**Overall: 4.75 Stars** Imagine omakase but with a show. That's what you get here at Kyara Sake Bar. I went to Kyara on a date, but it wasn't the quiet or romantic kind of place I thought it'd be. Kyara had great service but they visit you every few minutes and explain things before each dish and they may cook something in front of you or show you the fish (like the actual real whole fish from the same catch you'd be eating)! When we were about to be served the wagyu beef dish, we were shown the certificate and our server explained all about the cow. I felt like I knew all about Bertha and joked that we just went through her photo album and yearbook. Like how was I supposed to eat Bertha now?!! Aiyahhhhh. Kyara may not be the romantic type of restaurant, but it was more memorable and more of an experience! It had may "wow" moments. read more

If you're looking for a Omakase intimate setting, this place is it. We arrived at 830ish- no wait and were greeted and seated by a friendly young man. We had a choice for bar or table and we chose table. It was tucked in a corner so it felt intimate for me and husband. Menu was filled with some of our faves and some new things we never tried. Skewers were great esp the Wagyu- it was so good and tender. We enjoyed the agadashi tofu with was one of our faves here. Food was overall delicious and you can taste the freshness of the fish. We def want to come back and experience their dinner specials. Definitely a place to try if you're in the area read more

We loved this place! We ordered individual pieces and got about as much as we would have for an omakase and only paid $350 for both of us. Shima Aji and Kanpachi were amazing. Everything was so tender and flavorful read more

Vegas is spoiled with late night Japanese eats, and this is among the best of them. Omakase Kyara Sake Bar is the latest incarnation of Kyara at this little spot at Jones and 215. I first visited it when it was Kyara Japanese Tapas, then had a nice little meal in their short stint as Ramen Kyara, and finally made time to see them in their current form. Well, sorta. Although a lot of people come for the omakase, I deliberately waited until 9pm for their late night izakaya menu (FYI, last seating 12:30am / last call 12:45am), where a la carte takes center stage but quality doesn't seem to decrease at all. The iced green tea (cheap but apparently omitted from the check) was a ubiquitous but pleasant refreshment, especially since their complimentary water is served at room temp. I also had a little of my friend's "Demon Slayer" ($14.75 small portion) hot sake, which was pretty standard flavor with some mild sweetness. My nigiri orders, all 1 piece per order, arrived first. King Salmon ($4.50) was a deeper orange but still very tender salmon. Kanpachi ($6.50) was as delicious as usual. Chu Toro ($6.25) and O Toro ($7.00) were both similarly fatty and awesome cuts of tuna, meaning the O Toro wasn't actually fat-forward. I enjoyed both pieces regardless. Age Dashi Mochi ($6.95) caught my eye from their Fresh Pound Mochi Special menu, and I quite liked it. It was viscous but very soft mochi and had enough breading to soak up the age dashi flavors and toppings, and the mochi had a little intrinsic flavor unlike the tofu which this recipe was inspired by. Kanpachi Jalapeno ($21.95) was my friend's sashimi order, and it was the only real miss. It wasn't unpalatable at all, but it was just really pricy and the fish flavor didn't quite hold up against the sauce. Skewers showed up next. The Pork Jowl ($4.75) was super tender and moderately fatty, and it took on the tare flavor nicely. I felt no need to pursue any pork belly orders after that. The Chicken Oyster ($4.25) was rich and just tender enough, and unlike at the popular Chinatown-area restaurant named for chicken, it was actually in stock here. I tried a little of the Onsen Tamago ($4.50) app, which they served cold with ikura, green onion, shredded nori, and sauce. The egg had perfectly silky egg white and runny yolk, and the additional toppings were harmonious together. Once I asked about it and learned that the Ama Ebi ($12.25) on the white board was a nigiri order leftover, I went for it. It was a larger shrimp than I usually see, and it came with the deep fried head. Both the body and head portions were great, and the thin lemon slices were a great complement when eaten whole with the head. My last order was a non-dessert of Wagyu Tsukune ($6.00). The interior was delightfully pink and tender, as if this were the perfect slider filling you never seem to be able to find. The beef was already delicious with the tare, and the unadorned onsen tamago was just gilding the lily. Go to Omakase Kyara for high-quality Japanese food. I'm sure the omakase courses are worth pursuing for a special occasion, but consider late night or perhaps the similar / equivalent a la carte as well, especially if you know what you want out of an izakaya type of menu. read more

