    Truffle oil salmon
    Jeannine H.

    Dark, moody, and barely lit--in the best, most dramatic way. You step inside and it's like walking into a dream of cherry blossoms against rich, dark wood, with just pops of pink and black. Simple, striking, and seriously beautiful. We kicked things off with matcha martinis--small but mighty, just enough to spark the mood for everything that followed. Then came the lineup: chili rice, chili crab rice, a surf and turf roll, truffle salmon, edamame, and a pineapple upside-down cake with pistachio ice cream that sealed the deal. Every bite? Worth it. I'd order the whole thing again without blinking. Flavors were bold, combos were on point. Service hit that sweet spot--warm, attentive, but never hovering. You could tell she cared without making it a whole production. Plates disappeared quietly, like magic--efficient and totally unobtrusive. As the night picked up, so did the energy. The room got lively, a little loud, with club-style music that you wouldn't expect--but somehow, it worked. And it wasn't just a young crowd either, so don't picture a full-on nightclub scene. Would I go back? Absolutely. Just know--the prices match the vibe: very much Strip-level, not off-Strip bargains. But for the experience? Totally worth it.

    Love the ambiance of this place, they had a really good DJ (not sure if this is nightly, we went on a Saturday night). The food was amazing, my friends and I did family style and shared the veggie fried rice, dragon roll, and rainbow roll. Definitely recommend all 3. The staff were friendly and professional.

    We had a great experience at Komodo at the Fountainebleu! The very attractive, eye-catching room decor was awesome as well as the low lights. The music was perfect and the service was friendly and attentive. Their Asian-fusion dishes were out of this world! We ordered the Chilean sea bass and the Surf &Turf Fried Rice with Wagyu steak and Maine lobster! Both were fantastically delicious. Our cocktails were delicious. We appreciate our server, Nataly, who did a wonderful job of taking care of us. We will be back on our next trip to Vegas.

    10/10 the Surf and Turf Fried Rice was great best fried rice I've ever had. The Waygu Beef Ribs delicious, and our server Maggie was amazing so joyful and helpful. Highly recommend will definitely be back.

    Tucked away in the food court area of Fontainebleau. Upscale Asian restaurant with a modern and lively ambiance. Perfect for couples or larger groups. Dishes are meant to be shared family style. The service was attentive and friendly. Food was pretty good with the exception of the miso lava cake which I wouldn't recommend. The overall experience was exactly was you would expect from a Vegas resort but I wouldn't call it anything spectacular. Definitely worth a try but I don't think it'll be one of our regular spots. Atmosphere: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Food: 4/5 Value: 3/5 Total: 4.25/5 Price: $$$ Rating Criteria: 1/5: Terrible, would not recommend 2/5: Might be worth it depending on price and other factors. 3/5: Solid option. Average in this category for the area. 4/5: Above average and excels in this area. 5/5: Excellent, needs no improvement Pricing Criteria: $: $0 - $50 per person $$: $50 - $100 per person $$$: $100 - $200 per person $$$$: $200 - $500 per person $$$$$: $500+ per person *Please keep in mind that reviews are based on personal experience which may differ from person to person based upon a multitude of factors (individual/specific workers, time of day, personal preferences, etc). Pricing may also differ and is reflected here based on what we paid for our meal.

    Spicy tuna roll
    Sherrein W.

    Came for my gf's birthday dinner. Upon arrival, there were some issues with the reservation so the birthday girl spoke to the hostess to resolve the issue. As they were discussing the reservation, I noticed that the hostess had a very condescending tone with her which I noticed right away. Another hostess showed up and called someone to confirm our reservation then everything was fine. I feel as tho if there's an issue and the guest is being understanding then the hostess shouldn't have an attitude. That was my only issue which sucks cause the hostesses are your first point of contact when you arrive at the restaurant. Now Back to the real reason why we were there. We ordered a bunch of food to share. Started with cocktails, apps, entrees and dessert. The standout dishes were the spicy tuna roll and the skirt steak. The spicy roll was so good! I love the crunchy component added to the roll. Adds a nice texture. My favorite was the skirt steak. The marinade was perfection! Salty, sweet and the dipping sauce paired together was delicious. Would definitely order it again! The drinks are always good here. I love the red interior and low lighting of the restaurant. The music was going! RnB which I can appreciate.

