Sushi + Sake

I came here for dinner with my parents a few weeks ago. They highly recommended the place because of its sushi. However, the customer service experience I had here was very, VERY poor. It had taken half an hour just to bring out the wine, and even then, they had brought out the wrong type of wine for my parents. Out of all the plates we ordered, only two of them had been delivered to us over the course of the 45 minutes that I had been there. The table next to us had ordered a second plate of shrimp tempura and received it very quickly — meanwhile, we had ordered our only plate of shrimp tempura long ago and hadn’t even received it at the time. Because I had to leave early, I was unfortunately unable to receive even the one plate that I had ordered. By far the worst experience I’ve had at a sushi restaurant!

I don’t know if it was because I hadn’t had Japanese food in awhile or if it was because I was tired of eating the same food every day, but Sushi + Sake was great!
During my stay in Las Vegas, I usually stay at the Tropicana, which sadly only has three restaurants to choose from (steakhouse, Italian and a café with various cuisines), so eating there can get quite boring. One night my grandma wanted to get Asian food, preferably Japanese. They used to stay at Green Valley Ranch years ago and knew that Sushi + Sake had a great Japanese restaurant, so we decided to visit hoping they still had the amazing dishes they enjoyed many years ago. Luckily, they did!
My grandparents both LOVE their deep fried soft-​shell crab (watari kani)! I was hesitant to try it, but my grandma talked me into it and I’m so glad she did because it was amazing! So crispy and perfect with the ponzu sauce, I understand why they wanted to come back here. There is little to no breading around the crab, just a light fry with amazing crisp-​ness.
I love my spicy tuna, but sadly no where on the Mainland makes it the same as in Hawaii, but here at Sushi + Sake, it gets pretty close. I was debating between three rolls but ended up choosing the Wet and Wild roll (spicy tuna topped with tuna in a garlic ponzu sauce). The garlic ponzu sauce was delish and the sushi roll itself was good enough for me, amazing even! The closest to home I have found so far!
My grandma got the unagi don, which had HUGE fillets of unagi, which she had a hard time finishing. My grandpa got the chirashi, which according to my grandma had less fish than she remembered. But both were happy with their dishes.
I also ordered chicken dumplings thinking they were going to be gyoza, but sadly they were like Chinese shumai. Kind of regret getting them because they were nothing special at all, very disappointed.
The service here was great as well. We had a server who, I don’t know how she knew but, could tell we were from Hawaii and explained she was from Hawaii too. She was very attentive and gave me extra otoshi, which was yummy!
I really wish my grandparents still stayed at Green Valley Ranch so I could enjoy this restaurant more often, but I’m sure during our next visit we’ll come back to Sushi + Sake!

Recently tried this place for the first time. We ordered 5 sushi rolls and some appetizers. Skinny dip & ocean paradise rolls were among our favorites.

Skinny dip roll was damn good. Staff were nice and friendly. We tried the two sake flights tasters. The pours were huge for the price. Liked 5 out of the 6. Only negative was the smoke from casino.

Thought I would weigh in on Sushi Sake while waiting for my check!
All in all a nice place to have dinner! Would have given them a 5 star but the sushi was sliced just a little thin for my liking!
The Ecstasy tuna flower was really yummy… recommended as a backup!!!
Wife says not as good as I Love Sushi or Spicy Tuna here in Henderson!

Went here during my last trip to the Las Vegas area with the wife. We eat a lot of sushi and this place was awesome. Ocean Paradise is one of the best roles I have ever had — the wife agrees. It is one of the few roles that we know measure other roles against when ordering specialty roles. Service was great! Chefs were top notch! Prices very reasonable.
If you’re staying at the GVR and looking for a sushi option, search no further.

