One of my favorite restaurants! It's definitely on the expensive side, but the quality is absolutely amazing and, in my opinion, worth every penny. They are also incredibly kind and attentive to kids. They have a cute kids' plate and cup set, although my daughter decided she didn't want to use them this time. The foie gras is THE BEST. I love it every single time--it's one of the dishes I always look forward to. We also tried their new mapo tofu, and it was incredible! Unfortunately, it tends to sell out because they don't have enough pots to keep up with demand, which is such a shame because it's SO good. Since my daughter can't eat spicy food, they were kind enough to accommodate us by serving the sauce on the side and giving her just the tofu. She basically ate all of it and left the sauce for us! The grilled dishes are also fantastic--super juicy while still cooked all the way through, with that perfect amount of crispiness on the outside. Everything is just so well done. The only downside is that it can get really hot inside. The AC doesn't seem to be strong enough, especially when the restaurant is busy, so hopefully they can improve the temperature because it would make the dining experience even better. Definitely make a reservation ahead of time! This is not a place where you want to just show up and hope to get a table. It's popular for a reason! Overall, one of my favorite spots for amazing food, great quality, and wonderful service. read more

Raku, a legendary Izakaya started first on Spring mountain in 2008 and then opened Toridokoro Raku in 2020. My first visit was in 2021. This last visit in last month seems to be a bit underwhelming compared to before. Service (3/5): food comes out fast. Service was ok. Not super friendly or attentive. Ambiance (4/5): traditional Japanese izakaya feel with the small bar area and a few tables. Food (4/5): Will order again: Variety skewers: most of the skewers that we got such as chicken thigh, chicken heart and chicken gizzard were all good. Although it's strange that they were not hot when they came off the grill. I wonder if they reheat them in the back?! Make sure they give you the ones off the grill. Chicken soft bone with Brussels sprouts (5/5): we enjoy this dish a lot. Juicy fried chicken (5/5): Raku staple. One of the best fried chicken. Skipped: Appeizer set (3/5) nothing in that combination was memorable. Chicken liver with leek (3/5): it was too salty and oily. Overall, this is still a solid chicken izakaya place. Definitely make reservations ahead of time. They get really busy since it's a small place. read more

Get the mapo tofu (if available)... delicious! It takes about 10 minutes to prep tableside. The oyako don was really good too. I also recommend the sweet potato w/ butter, grilled mochi (in my opinion it could do without the nori wrap), grilled rice balls. The ginger pork cheek was okay... maybe it was the sauce? The chicken nuggets were eh... thought it was karaage but it wasn't. Overall this place always hits! I'll keep coming back. read more

Toridokoro Raku has been on my list for quite a while now and this past Vegas we finally had a chance to try it out. Reservations is a must and I made mine a month before we went. Toridokoro isn't a big restaurant it has about 4 to 5 tables and 8 counter seating. Once arrived we were greeted right and was seated at the counter which was perfect. We get to watch the chef do his magic The plan was to try out their omakase but instead we opt out and ordered al carte. Which turned out to be great. We ordered the following: We started with the Appetizers Set to share. The set comes with five different cold Appetizers. We enjoyed it. It was light and refreshing. Yakitoi: HATSU-This was fantastic. The chicken was perfectly grilled so tender and juicy. KAWA- The Skin was nice and crispy. FOIE GRAS- Definitely my favorite. So rich and buttery. It's a must order at any RAKU location. Bonjiri- This was our second favorite. The chicken was tender and juicy. Momo- These thighs were great. Dakimi- Wish we order a few more of this one. The crispy chicken skin kept the breast nice and moist. Isabella Yaki- This Mochi was better at all. It just felt like eating a dessert for me. Liver Nira- Talking about drinking food. This is a must order dish. The liver was fantastic and done perfectly. Overall the quality of the food was great. Ordering al carte can get pretty pricey but it cheaper than on the Strip. Service was fantastic and very friendly. It's a place I would definitely return again. read more

I wanted to come here after seeing an IG reel of their homemade mapo tofu. Unfortunately they did not have it that day, but everything else we ordered was a hit. Memorable bites: -Foie gras with duck skewer: Incredibly rich and delicious! -Fried chicken soft bones: Perfectly salted and came with crispy brussels (a surprise to us). -Paitan ramen had a creamy and savory broth. I drank every last drop! We sat at the bar and had such a delightful experience. The servers were very attentive and friendly. Recommend making a reservation online as it is a small space and seats filled up fast. read more

Decided to try some yakitori & they did not disappoint. We tried most of the meat options they had & they were all flavorful.