Chef Winston and team keep getting better! The Omakase here is excellent, and you can't beat the $88 price tag. Melt in your mouth otoro, fresh uni, the list of Japanese white fish , and the king salmon are phenomenal. Looking forward to landing a tuna cutting seat soon! The chawanmushi is on my list of best bites in Vegas, and I eat a ton of bites. We had such am awesome time that we headed over to Winston's bar GastroPUB Nisei bar and grill when we finished. Look for that 5 star review next. If you haven't been, I'm sorry. Get in the know and go read more

Attended their Tuna event a couple months ago and it was by far one of my favorite dinner experiences! The food was amazing, the atmosphere was warm, and the service was on top of it. Some highlights outside of the actual course were taking a shot out of the tuna's head, watching the tuna get prepared, and Phil's special nigiri (costs extra) read more

Went to Omakase Kyara solo and sat at the bar--honestly such a great experience. Staff were super friendly and welcoming, which made it really comfortable dining alone. The vibe is cool and casual, not too formal. I did the Ume course and everything was delicious and well put together. Definitely worth checking them out. read more

I just concluded my dinner here at Omakase Kyara for their Father's Day special menu. I have to say their menu is spectacular and worth the money!! Their tuna, salmon, and yellowtail sashimi is very fresh! The oysters were really good but they were quite small. My most favorite is the Hannnari A5 Wagyu!! I must have eaten at least five 20oz medium rare!! They have other selections but nothing different from other Japanese cuisine I've eaten at. The place has a nice ambience and the service was excellent!! For $125.00 per person I would definitely go back to this place when they do another special menu!! read more

first time trying kyara for me and my boyfriend's 6 year anniversary and it was amazing!!! :3 we got the ume omakase and i loved every single course. i personally dont like mushrooms (was in the seasonal vegetables and the chicken mushroom mushroom chawanmushi) but i enjoyed everything regardless :) i am usually a salmon person but i was blown away by the tuna, i especially enjoyed the akami tuna with truffle. also this was the BEST scallop and uni i've ever had! the basque cheesecake dessert was sooo good service was exceptional from the very beginning! i forgot to ask the names of the staff that took care of us but we were always checked up on and they even gave us some extra dessert that said "happy anniversary" :') read more

So delicious! Been to Kaiseki Sanga and this place costed less than half and tastes way better. I've been to Ito as well and although that's good, it was way too expensive. This is truly the best spot for quality food and my favorite omakase in Vegas. read more

Worth every dollar$. This was an ultimate experience. Our reservation was the 1st of the evening. We got the best seats at the sushi bar. From selecting the sake cup, sake, selecting the omakase option to the finish... we can not say enough of how wonderful this experience was. We are not from the area. So I was hesitant to book a dinner at a restaurant outside of a big hotel. But this did not disappoint! They SHOULD be in one of the major hotels! read more

Overall, Omakase Kyara Sake Bar is a decent choice. If I could go back in time, I would have opted for their a la carte menu instead of the omakase menu. I personally cared more about the nigiri then their appetizers. The appetizers were alright, nothing special and definitely not worth the omakase price. A la carte in fact may be cheaper and more worth your money if you just want nigiri. After our omakase menu, we opted for extra nigiri from their a la carte menu and that took over 20 minutes. Towards the end, the service was really slow and we had to remind our server of our missing food. read more

My go to sushi spot! If you're looking for the freshest cuts of fish then this is where you should be going to. I usually get the same thing which is otoro, hand rolls, and the sashimi platter. You can tell that they pay close attention to their sashimi quality because it's always fresh. Love coming here for happy hour! Definitely sit at the bar for the full experience. Service is always great! The girls in the front are warm and inviting. If you're looking for fresh quality sushi then Kyara is your go to. Especially if you're trying to get away from the strip. read more

Thank you for the great service, Isaac! We did the Matsu Omakase. We came with a party of 6. Food was spaced out nicely. We were able to enjoy each course and it was fun to critique with each other at the table. The ambiance is chill and spacious with mellow music. Food was amazing! The experience was worth it. #2016Isabella read more

