Mr. Shota - Garlic tuna i wasnt laying I probably eat like 20 Of this every time i go - Sushi Bars Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I can't believe it's taken me this long to write this review, but here we are. We've been to a ton of AYCE sushi spots around Las Vegas, and in my opinion, this one is the best. We've been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. The menu is huge, the quality of the fish is consistently excellent, and the rolls are incredible. Honestly, I think they have some of the best sushi rolls I've ever had AYCE or not. The interior has a beautiful, traditional Japanese feel, which adds to the overall experience. The servers are always warm, welcoming, and attentive every time we visit, making us feel right at home. This place has become a staple in our restaurant rotation, and we're here multiple times a month. If you're a sushi lover, I can't recommend this place enough! read more

Mr Shota is our go-to AYCE sushi, all the staff here have always shown impeccable service. The food is always great, the garlic salmon and the prime galbi steak is really good. The music is not very loud, low enough to have a conversation without having to shout. Restrooms are always clean. Definitely recommend coming here. The ambience is nice. Great group seating, plenty of parking. read more

I had an amazing experience at Mr. Shota AYCE Sushi. The food was unbelievably fresh and flavorful, and the customer service made the meal even better. Everyone was kind, attentive, and made me feel right at home. Vibe was easy since lunch was not super busy. Truly the best sushi I've had in Las Vegas -- I'll definitely be coming back. read more

A great all you can eat sushi place if you want an affordable lunch option. Unlike other places this place offers lunch specials Monday through Friday. The key is that Friday is offered in it. Most places block off Friday Saturday Sunday and include that as a weekend price and is normally much higher. The worker/server was very friendly and he was out and about checking our table very often in order to order more rounds. The rounds came up very quick and even for the lunch option there's a bunch to choose from so we never felt like we're missing out on anything. I would of course order all of the one time things such as the salmon,, seafood bowl,. Everything was really fresh and Another stand out for me was the freshwater eel. My biggest tip is to not get any of the Unagi sauce since I feel like it really doesn't need it and it gets pretty salty and fills you up over time. read more

recently stopped by Mr. Shota and was genuinely impressed from start to finish. This spot hits that sweet balance between quality and value, especially if you catch their specials. First off, the nigiri deserves a shoutout--the fish-to-rice ratio was on point. Each piece had a generous cut of fresh fish without overwhelming the rice, which made every bite feel balanced and satisfying. You can tell they pay attention to the details. We also tried a few hot dishes, and they didn't disappoint. The karaage came out crispy on the outside and juicy inside, perfectly seasoned without being too heavy. The salmon steak was another standout--flavorful, tender, and cooked just right. Same goes for the beef short rib, which was rich, well-marinated, and fell apart with every bite. Service was just as solid as the food. Our server was attentive, friendly, and kept everything flowing smoothly without hovering--always a plus. What really makes this place stand out, though, is the value. Their weekday lunch special (until 4pm) is a great deal for the quality you're getting, and if you're out late, the $19 late-night special after 10pm is hard to beat. Overall, Mr. Shota is a spot I'd definitely come back to--whether it's for a casual lunch, a solid dinner, or a late-night bite. Great food, great service, and even better pricing. read more

I did the all you can eat. I thought the quality of the sashimi fish was okay. The nigiri is where it is at. The fish is tasty and I highly recommend the eel. They have this all you can eat special at weekday nights from 9-11 for 19.99. That's a steal. Otherwise the price is still reasonable for the quality of the fish. I don't necessarily recommend the recommendations from the menu. I think ordering the nigiri is more worthwhile if you are a fan of sushi. read more

Everything was great. Food very nice! We just wished they had bigger tables. It is a bit uncomfortable for 5 people to sit in one small table. read more

Our usual spot is down the street which is Sumo Sushi. Same owner I believe. Anyways, the wait was 55 mins for Sumo and it was already almost 9pm. We called Mr Shota and they said they had 1 table left. Or it could be a 15 min wait. When we got there, a group was leaving and there was 1 party of 2 ahead of us. Within less than a minute they were seated and we were right after. Super fast !! It's a small spot and this place has been different names before so we had stop coming here. But after today, it wasn't bad after all. The service was quick, the food was great. And to top it off, they had Ube and Thai tea ice cream !! Yummm ! Couldn't have asked for a better way to spend and early Mother's Day read more

Mr. Shota is one of six sushi restaurants as part of the Dragon Factories franchise in Las Vegas. It offers virtually the same menu as Sakana, Umami Sushi, Sushi Neko, Neko Supreme, and Sumo Sushi. I've visited three out of the six, and Mr. Shota has the best ambiance in my opinion. The lighting and decor really set the mood. As for the sushi, I thought the sashimi and nigiri were on par with the other locations, and offered great taste and lots of variety. I especially enjoyed the seared salmon with lemon, uni, and the sashimi platter. The service was great as well. Our waiter was attentive and checked on us often. He did not limit us as some of the other locations did. We came as a group of four, and finished all our plates without scraps. I only knock down a star due to the lack of dessert options the day we went. Although there were many more options on the menu, they only had maybe 2-3 mochi flavors available, with no affogato (my favorite) or ice cream. Regardless, I'd definitely still come back! read more

