    I came here after my bodybuilding show because it was open late and my friend said that it was a sister restaurant of the 888 chains. I was SO excited because I was craving sushi and I also love 888! The nigiri was the only thing I ordered (after learning my lesson not to get rolls from another sushi buffet). It is also the only thing that is really worth it considering the rice to fish ratio is AMAZING. My favorites were the fatty tuna and Uni. The quality of the fish was also top notch and literally nothing was bad. Overall, I would definitely come here again and just get the nigiri. Totally worth your money!

    You know, every time we come here, it's always good service. Ron is really nice. We see him all the time we're there. He works really hard & knows what he's doing. This is my fave AYCE spot, especially for lunch, when it's really good prices. Plus, I'm really full for the rest of the day, till maybe a late night eats. Food comes fresh & quick. So yummy!!! I have my favorites & I actually have a list on my phone, so when ordering, I order them all at once & it's comes all at ones too. From there, I'll order other things on the menu if I decide. We first discovered this place when my husband was looking for a AYCE sushi spot when we were living in Vegas. From there, it became a favorite spot, a long with the family Restarants. (Neko etc) Now, that we're back as tourist to Vegas (since we moved back home to California,) we definitely keep this on our list of visiting & also brining friends too. #Sakana

    Ambiance: it's a trendy ayce sushi place located in a shared plaza, the parking lot could get full easily, moderate waiting time to get seated and it's worth it, it's quite packed inside, tables and sofa seats are set up back to back Service: their staff members are friendly and efficient, placed the order and cleaned the table adequately, also provided useful suggestions. Although one server made a mistake, she brought the dishes we order to another table, after other guests already checked the food with their used utensils, the server tried to serve the same dishes to our table, I said they've already touched the food, since they sat next to our table and I saw what happened and those dishes were siting in the wrong table for a while, she said she didn't know and placed another order right away. Honestly in professional, health-code-compliant restaurants, a dish served to the wrong table should not be served to another table, if it has already been placed on the table and has left the server's immediate control, and it should be considered contaminated. I believe it's an innocent mistake, but just unprofessional. Food: numerous choices on their menu for appetizers, skewers, nigiri sushi, hand rolls etc. The Shit - **** Chopped Salmon, white fish mixed with crab and deep fried, mixed flavors, recommend Pang - *** Lobster mix, Salmon, Cream Cheese baked on top of garlic bread, average Yakitori - ** very dry chicken Pork Belly - *** average Mini Udon - ** soggy noodles and salty broth Seaweed Salad - *** average Thor Special Hand Roll - *** Spicy Tuna, Spicy Crab, Shrimp Tempura, Jalapeno, Onion, Tomato, Kaiware, Mango 300 Hand Roll - **** Tuna, Salmon, Super White Tuna, Albacore, Ponzu, 300 Sauce, spicy taste, recommend Tuna - *** average Shrimp - ** dry Cajun Tuna - **** Garlic Ponzu, Fried Onion Mackerel - **** Garlic Ponzu Red Snapper - *** Ponzu, Hot Sauce Salmon - *** average Garlic Salmon - **** Garlic Ponzu Fresh Water Eel - *** average Squid - **** chewy Seared Lemon Salmon - **** Ponzu Octopus - *** Lemon Smoked Paprika Salmon - **** Yuzu Surf Clam - *** average Yellowtail - *** average Tamago - ** dry sweet egg Aomori Scallop - *** average Sarada Lobster - ** so so Albacore - *** Garlic Ponzu Salmon Egg - *** ikura Tobiko - **** flying fish roe Super White Tuna - ***** s.o. sauce, fresh and tasty, highly recommend Quail Egg - ***** unique texture, highly recommend Golden Spicy Tuna - * Deep Fried Spicy Tuna, Eel Sauce, Spicy Mayo, super dry and not so fresh No Name Roll - ***** soy paper wrap, In: Eel, Shrimp Tempura, Top: Salmon, Spicy Mayo, Eel Sauce, Crunch, creative and tasty, highly recommend Something Wrong Roll - **** seaweed paper wrap, In: Shrimp Tempura, Soft Shell Crab Top: Tuna, Salmon, White Fish, Garlic Ponzu, spicy and sour, recommend Affogato - *** Vanilla Ice Cream with coffee Deep Fried Banana - ** so so Price: decent quality and affordable prices, expect $35+ for a fulfilling meal

