Sentiment analysis: I came for dinner with miss Teri W. (thank you for the invite!) and it was a pretty nice treat. If you like Yellowtail, Nobu and such you might really like this place. This is Yellowtail's sister restaurant, in fact, opened up by Chef Akira Back. We had a tasting menu set for us, so we just let the "omakase" come forth and didn't question it. *Yellowtail, serrano chilies w/ ponzu - nice freshness of fish, good, but standard. *White Fish Carpaccio- it was a white fish I could not pin point but the menu says Hirame. I do like the crispy shallot bits in here to set off the fish. *Rock Shrimp Tempura - this was lightly battered then tossed in a mayo based spicy sauce. It's a bit spicy, sweet, savory and had nice crunch. Quite nice. *Crispy rice with tuna - This was nice texture play. Good fresh tuna, nice crunch from the rice, a bit of seaweed, a bit creamy and tangy sauce. *Crispy Calamari - I really loved this as they achieved a lightness in the batter that is hard to achieve. It's damn beautiful in fact when this subtle thing happens . The jalapeno, fish sauce and mint jelly was different of a sauce, but I did enjoy it. I could eat a basket to myself, but you know can't be a heathen. *Toban Filet - They do well with presenting it, coming steaming out a hole of the hot pot and then they unveil it at the table and pour a special soy. Very tender filet mignon and had shiitake and sea beans to accompany it. *Jidori Chicken - good as far as Jidori goes, but it was alright in the scheme of the dinner. It had more of a salty/savory sauce and with the rich puree and kimchee green beans I feel a tiny bit of acid might elevate and cut it to make it better. The crisp of the chicken and the juiciness was good though. *Hot Mess Roll - it was a crab roll topped with various fish like a poke and screaming O sauce. This was decent, but I feel it's weird a high end restaurant doesn't use real crab, but krab. *007 Octopussy - crab salad wrapped with cucumber, topped with spicy tako and crispies. This was a refreshing roll. I really liked the combination of the tako with the cucumber and creamy crab. *Crispy Pork Belly Roll - it's pork belly with skin and fat on topped with cole slaw and had a honey like sauce. This was different and the textures and flavors were lovely together. Great meld of crispy, soft, crunchy, creamy, salty, sweet. A favorite of the night. *Chocolate lava cake - very rich and good, needed more ice cream *Mochi (green tea, chocolate, vanilla) - definitely fresh made. Good, but standard. Service from our main server was friendly enough and our drinks kept filled. The bussers that brought food were rather fast though. They announced and left and there were a few times I had to ask "Did you hear what they said it was?" I just tasted it and figured it out myself and compared that versus the menu to know what dishes were had. It wasn't busy, homie you can slow your roll a little. The pace of the dishes though was fairly good. We had most things coming as we were consuming the last bits of something. It's a plus as I've been to dinners where the pace drags on. I can talk peoples heads off, but few people can commit to sit there for half a day. If you're on the strip and looking for a good Japanese, Japanese Fusion then consider this spot. I'm glad I got to try it. It wasn't really a restaurant on my radar, but that pork belly roll is different enough to order again.

Sentiment analysis: Lo mein noodles with pork. Too little noodles and lots of pork. Odd. Pork could have been good, but it was barely lukewarm. Came with a little bowl of fish broth on the side. Pretty crowded place. Lots of the people are having soup and congee. I see at least one other reviewer commenting on the lukewarm pork too, so it wasn't just this one time.

Sentiment analysis: If I was just judging this place on how their cupcakes looked, they would get 5 stars, unfortunately however, these cupcakes don't taste nearly as good as they look. I've tried their cupcakes several different times, each time hoping that this cupcake would be better but it never is. The cake part of the cupcakes is generally ok- moist but really nothing special. The frosting is the most disappointing part of the cupcake for me. Each flavor of their frosting I've tried tastes like the same sickly sweet flavor (and I'm a person who generally loves really sweet things). It doesn't matter what flavor of frosting it is, it all tastes the same. I'm not a good baker and I can make better cupcakes out of a cupcake mix box.