I have to say I am really disappointed and unimpressed.
This sushi place is located inside of the Green Valley Resort. You would think that being touted as a high end sushi place things would be better run.
My hubs and I went on a Friday night, we debated between Sushi and Chinese food and choose sushi as the Chinese restaurant was dead. Usually a tell tale sign.
We asked to sit at the sushi bar as we normally get to interact with our sushi chef. Not true here let me tell ya.
Moving on, we waited 10 mins before we were even acknowledged by a waitress and not until after that by a sushi chef. To start of us, i ordered a Blueberry martini and a hot tea, my hubs just a simple coke no ice. We were brought out our drinks, umm, i got a water with no martini is site. After another 10 minutes a sushi chef finally asks us if we would like something. My hubs orders a roll and the guy just walks away, not even asking if i want anything or acknowledging me sitting there. The hubs had to go «excuse» quite a few times before the sushi chef would even look up again. This place is not noisy, only about 4 other couples in the place. But I did get to put my order in. Yeah! During this whole space of time, we had not seen our waitress once. Now there are two working the place and we are seeing the other lovely girl who is working her half of the restaurant, taking drinks, conversing etc. Our waitress, Brandi, i was looking around at the other table besides us and they are looking at me just raising there shoulders going «i don’t know». She finally reappears after my hubs gets his two rolls and I get my tuna and salmon sashimi. We had been there a good 25 – 30 mins and she brings out my martini. My water glass is empty and so is my husbands soda, does she offer to fill anything or ask if we need anything else? Nopers. We actually had to ask the other waitress for dishes to poor our soy sauce into.
Now the food itself, it was good. My sashimi was really thick cuts of salmon and tuna. My husbands spicy crab roll and his ginza roll were pretty good. That ginza roll was actually the best thing ever. It was so heavy and so tasty. Warm crab with a kick. :) Really big rolls too. My hubs was happy and like is said my sashimi was thick GOOD cuts of fish. It was nummy.
We get through our meal and she is standing at the other end of the sushi bar chatting about her child with the hostess. She has no other tables but us. We try several times to get her attention so we can get our bill. This takes another 5 minutes until I just stand up and ask for it. I am not someone who makes a scene or even really gets outwardly cranky so please don’t think i was rushing up on her. I politely asked for our check. It was the most attentive she was all night.
I have to say, the pricey price tag and the lack of service have caused to really give this place a big old thumbs down. Go to your neighborhood sushi spot instead of this one.

Got there at 6:50pm with a party of 3 and was given an all you can eat menu, when our server finally came to our table at 7:10pm i was told i was not allowed to do the all you could eat because it was now after 7. I told her i was given the menu so why couldnt i do it? She seemed busy and a little irritated but agreed to let me do it and we were definitely rushed on ordering. (Might I add I have been sick for the past two days and havent eaten anything so needless to say i was STARVING!) Back to the being rushed part, we ordered hot sake for the 3 of us and one of my friends ordered a sopporo (which he couldnt get out that he wanted a large because she was already walking away) we couldnt even ask for water. We didnt get water until the end when i asked for it.
When it came to ordering she told me to check off everything i wanted on the all you can eat menu (which usually i order as i go as not to order too much…) so i did exactly as she told me to do. When she picked up my paper she make the comment, «thats A LOT of food. Remember no sharing and no left overs.» Im sorry, you are rushing me and you dont know how much food i can put down number one, number two… you dont know how much money i have so if i end up sharing then charge me for it! No need to explain the rules to me or make a rude comment! I was really put off. I understand being busy and feeling rushed, i work at a restaurant where i have 6 tables at a time and believe me even in extreme circumstances i would never make a comment like that to my guests who are leaving me tips. Might i add the two friends i had with me also work at the same restaurant aforementioned.
ANYWAYS. The food took a look time to hit the table but once it did it was pretty good. I’ve had better but i’ve had worse. I think if the server hadnt have rushed us and seemed annoyed for no reason the whole experience would have been better. I was the only person who left her a decent tip since the other two people didnt feel she deserved it. She seems like a nice lady and i understand (again) about being busy but it can really make or break your experience. I probably wont come back here. (If i do it’ll be when there is literally no one else is there so i can at least get decent service)

This place is in the middle of Green Valley casino. Went here with my brother and we both thought it was good stuff. I ordered the Ginza roll which was crabilicious and he ordered an eel roll, which was also a delight.
I really enjoyed our starter cucumber salad sprinkled with fresh crab. I may be biased when it comes to crab (love it!), but I found it simply refreshing and will duplicate at home.
Our service was great… the weird stalker looking guy sitting at the bar with us was NOT! But, all is well. I like Green Valley. They have tons of restaurants to choose from and this is a good option to consider.
p. s. Those chairs at the bar are heavy!

