After years of dining at the 'best' spots in Las Vegas, my wife and I finally experienced Endo for our anniversary and it was absolutely amazing. The Chef Endo and entire team put on an incredible performance; we were completely blown away. In my opinion, this is easily a two-Michelin-star caliber experience. If you haven't been yet, make it a priority. Highly, highly recommend! read more

Seriously, this might be one of my new favorite dining experiences ever! Highly recommend it to anyone who has the opportunity to go. And please don't take this the wrong way, but the pricing is actually fantastic for the incredible experience you receive--especially when compared to so many other experiences that cost much more and deliver far less. From the moment you're greeted outside and escorted in, you're instantly transported into another world. With two servers dressed entirely in black, three executive chefs, and Chef Endo Raku at the helm, you quickly realize just how exclusive this experience is. With only six seats per service and just two services each night, the journey feels incredibly intimate from the start. Once seated, all expectations disappear as you're guided through a carefully crafted narrative explaining what to expect and highlighting the special ingredients that will be showcased throughout the evening. Somehow, it sets the bar even higher than you imagined. Every course is thoughtfully selected and meticulously prepared, with detailed explanations that enhance both the flavors and the overall experience. From start to finish, it was a mind-blowing exploration of aromas, flavors, textures, and some of the most fascinating plating I've ever seen. The menu offered an amazing balance of land, sea, and animal, featuring techniques that included steaming, serving raw, poaching, grilling, searing, smoking, and even some gelatinous preparations that completely blew our minds. The sake selection, spirits, and champagne offerings were equally impressive. Even the visit to the laboratory was an unforgettable experience. Keep in mind there are very strict--but completely fair--rules and requirements that help preserve the integrity of the dining experience. My only complaint? I was so captivated by the beauty of each presentation, the storytelling, and simply enjoying every bite that I forgot to take many photos and videos. That doesn't happen often, but in this case, the phone definitely did not eat first. Photo credit to my cousin! read more

I've had many omakase experiences, but Endo is by far the best chef I've encountered. Every dish has its own unique flavor, and each course feels like a carefully crafted work of art. The presentation is beautiful, but what really stands out is how every bite bursts with unique and incredible flavor. What makes Endo's omakase even more special is that his menu changes with the seasons, so every visit offers something new and exciting. You can truly feel the thought and creativity behind each course. Endo is incredibly passionate about his food and his craft, and it shows in every single dish he serves. Watching him work and experiencing the progression of flavors throughout the meal makes the entire experience unforgettable. The staff is very friendly, ambience is top notch classy . If you're looking for a top-tier omakase experience, Endo is simply the best. read more

With meticulous preparation, Chef Endo (also the owner) and his team invite guests into Mr. Endo's whimsical and deeply personal culinary world. Nearly everything, down to the sparkling water, is sourced from Japan. Select elements--most notably the ultra-premium A5 Wagyu Hannari beef and handcrafted ceramic vessels--are imported directly from Kyoto, underscoring the intention and craftsmanship behind every detail and making the experience worth every penny. My favorite dish was the homemade tofu with bonito flakes, a seemingly simple course that showcased extraordinary depth and balance. I especially enjoyed the multi-phase presentation used throughout the meal. In several courses, guests are asked to taste the dish first in its pure form, then again after a complementary sauce is added. Experiencing the contrast between the two was both thoughtful and adventurous, highlighting how subtle changes can transform a dish entirely. The restaurant offers two seatings per night, with only six guests per seating, creating an intimate and immersive atmosphere. Chef Endo is relatively shy, yet he warmly welcomes guests into his world through exceptional cuisine and a carefully curated experience. Service is impeccable, striking a perfect balance between attentiveness and discretion. Reservations are invitation-only and coordinated via text. This is a restaurant to watch closely--and one that should undoubtedly be on the radar when Michelin returns to Las Vegas in 2026. read more

This review is based on my visit on 12/14/24. A dinner at Endo is a singular experience - not from the standpoint that you'd do it only once, but from the standpoint of being exceptionally stellar. All of my senses were delighted over the course of 2 hours, in which we were treated with one stunning dish after the other. Fresh tofu with aged bonito flakes, an assortment of appetizers, a perfectly cooked piece of fish, sashimi presented like precious jewels on exquisite plates, perfectly cooked ankimo, amazing Wagyu from a prefecture in Japan served in very selected locations in the US, an impressive pot of rice festively adorned with uni and salmon roe, ending with an incredibly light and creamy chestnut dessert that just defies explanation. Endo is an absolute splurge. Is it pricey? Yes. Is it an incredible value given the high degree of artistry, quality of ingredients, gorgeous ambiance, and incredible level of service? Also yes. 10/10 recommend, and I am already thinking about a repeat visit for a different season. read more

