Always had great food and service here. We were regulars. Had not been there since June and were surprised to see it was closed on Independence Day. I hope they are renovating their Japanese food restaurant. They made the best Katsudon and Tempura Teishoku. I look forward to their reopening.

Dang bummer this place closed. Guess the part about it never being crowded, while good for me was not good for them. Need to find a new sushi/japanese place that is reasonably priced and not crowded.

To give this place a 1 start is way to much credit . I can’t even start to describe how awful this place is. Let’s just say customer beware the lemons served with my hamachi Kama was spoiled when I say spoiled I mean slimy spoiled and that even tasted better than the fish. The fish was rubbery with a strong fish odor. The worst hamachi I’ve ever tried one bite and I told the waitress in not paying for this. The grilled squid had a very strong odor witch is the first I have ever had that dish smelling like that, I decided to leave before I flipped my top. I eat at different sushi places at least once a week figured I would try a new place this by far THEWORSTIVEEVERTRIED. Never again

Great sushi bowls(chirashi, etc) for the price. Lately, though, I have to make sure what they bring me matches the picture. Sometimes they try to short the amount of fish in the dish & add some sort of shaved egg grossness.

I’ve always had a great time here the food is good and the service is just as good. Only better time I’ve had eating and drinking In an izakaya is when I was in Japan.

I was about to join my coworkers for an evening karaōke but I was hungry, I thought I would get something to eat. I saw this little restaurant and decided to give it a try. When you enter in the place has a nice ambiance and décor theme that enjoyable. I was immediately greeted and seated and ordered a beer while I look through the menu. It looks as though noodles bowls and sushi are a large part of their offerings. I chose to order a Teriyaki Chicken bento instead. The bento arrived and It looked ok. I think the portion of chicken was meager portion & for the salad, it was simply iceberg lettuce with a tomato wedge dressed in thousand island dressing. I could make this entire meal at home. I was hoping for something a little more authentic, less Americanized, especially being in China Town. I wouldn’t recommend this place, there are better places to enjoy noodle bowls and basic teriyaki chicken. Perhaps, dine at my house. :) Bön Apetit!

I love this place! I’ve been coming here for years. Their food comes out fast and everyone is so nice. This is my bf and I’s favorite spot. They do have weird office hours but doesn’t bother me at all. I always get their Chirashi bowl and it’s always deelish! Their food is also decently priced. Giving this place four stars!

This Place is always Empty. Nearly never any deals, and today it had a note on the door saying closed. I’ve never had such a hard time spending money at a business. I wish I could say something good but it feels like the people here don’t even want to work here. ~ as someone who is always critiquing businesses I don’t understand why this place is even open if they don’t want to make money. I’m giving up on This place. Sushi Kaya ½Mile down the road has AYCE and is FAST and is always open and full of happy people.

DON’T EVEREATHERE! OWNERSTOLEMONEYFROMUS! My family and I have been going to this joint for years. One can say«we’re regulars,» even my daughter got excited each time we went there. Few yrs ago, we decided to purchase a gift-certificate for our daughter since she loved eating there. We were re-assured that the certificate will not expire. Fast forward to tonight. We decided to dine there tonight and finally use the gift-certificate. Upon paying, we were all shocked that the OWNERREFUSETOHONOR the certificate! He claims: «it’s not my signature.» What? We BOUGHTTHISCERTIFICATEATHISESTABLISHMENT. Not only he refused to honor it, he also refused to give us a refund for buying HISRESTAURANT’S certificate. After all these years of being a patron to his restaurant with lots of fond memories of dining there with friends and family, even during the holidays(Christmas, New Years) and birthdays — this is how we are treated! We paid for tonight’s dinner regardless(awful memory = awful taste); however, I felt it was WRONGFORTHEOWNERTOTREATUSTHATWAY. We’ve already file a complaint to BBB and considering legal action.