We came here a few weekends ago, but I still think about the experience we had! Omakase Kyara serves a quality omakase for a good price! The courses were thoughtfully prepared. We got seated in a booth, but there is bar seating around the chefs. The duality seems perfect to choose if you want something more quiet or more lively! Our serves were Lily, Kinasa, and Brandon, and they were all so kind, making sure we were taken care of and explaining the menu for each course! Thank you guys again for the experience! read more

This place is incredible. The vibe, service, and especially the food. Izakaya's are my favorite places to go and this is easily top 5 including the ones I visited in Japan. Order everything but encourage you to avoid all rolls and try new things. Everything I had was great. See pics. read more

Girls night was a success at Omakase Kyara Sake Bar! Seriously the BEST sushi I've had in Vegas. Chef Winston Matsuuchi is a genius! We did the sake tasting with the chef's selection and it was the perfect pairing with everything. We tried the Ume ($88) and Matsu ($118) Omakase options, plus Uni & Caviar roll ($48), fresh oysters ($4 each), and surf & turf roll OMG. Each dish was a flavor explosion! Well WORTH IT for the quality and experience. read more

This was the Take tasting menu was $118. The ambiance was lively and the lighting was soft and intimate. The server was very attentive and managed the timing of the meal appropriately. The food was dressed to highlight the fresh flavor of the main ingredient. The sashimi quality was 5/5 I liked some better than others but overall very satisfied. Good food exactly what I was craving. 1. Cherry tomato with bonito flakes, shiso flakes dressed in a yuzu vinaigrette. - bright combination, all of the flavors are distinct and bold. Salty fish flavors from thin melting bonito flakes, salty pickled Ume shiso flakes lightly busting, distinct bright yuzu vinaigrette. Bold first 2 bites. Love the introduction to chefs style 2. Asparagus grilled in olive oil seasoned with salt. - perfectly grilled tender young asparagus grilled in olive oil then salted. Simple dish highlights quality of the asparagus and attentive grilling techniques. 3. shrimp Chawanmushi with a dollop of uni on a bed of ikura topped with edamame. - Silky dashi flavored steamed egg topped with refreshing bursts of ikura and salty fresh uni. The edamame was a very Japanese touch that ties this Japanese dish together. 4. Meatball with katsu sauce garnished with furakake. - Another savory very Japanese dish. The nori was an authentic garnish that livens the flavors. 5. Yuzu Shigoku Oyster. - 10/10 freshness and preparation. Simple yuzu vinaigrette highlights the sweet firm oyster meat. Should have been served as a 2nd course alone because it requires time to savor before another dish. 6. Jellyfish with crushed sesame seeds, chili flakes dressed in sesame oil. - my first time having jelly fish and the texture was lightly crunchy chewy texture with a pleasant sesame flavor. 7. House made tofu topped with ikura. - the ikura flavored the cold almost set unflavored tofu, giving desirable texture. 8. 10 sashimi. - Chu toro with Belgian caviar. Tuna with truffle bonito flakes. Hamachi with salt and lime. New Zeland salmon with lemon. Red snapper yuzu green chili. Red snapper red chili paste. Unknown fish with cured in kelp sheet with ume paste. Hokkaido scallop. Ebi lime. 9. Koshigari rice and nori sheets. 10. House soup. read more

Terrible service!! Came here with my husband for our anniversary and took almost 2 hours for our omakase dinner. The food was just average. The owner sat at the table next to us talking to some people then got up and sat at the bar the rest of the time we were there. Poor management for sure. For over $200 and barely anyone in the restaurant, the service should have been better. Definitely not recommending this place. read more

Omakase Kyara was amazing. Most guests at our table chose the omakase sets, but I went à la carte and ordered the sashimi set, the hamburger steak with demi glaze, and some yakitori. Everything looked great, and my dishes were all really tasty. I'm so glad we came here and already can't wait to be back. We were a large party and the service was friendly overall. It was a bit slow at times, but they ended the night by giving us all sake shots, which was a fun and thoughtful touch. read more

We were asked to come back for the same omakase courses free of charge. This time everything was perfect! I'd absolutely come back.

