pros... great place to have some tasty japanese food while in las vegas. this is a traditional little japanese restaurant in a strip mall. got here purely by luck, my group was looking for some sushi and we just happened to be in the \"chinatown\" area of las vegas. and just noticed the sign which struck me as typically japanese in writing style.\n\nthe inside is very nice, family run restaurant. nothing fancy but neat, clean and presentable. we were seated on a long table with a bench along the wall and chairs opposite it. and any place which has food items written in the native (non-english) is alright by me. \n\nthe food was tasty and had a lot of choices: ramen (noodle soup), don-buri (some meat over rice), sushi, yakitori (grilled meat on a stick), and the small little plates kinda of like japanese dim sum, but more to be eaten with beer or alcohol. they also had some unusual dishes such as, omurice, omelette over rice, and okinomiyaki, japanese style pancake. their alcohol selection is also very nice, with a choice of beer, shochu, chu-hi, and sake as well. all in all a very complete menu.\n \nme my buddy henry got all the yakitoris, about 8 varieties, there was also a nice selection of ramen. my wife ordered the shoyu or soy sauce broth, which had a nice soup base and had 3 slices of cha-shu pork as well as a bevy of bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, green onions, and a sheet of nori (red laver, kelp). my buddy the wyster got the tantan noodles, which were hot and spicy, chopped meat with soybean paste and lots of chili peppers. my other buddies, mike and shay, ordered the sushi, which was great. they have some pretty unique rolls and a lot of deep fried makis as well. all in all the food was very delicious and came out pretty fast. \n\nso if you are looking for some japanese food in las vegas and you are around chinatown, come to this place, you will not be dissapointed. and they are open until 2 a.m. every night, or is that morning?\n\ncons... parking is tight, and not too many spaces for the size of the mall, but i think there was more underneath or behind the mall. oh the bathroom was clean but the toilet in the men's bathroom was missing the top of the commode, so when you flush it you get a little spurt of water, funny but interesting.
