Plenty of Fish in the Sea
Step away from the strip and indulge in delicious sushi at Kabuto Edomae Sushi restaurant, a local favorite in Las Vegas. The chef at Kabuto creates a very authentic Japanese dining experience—he makes slight changes to the sushi menu almost daily, to ensure you get the freshest fish available, and always suggests the right sake for the right sushi dish.