Shuseki has the largest selection of Japanese food in Las Vegas, including sushi, okonomiyaki, takoyaki and hiyashichuuka. However, that’s the only positive comment I have for them. The restaurant’s chairs are all ripped and pillows are extremely dirty. The service is slow and staff isn’t friendly or helpful. There isn’t anyone Japanese in the entire restaurant, customer or staff, and play all Korean music. I have been here a couple of times and each time been told several items on the menu were unavailable. If you’re looking for authentic Japanese food try a different restaurant.

I arrived hopeful — left disappointed. Woe is me! I heard very mixed things about this place — that it was past it’s glory days, that the very particular Japanese dishes such as Takoyaki and Okonomiyaki were a disappointment, that it was not authentic Japanese, etc. Which is a shame because my MO was to locate a restaurant that has great Okonomiyaki. After the enormous shame that was Doh! Tapas and Sushi(again, another restaurant that has no business serving Izakaya style food), I was SO hopeful. First off: Not Japanese run. This restaurant is Izakaya style and when I asked the server if this was a Izakaya, looked utterly confused. Okay, then. Plays Japanese music, serves Japanese food, Japanese notes on wall — not Japanese. Lousy service. One poor, friendly waitress running around for seven tables. SEVEN tables. My water sat empty after my initial gulp and my hot tea sat in a similar fate.(And they only have sweet iced tea? Who does that?) The server attempted to sit me next to a giant family table with a screaming baby. Meanwhile, about twenty other tables sat empty. Uh, what? WHY would you do that? I ordered Takoyaki, Gyoza, and of course, Okonomiyaki. Takoyaki — Best thing I had. Perfectly executed. Gyoza — swimming with grease. Tasted like it came from the Chinese hands of someone at Orchid Garden, oily and flavorless. I wanted to gag after eating that until. Okonomiyaki — SODAMNGREASY and BURNT and what IS this? Is it that hard to make? Do I have to open up my own Okonomiyaki restaurant? For shame! There was a booth, a BOOTH at last year’s Aki Matsuri that served up only Okonomiyaki and it was so simple and delicious and perfect. The only saving grace this place has is that it’s cheap. Also — .50 cent charge for credit cards. Get out. So disappointed. You know when the local restaurants in the plaza don’t even recommend to eat at an establishment that there’s a problem. From service to food, I cannot and will not return.

I agree with Anh. Complaining about Chinese owned Japanese restaurant is not relevant if the food is good. I’m half Japanese and I liked the place. Izakaya places are wonderful and are hard to find. Even though I’ve been to better Izakaya, this place wasn’t bad. For those of you that don’t know Izakaya, it’s like a Japanese Tapas place. Small cheap items are prevalent. Having said that, the lunch combo, which are not on the menu, is a great deal. You get a large ramen bowl and a small don bowl(rice with something additional). Great deal. Not crowded. It’s hidden so it may be easy to miss.

I feel like I have to preface something: It doesn’t matter if it’s chinese-owned or ran or whatever, because that just sounds highly-prejudiced on its own if you think you HAVETOBE a certain race to make certain cuisine. What does it matter unless you are properly trained? People ought to judge food based on taste and not on who/what race is the person makes it. Food for thought. LOCATION: Tucked away in the corner of the plaza near the bottom-floor garage, I feel like it often gets overlooked. Definitely not as packed as Ichiza, which also serves japanese dishes, it’s a nice change. Food came out relatively quick. PRICE: Relatively low-priced around $ 7-$ 8, the dishes left us pretty full. My friends ended up having to roll me through the door because I decided not to waste any food. FOOD: My friends and I ordered the omusoba and yakisoba. My yakisoba arrived greasy, crackling, and heaping. The omusoba is the exact same thing, but with over-egg encasing the top of the noodles. Topped with pickled ginger and japanese mayonnaise, it was the perfect food soaker for the late-night drinking crowd. How can you go wrong with über-greasy noodles, lettuce, beef, and sliced carrots?! It was filling and tasty. As far as their sushi and ramen go DON’T. I’ve been here enough times through the years to order the food they’re good at making. The problem with shuseki is, it has this massive menu but they don’t have specialty in making any one dish. They aren’t really known for spectacularly done items. I believe they try to tackle too much. This might explain why this place is always dead. Everytime I come here, it’s pretty empty. Even on the weekends, I hardly see it filled up or too busy. Great place to meet up with a whole group of people. Our server was attentive, and went to check on us often to refill our waters. It’s a decent place to pop in for something simple, but not somewhere to impress out-of-towners. I would just suggest Shuseki to make cut their huge menu down and focus on improving on the dishes they do well/improve the ones they do not. Worth a visit.