    LOVED IT! Every thing we had was spectacular. Shishito Peppers, Korean Fried Chicken, Dim Sum Wagyu Beef, Crispy Eggplant and Lobster Shumai. Had a 2015 Bruenello and it was the icing on the cake. A must do if you are visiting Vegas

    The service was so good. Abel was the bartender who took our order and he was attentive and friendly. We ordered shishito peppers and when they came, they had bonito flakes on top. Very pretty but I'm not a seafood eater at all. He saw I was picking through the peppers and ordered a new plate without the bonito flakes. So kind. The A5 New York wagyu was melt in your mouth but better than even that!!!!! My husband had the Omakase traditional and it was a beautiful presentation and top notch quality. It is very much a dance club atmosphere but still a restaurant. Not sure if it turns into a club after or where people would dance... but that vibe is hittin. If you go... splurge a little... this is that place!

    Amazing ambience, superb food and top notch service! Their menu is very well done and has lots of delicious diversity. The sushi melts in your mouth, and the spirits are very well presented! We had an excellent experience and I recommend this restaurant!! The bar is first come first serve but for the restaurant I recommend making reservations in advance.

    Omgaaa whatever you do make reservations at this restaurant, located in Fountainbleau Hotel!!! I don't care where you're staying go here :) not only does it have a Vegas atmosphere with music playing but the food and drinks were amazing! Waygu Waygu Waygu! Is all I can say and the drinks were made right ;)

    Sashimi menu
    Yaniv M.

    I honestly don't understand how this place doesn't have a full 5 stars. From the moment we walked in, everything just felt right. The service was great, very attentive but not over the top, and the staff made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. The food was really impressive. Everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor. The sashimi in particular was amazing, you can really taste the quality. I've been here a few times already and every time it's consistent. One of my favorites is the Bluffing Tuna Maki, I've ordered it more than once and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is also a big part of why I like this place so much. Good music, a fun vibe, and just an overall great energy that makes you want to stay longer and enjoy the night. I will definitely be coming back again. For me it's an easy 5 stars, honestly it deserves even more. The only thing I can think of is that it's not cheap, so maybe that's why some people don't give it a perfect rating. But in my opinion, you get what you pay for here. Totally worth it.

    The vibe at Komodo is truly unmatched the music, ambiance, and efficient service all come together perfectly. We sat at the bar on a Saturday night and were lucky enough to snag three seats. The restaurant is huge, and the food absolutely delivers. We ordered the edamame, surf and turf roll, hamachi roll, spicy tuna roll (the crunch was mm mm good), beef dumplings, shrimp dumplings, surf and turf rice, sea bass (slightly overcooked), and the fried chicken the sauce was so good. The drinks were made to perfection. Overall, we were very happy with our experience and the high level of service.

    Hannah C.

    Made a reservation for this restaurant because their menu looked really good. The decor was really nice, pretty fancy for sure. Our server (I didn't catch her name) was really nice, she was funny and made the experience great. The crispy beef appetizer was good, but I didn't care for the dipping sauce it came with. The jadori chicken was good, but the umami flavor was a bit much. The fried rice was good too. My Pineapple Express drink was pretty good, the pikachu was smooth and so was the mule. The birthday dessert was really nice, made the experience more pleasant. The snickers bar dessert was my favorite! A must try. The only reason I took off a star was because it took so long to get checked out and pay, literally about 30-45 minutes. Overall great place to enjoy dinner though.

You'll find them on the casino floor and if you go left from Golden Circle Sports Bar, they're at the former spot of Las Vegas Yacht Club seafood restaurant. Inside is a lively atmosphere and very spacious, has elegant Japanese style latern and modern decor. You can dine at the bar or table, and there's ample seating. Soft opening was on September 1, 2025. They had their grand opening on October 3, 2025, the same day when they had their liquor license. They offer sake, wine, beer, and san miguel. Menu has a great selection of starters, soup, premiums, house specialty, tofu dish, noodle stir fry, noodle soup, fried rice, desserts and beverages. The Wor Wonton Soup ($18) is excellent and incredibly delicious! Soup broth is nicely seasoned and flavorful, has four big portions of pork & shrimp wontons, tender chicken, succulent shrimp, bok choy, shiitake mushrooms and carrots, it usually includes beef but I ask to omit, and I love how they're able to accommodate. It's so nice to meet Anthony, he's VP, and came by to my table to check in, asked how everything was, he's very welcoming and personable. I also met the head chef, Eduardo, he was the one who prepared the soup, it's superb! I wish more people know about this fantastic restaurant. Not a lot of people know about this hidden gem. Everyone in the staff is kind and accommodating, including Juan, he gave helpful directions where to find them. The dining area is immaculate, has high ceiling, and table seating can accommodate up to 250 people. This is not a traditional Chinese restaurant. Ace Dragon Wok primarily focus on guest curated experiences, and can customize any order especially for dietary needs for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free. The chef is well versed in Pan-Asian inspired cuisines, and everything is customizable to the region of preference, such as Malaysian, Indonesian, Tawainese, Japanese (excluding sushi), Filipino, Thai, Cantonese, Mandarin, Vietnamese, and Korean. This is all based on reservation, a minimum of two hours advance notice is needed before opening to allow the chef adequate time to prepare a customization menu. They also make their own five spice and chili oil. Service from Joaquin, Anthony, and Juan is very kind, welcoming, attentive, and friendly! Joaquin recommends to try Malay Curry Lime Salmon, it's a spicy dish but they can modify to make it not spicy which is great!