I don't like write negative reviews especially I'm very loyal to Raku brand, but this experience left me genuinely disappointed. Like many people, I came here because of the nonstop social media promotion of their Mapo Tofu. Every influencer seemed to be featuring it, and it's pretty obvious the restaurant invested heavily in influencer marketing. It worked--we made a Thursday 6:00 PM reservation specifically because of that dish. We've been loyal customers of the original Raku on Spring Mountain for years and still visit almost monthly. We never had much interest in this location since chicken isn't really our thing, but the Mapo Tofu campaign convinced us to give it a chance. We were seated right away, although the hostess came across as rude and impatient with several guests. After ordering drinks, we asked our server where the Mapo Tofu was because we couldn't find it on the menu. Her response: "It's not available." No apology. No explanation. As a customer, this felt like a bait-and-switch. You spend weeks flooding social media with one specific dish, invite influencers to showcase it, get people to make reservations because of it, and then don't even have it available without any warning. If it's a limited special, sold out, or only offered on certain days, say so. Put it on your website, your social media, or tell people when they make reservations. Don't let customers show up expecting the one dish you heavily advertised only to find out it isn't being served. Las Vegas isn't just locals. People travel here, make reservations, and choose restaurants based on what they see online. There are hundreds of dining options in this city. Driving across town or planning a night around one advertised dish only to discover it's unavailable is incredibly frustrating. We stayed because we'd already been seated and ordered drinks, but the experience started on the wrong foot. The food was decent--about 3/5. Nothing was bad, but nothing stood out enough to justify all the hype. The original Raku on Spring Mountain is still far better in both execution and overall experience. Influencer marketing may get people through the door once, but disappointing paying customers is what they'll remember. Real customers shouldn't be the ones left feeling misled after the hype. read more

Wowzer!!!! Probably one of my first only hit list here in LV but my it's visit has eluded me for a long while till finally now trying for first time and absolutely exceeded my expectations!!! Super unassuming location inside a large busy strip mall!! Actually was a difficult find and entrance was a little hidden to boot!!! But once you walk in you're immediately greeted and welcomed!! Super cute small space but loving the vibe!! Menu is definitely chicken focused but so many specials and great variety of deliciousness!!! I really loved the mushroom caps, chicken gizzards, skin, heart and Japanese sweet potatoes with butter!!! Oh and definitely get the duck/Foie gras!!! Very generous portions!! Stuff half of the FG piece inside duck and thee best one bite of the night!! Do not skip on the in house made tofu!!! Both the cold preparation and warm were excellent but the agedashi tofu on a bed of warm chicken broth was next level!! Highly recommend the very rare and usually never distributed ENZo wines....If you know you know only sold exclusively at their vineyards in Northern California with membership or only in Japan!! Definitely my go to for authentic Japanese skewers!! Highly recommend reservations!!! I was very lucky but called thirty minutes prior to opening and was able to secure contact and easy reservation!! My apologies for no food photos but consumed before realizing we didn't take any photos lol!! read more

This place is definitely a good experience as an introduction to someone who hasn't done a Japanese Omakase and/or someone that isn't into raw fish. The reason why is because this is an Omakase where the main ingredient they utilize is chicken and the price point isn't as high compared to sushi omakases. The best thing about Omakase is that you don't have to really look at the menu. The chef will serve you items that they suggest and you may even be able to try some new things. They will take you on a journey through different types of flavors and textures with the base of it primarily chicken. The omakase alone is pretty good, but you can also order additional dishes if you like. You may even come across something that you like and you can even order extra of that also. With the omakase and maybe one extra dish, I was pretty full so I wouldn't suggest to over order from the very beginning. We did the omakase with a sake pairing which is pretty nice when it comes to omakases. The drinks kind of bring you on a journey of flavors that can help pair with the food you're eating. Not to mention you also get to drink and eat at the same time which is always nice. We had a reservation right when they opened so it was pretty empty and chill. We noticed that some people didn't have a reservation, but since they weren't booked, they were able to seat them. The ambiance is pretty cool especially when you sit at the bar. You get to watch the chef grill skewers which can be similar to watching a bartender make several of your drinks. read more

