light and crisp while allowing the ingredients themselves to remain the focus. A later sunomono course featuring firefly squid added contrast and brightness to the progression of the meal, preparing the palate well for the sushi course that followed. The sushi course highlighted seasonal fish, including lavender grouper and golden eye snapper, along with an excellent uni hand roll that reinforced the overall seafood focus of the menu. The meal concluded with a tomewan gawari miso soup and a dessert course featuring mochi, red bean, black sesame, vanilla ice cream, strawberry, and matcha sweet potato. The dessert maintained the same sense of balance seen throughout the rest of the meal. Service throughout the evening remained polished and attentive, and the pacing of the multi-course progression was handled with confidence. After many visits, Kaiseki Yuzu continues to stand out for the quiet precision of its cooking, the balance of its seasonal menus, and the consistency of its execution. It remains one of the most thoughtful tasting menu experiences in Las Vegas.
Kaiseki Yuzu was our first kaiseki experience and it did not disappoint. We came to celebrate my husband's birthday and since it was our first time, we decided to go with the Chiku menu. Everything we had was carefully crafted. They were well-presented and were very fresh and tasty. The yakimono featured a grilled kanburi, which is a winter yellowtail available only during the cold months. We were also served Wagyu ribeye grilled over bincho-tan charcoal. The miso-nabe (hot pot) was individually cooked in front of us and had shrimp, oyster, salmon, scallop, tofu, and vegetables. Our soba was topped with Santa Barbara uni, ikura, and quail egg. Service was very friendly. Our sushi chef explained the relevance of each dish that was served. We had a great time and we will definitely come back.
Kaiseki Yuzu deserves a Michelin star. If you are looking for a true experience that transports you to Japan, Kaiseki Yuzu is the place to try. Nestled in an assuming strip mall on Spring Mountain Road, Kaiseki Yuzu is a gem hidden in plain sight. The moment you walk in, a hostess greets you and shows you to your seat. The restaurant is like a speakeasy meets private Japanese dinner for a small group. At the helm is chef Azeuchi with his wife and sous chef. Together they make seasonal Japanese dishes with various types of fish, wagyu, caviar, and other ingredients sourced from Japan. The dishes are a piece of work themselves and taste so delicious. The A5 wagyu topped with real truffle mushroom was shockingly good and the cuts of fish were better than any omakase I've every had. Words cannot describe the quality of cooking, but hopefully the picture do. This is an entire meal and experience to celebrate any occasion.
I would give 6 stars if I could. We went here for my birthday while on a trip to Vegas and we were blown away. We've had a lot of sushi and this is by far the best we have ever had. The staff was also very accommodating and friendly. We appreciated the explanation for every dish and her positivity and humor. The ambience was intimate and contributed to the authenticity of the experience. We will definitely be back!
Yuzu was my go to restaurant when it used to be down the street from me on Silverado ranch. Back then they were regularly open for lunch and had an a large carte menu as well instead of purely omakase/kaiseke meals. When they moved to their new location it was to follow a vision where they could purely focus on the I omakase/kaiseke meals, creating beautiful and memorable experiences with quality ingredients and a mastery of craft. I totally respect this vision but the price point for me was a bit hard to incorporate into my budget. Recently they have been starting to offer weekend lunches to stimulate business, and at a really affordable rate. I jumped on the chance to experience their blue fin tuna bowl, with uni and ikura, and miso soup for under 30 dollars. Tucked away and unassuming beyond their sign, you enter to a peaceful quiet hallway beside a waiting area. The actual rooms to eat are behind closed doors, giving an intimate feeling to the dining experience. There are several different dining rooms dedicated to the specific meal chosen for the night. The head chef/owner had come out and recognized me as a regular from their old location and graciously gave me a tour of the rooms, as well as a new addition they are working on. The kindness and amazing service him and his wife have shown their customers has always been above and beyond. The actual meal was just as special as I remember. The chef behind the bar handling every component with care, brushing the fish delicately with sauce, placing each component in a gold box like a treasure. The taste lived up to the beautiful presentation, as the fish was some of the freshest I've had! I appreciate they have a few non alcoholic options like a sparkling yuzu soda, and a yuzu ginger beer. The cost for the soda was a bit high since its a brand I'm familiar with, however they present it very nicely with a glass that has a large fancy ball of ice. From my understanding this particular menu item was temporary, and they were thinking next of doing a tempura lunch paired with green tea. I would contact them ahead of time about lunch offerings since its not officially represented in their hours of operation online. The meal did inspire me to plan on saving for a dinner in the near future. If you want a truly special experience you should make a reservation asap!