    Sakana All you can eat sushi offers all the classics as well as signature rolls for any sushi lover looking to get good food at great value. Sakana just has one pricing tier structure with lunch being $25.95 or dinner at $33.95. Coming here for dinner on a saturday night this place was filled to the brim with large parties waiting to be seated. Luckily my party of 2 was seated very promptly. Service was great with one staff member taking the order and team of servers delivering the food with lightning speed. When I go to AYCE sushi places my strategy is usually to order the specials that you can only order 1 time as it is generally their signature dishes. At Sakana their specials consisted of carpaccios of salmon, yellowtail and albacore which were pretty good. The slices are thin and the rice is minimal which I was fine with as going to AYCE its usually about volume. The quality of the fish was lacking in flavor and I get it with a price $33.95 its a great deal but none of the dishes really stood out. Most used heavy sauces or toppings to disguise the quality. There are so many rolls they have to offer and its almost impossible to try everyone so you have to be very selective or have to come up with a gameplan when eating at AYCE. Overall it was a positive experience and I can see why it is a popular place with every seat taken and patrons waiting to be seated. Its value cannot be beat with the extensive menu Sakana will have something for everyone.

    OK, I apologize in advance because I was not able to write down what every picture was because they serve their all you can eat sushi so fast we had so many plates coming in and coming out that I don't even think I took pictures of all of them, they were so delicious. Everything was fresh. The service was amazing. We went for a birthday celebration and they did not disappoint. My ice cream of choice was a Matcha green tea inspired ice cream. Literally, the sushi and the salmon and the spicy tuna everything was so fresh that it literally just melted on your tongue. I can't wait to go back to Vegas so that I can eat here again and it really was a good value for your money. It's a 90 minute sitting and they give you a 60 minute warning and then a 30 minute warning and then they do a last call with you but honestly you're gonna get so full so fast you won't even need the 90 minutes.

    fresh!

    I love this place so much and it's a must visit when you're in Vegas. The food is great with really fresh ingredients, and I love that the salmon eggs are unlimited. The service is attentive and friendly, though sometimes the kitchen can't quite keep up when it gets busy. The space is clean but a bit small, so it can get pretty loud.

    This spot is def one of the best AYCE sushi spots in Vegas - so many sushi roll combinations and Japanese small dishes! The service is so fast and there's usually a long wait for the meal. But I love the sushi combinations and I love the fact that there's a good amount of fish and it's not just rice. Def a must try in vegas!

    AYCE sushi for just under $35! A short drive from the Strip, in a quiet shopping center was this restaurant completely full with patrons. The wait was less than 30 mins when we arrived around 7pm on a Sunday night. We added our name to the wait list and were sent a text when our table was ready. Once seated, service was fast. The server has a hand held computer, inputting our order, which I assume goes straight to the kitchen. Each dish was brought out within minutes. We were constantly checked in on throughout our meal. Overall, the food was very good. Best sushi I've had...no. But, some different options were available allowing them to standout a bit. They so have some items on the menu that are limited for ayce. Still, food quality was good, service was also good, and price point made it definitely worth the visit. Personally, 4.5* experience

    the appetizers, lots of sushi and rolls! Vega tempura, shrimp tempura, shrimp skewers, dragon balls, creamy shrimp, fried banana!!

