Best Omakase in Las Vegas, 2026

Kabuto takes the top spot as the city's purest counter — a small Edomae room on Spring Mountain Road in Chinatown that runs two fixed seatings a night, at 5:30 and 7:30. The cooking is disciplined and traditional: the $125 omakase brings twelve nigiri and two appetisers, the $175 better fish and three, with hand-formed shari and a quiet, chef-led pace. It is the most controlled sushi cooking in Las Vegas and the seat against which the others are measured; book one to three weeks ahead, more for weekends.

Yui Edomae is second on the strength of its sourcing — chef Gen Mizoguchi, widely credited with raising the bar for Las Vegas sushi, flies in rare fish from Japan and builds simple, exact bites around it. The deluxe omakase, paired with sake or wine, runs about $170, and the room is calmer and more formal than most Chinatown counters. The right seat for a diner who wants the rarest fish in the city and the quietest counter to eat it at. Book one to two weeks ahead.

Wakuda is the Strip's marquee omakase — Michelin-starred chef Tetsuya Wakuda, of Singapore's Waku Ghin, runs an eight-seat omakase room inside a neon-lit Venetian dining room. The counter menu is about ten courses of fine sushi and grilled dishes, paired with rare Japanese whisky and small-batch sake, in the most polished setting of any room on this list. The right seat for a hosted dinner or a high-stakes occasion where the room matters as much as the fish. Book well ahead.

Sushi by Scratch brings chef Phillip Frankland Lee's omakase format — first starred at his Montecito original — to a seventeen-seat counter inside Resorts World. The roughly seventeen-course menu runs about $225 and leans inventive and theatrical, with house-cured and torched pieces alongside straight nigiri, performed at close quarters. The right seat for a diner who wants a modern, narrated omakase rather than a strict Edomae one. Book a week or two ahead.

Sushi Hiroyoshi is the value pick of the guide — chef Hiro Yoshi, formerly of Blue Ribbon, runs a counter in a west Charleston strip mall well outside Chinatown's main spoke. The seasonally changing omakase, about $100, moves through cooked chef-chosen courses into a progression of immaculate nigiri, and regulars make a credible case for it as the best omakase in the city full stop. The right counter for a first serious omakase without the top-tier price. Book one to two weeks ahead.

Morimoto rounds out the guide as Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto's MGM Grand flagship, reopened on the Strip in 2026. Alongside the broad Japanese menu, the sushi bar offers a chef's omakase, and the draw is the combination of a celebrated name, a polished hotel room and an easier reservation than the Chinatown counters above it. The right seat for a group or a guest who wants the big-name experience without chasing a fixed Edomae seating. Book one week ahead.
