There are no words to describe how freaking amazing this place is. The sushi was phenomenal. Service was excellent. This was our second time at Morimoto and the second time was even better. We sat in the area where the sushi is created. It was amazing to watch them create so much in such a short amount of time. read more

Great food. Laid back atmosphere. Let them make your menu and be open to try anything. The black cod is to die for.

We dined here yesterday for our anniversary. The meal and service were exquisite. The Kakini hot appetizer (10 hour braised pork belly over conjee) was beyond amazing. We also enjoyed two sushi rolls, braised shishito peppers and the hot stone bowl pork and rice dish (the name escapes me). For dessert we had to try the fiery chocolate tart. They also gave us a complimentary apricot sorbet because we were celebrating our anniversary, which was also delicious. Would happily come back! read more

On Sept. 17 at around dinner time my husband and I tried this place since we were in town. Their menu was amazing. They have 100 combo sushi..all fresh...its 20pcs but worth it, it made in front of you. Our server was Mari who did a complete explanation of the specials and sake. She mentioned about the omakase which my husband ended up getting. It was paired by a nice $80 sake. The Price was worth the dining experience, service was on top , hip nice loud place , the reception was friendly we came on a busy hour 7pm but was accommodated by Saya and was sat by the friendly asian manager who also discussed a bit about the omakase since we asked her about it. We were seated by the bar area. read more

We were very disappointed with our dinner. We ordered chirashi bowl, sashimi chef's combination and duck fried rice. The best thing about our dinner was the duck fried rice. Sashimi and chirashi was not fresh. We'd probably won't go back. read more

Listen, do you want the a great meal, or do you want a great meal for the money?? Do you live in a major metro with quality food? If so, you're probably going to feel like you're overpaying for something you can get at home. I mean the food (got the tacos and cod, and flaming dessert) was good - it was great!!, but I can find something similar in my city for half the price. If you don't come from (or visit) A class cities often, this might be the best meal you've ever had read more

Excellent service, classy but comfortable environment, and thoughtfully crafted cuisine. Came here for the opening night and had an enjoyable evening. Each plate we ordered was delicious - my favorites were the black cod, calamari tempura salad, and yellowtail rolls. I tried the cheesecake and chocolate mousse. Both were great but the chocolate mousse was more memorable. read more

Remains my favorite restaurant and this one does never disappoints. Best sushi experience in Vegas. Amazing desserts. Wagyu is melt In your mouth goodness. Morimoto is The best Iron Chef without a doubt! read more

We made a reservation and we got promptly seated when we arrived. The atmosphere was casual, tables were close together so it was pretty loud overall. This place was not intimate. Food was really good! We ordered waygu beef carpaccio, toro tartar, curry snapper, duck fried rice and yellow tail roll. Duck fried rice was really salty. Yellow tail roll was nothing special. Our server was attentive and really nice and friendly. However, other servers kept on bumping into my chair repeatedly bc the tables were set too close to each other (this was the only reason why I wouldn't give it a 4/5 star..... read more

Truly an amazing experience from start to finish! My friends and I were looking for a place to get our sweet tooth fix and Morimoto was the perfect choice! Their unique selection of deserts were absolutely delicious! Doughnuts and Fiery Salty Caramel Chocolate Tarte were out of this world! Service was consistent and impeccable! Staff did an A+ job! Ryan did a very nice job with drink refills - server Katlyn was extremely friendly and attentive. Managers Jim and Jeff did an awesome job at table touching! If you are looking for that special place with a special touch this is the place to be! We will certainly be back again!! read more

Picked Morimoto for an anniversary dinner. I decided to dine there over Nobu because I wanted to try something new. Definitely should have gone with Nobu. We ordered an extensive list of different dishes, and found that while they were all average to good, none of them blew us away in any sense. That, when you end up with a $600 bill for 2, is a little tough to swallow. We left full & fairly satisfied, but very much expected to leave fantasizing about how soon we could come back. read more

The waitress was very knowledgeable and they accommodated my dairy allergy so well! Even though I was too full from my amazing lobster dinner for dessert,when the table ordered dessert she pointed out the portion that was safe for me in case I changed my mind. read more

Came to dinner with my friend to catch up and try Morimoto. The restaurant was beautiful right away from the outside walking by and even better in the inside. Matt T. was our server and he was very friendly and helpful when choosing what to order and what would be enough food. My favorite dishes from the menu that I tried were the Wagyu Beef Carpaccio, White Fish Carpaccio, and the Ribeye. Both managers Sandra and Karen stopped by at our table to see how our dinner was throughout the experience dining there which is a great touch because a lot of other restaurants on the strip you don't see that everytime when dining in a fine dining restaurant. I highly recommend trying Morimoto for any occasion casual or fancy it doesn't matter, you won't regret it ! read more