I came here to celebrate my birthday and had a lovely experience. We had a reservation at 8:15pm for the kaiseki course and sat in the waiting room since we arrived early. Make sure you reserve for the correct course because the omakase course is held in a different room. This is a good place if you're the type that likes to sit at the counter and watch the process but don't like to converse too much with the staff. The chef was quiet most of the time and only spoke when he was introducing a handroll. I personally liked this because I'm an introvert. The dishes were all very good. I personally loved the wagyu beef and the toro & uni handroll. They even added a candle to my dessert which was a nice little touch. I've eaten at other kaiseki restaurants in Vegas with better presentation and ambience, but this is still a nice place to try at least once.
A nice quaint little place in Las Vegas's "asiatown" area. And was greeted upon walking in. The service is impeccable! Had two wonderful servers taken care of the small group that we had which was six people. We got to watch the chefs create everything. At the beginning they brought the side of tuna out which was a huge piece and then explained the different portions of the tuna and what they were .Wonderful kaiseki experience. I did the shou menu which was an 11-course tasting menu. Absolutely fabulous! Especially the middle course which was A5 wagyu with foie gras and shaved truffles. Before they serve that dish they came out and showed the certificates of the beef which I thought was a nice touch. The wagyu was like butter. It was so decadent. Everybody said "oh wow" as soon as they ate the beef. A few more courses which were all very good too including barracuda and a nice pickle miso soup and rice course then followed by a dessert and some sake and I was a happy man, and better yet my date was a very happy woman. Thank you kaiseki yuzu I will be back!
10/5 excellent service kind genuine warm wonderful experience with Christina and John from Hawaii! We decided last minute to come here as our final meal out meal was exquisite we picked the Juno sushi set with 10 pieces of sushi and Waygu and dessert to finish ! From service to ambiance to the food it was nothing short of spectacular
This restaurant is a little hidden inside a Shopping strip. It's the very last unit and they only open for dinner. We had the very first kaiseki dinner reservation for the night. Don't go too early because just like the Japanese, they don't open their doors until exactly time. It's a small cozy space. They have limited seating: a small private room fit for a party of 4-6 people and then they have the sushi bar space for kaiseki. Make sure you get reservations because they only do two dinner seatings a night. We had two main chefs and two female waitresses. The waitresses our meals and described what we were tasting. One of the waitresses had a very strong accent, and it was hard to make out what she was saying. But overall, Service was very professional and great! Both the chefs were highly acclaimed; with one being a James Beard award winner with over 30 years experience! The establishment is very clean, and we like the fact that all the chefs wore gloves while preparing our dishes. Everything was presented beautifully and neatly. Overall taste was very good. I especially liked all the different foam and science techniques used to make the different sauces. It was subtle, but had an impact in flavor! It was Our second time trying a Kaiseki meal, which I do enjoy because you get a wider variety compare compared to an Omakase meal. My two favorite dishes were: *Kawarizara: Grade A5 wagyu grilled over bincho-tan topped with foie gras, truffle and BBQ sauce on the side * O-toro tartare topped with uni large hand roll. These two were excellent! I have to admit it was very opulent and rich; you can't eat too much of it. Overall, a good experience; I would recommend it.
I tried the March Special menu $290 pp. Well worth it. Service was great. SAKE options are plenty. Love the dining experience.
We came for the kaiseki menu during restaurant week and had a great time! We called for reservations but if you're looking for the usual menus, you can make your reservation online. We picked the 5:30 pm seating on Monday and there were three other parties of 2 dining with us. The food was executed well and looked fantastic. There were a few bumps in terms of experience from the wait staff but not major. We didn't leave stuffed but we weren't hungry either. One of the parties that night picked one of the regular menu offerings and had more dishes than us. I would come back for another menu offering.
I can't believe I forgot to do a review for this place. It's been awhile since I last ate here so I'm not going to share pictures from that tasting. I did the highest tier with my girlfriend. We made a reservation in advance. We took an uber here from the strip. This was my first kaiseki experience and it left a positive impression. We were pretty satisfied with everything that we ate. The quality tasted exceptional. Service was fantastic. For our own experience, the price was worth it.