I got the AYCE and ordered the Ecstasy.
So good!
Perfectly seared and served to perfection.
The only thing I would suggest is to not get the AYCE because I was full with only the Ecstasy and another roll!

This place is now No.1 as my favorite AYCE sushi places. This is only good from 5PM to 7PM and it costs for $ 28.95. It’s a small restaurant tucked away within GVR. Their best dish is the seared ahi (called Ecstasy) with their special sauce, normally, this is $ 14, so ordering this twice makes it a great deal.
Their fish quality is pretty darn good for AYCE, not too much rice on the sushi. It takes them a little longer to get your dishes, so patience is in order. If you order the udon, it’s highly recommended to share, as the bowl is BIG! The broth is perfect, not too salty but full of flavor, they use very good fish stock.
Highly recommended!

I came here only because it was comped and I had the cravings for sushi…
I ordered a bunch of sushi and Udon, sushi wasn’t bad… although the udon took over 20mins, finally I told the waitress to just forget the udon. The waitress doubted me that I could finish all my sushi and udon… hmmm really?
I doubt I would try this joint again, $ 28.95 for all you can eat… alot cheaper and better at other sushi restaurants.

We had the all you can eat special. The fish didn’t taste fresh (which makes sense why they give you such large portions, they are probably trying to use it up instead of discarding it) the waiter mixed up our appetizer and when we said it was the wrong one he told us to eat it because it’s usually $ 24.95 by itself and we were lucky to be
getting it for the all you can eat price. Then my boyfriends rice on his sushi tasted sour. We should have just left then and there but we felt bad since we had already put our roll orders in. Needless to say on the five minute drive we had to take home, both of us got sick extremely fast … From every end you could imagine.

We’ve visited this little sushi place a couple of times and it’s never steered us wrong. Our favorites: Godzilla Roll, Cowboy Roll, and the Green Bean Tempura that was recommended by our awesome server, Phyllis!
Great service, quality sushi, a great place you might overlook being in GV casino. But one of our favorites!

Ended up eating here on 3 occasions while at the GVR. This is a small space, with only a few tables, but plenty of seating at the sushi bar.
Lots of creative and traditional rolls on the menu. I pretty good selection of nigiri, and a nice variety of sake. My favorite was Sparkling Blueberry Sake, very refreshing and you can taste the berry flavor.
They offer an all-​you-​can eat option from 5 – 7 pm for $ 28.95. This is a very cost effective way to go when you are hungry and the all-​you-​can eat menu has almost everything on it. Beware, they will always serve rolls first to fill you up, so if you order nigiri make sure to specifically ask to have it brought out first.
P. S. You have to try the steamed chicken dumplings off the fresh sheet.

Great food with even lower pricing! Did the all-​you-​can-​eat deal with the new lower price of $ 28.95! (was $ 32.95, I think) My understanding is this is available Sunday — Thursday between 5pm — 7pm.
I was there on Monday, 10÷10÷11 about 6:30pm. I was told that as long as you get there and order this deal before 7pm, you can stay and eat beyond 7pm with no rush.
Great service and Excellent Sushi! I am a big Unagi (Eel) fan and really loved the Nigiri and Godzilla Roll. My chef was Fernando which is short for something else (he said) and my waitress was Phyllis. Both were really nice and helpful! Enjoy!