Truly amazing. We took the option of telling the waiter how much we wanted to spend per person and what came next was an amazing variety of food. Just loved it. read more

This is probably one of the best spots in Vegas. Great ambiance, friendly staff and delicious menu with many options. Katie our server is very well knowledge about the menu, Jeff and Jim the managers team will make you feel home and will not hesitate to help with anything needed including bussing tables. Thank you for making our dinner experience such a memorable night. Will definitely be coming back soon. read more

A highly anticipated night of fresh fish at the famous Morimoto restaurant at the MGM. Needless to say I was excited yet afraid to see what the pricing was like. With the Morimoto striped statue at the front with the bar area playing the basket ball game and national geographic type instrumentals in the background I figured we were at least due for an interesting night. The sushi bar looked cool and further back was a steak display just on the other side of the hibachi tables. It would have been cool to have been sat near either one of those areas however instead we were seated on the other side of a pillar which blocked our view of pretty much everything. So much for Feng Shui ehh? As far as the service goes it was ok. Nothing special.(maybe they didn't see us at times bec of the pillar?)Either way I did not feel as if I was at a 5 star dining experience or anything like that. The sashimi was fresh and I did enjoy some of these dishes. The sushi rolls were mediocre nothing special. The surf n turf we ordered looked good , however we ordered it rare and it came out well done. (they did not ask how it was and or even check the temperature upon serving the steak and the surf was just regular sashimi. All in all it was cool to try but I would not come back here unless I had to, at least not for a while. Being a local I know of a couple of places around town that are actually very comparable and if not better than Morimoto in Las Vegas. read more

They say that you get what you pay for, and the Iron Chef did not disappoint. Each dish we tried was beautiful and unforgettably delicious. Whitefish carpaccio was an appetizer salad hybrid perfect to start a meal. The kakuni was perhaps the greatest pork belly dish ever, and pork fat rules. The ishi yaki buri bop, prepared table-side, got better and better as it continued to cook to a crunchy delight. Service was impeccable, the restaurant itself very Japanese, simple yet elegant. Five star and definitely worth the heavy price. We will certainly return. If too pricy for you, the food court is right around the corner. read more

Tasty food and great waiter Matt! Didn't love the lady seating people at the bar who refuses to smile at everyone but luckily she isn't a server. Good was tasty and loved the cure cocktail selection for this spot. Ordered the Asian pear adult beverage and have to say it was super tasty and not too sweet. Matt my waiter was very helpful and patient with our table and loved having him for our evening. We started with the $100 sushi platter which is like 25 pieces of mixed assortment that is the chef choice. Loved all the pieces on the platter. Then we had to order the ribeye and ordered it medium but for those of you who like it slightly less runny just let it sit there on the 400 degree cast iron plate to finish off and it's perfect! The ginger sauce is really amazing and adds the most amazing sweet and savory touch to this perfect meat! After a bottle of cold sake and wine we had no room for dessert! $600 later including tip for 4 people it was a nice evening out on the strip. Will bring more out of towners here again for sure! read more

Original came here for a drink after a long day. I got the matcha mango fruit punch which was pretty good. My friend got the lychee martini and it was delicious. We decided to get something light, we asked the bartender what would suggest. We got these short ribs and hamachi tacos. Holy motherless goat, those hamachi tacos were the best snack tacos every. The shell is made from deep frying a gyoza wrap and it had guac, jalapeno and diced tomatoes. You need to get this as an appetizer. The short ribs were tender, good sauce but it's no fall off the bone kind rib. I'd come back here once in awhile because just ordering these the bill came out to $130. Those were some expensive tacos. Still great food none the less. read more

The ribs were an excellent appetizer. They were cooked perfectly and fell right off the bone. Very tasty with a good combination of different flavors. The two things I wouldn't wholeheartedly recommend would be the spicy green beans and angry chicken. They were on the salty side so not for everyone at the table but I still liked them. But the dishes others in my party ordered were admittedly better. Apple sauce pork, bimbambop with egg, duck fried rice with egg, and the oyster seafood dish. For dessert, we had the fiery chocolate tart and cheesecake soufflé with matcha green tea to drink. I'd recommend the chocolate tart over the soufflé but I enjoyed both. The matcha tea was a great compliment. read more

