Compiled by the Restaurants for Kings editorial team · Published June 20, 2026 · Updated June 20, 2026
Five chefs share three seats a night at Kabuto, which tells you most of what you need to know about the best sushi in Las Vegas: it happens in small rooms, off the Strip, run by people who care more about the rice than the slot machines. For years the serious omakase (chef's choice) in this city was a Chinatown secret, a cluster of Edomae counters along Spring Mountain Road that locals guarded while tourists queued for buffets a few miles east. That has shifted. The new resorts have lured big-name sushi chefs to the Strip with budgets to match, and now the city offers both: intimate, value-driven Chinatown counters and high-priced casino-hotel rooms. Ranked here on the sushi, the room and what the bill buys, with the booking route for each.
1.Kabuto Edomae Sushi
The Chinatown counter that set the city's Edomae standard; book weeks ahead for the best-value serious sushi in Las Vegas.
Kabuto Edomae Sushi, at 5040 Spring Mountain Road along the Las Vegas Chinatown corridor, is the counter that taught the city what omakase could be, and it remains the benchmark. The kitchen runs a rotation of chefs handling just a few guests per seating, two seatings a night, and serves traditional Edomae nigiri brushed with house-made soy and served at the right temperature, recognised on the World's 50 Best Discovery list. It is small, unassuming from the street, and books up weeks ahead on Resy and by phone, with a multi-day notice for larger parties. For the purest, best-value serious sushi in the city, this is the first booking to make. Expect roughly 120 to 180 dollars for the omakase, before drinks.
Book on Resy or by phone, weeks ahead; the full Edomae nigiri omakase.
2.Yui Edomae Sushi
A former Kabuto chef's own Edomae room with tiered menus; book the deluxe omakase for the charcoal-grilled course and pairing.
Yui Edomae Sushi, chef Gen Mizoguchi's counter at 3460 Arville Street, is the off-Strip rival that grew directly out of Kabuto, where Mizoguchi cooked before opening his own room. It marries the same fastidious Edomae approach, Japanese-sourced fish over carefully seasoned rice, with a tiered menu that lets you trade up. The deluxe omakase, the most elaborate, adds a charcoal-grilled platter, soup and dessert to the nigiri run, with sake or wine pairings available. The setting is simple and the focus is squarely on the counter. It is the pick when you want the Chinatown level of craft with a bit more range and ceremony than the smallest rooms allow. Open evenings, Monday to Saturday; the deluxe menu runs roughly 150 to 250 dollars.
Reserve for evening service; the deluxe omakase with the charcoal-grilled course.
3.ITO
Fontainebleau's hidden 12-seat counter from chefs Masa Ito and Kevin Kim; book for the most ambitious Strip omakase in the city.
ITO, tucked inside the Fontainebleau on the Strip, is the most ambitious sushi counter the new wave of resorts has produced: a discreet twelve-seat room from chefs Masa Ito and Kevin Kim, reached through the hotel and run as a fixed-menu Edomae experience. The format is an eighteen-course meal at around 400 dollars, with two seatings a night at roughly 6 and 8:45, and the sourcing and presentation are pitched at the high end of American omakase. It is the Strip answer to the Chinatown counters: pricier and more polished, with a destination-restaurant sense of occasion. This is the booking for a special Las Vegas night when you want the sushi and the setting to match. Reserve ahead through the restaurant for one of the two seatings.
Book one of the two nightly seatings; the 18-course Edomae omakase.
4.Kame Omakase
Chef Eric Kim's luxe Chinatown counter, the priciest in town; book the top menu for an all-in, high-grade tasting splurge.
Kame Omakase, chef Eric Kim's counter at 3616 West Spring Mountain Road, is the most expensive dedicated sushi room in Las Vegas, with set menus around 350 and 500 dollars and a reservation-only door. The cooking pushes beyond pure nigiri into a kaiseki-influenced tasting, leaning on luxury ingredients, and the 500-dollar menu is the most extravagant omakase in the city. It is the splurge pick for a diner who wants the full high-grade experience and is not counting the bill, set in the same Chinatown corridor as the value counters but pitched a tier above on price and luxury. Reserve well ahead; this is a special-occasion booking rather than a casual sushi night, and the top menu is a genuine investment.
Reservation only, book ahead; the premium tasting menu, sake pairing optional.
5.Wakuda
Two-Michelin-star chef Tetsuya Wakuda's Strip room with a private omakase suite; book the counter for a luxe resort sushi night.
Wakuda, in the Palazzo lobby at The Venetian, carries the name of Tetsuya Wakuda, the chef behind two-Michelin-starred rooms in Singapore and a celebrated career in Sydney. The restaurant is a broad modern-Japanese operation, but the draw for this list is its dedicated omakase: a private room and counter where the kitchen serves a tasting of sushi and composed Japanese courses with resort-grade service and a serious drinks program. It is less austere and more luxurious than the Chinatown counters, the pick for a diner who wants a big-name chef's room on the Strip without leaving the Venetian. Book through the hotel for the omakase seats specifically, as the main dining room is a different, more a-la-carte experience.