Came here with some friends recently for food, after a concert. Chinese owned japanese restaurant(well iunoe if its chinese owned, but at least its chinese ran) I had ordered a Takoyaki and a Yakiudon. Had a friend order their Cold Tan Tan Noodles and her boyfriend ordered an Omusoba, another friend had ordered a fried rice. The cold tan tan noodles are different from any of the traditional ones you may find. this is more of a noodle salad vs the ramen style or sichuan style. Lots of veggies(lettuce and tomatoes) with a «spicy» dressing/sauce. Omusoba is a normal yakisoba with a okonomiyaki style egg/dressing wrapped like if its was an omurice. Friend had said it was good but too salty(apparently was a on-going trend being the noodles…) The takoyaki was good. Freshly made and hot. Flavored well. Thoroughly cooked without any residual flour taste. Yakiudon. huge portion came out on a sizzling hot plate. overly salty. caused me to drink a lot of tea to balance it out. Otherwise would have been good. If you are a small eater, this may be big enough to share. Service was mediocre. Even when it wasnt busy. A lot of workers were just sitting/standing around and needed to be called on. Iunoe if its good to judge depending on if they fill my water/tea but this is how i am judging them for this. Had to flag/wave them down for the check as well.

This place is me and my boyfriend’s go to spot when we want a snack or a fairly priced meal. We’re regulars here even before we started Unilocaling. We usually get the tempura ice cream which never fails to satisfy me. Rarely they would give not as much ice cream but it still tastes great regardless. Their beef tongue skewers would be great if they didnt put so much salt on them. I literally had to wipe it off. I also like this places lunch specials. For only less than $ 10 you can get a lot of food. The staff here also are nice. They are always friendly and having big smiles on their faces.

I came with a friend and a gift certificate for $ 10. I was pretty excited to come here because I rarely eat Asian cuisines. Usually I am a phở person and nothing more, unless it’s sushi, which sometimes in the good ‘ol U. S. of A. you can’t really even consider the type of sushi served actual sushi per Japanese standards. With the being said, launch into my review. Food — My friend and I shared the Octopus Balls and the Poki. Immediately I was overtaken by the saltiness of the poki dish. Just too much. Octopus balls were a nice treat and actually had a decent amount of meat in them Both my friend and I ordered the Tan Tan Men Ramen. This was my first time having ramen. I thought it was decent. The noodles were good, but it wasn’t too spicy to me anyway, until I happened to get a bit of the broth in my eye. Yes, go me. Broth in the eye. Overall the taste was not totally satisfactory, but I don’t have much to go off of. I believe now I will branch out and try some ramen elsewhere, just to see how Shuseki’s stacks up. Service — Meh, meh, meh. Although our server arrived to our table quickly to take our orders and bring food he was non-existent for most of the time. My water glass sat unfilled for quite awhile while I was really wanting some water. My GC was met with some speculation when we were ready to pay our bill. I was just getting ready for a confrontation, but then the server whisked away my debit card and the GC. When he came back he had charged my debit card an additional $ 4.43 for«included tip» which I was not told would be included. Um, what? We were only a part of two. Pretty sure the«tip included» part came because we had used the gift certificate. If it’s the restaurant’s policy to include tip along with gift certificate’s they should include that on the GC. But my GC said nothing of a tip being included and I’ve used quite a bit and I have never had this happen to me before. The $ 4.43 tip was annoying and the fact that they did not bother to tell me I would be charged a tip prior to running my card was even more annoying. It is not okay to charge someone more just because you feel like it and especially if there is nowhere on the menu, in the restaurant, or on my GC that says I will be charged. Considering I *was* going to leave a tip for $ 5 the server got shorted. I’m guessing the restaurant does this because they might assume people who use gift certificates may leave poor tips. I am not one of those people and I think it’s poor business to assume everyone who comes through your door are cheap-asses. Also, if Shuseki put out the gift certificates they are obviously trying to get business in the door. Unfortunately for them and their assumptions regarding myself — I will not be back.