My friends enjoyed the fried bass lathered with savory and sweet fruits and veggies. The jackfruit is delicious! We also had medium rare steak that were sliced and lathered with sauce. It was tender and juicy. The chef gave us a bonus surprise which were the wok fried lobster tails. Thank you Chef AJ and Ace Dragon Wok team for the delicious food and warm welcome!

The restaurant was busy, but with a reservation we were seated within 10 minutes. Our server quickly came over to take our drink order and was very friendly. The restaurant's vibe was trendy and beautiful. For our appetizer, we ordered the edamame and crispy cauliflower. OMG--the cauliflower was delicious! It had the perfect crisp thanks to its light breading and was tossed in a spicy vegan mayo. Even though it had a generous amount of sauce, each piece still maintained its crispy texture. For our entrées, we ordered the Vegetable King Roll with king oyster mushroom, cucumber, avocado, and spicy miso. We also ordered the Truffle Mushroom Spaghetti with the added shrimp option. The spaghetti was perfect. The truffle flavor wasn't overwhelming, but it was definitely present and paired wonderfully with the rich mushroom sauce. For dessert, we ordered the vegan pistachio cheesecake with a side of coconut sorbet. It was so decadent and delicious. The portion was more than enough for the two of us to share and was the perfect way to end the meal. I highly recommend Catch and hope to go back the next time I'm in Las Vegas.

Even though we were staying at the Bellagio my husband and I made a last minute reservation online and came here for a late dinner. The restaurant is beautiful and has great vibes. From the entrance you can tell how pretty it's going to be inside and it did not disappoint. The hostess was not welcoming at all. She checked us in and said wait for our table which is being cleared up. After a few minutes we were seated, not in the mani dining room but the one on the right side which is not as pretty as the main but it's ok I know we made the reservations on that day. So no big deal. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. We started with edamame and shishito pepper. Both fresh and delicious. Then we ordered the ceviche and both of us loved it very much. To be honest both my husband and I were in the mood for sushi so we stuck to ordering sushi. Boy was that a disappointment. The Catch roll was not to our taste , it had crab salmon miso honey and the waiter used a torch to cook the salmon on top. It smelled so bad after he did that. Smelled burnt ... I didn't eat that roll after that. Then we ordered a few cut rolls like salmon tuna yellowtail ... all so basic and no taste. So so disappointing to serve this kind of sushi at a fine restaurant . So it turns out we would have been better off ordering non sushi items from the menu. We could have enjoyed our dinner. So after the last roll we called it a night and left. The reviews said they have excellent sushi but I don't think so. Now I wonder how everything else tastes here. Maybe one day I'll have a better experience with food here. Catch is a premiere place to be seen at I guess cause everyone was dressed up (by the way some very inappropriately) and taking so many pictures all over the restaurant.

We were here specifically for Restaurant Week and I have to say, good a really good deal considering the prices of some of the items we got. The Wagyu tartare alone was $52 already, and we spent $90 on a 3-course meal for RW. We had crispy rice tuna, Wagyu tartare, Chilean sea bass, filet mignon, cinnamon roll, and the smores cake. To drink, I had an old fashioned with a Japanese whisky. It was nice and oaky. The wife had the she so spicy which was excellent (I had a sip). Everything we ate was divine; the only thing we were a little disappointed in was the consistency of the crispy rice. We wished it would have been a bit more sushi rice consistency on the inside, but it was a bit too soggy. Everything else was amazing though, especially the sea bass.