Food: yakitori and more: Thigh - little overcooked Wing - get Mushroom - get Ground chicken - get Japanese potato - must get Grilled mochi - skip Agedashi tofu in paitan soup - get Scallop w/garlic butter Sake steamed clams - skip Grilled rice ball w/ground chicken - skip Mango pudding Complimentary barley tea serves at the end I felt like everything was just a bit too salty. The standout was the sweet potato. The big loser was the sake steamed clams. Waaaayy too much sake not fully cooked off so really tasted the alcohol big time. Service: warning - one annoying thing was I called and left a voicemail for a reservation and no one called me back. So I called back to confirm and the gal on the phone was like "oh yeah we don't listen to the messages." Um, what? Well then why set up a machine that takes messages???! So good thing I kept calling until a person picked up the phone as they don't have a website set up either to take reservations and yes, you NEED a reservation if you want to get in. But our service was great once we were at the restaurant. Ambiance: really feels like you are in Tokyo at a yakitori restaurant as they cook the skewers in front of you on the very special coals that make it taste delicious! Definitely recommend requesting to sit at the bar when you make a reservation. Fun to watch the magic happen. Not sure I'll be back as it's just not as good as in Roppongi, and you can only eat so much salt! read more

Pretty good yakitori spot off the strip. They have a decent selection of skewers to choose from, focusing mostly on chicken. We tried several and my favorite was the chicken oysters. About 5-6 skewers per person is a good amount. It's a little pricier than I was expecting considering how far away from the strip it is. Recommend making reservations ahead of time as it gets busy. read more

I've always been curious about this place because I pass by it every time I'm in the plaza getting tea. I was lucky enough to get a walk in seat at the counter during one of my recent trips to Vegas. I wasn't sure I could finish all the food from the omakase course since I arrived at 9PM, but hey, it's Vegas - why not go for it. All the dishes were really good. My overall experience felt like I was transported back to Japan with the level of service and quality of food. Although I usually eat my food as they are presented, I did try some of the sauce and salt they provided. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're craving yakitori. The omakase was only $80. read more

Toridokoro Raku - Corn ribs - Japanese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Great ambiance, service, and quality food. Would come back again. Highly recommend their skewers especially the chicken hearts.

The food was great, my favorite was the Agedashi Tofu. I also really enjoyed the fríos gras duck skewer, and desserts. The rest of the food we ordered were good too like the spicy cod roe and paiten ramen. The service was a bit lacking at the beginning with the male server that initially seated us and took our order. The interaction with him felt weirdly awkward, he didn't ask us if we had any questions about the menu or special menu. It also took a while for him to check on us if we were ready to order, and he didn't come check on us if we needed refill with water. The two female servers made up for it halfway through our meal. Other than that the Ambiance was great, it's cozy with the limited seating. I would love to give them 5 stars but service is a big one for me. read more

Toridokoro Raku was an amazing chicken yakitori spot for our first visit. One note: yes, RSVPs have to be done through phone. I have heard some of the not so friendly stories about this, but I was super fortunate to have called close to the opening time and easily get a reservation time for the next day. Your mileage may vary! Coming to Toridokoro Raku, compared to Raku, you'll notice it's sleek and modern. Even though there are several grills in the side of the restaurant and open to the rest of the restaurant, the ventilation system they use is wonderful. We did not come out smelly at all after we ate here. We got bar seating and loved watching the whole process which was wonderful and being handed several of the skewers. As mentioned before as well, this is focused on mostly just chicken items with a few other non-chicken items. There is also an omakase option, but we opted to go a la carte which was pretty good as we ended up with about a little over 11+ items which came out to about a little under $100. I got the cold hojicha which was wonderful. A few of our favorite skewers/items included: the chicken heart, skin, ground chicken with poached egg (only feedback was that the poached egg came out really early and the ground chicken does take a while), chicken oyster (so, so good), sweet potato with irish butter, and mushroom. You can really taste the charcoal and some nice flourishing touches like the oil in the mushroom. All-in-all, it was surprisingly one of our favorite meals for this Vegas trip and would totally go back. read more

