    TARU is an awesome spot. Welcoming & chill vibe, friendly & attentive service (Thank You John), solid beer list, and a delicious menu. Our favorite bite is their 420 Roll. We highly recommend TARU.

    Some of the best Japanese Food I've had! Everything tasted fresh. Sushi rice was plump and soft with perfect starch to hold together perfectly. The party roll was heavenly. Light and so fresh. The seafood Ramen was balanced and soothing. The staff was attentive and anticipated our needs without being intrusive. The were helpful in explaining the menu and guiding us to great choices for our palettes. Overall this was a special dining experience.

    We enjoyed our meal so much after we asked for the music to be turned down. I would have rated the music as 5 for too loud, but that wasn’t an option. Hazuki, our server, along with David, were great. All the recommendations were perfect. Definitely recommend. Just don’t get it confused with Korean BBQ place next door, which our Uber driver did and we walked into the wrong place initially.

    We had a wonderful dinner & evening! The decor, lighting, music & hospitality was welcoming. My wife & I decided to have the Sushi style dinner, allowing the Chef to make our choices. The meal was fabulous! We also had the pleasure of meeting the Owner, she was gracious while making delicious suggestions. We very much look forward to repeating the experience.

    I’ve been in Las Vegas for 15 years and nothing compares to Taru!! The food here is absolutely to die for!! This restaurant should be a Star Rating of 5.0, bcuz they do not miss. Chef Joshi is particular with the use of soy sauce and as a soy sauce lover, his advice to enjoy it minimally and really taste the fish and kizami wasabi is spot on! I have never been to Japan to enjoy the finest sushi, but I have a feeling this place is the trend you want to hop on and fast! Their fish is the fresh and delicious. I enjoyed an omakase and that is an array of dishes from sashimi, nigiri & rolls to fresh scallops, hot stone short rib ishiyaki and even uni pasta. My first 3 dishes were the freshest fish I’ve had in Vegas on and off the strip and the final roll, shu toro roll, was a game changer and definitely will fill you up. The sake I sipped on while enjoying this fabulous meal, the star of the show, Kubota is not only price friendly as it offers an option for 300ml at $40 & 720ml at $100, but has the punch you need to thoroughly enjoy your experience. My server was Jon and Hazuki and they took great care of me & recommended some really awesome choices. The ambience is very tranquil and comforting and you feel at peace when you’re having the best sushi Las Vegas has to offer, hands down! It is an experience and a privilege to dine here and I will always be grateful this place exists here in Chinatown Las Vegas. Come and cherish this wonderful experience!!

    Everything was amazing. Service Food Ambiance ……. Staff and Owner were so professional and yet friendly. Chefs were entertaining and very knowledgeable. A must for any sushi foodie who doesn’t want to pay the ridiculous prices for poor fare on the strip. Once you go to Taru and realize the whole area is packed with amazing restaurants you will never eat at the big hotels on the strip again. Thank you Joon. We will be back.