I come here ALL THE TIME!!! I know the chefs and the rest of the team members. They are great. Very helpful. I suggest ayce. It says max 1hour dining. But they don’t follow that rule. As long as u eat everything that u order u can stay as long as u want. So take it easy. Relax and order a few things at a time. I suggest take advantage of the appetizers n nigiri sushi.
If ur not too hungry, order the ocean paradise! It’s close to heaven!!! If u love mango n a bit of spicyness go for the super salmon! Those 2 r my favorite! Check it out!!!
Ooh n ecstasy for appetizers!!! Yummy
I posted pics of the menu!
Check it out!!!
G.a.

I have been playing at GVR for months now and only recently discovered the Sushi + Saki within. I was introduced this week by a friend and ended up opting not for the AYCE sushi and was delighted both by the atmosphere, food and service. I enjoyed the free meal so much, I decided to go back the next night to celebrate my girlfriends birthday, this time, deciding on the AYCE option.
We started off with ehe appetizer Ecstasy which is Japanese Radish and Tuna in a blossom design, resting in sauce with mayo. It is an expensive app and I was surprised to see it on the AYCE menu, but you have to try this. The artistry alone is awesome, but the taste is even better.
Over the next hour we killed a variety of rolls and sashimi (yellowtail, salmon and albacore — it was melt in your mouth). The service was great, Cesar taking the lead but the others pitching in and team serving was fantastic. There is a limit of one hour for the AYE menu, but with the team service, we never waited more than a few moments.
The food itslelf was fantastic, fresh, no off tastes or odors. The rice was superb and the sauces were amazing. This was my first AYCE and I plan on making this MY sushi joint.
Make sure to take care of the staff, and bring all of your friends. You will not be disappointed.

We went here for our final dinner in Vegas and it was a great way to end the trip! We opted for the all you can eat sushi menu and it saved us a bit of money on what we normally order (4 rolls and a couple appetizers). We decided to get a bit daring this time and tried all new rolls — and we were not disappointed. The Caterpillar roll was delicious! The tuna melted in our mouths and the other rolls (which I can’t remember the names of) were unique and delicious with a combo of seafood and tropical fruits!
The restaurant is small and cozy and the service was awesome. Our server was super friendly and tried to get us to order more so we got more out of the ‘all you can eat’ deal. He even checked to make sure that it was worth us paying for all you can eat versus al la carte.
Awesome restaurant in a good location.

Sushi + Sake + Spendy Prices
Do yourself a favor and go for the All You Can Eat sushi. No, not because you’re a glutton like me, but because it’s simply not worth ordering a-​la carte from here. Everything from the sushi to the sake is pricey, I made the mistake of ordering off the menu with some colleagues and threw down $ 250 for the 3 of us. AYCE Sushi night on from Sunday to Thursday at $ 32.99 per person. It might be spendier than other AYCE places, but trust me it’ll save you more in the long haul. Experimenting with the menu suddenly becomes easier when the prices are capped.
The restaurant is not the least bit extravagant, which makes it all the more hard to understand why it’s so expensive here. There is not much seating and the space is very open. From the outside the place looks a very unassuming Japanese joint, lessened by the fact its connected to the casino floor.
Service has been slow at times and our hostess was overly ditsy. Finding a place for us to sit became a chore and the wait staff didn’t seem that accommoodating. Unless you have a large group, sit at the bar instead.
Opting to sit at the bar allowed me to ignore most of the wait staff while interacting with the sushi chefs, all of which I’m happy to report are Japanese. Watching them go to work on making the sushi beautiful is truly a work of art. Our seared toro and wasabi mayo was fantastic, as was the Creamy Mango Salmon /​Creamy Scallop. The salmon was so smooth and the crunchy unagi rolls were delicious. Aside from the constant foodgasms, each bit of sashimi /​sushi was brilliantly presented and made for a fantastic photo op.
I wouldn’t think of the Green Valley Ranch to have a little gem like this. But kudos to management for allowing S+S to satisfy our sushi hunger pangs in Henderson.