A few months ago, I went on a last minute road trip with my friends to Utah and stopped by Vegas on the way. We ate at this really really fancy restaurant that was extremely expensive called Raku and my friend mentioned a few things about going to the wrong location. Then we went to this location and were amazed at the food and it was wild because the price was 2-3x cheaper, but a lot of the items were the same from the other location! Then, my friend called me a week ago and told me I should to go to Vegas with him. I thought about it for about 30 minutes and after realizing I could get my flight reimbursed in miles and stay at his friend's condo, it might be worth the trip. I asked him if we were going to do anything, and he said nothing of substance, so I was intrigued, but what made me decide to go is when I asked him if we could eat here. He said yes, so I went! We got so many skewers, from chicken hearts (so good), gizzard, tail, skin, sweet potato, onion, rice cake (which was amazing to dip into the scallop, along with the mochi too) and okra. Then we got their special, which was chicken nuggets, and their chicken kaarage, which is a showstopper due to the juiciness and crunchiness of the skin. The scallop was completely to die for and had so much flavor. The smoked chicken dish had a unique smoke flavor to it that was really good, but I forgot to mix in the spicy ingredient that it was supposed to mix it with, which probably would've taken it to the next level. The pork cheek, my friend liked a lot and I thought it was okay, but the filet mignon or beef dish was quite a treat. I wanted to get these little fishy things I got last time, but I don't think they're on the menu anymore. The chef cooks everything on demand and brings it out in the order it's best to be eaten in and like any robata type place, you get so much flavor packed in every bite. Not to mention the cooking times and precision and quite flawless. The service here is great and you get a really good ambiance of the place as well, with chopstick holders made out of charcoal, unique dips like a green tea salt and so much more. They give you a free tea at the end of your meal too! This is definitely a place worth checking out. read more

This place was very good. Raku is a small restaurant featuring shareable appetizers and small dishes. They get busy so reservations are recommended. We were lucky to get in without them. My party and I shared several dishes. From the grill, we enjoyed the homemade chicken nuggets (my fave), wings (also my fave), chicken thighs, chicken breast with skin, ground chicken on a skewer with poached egg (another fave), sweet potato, Japanese yam with bonito flakes, grilled mochi wrapped in seaweed, and mushrooms (which were really good). Note that each item is good for one person O we ordered 4 of everything if we all wanted to try. Other items we had included the deep fried tofu, straw smoked chicken, diced Kobe beef (another fave), scallops on shell, pautan ramen, grilled rice ball (a fave), and please try the brown sugar pudding - so good! While I had my favorites, all the dishes were flavorful. Also, the service was friendly and efficient. read more

Relatives in from out of town. My brother-in-law has eaten in Toridokoro many times - his favorite Japanese restaurant in Vegas. He was anxious to introduce us to this restaurant. The restaurant is very small in a small strip mall. The restaurant had 2 tables for 6 and one for 4 and seating for about 8 at the "bar" where the chef was doing the cooking. Service was very attentive throughout the meal. Unfortunately, since he had been here many times before, we had him do all of the ordering - so I have no memory of what we ate. Most of the items were from the Robata Grill portion of the menu. I took photos of each item. The mushrooms and the chicken had a very tasty grilled flavor YUMMM. The rice cakes were the standout dish of the night for me. Each item was delish and unique for me. Definitely going back to try more of the items on the menu. read more

お客さんを舐めてる。 The service here was extremely unprofessional. It's a very small place with only five tables in total, yet there were three servers constantly "busy." Despite that, no one checked on us or even asked if we needed water. Halfway through the meal, my child had no water left. I tried to get someone's attention, but there was no staff in sight. Ironically, the water was finally brought over right when we were about to pay. At that point, I told the server we didn't need it anymore, thank you. read more

Toridokoro Raku - No water refilled - Japanese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Wow. My husband was so impressed he dubbed Toridokoro Raku better than the ORIGINAL. They only take reservations by phone and are open for dinner. The restaurant is small but beautiful and simple. The staff knew the menu well. They offered a specials board and explained each item. We over-ordered- having multiple skewers, the popcorn cartilage, rakus tofu (which is a half order of the famous tofu served at raku), paitan soup (broth), straw smoked seared chicken (also known as the medium rare chicken- my husband was very excited for this), kaarage, and onigiri. Everything was so amazing. I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu here. Food came out slowly as it was done, and we didn't feel rushed at all. Not only was the food delicious, but completely affordable too. We can't wait to come back. read more