Still fairly new to the ramen scene, I’ve only had ramen at Monta just down the road from Shuseki, and Foo Foo Tei in Hacienda Heights, California. Both serve some damn good ramen if you ask me, though you didn’t, but you got an answer anyway! So upon learning that Shuseki makes some decent ramen, I was looking forward to broadening my ramen horizons. My friend had a gift certificate to Shuseki and invited me to have dinner with her there. At 6:00p.m., except for three diners finishing up their meals, the place was practically empty and I wasn’t sure whether to interpret that as a bad sign. The menu is extensive, as some Unilocalers have mentioned. I do like how there are photos in the menu, which makes it easier to choose what to order. Several items jumped out at me, like the Okonomiyaki and Takoyaki. Both my friend and I ordered the Tan Tan Men Ramen and shared a plate of Takoyaki and Poki. FOOD + Poki: The tuna was fine and the cucumber slices were crunchy, but the whole mix was salty. + Takoyaki: Not bad. Better than Ichiza’s where they stiff you on octopus. + Tan Tan Men Ramen: I was expecting a rich and flavorful broth with a light spiciness. The spice was there, but the heat I got was from it cooking in the very large bowl it was served in. Broth is what makes a soup, and the broth for this one didn’t do it for me. The noodles were fine but I didn’t care for the fatty slices of pork, and I’m Filipina and am accustomed to eating fatty, porky foods on occasion. I couldn’t bring myself to eat that slice. SERVICE Slow, but that didn’t really bug me. The servers were in the back by the bar, and I was able to call them over to let them know we were finished and ready to pay. OVERALL The food here is cheap, so I might return to give their other hot foods a try, like the Okonomiyaki, but I’ll have to pass on trying the other ramen bowls.

This restaurant was very difficult to find. It was located before you enter the parking garage of the Pacific Asian Plaza on W Spring Mountain Road/S Decatur Blvd in Las Vegas. Even when I entered the restaurant, I wasn’t sure I was in Shuseki. The name wasn’t on the menu, only on the chopsticks. I placed the Restaurant, com coupon on the table before I ordered, The menu was full of photos. There were quite a few Korean appetizers on the menu. I ordered the Potstickers and the Small Assorted Sashimi. The server leaned over the 3 foot tall wooden banister to deliver a glass of water and 2 small dishes rather than walking around the banister. Within 10 minutes of walking in, the server leaned over the banister again to put the Small Assorted Sashimi on my table. There were 3 slices of salmon, 3 slices of hamachi, and 3 slices of tuna on a bed of shredded daikon on a plate. The tuna was artificially colored red. The hamachi had some pieces of skin on it. I saw the sushi chef sit down at the bar and watch the basketball game after he cut my fish. There was a school-age girl wandering around the restaurant. She was playing with a plastic cup behind a glass partition. The server leaned over the banister again and delivered the Potstickers. There were 6 potstickers on a plate. No garnish. No dipping sauce. Eating the potstickers was like biting into a Xiao Long Bao dumpling. There was so much liquid/grease in each bite. I asked the server for the check. The Restaurant, com coupon was still on the table. She cleared the table without taking the coupon. She returned with the bill. Just as I suspected, the discount was not taken off. She recalculated the bill, crossed out the total, and told me the tip was already included. No where on this coupon did it say an 18% gratuity would be added. That was the icing on the cake. Very rarely have I given a restaurant only one star in over 200 reviews I have written. I will not be back!
