Yellowtail Las Vegas

Fantastic sushi place. Recommend the Akira Back Tuna Pizza, it’s unlike anything you’ve tried before. And the Pop Rocks Crab Roll is just plain fun! The Old Fashioned Samauri helps wash it all down. Plus, there’s a great view of the Bellagio fountains!

Yellowtail at the Bellagio offered a truly unforgettable dining experience. While the restaurant itself boasted a stunning design and panoramic views of the iconic Bellagio fountains, what truly elevated the experience was the innovative Japanese cuisine. Chef Akira Back's menu expertly blended tradition with modern flair. We began our meal with a selection of starters. The Shishito peppers offered a delightful contrast of textures - blistered and slightly smoky on the outside, with a tender and juicy interior. The gyoza were perfectly pan-fried. For our sushi selection, we embarked on a delicious tour of Yellowtail's creative rolls. The Mile High roll, a decadent combination of tempura crab, avocado, and asparagus, offered a delightful textural contrast. The crowning touch of mixed sashimi and spicy ponzu aioli added a burst of flavor. The Baked Crab hand roll was another winner, featuring a delightful combination of crispy crab, onions, and spicy aioli wrapped in soy paper. But the true star was the Angry Yellowtail. This dish, a play on the restaurant's name, offered a delightful kick with its combination of yellowtail, avocado, and Serrano pepper. The Popping Spicy Crab roll, featuring cucumber, asparagus, and Pop Rocks was a surprising textural twist, perfectly captured Yellowtail's playful and innovative approach to sushi. And of course, no sushi exploration is complete without a classic spicy tuna roll. Yellowtail's rendition did not disappoint, offering the perfect balance of heat and fresh tuna flavor. And to cap off the delightful dining experience, we shared a decadent chocolate cup for dessert. This rich and flavorful finale was the perfect ending to a truly special evening at Yellowtail. However, what truly set Yellowtail apart was the service. Our server, Justin, was fantastic. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and made excellent recommendations that perfectly catered to our tastes. His friendly and professional demeanor truly enhanced the entire dining experience. Overall, Yellowtail at Bellagio is a must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable and delightful dining experience in Las Vegas. From the innovative cuisine and stunning views to the exceptional service from staff like Justin, Yellowtail offered a truly special evening.

From beautiful atmosphere and fountain views to perfectly crafted cocktails and some of the best food you’ll ever have, this restaurant alone makes us want to plan another trip to Las Vegas. The oyster trio is so good we had three orders of them in one visit. Don’t overlook this gem, I know there’s so many options including celebrity chef restaurants all over, but I would rather come here over Gordon Ramsey’s or any other one of them any day! Service is excellent as well.