I've been to Sushi raku on the strip, and my experience there was a 4/5. Felt the need to give Raku another try so made reservations for Toridokoro last weekend. We showed up a little late for our reservation of 6pm. Their dining room surrounds the yakitori grill and we got front row seats at the bar with the chef in action. The menu is extensive, so we opted to do their omakase for $80 that had a great variety of their popular items. Started with the appetizer set that included 5 bite sized plates - cheese (forget the type) with balsamic, chicken sausage with vegan jelly, shrimp in seafood sauce, fried sea bass, and fried lotus chips. This was followed by the second dish (my favorite) their homemade soft tofu, lightly breaded and fried in a rich chicken soup. Next, we had a series of skewers ranging from chicken skin, cartilage, heart, liver, tomato, and duck. A couple small plates were also served including thigh meat and sea scallops served on a scallop shell. The meal ended with a small bowl of noodles in clear chicken broth. The dessert consisted of brown sugar pudding topped with homemade fluffy and not-too-sweet whipped cream and a mango pudding. All in all, my experience was outstanding. I especially appreciate the attention to detail in every dish, from sauce varieties, fresh ingredients, and presentation. This includes their A+ service. Bravo!! read more

This is one of my favorite places in Las Vegas. The menu is clean and has specials, and the food is consistently flavorful and delicious. I like the staff who is attentive and very polite. The restaurant doesn't have a lot of seating, and we never feel crowded so I would call this intimate, but not exclusive. I really like their foie gras robata, but the foie gras don is delicious too.

We flew in from Texas, We walked into this restaurant with our baby, starving and ready to eat, and the place was clearly not busy with plenty of open tables visible. However, we were immediately turned away because we didn't have a reservation. What made the experience worse was the attitude. Instead of offering to help us make a reservation or explaining things politely, the gentleman at the front looked at us like we didn't belong there or couldn't afford the food. Just a heads up for anyone planning to come here: apparently reservations are required even when tables are sitting empty. Very disappointing customer service and not family friendly at all. This place sucks, the employees are rude as hell. read more

Went for a late dinner and mist of the standard chicken yakitori was sold out. We opted out of the omakase choice and ordered a different items on the menu. I would personally not come back because it is a bit pricey if you wanna be full. Some highlights include: Omakase appetizer - 5/5. This was outstanding! Juicy fried chicken - 5/5. The chicken was REALLY juicy and tender. Quail egg - 5/5. Had a very smoky flavor. Tomato - 5/5. Was charred perfectly. Agedashi tofu - 4/5. I really liked the sauce / soup that came with but tofu was alright. Scallops - 5/5. Was so buttery and fresh. Paitan ramen - 3/5. The flavors didn't really stick out. read more

5/5 Food This place really made me appreciate how good chicken can be when prepared with special care. I came in skeptical and left changed. We opted to buy the items individually rather than the omakase. The gizzard and heart had a sweet and savory sauce and was perfectly salted. The chicken breast with skin and the chicken thigh were all were crispy and juicy. The chicken liver and the foie gras were both soft, fatty and tender to perfection. Honestly every grilled item we got was just cooked in such a way to optimize the texture and everything had a flavorful smokiness to it. The portion sizes are on the smaller end with prices on the higher end, but not ridiculously unfairly so in my opinion (I would say this is high quality food prepared well, so with that in mind, the price to portion ratio isn't bad). You're paying for quality and specialty. For dessert we got the brown sugar and the mango which were both refreshing and delicious, and seemed made with the same thoughtful care they put into everything else we tried. 4.5/5 Service Servers here were some of the most attentive and efficient at their work I've experienced. It felt like all our needs were attended to immediately. Food came out at a good pace, table was kept clear so there was always enough comfortable room to eat. There was a slight miscommunication at one point about the details of a menu item but the server really went out of his way to resolve it which was very appreciated. Hana and Angela were both professional, friendly, and genuine and we never felt rushed. We asked Angela about the dessert and her explanations and recommendations were very helpful (Despite feeling full from our main meal, we were all glad we made room for it). 4/5 Ambiance It is quite a small space but not claustrophobic. Dim warm lighting to match dark wood furnishings. Clean and simple aesthetic with cute bird themed decor. There are very few tables all spaced a distance from each other to allow for privacy between guests, and then there are seats at the counter. As such, seating is limited. We reserved a table ahead of time for our group of 5 otherwise I could see the wait time being quite long. read more

Love love love! This place was amazing. Delicious charcoal aroma on every grilled item. There's a list of items that are super limited and by the time we got there, around nine at night, there really wasn't anything left from it. There is ample warning on the menu that those items are limited though! I would advise going early even though it probably means a wait. It'd be worth it! Some favorites of mine were the house made tofu (such an amazing silky texture) and the duck with foie. Everything was good though, especially if you're a big fan of organ meat, plenty of variety on the menu. The place is small and cozy and service is wonderful. Prices are super reasonable too. I'd love to come back and try all the things they were out of this time. read more
