What people say, in short
Kabuto Edomae is a small omakase counter on Spring Mountain Road that most diners recommend, and many name it as their top pick for sushi in Las Vegas. Many praise the quality of the food, and many see it as good value next to pricier counters; a couple advise booking ahead. One finds the appetizers and hot dishes less memorable than the sushi and calls the menu fairly simple, so fans of fusion sushi may be disappointed.
