Went here for a birthday dinner on a bit of a whim and wow were we impressed! The food, ambience, and service were all excellent. We had some stragglers for our reservation due to some unexpected traffic on the strip and we never felt rushed. Happy was our server and he made the entire experience special and catered to our needs. The hostesses were also top notch. The food was phenomenal, especially the seafood and sushi dishes. Some of the best sashimi I have ever had. We will definitely be back!

What a + dining experience at Wakuda. Our group of 4 enjoyed the most amazing dinner. We had plenty of time to enjoy exquisite cocktails inlcuding sake. Everything here is insanely delicious with unique flavors. The team at Wakuda present each dish with such enthusiasm for each ingredient.
We can’t wait to come back for another visit the wonderful team at Wakuda! There are so many decadent dishes to choose from here.
Enjoy your meal and the gorgeous views with amazing artwork.

I really enjoyed this place. Came for my besties 21st birthday and they gave her a free cocktail which was so sweet! Beautiful decor and delicious food. It’s not super filling and the portions are small so we ordered a lot haha.

I had one of the best sushi experiences of my life at Wakuda! I ate at the original Tetsuya’s in Sydney on my honeymoon 15 years ago, so it was so exciting to get to try Wakuda closer to home. This meal was everything I’d hoped for and more! Amazing vibes, absolutely delicious food, and impeccable service. My server Toshi was OUTSTANDING – his knowledge of sushi in general, and the menu specifically, made the experience even more enjoyable. He helped me pick out a custom multiple course journey that was full of amazing flavors and bites that made me go “hold on I need another one of those!”.I rarely go back to the same restaurants in vegas because there are so many fantastic places to try and I’m only here a few times a year, but I’ve already made a reservation for my next trip!
(If you’re still reading this, order the Wakuda special Akami. It’s SO SO SO SO GOOD. Also the miso ice cream.)

Wrote this review with the help of ChatGPT. It was particularly fascinating how ChatGPT was able to pick up details like the nori shell of the tacos just from my pictures. Pretty cool.
From the minute I walked in, Wakuda felt modern, elegant, and quietly luxurious, with dim lighting, soft music, and just the right amount of buzz from the bar and dining room.
I started with a tropical cocktail garnished with fresh pineapple and a dark cherry. It was bright, refreshing, and perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and the presentation was gorgeous.
The tuna and salmon tacos were a standout. The crispy nori shell with fresh tuna and salmon was delicious. Clean flavors, generous fish, and perfect texture. Each bite tasted like a miniature celebration.
Wagyu served tableside on a hot stone, with a dramatic flame presentation. This is the one place that could have been better. The preparation of the Wagyu which was intended to lock the fat in actually made it less flavorful than when Kagoshima A5 is grilled with no prep.
Dessert was my favorite part and a culinary journey on its own. A mound of fresh strawberries on shaved ice imported from Japan, topped with cream, with a cloud of cotton candy floating above it. It looked theatrical, but the flavors were light, fruity, and not overly sweet. Then the server came by and told me if I digged into the shaved ice, I would find jellies and caramel ice cream, which of course I did. Perfect finish.

Great ambience music and decor, but food was disappointing. We were expecting a close to nobu experience with the prices, but the otoro didn’t taste fresh chip it came with was too greasy, Fried food oil tasted old, we tried 3 types of carpaccio and all of them flavor was not balanced, ramen was fairly price but not yummy. Service was quite well to end the experience on a good note. Would not come back for the food, but definitely fun for one time.

We are Vegas locals and went there for wife’s birthday after a spa day at Canyon Ranch in the Venetian (also excellent, and locals get a 26% discount on Mondays and Tuesdays).It is on the darker side but creates a nice ambiance. The waiter, named Happy, was excellent. Their take on an old fashioned was superb. The miso, beet salad, lobster roll, scallops, mochi, and miso ice cream were each a wonderful explosion of flavors. Definitely a great experience and will gladly return with friends or family to let them enjoy the place!

This place never lets me down! A must visit everytime we stay at the Palazzo. Our server was amazing, the music and vibes are good without being too clubby. The sushi is fresh!

I brought my wife here for her birthday last week for both of our first time. As locals it’s a rare occasion for us to venture to the strip for a dinner night but this place came highly recommended and I now I really know why. The genuine hospitality is felt from the moment you walk in. The hosts greet you with smiles, eye contact and a welcoming tone. After checking us in they even offered to take a picture for us which I felt was a classy touch. That’s never been offered to me before. We were seated in the bar/lounge area which had a beautiful vibe. Our table was a perfect setting for a date night. Our server and bartender, Visente was truly one of a kind. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the menu was encouraging. We took many of his recommendations for the food, and all of them for the drinks. He asked our preferences beforehand and then knocked it out of the park. Every drink delicious and unique esp the one with the wasabi powder on the rim. The food was incredible. And if you ask me why I’ll tell you this, temperature and timing. Everything was prepared and presented to perfection. Not a single miss. Food runners presentation and explanation of dishes was also on point and appreciated. The tenderloin in my wife’s words, “the best piece of meat she’s ever had”. No offense taken. The wagyu fried rice was my favorite. The crispy spicy tuna and the kanpachi carpaccio were delicious and memorable also. Dessert was fantastic. And an unexpected highlight was the orange creamsicle cocktail to really cap things off. This place was a 10/10. Please, local or visitor eat here if you are looking for a dinner experience that truly stands out. See you soon Wakuda.

Great atmosphere, and the reception desk and wait staff were very nice and accommodating. However, the food overall was just okay, with most dishes being too salty. The wagyu sushi was good, though. Not sure if I would go back next time.