We found this place based upon yelp reviews. Could not have been happier with our experience! Our server was fantastic in guiding us through the offerings. We were there after the Omakase menu, but actually had preferred it. Standouts were the miso, black cod, the Torah roll, and don't even get us started on the homemade soy sauce! By the way, the wasabi seemed to be also homemade and very fresh - incredible! I can't say enough about this place. And for the two of us, we walked out the door for a little over $100 including sake and a beer. What a win! And oh yeah it's off the strip, which for us was a huge value ad. read more

Favorites were the motsunabe- very light but flavorful broth and the skewers! Service was great, and parking was easy. It'll definitely be a new late night spot to hit up. read more

Omakase Kyara Sake Bar - 9 piece set - Japanese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Kyara is one of my favorite Japanese places to go to with a wide variety of quality food. You have the option of sushi, skewers, izakaya and even Omakase all in one location. This is right off the freeway and you don't have to go all the way to Spring Mountain for quality Japanese food. All of the food is quality and anything you choose will be amazing. They have variety of meat and veggie skewers. They even have A5 wagyu skewers which I'd highly recommend if you haven't tried it. Sushi wise you can't go wrong with tuna (akame, toro, otoro) as everything they have is fresh. The only thing is that I believe they have different menus depending on what time of the day you arrive. We arrived late night which offered the late night menu (9pm-1am) but all the options were still great food items. They provide three different types of sitting arrangements. One is at the bar which provides you an open view of the chefs at work, a booth that gives more of a Japanese setting and another open area that may feels more of like a drinking/izakaya feel. The service is really good in the beginning, but once you have your food it may be harder to track someone down. You'd have to kind of flag them down since they may be busy helping other customers (just like any other restaurant). So make sure you order enough food so you won't have to wait so long if you realize you're not full yet. read more

There were 6 of us and we had reservations for a Friday at 7pm. We were seated promptly. We intentionally came here at this time in order to try their omakase. We all ordered the Matsu Omakase ($138). We were told that the difference between the Matsu and Take options is the wagyu that comes with the Matsu option. Everything served had great presentation and all had very good quality. This was such an amazing experience - kudos to Chef Winston! Price is reasonable. Our server Jean was nice, friendly and accommodating. Ambience - well-lit, clean and not too loud. A few regular tables and also bar seating. Highly suggest making reservations. Located in a complex - lots of parking. Definitely coming back here. read more

Been wanting to take my girlfriend to a place that offered Omakase and I chose this place since I'm not big on sushi and they actually had a good amount of options for me. My girlfriend chose the Take Omakase and two days later she is still blown away by all of the great flavors of the different dishes as well as the sashimi. Her faves were the oyster appetizer, the fatty tuna? With caviar sashimi and of course the salmon sashimi. Oh, and we both loved their Lychee cocktail. Full of lychee flavor and didn't really taste the alcohol. I got a couple hand rolls (snow crab California and unagi with avocado) and some skewers (A5 Wagyu with foie gras butter, chicken thigh, chicken cartilage, & bacon wrapped asparagus). The chicken cartilage was by far my fave, I probably could've easily eaten ten of them. I was excited to actually try the A5 Wagyu because where else would you be able to try a smidge of this expensive steak without breaking the bank too bad? It was super rich and fatty, pretty much how I expected it to be. The service was excellent, consistently checking if we needed anything and apologized for any wait. They explained all of the Omakase dishes and made the experience extra fun. They also asked if we were celebrating anything and we told them it was my girlfriends birthday last week, so they ended our meal with a little matcha mousse cake with a candle. I thought it was gonna be dense and dry, but it was super delicious and every bite just melted in your mouth. We would definitely like to come back on another trip out here. I'm gonna constantly be dreaming about the chicken cartilage skewers. read more

I went here for their Valentine's Day special earlier this year and it was a fantastic evening. I made a reservation a week in advance and spots filled up very quickly! Upon entry, the place had a classy, calm atmosphere. Felt very clean. A smaller more intimate venue. Has an open kitchen concept and a lot your orders are given right over the counter which is super fun. A huge selection of drinks and wines; honestly endless. The sashimi here is so fresh, tender and thick. We also tried the oysters and miso soup which were also great. An amazing time with my girlfriend. Everyone was also super friendly and chefs are always available for a small chat or laugh. Will be back!! read more