The best dinner I've had in Las Vegas! Went to ENDO for my birthday, and we had such an amazing, intimate dinner with incredible food and thoughtful attention to detail. The experience felt magical, complete with a little surprise that made the night extra special. The staff was friendly and attentive, the presentation was beautiful, and the flavors were even more impressive. Some of my personal favorites were: hanari (elegant) beef, uni mousse, and the unagi/foie gras skewer. Truly amazing from start to finish! read more

Great food completely ruined by an incredibly rude and arrogant manager. We had high expectations for Endo and booked the 8:45 PM omakase. Unfortunately, our Southwest flight was unexpectedly delayed, pushing our arrival time to around 9:00 PM. Knowing we would be slightly late, we proactively called the restaurant to explain our uncontrollable situation. We politely asked if we could either reschedule OR simply have the chef set aside the first 1-2 courses we might miss so we could eat them when we arrived. We explicitly stated we did not want to interrupt the chef's flow or make other guests wait. The Japanese manager on the phone was extremely dismissive and condescending. He refused to even ask the chef, telling us "missed is missed." When I tried to logically explain that we were paying full price ($1000+ for two) and just wanted our portions saved, he rudely snapped: "I made it very clear that I cannot guarantee or you can just cancel with NO refund." When I tried to reason with him further, he literally cut me off and said, "The conversation does not need to be continued." To make matters worse, upon landing, he sent a text message with a completely unnecessary and passive-aggressive opening line (I have screenshots). The chef is talented and the food is good, but the hospitality (omotenashi) is completely non-existent. For a restaurant that charges $500 per person, you expect at least basic human decency and professional customer service, not to be treated with such hostility and disrespect. If you experience any travel delays, expect zero empathy and prepare to be talked down to. We will not be returning. read more

All the food is incredibly delicious. It's like watching an entertainment show when Mr. Endo cooking. The only 6 seats make us in so a special situation and precious time! Service is great! Their performance was outstanding, and without question Ambience also! Yes, It is a pricey restaurant but it's worth visiting there! You won't regret and you will be able to have a fabulous time with newly discovered foods and will enjoy with new matching fresh ingredients(I mean Seasonal food). You will be happy and excited in an infinite taste! It is Mr.Endo's Endless Pursuit of a Taste! read more

It's hard to express in words just how incredible the omakase experience was at Endo. Every aspect from the esthetics of the establishment to the meticulous detail of every course was out of this world               Be prepared!              It used to be membership only. They only seat 4 pairs, no single reservations, 8 seats, & I had to drop Philip Tzeng's (( @lasvegasfill )) name 3-months back! When he posted about this experience, I immediately started planning. Everything is handled over text, & pro tip, take Uber because the parking lot is tiny. There's multiple award winners in the same place. Get there early if you want to see the architecture, & make sure to check out the bathroom for the fanciest toilet you'll ever see. No, it's not made of gold, but it's the most advanced I've ever used‼              Select your company wisely!              Getting to share this with the beautifully talented author, influencer, & long time friend Samantha March (( @marchbeautyword )) made the night. Hell when we first became friends back at Tuscan University, she basically only ate nuggies. All grown up! A feast like this should have the communication to match, & I'm forever grateful for having the night I needed for far too long. Now about the feast‼              Like I said, I can't point to a single aspect of this that stood out more than the rest, every component was flawless. If you've never been, there's a surprise you're not allowed to capture when you select your chopsticks & holder. Like Harry Potter selecting his wand, I picked the red chopsticks & paired them with a rubber ducky. They didn't have an owl. I've had A5 before but the farm they selected, & preparation techniques yielded the most unique buttery pieces of meat I've ever had. The soups were robust, full flavored, & trust me when I say you have enough courses to be full. They sent us home with goodie bags. I always fight to save room for dessert. This one is          Chef Mitsuo Desu is a legend‼ read more

Honestly one of the best if not the best meal I've had! I have had other omakase experiences (including KAME) and, while others had equally luxurious ingredients, none other has actually tasted so good or been prepared as masterfully. And it was much more filling than I was expecting. Absolutely worth it for a special occasion or just to experience the meal of a lifetime! read more

Amazing experience. Each dish was so delicious it was hard for me to pick one. The ingredients were shown to you and prepared in front of you, so you knew exactly what you were eating. Everyone was also very nice and friendly, with a peaceful environment. I left with a happy belly and a happy heart. I definitely recommend this, so get reservations as soon as possible. read more