I didn't find this place amazing. The ribs and oyster fois gras were amazing. The 40-piece sushi platter for $180 was underwhelming - a few choice pieces, and the rest were what I'd expect at a bento box lunch place (the quality was great, but for what we paid we should have gotten more specialty sushi). The interior is pretty loud - a good party place. I'd take the money and go to Nobu inside the Hard Rock instead. read more

Saw this restaurant in Vegas magazine and wanted to try it. I like chef Morimoto and wanted to experience one of his restaurants. The food was excellent but the wait staff will try to up sell you every chance they get. This is an upscale place, not a used car lot. That part really annoyed me. Also this place is rather loud, you have music and noise from the hallway outside the glass. Keep in my this place is in the MGM Grand so you have to make your way threw the gauntlet of freaky individuals and smoke filled gambling areas to get to the place. So once I crossed the finish line I just wanted to chill and enjoy my drink and food, not be upsold. read more

Great food and great service! My husband is obsessed with all of the food he ordered! So good!

We debated for a couple hours where to go for sushi. Being that it was same day no reservations were available. We got there 15 minutes after they opened and were sat immediately, it was great! The food was amazing and some of the best sushi and especially sashimi we've ever had. Service was great and staff was super friendly. It is a little pricey but worth every penny!! Can't wait to go again. read more

Honestly reflecting on the experience we had at this restaurant I'm fairly surprised they have such high reviews. For being a high end sushi restaurant I would expect more and a higher quality than what we received. The prices of rolls are higher than typical roles but this place is categorized as a higher end restaurant. But for the price I'd say skip this place, all of the rolls were quite bland and not so flavorful. We were only in Vegas for a few days but feel we could've found a place better for a more reasonable cost. If you're staying at the MGM it may be conveniently to their location but you'll find better places in the area in no time. read more

The food is ordinary and overpriced., the service it's lazy, slow, We don't coming back!!!

Ok but way overpriced and not remarkably better than any other sushi place I've been.

... it has the name but not the soul or actual presence, it was painfully evident in the sushi

I have eaten Sushi all over and I have yet to taste anything as good or as fresh as here. The service is second to none, if you want a $4 California roll go to a grocery store. You get what you pay for and at Morimotos you get the best. I will definitely eat here every trip to Vegas I make. Sue is a little sweetheart and quite knowledgeable and friendly. The people in charge are always visible and very approachable. No way can you be disappointed. read more

such a cool atmosphere! I loved seeing the sushi made right in front of us. The wagyu beef was totally a mess up order, it was all fat. We got the fried rice (which they make at the table in a hot stone bowl which is so cool), shrimp tempura, calamari, cod fish, spicy tuna tacos, shishito peppers. Best sushi ive ever had. I wish we got more sushi instead of other entrees but it was all good. For dessert they brought us this chocolate ball which they melted with hot brandy for my moms birthday which was super fun. Loved it overall. Quite pricey. read more

i gave it 4/5 stars because of the price. It's a major mark up in price for his name and the hotel. Food. It was great! We stayed away from sushi and sashimi since we have plenty of good places in bay area. We ordered oyster w foie gras and uni. This was rich & flavorful! How can you go wrong with uni and foie gras in oyster?!? It is on the sweeter side. But it was still great. Def worth trying. green tea cold noodle. pass on it. For that $$ you can get better noodles at home. They cooked the noodle perfectly and sauce was good. Need more soy sauce/salt. Duck confi fried rice. two thumbs up! so good!! Def worth the try. My mom had a tonight's special w Alaska snapper w shaved caviar. She loved it. My husband and I had the yellow tail 'bop' and the pork 'bop.' (i forget the actual name of the dishes). Basically it's a bi bim bop in its fancy pantsy glory. Super tasty, but it was not worth $35 per 'bop.' Husband and i agree.. we'd probably pay $25 for it. Again the mark-ups due to his name. Then we had sorbet and fiery chocolate ball dessert. Both were delicious! Overall, great experience.. great food! Really tasty. Most of the dishes.. we gladly pay $5-10 less than what they charged. read more

I have been to plenty of sushi restaurants around Las Vegas and I by far, Morimoto has been on my list ever since I have been visiting every now and then. The first thing I notice was the service which was on point from start to finish! They take care of their guests in their house which is why I always return. Their presentation with rolls is phenomenal, their hot bowls are are amazing, their salad are so crisp, their pork chops just right, and not to mention their seafood soups with lobster! Their desserts are so light, sweet, and creamy! I recommend try them all!! If only I had the chance to take photos and videos, but the dishes are darn good, I honestly forgot ! You have to try it when you are in town ~! read more