    This Local's Favorite! AYCE LUNCH AND ALL DAY Menu. Every single thing we ordered came out fresh, hot and delicious. Dishes were described, if we had questions. I don't eat any raw meats or fish and I was filled to the brim with all the exceptional dishes. Tried a few new things. My favorite is the Tempura veggies and Tempura Shrimp. But so many wonderful things to eat. Very busy place, no reservations taken, but they move everything along quite nicely. Small place with pretty open kitchen to watch these cooks at work. Fine oiled machines!! The only reason we don't go more often is because we have no idea what portion control is. EVERYTHING is SO GOOD. Fried Banana for dessert is so yummy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

    We found Sakana because we were looking for a place that as open late because we flew into Las Vegas late. Sushi is a favorite food genre for us and we ordered the all u can eat option for $33. It's a great option you get plenty of food and options Most of the items were brought fresh after ordered and they were plentiful. Highly recommend this place

    Food quality has gone downhill. What happened?? The rice is unseasoned and just plain bland. Are we sure it's sushi rice or just a regular jasmine rice? The saving grace to the meal is probably the one time limited order for the hamachi and salmon carpaccio, the limited one time order of salmon belly nigiri where you get two pieces per person, and probably the hamachi kama. They ran out of uni so that was unfortunate. Very disappointing because sakana used to be the spot I hit up when I'm in town. I'm surprised to see it's still busy, given the horrible downward trend of the food quality. Service was good! Our server was very kind and efficient.

    Amazing food, amazing service, no wait and servers fast. Atmosphere great. The all you can eat is so worth it!

    Run, don't walk to this amazing sushi joint! We arrived for an early dinner on a Thu night and at 5.30 pm this picture perfect spot was already bustling. Do not let the blacked out exterior windows deter. We entered and were pleasantly surprised by a fresh modern take on traditional decor. We were whisked to an available table and noted the 4 professional sushi chefs behind the counter busily preparing specialized rolls and individual pieces with asswmbly line precision. Service was amazingly professional and super attentiive. Although Sakana is known as an AYCE we knew we were not so hungry so ordered ala carte: Baked Lobster Mexican Roll Jalapeno Bomb x2 Something Wrong A Little Tease Don't Cry Amigo Mango Mochi Hot and Cold Sake Green Tea All the dishes came to the table within mere minutes and the freshly prepared sushi was fresh, amazingly presented and delicious! We were amazed by our experience here but moreover we were surprised by the very reasonable $80 (before tax and tip) for all of our exceptional food and drink as a party of 3! Well done Sakana! Folks,run, don't walk!

    How long is for the waiting line?

    From my own experience, we have never had to wait more than 5 minutes

    Is there any waitlist and how do I join the waitlist?

    There is no wait list without physically going to the restaurant. No app and you can't call to get in line, you have to show up to the hostess. They will then put your name on the list and text you when your table is ready.

    What are the prices for lunch and dinner?

    $25.95 for lunch $34.95 for dinner.... It is in huge print plain sight on top of the menu.

    Are you open Christmas Day 2024?

    Yes, Sakana is opened during all Holidays.

    About lunch AYCE time.. It is 11:00-3:00pm. What does that mean? Do I just need to arrive by 3 pm? or do I have to finish eating by 3 pm?

    Last call is around 30 minutes prior to closing/time limit.

    Is this place closed until December 2024 as it states on yelp?

    As of 19 days ago i was there

    Do they accept reservations? Tried calling a few times and couldn't get through to anyone. Thanks in advance!

    They don't take reservations

    Is the lunch menu the same as the dinner menu?

    Same physical menu at both times of day, but there are a couple premium items included in the "All Day" price. (The menu shows which items are only available for the "all day" price. For example, nigiri such as sea urchin, salmon belly, amaebi, etc.… Read more

    Why is there an AYCE price and a la carte prices on the menu?

    The place is all you can eat, if you don't want to pay the 28.99 forall you can eat you can buy items at regular menu prices.

    All you can eat?

    YES!!! And it's worth it! Great sushi and fast service.

    Can they turn down the volume or change the music, can be obnoxious?

    go somewhere else

    I've been trying to call for about 20 minutes to make a reservation, but the phone is always busy. Wondering of they hang up their phone correctly?

    They are not take reservation.

    Are you open on Christmas day?
