Morimoto

Had a pre- wedding dinner with family. I have always wanted to have dinner here. We were seated immediately and the wait staff was very knowledgeable. The ensures that we didn't order duplicates of sides as they were big enough to share. The cocktail menu had a large selection. Stated off with sushi, shrimp appetizer and oyster appetizers. I don't eat oysters but others in my party did. I ordered the filet mignon and the plate was sizzling which was a nice surprise! My cousin had the rib eye platter and the steak could have fed 2 or 3 people. My fiancé had chicken with vegetables. The cheesecake was not average at all and the molten chocolate was the best! I honestly thought people would have dressed nicer but it had a nice casual vibe. Will definitely be back!

I wanted to change things up and decided to dine at Morimoto. The white fish carpaccio was a highlight, with its delicate slices complemented by a masterful use of garlic that enhanced the flavors without overpowering them. The whole lobster épice came with a lemon crème fraîche, which was solid overall. The Wagyu beef truly melts in your mouth, showcasing the quality and preparation excellence that Morimoto is known for.However, the service was just okay. While the staff was courteous, there were moments where I had to flag them down to ask for another drink, which slightly detracted from the overall dining experience.In terms of ambiance, Morimoto Las Vegas is a contemporary Japanese design that combines delicate beauty and elegance, creating a great atmosphere for diners. Overall, it was a good experience, but considering the price point, I believe there are other dining establishments in Las Vegas that offer a more comprehensive value for the money. Nonetheless, for fans of Chef Morimoto and those seeking innovative Japanese cuisine, this restaurant is worth a visit.

Morimoto was conveniently located downstairs at the MGM Grand where we were staying at. We went on a Saturday evening and the restaurant was not busy. There were a number of large groups of people and a handful of couples that dined in. There were plenty of open tables. The decor felt sleek and had a cool aesthetic. My friend recommended ordering a bunch of sides because she's enjoyed them in the past. We ordered the tuna tacos, carpaccio, pork, sticky ribs, brussels sprouts, duck fried rice, and pork chop. My favorites were the carpaccio and duck fried rice. The food was pretty tasty but salty at times. We had to ask them to heat up the pork chop because it wasn't fully cooked through. However, our server was really kind and took it back but it still didn't taste that phenomenal after cooking. They kindly offered to comp it.The service was pretty quick and our server was very friendly. We had a group of men sitting next to us who hit on us during dinner and kept making comments which kind of affected the atmosphere but we humored them. It is Vegas after all.

Another trip to Vegas meant another dinner at Morimoto. Always delicious, never disappointed. Again we go the wagyu beef carpaccio, shishito peppers, sashimi, and a steak. Oddly the steak did not come out on a sizzling platter but was cooked perfectly and was melt in your mouth tender. Service was prompt as the restaurant got busier.

This was a fun experience. It's a more laid back vibe compared to some of the other sushi restaurants i have dined at while still being elevated. Our waiter was very friendly and fun. The sushi was fresh and i especially enjoyed the rolls i got. Both desserts we ordered were plated beautifully and tasted delicious. The chocolate one was my favorite. They also have amazing espresso martinis which were a big hit for our group!

The food was incredible and the service was even better. We stopped by to just have drinks and some same sushi and OMG, was it amazing! I absolutely recommend trying this place no matter what! The flavor and the freshness was amazing!!!

Loved having dinner at Morimoto! Here is a breakdown of the food we ordered.Miso Soup: delicious savory soup with silken tofu, a nice start to the meal.Sticky Ribs: some of the better Asian ribs I've had. You can tell the meat was high quality and the mandarin glaze was absolutely amazing. Perfect balance of sweet and spicy. Chasu Pork: this was a great dish that they assemble tableside in a hot stone bowl! Eye catching plating and presentation of this dish. The food itself was solid but nothing amazing, but still a super fun dish to order.Soy Braised Cod: loved this dish! A soy braised cod is always solid and this one hit all the marks. Tender fish with a delicious sweet soy glaze. Morimoto Old Fashioned: this drink was delicious made with Japanese whiskey and brown sugar syrup. A great drink to accompany the meal.The service was professional, we got great recommendations from the server. The vibe was classy and elegant but had the Vegas flair. Overall great dinner!!

After walking past here hundreds of times and loving the vibes, I finally decided to take my wife to try Morimoto!Morimoto has some of the most tasty Japanese dishes I've ever had. The Hamachi was incredible, service was immediate and the ambiance was epic. My wife had the mixed greens with the white fish and it was probably the best thing I had that evening. After a few cocktails, our dishes and a few pieces of sushi we got the bill - extremely overpriced given the portions. We will be back, but probably only for a special occasion.

I recently visited Morimoto in Vegas during a conference at MGM Grand and unfortunately, I was quite disappointed. For such an expensive restaurant I expected much more. The food tasted and looked similar to any regular sushi spot at half the price.Miso Soup - Very basic. It had about six small pieces of soft tofu and a few thin strips of green onion, there was no seaweed in sight. Maybe I was expecting too much? While I appreciated that it wasn't overly salty, it was underwhelming so I didn't finish it. Soft Shell Crab Roll - Tasty, but nothing extraordinary. The crab was crunchy and the avocado balanced the richness but it didn't stand out. Spicy Tuna Roll - I liked the large chunks of tuna, but some pieces were stringy and hard to chew. The sushi rice on both rolls was bland and forgettable. My rolls also came with just two strips of ginger so I had to ask for more. My experience: I sat at the sushi bar but the setup was high so the sushi chefs didn't interact with customers. Maybe this is how it was supposed to be? They didn't even acknowledge me when I sat down. On the bright side, my server Mari was wonderful and attentive, l which was the highlight of my experience.Overall, I've had much better sushi at hole in the wall or strip mall sushi joints. Morimoto unfortunately did not live up to the hype.

Morimoto was recommended to me by one of my co-workers. I'm glad we were able to dine here. There are so many different flavors to choose from on the menu. Everything tasted delicious and all of the flavors from our dishes just blended perfectly together, just as our server Steve said they would. This is simply one of those places that you want to return to in order to try the rest of the menu!