It's not close to the side of town we're on which is far north west, Skye Canyon,, but we feel it's worth it! The waitstaff is always very attentive and knowledgeable when it comes to the menu. We actually come here often enough that we are very familiar with the menu and we always know exactly what we want to eat and drink! Sorry this review is so late but every time we go to Fremont Street we eat, have drinks and then we have a good time so I get sidetracked and forget to finish reviewing lol Overall, this is a really great restaurant. It's kind of small, but we've never really have to wait very long to be seated. The best part about it is, it's in Circa which doesn't allow anyone under 21 in the casino so we don't have to worry about those kind of large parties! (Just my personal opinion)

    Very good restaurant if you're craving Asian food. I came over here massively hungover and this was…read moreexactly what I needed. Great decor, ambience and staff. Very attentive and friendly. We got the brisky dumplings, pan seared. I Was expecting the small din tai fung sized ones with little filling, but these were FAT dumplings, with good amounts of brisket inside. WE got the brisket fried rice - also very good, and the garlic noodles. I really liked the char that the noodles and rice had. Only thing for me is that the fried rice and noodles seemed to have a little too big much oil in it. I don't think that's an indictment on 8 east itself, but more of a general Chinese/Taiwanese cooking method. But other than that, I would certainly come back again.

    I just move to Las Vegas from California so I would like to think I have a well rounded knowledge…read moreon asian cuisine. On social media I've been seen this restaurant "China Mama" been popping up when I browse my Instagram, so today I was set on having lunch at this establishment. When I walked through doors, I was fascinated at the interior design of the place, the walls, tables and lighting because it had an atmosphere of exclusivity in a foodie type of way however at the same time the staff and service was impeccable and very welcoming to newcomers. What I noticed when I sat down is the teapot, the plates and the menu, the reason why I mentioned those things is because in a typical chinese restaurant, you see a white/red plastic plate with a chinese design on the front of the plate with teapots and teacups that have some residue on them. Along with a sticky menu book that sounds like velcro when you pull the pages apart. Rest assured because the dining set at this restaurant is nothing like that and the level of detail the manager or owner put it in must be applauded because it displays that they care for their customers and uphold the highest level of sanitation. The plates and the teapot were immaculate and also the menu was colorful and clear where I didn't know what dish I wanted to pick because I was so astonished with how vibrant the menu was designed. For new restaurants I always conduct my version of a litmus test regarding food. For chinese restaurants I order fried rice and whatever special pork dish they have on hand to gauge the type of quality I can expect. I will say this, I've had homecook fried rice, traditional fried rice and my goodness is this fried rice really spot on when it comes to flavor, seasoning and cook temperature. I order the shrimp egg fried rice and everything was delicious from the star of the dish being the shrimp to the vegetables. The blend was so harmonious that I was silently eating and lost track of time due to it being cooked to perfection. Secondly, I ordered the twice cooked pork with spicy sauce and the tenderness of the pork was so heavenly I indulge in more after more, even when I was full, my body was pushing my hand to eat more because I subconsciously didn't want the sensation of the umami to fade. I have never had a pork dish like that in a chinese restaurant. It's a far drive from where I currently reside so ontop of the lunch I had I decided to order to dish for to go so I can have the experience again for dinner. I order the pan fried pork dumplings along with signature salted egg yolk prawns. As much as I want to encourage people to try the restaurants I share on reviews, I secretly want to keep this restaurant to myself and just keep it hidden so it dosent get packed in the near future where I have to fight over reservations. That being said, whomever is looking for the best pound for pound chinese restaurant in Las Vegas? CHINA MAMA is THE best hidden secret in this city. It was a wonderful experience and it will not be the last time I visit this extraordinary establishment. Update: I took my mom, brother and sister to try this restaurant that I have been endorsing. Let me tell you how the popularity of this restaurant skyrocketed. I got there at 11:30, put my name down for a wait list not even 5 minutes has passed and 4 more people came in to put their name down. After a 20 minute wait there was an additional 12 names that were on the wait list. Service was so fast, and the pan fried pork buns was informed to us that it would take 45 min to a hour to make, of course we ordered appetizer, entrées, to be served to us when it's ready, so in the mean time we can have some food in our belly before the pork buns but that gors to show how popular that food item is and how its taken off. The waiter that waited our table was so excellent that we tipped him 30%, he was amazing. He's chinese with black frame glassess.