Book the omakase room through the Venetian; the chef's sushi and composed-course tasting.
6.Mizumi
Wynn's lavish Japanese room with a koi-pond pagoda; book chef Min Kim's omakase for the most theatrical sushi setting in town.
Mizumi, at Wynn Las Vegas, is the resort room to book when the setting is half the point: a lavish Japanese restaurant wrapped around a koi pond and a waterfall, with a floating pagoda table and several dining formats under one roof, from robata to teppanyaki. For this list the draw is chef Min Kim's omakase, served at the counter or the pagoda, a sushi-led tasting delivered with full Wynn-level polish. It is the most theatrical and arguably the most romantic of the Strip options, better suited to a celebration or a date than a purist's sushi pilgrimage. Book through the Wynn, request the omakase specifically, and ask about the pagoda table for the full effect.
Reserve through the Wynn; chef Min Kim's omakase, the pagoda table if available.
How Las Vegas eats omakase
Las Vegas sushi divides cleanly along geography. The traditional, best-value omakase lives off the Strip, in the Chinatown corridor along Spring Mountain Road, where Kabuto, Kame and Yui run small Edomae counters for diners who know to leave the resorts behind. These rooms book ahead, charge less than the Strip and concentrate on the rice and the fish rather than the spectacle. The Strip, meanwhile, has spent the past few years importing serious sushi talent, so ITO, Wakuda and Mizumi now offer high-priced, high-polish counters inside the casinos.
The smart move depends on the night. For the purest sushi and the best value, drive to Chinatown and book Kabuto or Yui. For a special-occasion Strip dinner where the room and the service are part of the experience, the resort counters earn their premium. Either way, reserve ahead, because the seats are few. For the rest of the city beyond sushi, the Las Vegas dining guide maps it by neighborhood and occasion, and the global view sits on the best omakase worldwide pillar.
Where not to look for it
Skip these for a real omakase
The all-you-can-eat sushi deals and casino buffets. Las Vegas is full of cheap, high-volume sushi aimed at tourists, and none of it is what this list is about. An omakase is a chef forming each piece to order at a counter; an AYCE menu is the opposite of that. If the headline is the price of the deal rather than the name of the chef, it is not on this page for a reason.
Mizumi or Wakuda for a quiet, purist sushi night. Both are excellent, but they are large, lavish resort rooms built for occasion and theatre, not the hushed, counter-focused experience of a Chinatown Edomae bar. If you want the chef's full attention and the rice as the star, book Kabuto or Yui instead and save the resorts for a celebration.
Frequently asked
What is the best omakase in Las Vegas?
Kabuto Edomae Sushi, in the Spring Mountain Road Chinatown corridor, is the longtime benchmark for traditional Edomae omakase in Las Vegas, a small counter recognised by the World's 50 Best Discovery list. Yui Edomae, opened by a former Kabuto chef, is its closest off-Strip rival. On the Strip, ITO at Fontainebleau is the most ambitious counter. Choose Kabuto or Yui for classic Edomae value, ITO for a high-end Strip experience.
Is the best Las Vegas sushi on the Strip or in Chinatown?
Both, but the serious traditional omakase clusters off the Strip along Spring Mountain Road in Las Vegas's Chinatown, where Kabuto, Kame and Yui run intimate Edomae counters at sharper prices than the resorts. The Strip answer is newer and pricier: ITO at Fontainebleau and Wakuda at The Palazzo bring big-name chefs and luxury rooms. For the purest, best-value sushi, locals point you to Chinatown; for a special-occasion Strip night, the resort counters deliver.
How much does omakase cost in Las Vegas?
Prices span a wide range. The Chinatown Edomae counters like Kabuto and Yui run roughly 120 to 250 dollars a head depending on the menu tier. Kame Omakase is the priciest dedicated counter in the city, with menus around 350 and 500 dollars. ITO at Fontainebleau charges about 400 dollars for an 18-course meal. Resort rooms like Wakuda and Mizumi vary by what you order. Drinks, sake pairings and service are extra at all of them.
Do you need a reservation for omakase in Las Vegas?
Yes, the counters are small and most are reservation-only. Kabuto seats only a handful of guests per seating and books up weeks ahead on Resy and by phone. Kame and ITO are reservation-only with fixed seatings. Yui takes bookings for its evening service. Wakuda and Mizumi, inside resorts, are easier to book through the hotel but the dedicated omakase seats are limited. Book one to four weeks out, especially for weekends and for the intimate Chinatown rooms.
What is Edomae sushi?
Edomae is the Tokyo-bay style of sushi built before refrigeration on curing, marinating and aging fish rather than serving it plainly raw. At an Edomae omakase the chef forms each piece of nigiri to order and brushes it with nikiri soy so you eat it straight away without a dipping dish, over warm, vinegared rice. Kabuto and Yui in Las Vegas are explicitly Edomae counters, which is why their nigiri arrives seasoned and at the right temperature rather than as a plate of sashimi and rice to assemble yourself.