we have been to many of the local omakase spots and decided to try something different with kaiseki's waygu omekase. the ambiance is a bit more vegas compared to other places we have been. the service was good the food was mostly good but I think a little challenging to be more than one note with only the waygu to work with. I loved the Zensai dish, the tartar was outstanding. I think the sashimi was actually a bit tough and cold (vs cool or warm) compared to what I was expecting. the rice dish was on the sweet side for me its certainly a unique experience but I am not sure it is worth the cost. I might come back for their more traditional omakase! read more

I came here for my anniversary and it was such a great experience! I believe we got the shou menu which cost $210 per person. The inside felt very intimate since there was only about 8 seats if im not mistaken. We were greeted immediately by such friendly service. I forgot her name ugh but she was so knowledgeable on her sake. Every dish was made in front of our eyes with so much detail. The only complaint is that I wish there was more interactions with the chef. There was a small language barrier and I like it when our omakase experience is more involved and engaging. For the price point everything was such good quality however I didn't really leave full. I think the standout was the Wagyu and the dessert! Omg the dessert experience was so cool. You literally cut a piece of dessert off a tree and you poke it with a toothpick to reveal this ball of mousse. So unique!! read more

My husband and I were visiting in town and tried the omakase experience. We were served by Christina (spell check?) and Chef John. The experience was extremely pleasant. We were sat at a bar, in a room with 4 other individuals (3 sets of 2 total) and were given AMAZING service. Each course was made fresh and ingredients were imported directly from Japan. Staff took the time to explain each cut of fish, its origins and flavor profiles. The environment was calm, inviting and romantic. Chef John was very personable and gave a great amount of detail to his craft. Christina was very knowledgeable on the drink items and even recommended a great sake for us to try with our meal. Next time, we will likely do the sake paring with the omakase experience. This experience is as personal as you make it, be sure to plan for a fun night with wonderful staff! read more

Tucked quietly away from the typical Vegas noise and glitz, Kaiseki Yuzu delivers a truly refined and rare Japanese dining experience that's hard to find outside Japan--let alone in Las Vegas. With only eight seats at the counter, this intimate setting immediately signals that what you're about to experience is not just dinner, but a cultural ritual. Service is precise, warm, and respectful--never intrusive, but always attentive. The chef and staff move with a quiet confidence, creating a peaceful atmosphere that invites you to slow down and savor each course. The menu changes monthly based on seasonal ingredients, staying true to the spirit of kaiseki cuisine. Each dish arrives beautifully plated, balanced in taste, and thoughtful in composition--from delicate sashimi to perfectly simmered seasonal vegetables, charcoal-grilled fish, and intricate desserts that close the meal with subtle elegance. Nothing feels repeated or generic; every course reflects both mastery and a deep understanding of seasonality. This is not a place for loud conversation or casual dining. It's a serious dinner for those who want to experience the depth of Japanese culinary tradition in an intimate, respectful environment. If you're looking for the only true kaiseki experience in Vegas, this is it. read more

If I could give Kaiseki Yuzu more than 5 stars, I definitely would. The Shou Kaiseki course they offered here is simply superb. Each dish is meticulously thought out and very well made. My wife and I have been to 3 Michelin star restaurants before and we both agreed our experience here was way better. Super glad that my wife found this place. Thanks Chef Azeuchi. read more

composition: disappointing Culinary balance: missing Technique vs. taste: too much flair, not enough flavor logic I will not return. And frankly, I hope others approach this place with caution. It feels like more and more restaurants in Vegas are leaning into social media hype, relying on influencer buzz rather than genuine culinary skill. Kaiseki Yuzu, unfortunately, seems to be one of them. Don't get fooled by the flash--trust your palate. read more

Booked this place for my partner's birthday, and everything was amazing! Fresh seasonal ingredients. Good pace of serving dishes. Felt full but not overly stuffed at the end. We got the basic tier omakase (CHIKU) $165 per person. The other guests next to us had the luxury tier omakase (SHOU) $210 per person, so we got to compare the two. Honestly, chiku was such a good value - shou came with uni, scallops, and better cuts of meat, but the amount of dishes were the same (i think??). They have different chefs with different specialties making the food - so the fish expert, tempura expert, and then all else expert lol. Ours was the fall menu, and I just love how innovative they were with all the dishes. Everything had something we enjoyed! We both had lived in Japan for 3 years, so we know what good Japanese food is, and all the dishes wow'd us!! As mentioned earlier, it was my partner's birthday, so when I booked over the phone, I asked if they could write Happy birthday in Japanese, and they wrote it on a note and had it on the table when we arrived. Not only that, but they had a little happy birthday chocolate placard for his dessert! So sweet and accommodating! If you have allergies or food items you don't enjoy, you should call in and let them know! Great job Kaiseki Yuzu team!! Will come again for special occasions!! read more

A friend had made reservations for us as they frequent this place. Just keep in my their menu is not always the same since its kaiseki and they put together a course meal. I'm not sure if I just went on an off day, but the food was mediocre and heavily centered on uni aka sea urchin which I personally am not a fan of. The way my friend described prior dining experiences, there was maybe 1 dish with uni, but this time around there was at least 3 to 4 out of the 9. The staff is very friendly and nice. Its def cozy spot. One large table that seats I believe 6. When we had gone, it was the 4 of us only. So def more of a private ish dining experience. But I wouldn't come back to dine here tbh. I felt like I wasted my money unfortunately. And we went all out and got the most expensive package. My friend felt hella bad bringing me here.

