Top Best Sushi Places & Restaurants in Paradise

"If Jiro Dreams of Sushi is your favorite documentary, Yui Edomae Sushi might be your favorite restaurant. Here, the role of Jiro is played by chef Gen Mizoguchi, a master of fish and rice who helped introduce Las Vegas to traditional edomae sushi as the chef of a just-opened Kabuto. At Yui, Mizoguchi plays chef and choreographer to a brilliant parade of bites that progress over the course of an omakase tasting, from pickled items to grilled plates to gorgeously subtle sashimi and nigiri using fish you’ve never heard of before, for a meal you’ll never forget."

"When Chef Gen Mizoguchi opened Kabuto (the other best Japanese restaurant on this list), he changed the landscape of Vegas omakase sushi forever. Chef Mizoguchi continues to raise the bar with Yui, focusing on omotenashi (genuine warm hospitality) and a luxurious omakase meal. Nowadays, many restaurants fly their fish from Japan."

"One of the most amazing sushi experiences in Chinatown starts here at Yui Edomae. The edomae, which refers to the many delicacies caught in Tokyo Bay, sushi restaurant from Gen Mizoguchi features sophisticated, high-end sushi highlighting fresh fish flown in from Japan served in a simple setting. Dine-in options only."

"Inside Shanghai Plaza in Chinatown, Kura Revolving Sushi Bar offers sushi plates for $2.75 each. Chilled items can be picked off the revolving conveyor belt for immediate eating. You can also order directly from the touchscreen monitor above your table, where you can order a selection of entrees and desserts as well (the chefs will zip them right out to your table via the conveyor belt within minutes)."

"If you are interested in viewing Las Vegas art that includes established as well as up-coming artists in the area of pop and contemporary art, then you should stop by the A.W."

"In the shadows of the Strip, you’ll find Domsky Glass, a studio that utilizes metal and glass to create innovative lighting and sculptures.