A truly phenomenal experience. It's so beautiful to watch these amazing chefs prepare tiny morsels filled with flavor. Every bite is a delicacy and every plate a piece of art. We did the chiku menu for my birthday and we were so full at the end. The most beautiful ambiance and impeccable service every step of the way! read more

This is an absolutely amazing restaurant! There are separate rooms, one for sushi-based omakase and one for kaiseki (which is for different techniques). The staff were friendly. The music playing in the sushi room was calming and the interior was beautiful. This is a special place and I would definitely come back again for another special occasion! read more

This is by far one of my most favorite dinning experience I have ever had. It was an enjoyable, Kaiseki meal I have ever indulged in!! The menu consisted of a combination of hot and cold dishes, paired with a variety of saki. Chef Azeuchi has recently been nominated for the James Beard award! He creates special dishes that are only available seasonly. Making this a must try location. It is a intimate experience. The restaurant only seating about 20 people (or less) per reservation time!! Book ahead of time!!! See menu pictured for the courses! read more
One of the best dining experiences in Vegas, like truly a hidden gem. Or maybe not because it was really hard to get a reso last year and the place was packed with people! But yenno.. iykyk The good: - I went to Japan for the first time for Xmas and honestly this place felt so authentic to the Kaiseki and sushi spots I was in Tokyo. You are literally transported to Japan when you come in here-- the architecture, art, service and food.. yep - every bite was special in its own way. I really enjoyed the pieces that I thought looked plain, and that was very humbling for someone like me - I just love this place... excited to come back. They made our anniversary very special as well with a little dessert The meh: It was perfection, no mehs read more

Food: another delicious Kaiseki meal. We had the Chiku menu, which is the lower tier menu at $165 per person and was comprised of 9 beautifully thought out and designed seasonal dishes. Each a work of art and wonderfully different textures and tastes to please. Service: always impeccable. My japanese mother was even impressed! We took her there to celebrate her birthday. They even accommodated me and were able to give me fish instead of beef during the grilled course since I don't eat meat. Ambiance: I requested the private room and although you can't reserve it, we were fortunate enough to get it, so I was very pleased at the privacy. Tip: you need to reserve with a credit card and cancellation policy is 48 hours in advance or you will be charged in full due to the uniqueness of their meals. This is a wonderful place for a special occasion. Highly recommend! read more

Fabulous authentic Japanese Kaiseki worth the splurge! Dining here made us miss our time living in Japan. Very polite, attentive staff that takes pride in their service. Sitting at the sushi counter is by far the way to go so you can soak it all up watching the chef's meticulously prepare each course. Every course was absolutely delicious! Very small intimate dining experience with only 8 spots at the sushi counter and two side private rooms for two people each. They only have two dinner seatings, one at 5:30pm and the other at 8pm. Doors open promptly at 5:30pm and there is not a waiting area or bar if you arrive early. It's important to arrive on time since they only have two dinner times and all guests courses are prepared and served at the same time. They have an alcohol menu with wines, sake, beer, and whiskey. Be sure to allow the full two hours for your meal. Highly recommended if looking for a delicious & authentic Japanese meal! read more

Came here for the last omakase of 2025. Was intimate with only 8 guests, 2 waitresses, 2 chefs and the owner. Beautiful 50ft wood epoxy table. Hand wipes were prepackaged but the food was amazing. Everything fresh, flown in from Japan that day. Will be back again. read more

Wow. The omakase is amazing. Light, rich, refreshing, fulfilling. Very well paced dinner with varying flavors and hot, cold, room temperature for optimum texture and flavor. We had the shou menu january 2024. Atmosphere is very nice, don't forget to look up and watch the chefs prepare rhe dishes if you are at the bar seating area. They also had a selection of Japanese whiskies. suntory hibiki harmony, hibiki17, hibiki21. I didn't ask how much unfortunately. It wasn't on the menu. Thank you Chef Kaoru Azeuchi and team for a memorable birthday dinner for my friend and I! read more

No - while there are 2-3 menus, they're all course menus.
Is there a dress code?
Hi dress casual is what would work best here. Quaint place for a date nite.

I want to make a reservation for the omakase experience. Is there a way to do this online? Or do I have to call?
I had to call to make the reservation. If you want to do the sake pairing option with your omakase/kaiseki course, you need to request it at the time of booking as well. They also take a credit card for deposit reasons as they order ingredients…
Can the sushi/raw fish course be substituted for something else if someone doesn't eat raw fish?
When you make a reservation, they ask you to pre-order the course you'd like. The menu can be found on their website. At the time of reservation you can ask about substitute for raw items
How much for the meal set?
They have three different levels of Kaiseki at $100, $150 and, $200 respectively.
Is this the same restaurant at Silverado ranch next to the auto shop?
Yes. Same awesome chef and Maiyumi. Best kept secret.