Came on a Saturday in December 2025, where they initially posted on FB/Insta about their DAILY 9 PM - closing $20 deal. Maybe it's my fault I should have rechecked, but they changed it to Mon-Thurs ONLY. Was super disappointed to see that they literally crossed out their deal, and changed it pretty last second. Since we were there anyways, decided to stay and pay the $34.95 price for AYCE sushi. SUPER DISAPPOINTED. I'm not giving Mr. Shota a 1 star because of the $20 to $35 sudden shift... I'm giving them a 1 star because their food quality was not there, service was super mediocre, and overall very very disappointed at their decline over the past years. Food Quality: - Nigiri: The only thing that was ok. Fish quality is average compared to other sushi spots in the valley, but they do give higher side of rice. Fish slices are also on the smaller side. Yellowtail, Salmon, Tuna are all fine. Seared options were mediocre as well, not bad. - Rolls: TERRIBLE! They advertise 2 of their signature rolls as *must try,* we got 1/2 rolls, couldn't finish them. Disgusting, filled with rice/cream cheese, super super disappointed and did not like it at all. Would not recommend any of their rolls - Skewers: Got their Galbi, it was literally a dry piece of meat burnt to a crisp. That was disgusting how are we supposed to eat that - Appetizers: was only looking for shrimp tempura, and they were all under-fried, barely crispy, and overall just unenjoyable. Conversely, their Coconut Shrimp was great! Overall, this spot is worth it ONLY if it's $20-30. Their $34.95 price now is definitely because they had a history of good reviews. Not good anymore!! Stay away!!! Fish/Nigiri quality is ok, as expected from an AYCE sushi spot. BAD ITEMS: rolls, skewers, appetizers (aka everything other than their nigiri). Definitely disappointed from their quality of service (take forever to come to get our order, had to flag down), poor food, and of course, the way they take back their deal of $20 daily after 9PM mid-way through their promotion. Really bad thing to do, they've lost a customer forever. read more

This place has great quality cuts and portions! Went here for our anniversary recently and it was worth the wait. We love nigiri and this place does an amazing job with that. I thought the yellowtail was especially good here. I thought the eel was weakest, although still good. read more

Mr. Shota - Salmon, tuna, super white - Sushi Bars Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Everything went well the lobsters roll and lime white fish and salmon sashimi was so delicious. Great ambience and so delicious.

Delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Booooooooooooookyyyyyeeee!!!!

This place is easily top two AYCE spot in Vegas and let me tell you why. The portions for the sashimi is good. Let me start by saying I've been to four of the other top ayce spots in vegas and they're decent but this is my top two. They're bite size so that you get a good taste with a good rice ratio. They're not huge so you don't get full and you can try other things. Their selection on the menu is very fair it may not be a massive selection, but the selection that they do have all taste really good. The speed at which they bring the food out is very fast so you don't really have to worry about waiting. Staff was attentive and fast. My only gripe was when I called and asked what the wait time was server said 30 minutes when really there was no wait. Not sure why they lied if I had trusted that information I wouldn't have gone and missed out. read more

Can never go wrong with Mr. Shota. If you like AYCE sushi and don't want to go to Spring Mountain, this is a great place to go. It does get very busy though. All the sushi is fresh, fast service, and they play good music. The rice to sushi ratio is perfect! Would definitely recommend read more

Literally one of my favorite sushi spots in Vegas. Everything tastes insanely fresh every time, the rolls were actually packed with flavor (not just rice), and every single thing we ordered hit. The service was great too, and the whole vibe was modern and clean without feeling overrated. Lowkey don't want to tell people about it because I don't need it getting impossible to get a table... but they deserve the hype. I'll 1000% be back. read more

Vegas has made it an art of delivering restaurants that excel at all you can eat sushi. I love this place the best! Easy 5 stars, all the many dishes we had were spot on. My personal favorites was the garlic tuna, freshwater eel, the coconut shrimp, sea urchin and the ube ice cream. The freshest fish with wonderful undertones of the ocean. read more

Food: great very smart to serve in small portion, we were able to try a lot of the items in the menu. Very savory.

Shota is part of the same restaurant family as Sakana and Sushi Neko, offering a $29.95 AYCE menu with a nice variety of sushi and cooked dishes. The flavors were good, and the servers were friendly. Ordering was simple, but the execution was inconsistent. We received several items we didn't order, and a few we requested never came--even after following up 2-3 times. Unfortunately, those missing items never showed up. Overall, the food is good, but just be prepared for possible mix-ups with your order. If you're easygoing about that, it's worth checking out. read more

I am so upset! I literally drove ACROSS town to get the goku handroll. They were the only sushi place that had something like this. It was literally the only thing that made them unique to all the other sushi spot. This new menu has got to go! Let me know when it comes back. Also I hate that they do cans of soda instead of fountain soda. read more

Fantastic experience! We were on this side of town for an IKEA run and decided to have dinner. Found this gem tucked in the corner of a VONS shopping center. After a mere 10 minute wait, we were seated immediately and greeted just as quickly. The AYCE was only $34.95, with 90 minutes to enjoy. We started with their 'The Shit' and it was so YUMMY. We were excited to try some original rolls and and enjoyed them all. The ambiance is upbeat and inviting! We'll be back the next time we're on that side of town! read more

Sooo many positive comments reviews and highly recommended so had to try although not a huge fan of AYCE! Great space warm welcome as you walk in and servers were very attentive. Went for lunch and base option $25.99 and thinking good value? Unfortunately a bit less than usual quality or freshness of fish so stuck more with small plated cooked items... Huge Korean and Japanese options to choose from to boot! Hate to say this but overall pretty MID!! Also a terrible first visit experience when the very first things ordered never showed ....And while waiting for those two desired important items, your asked over and over if I needed something else? Good service or forgot my original order? Unfortunately not my vibe and totally missed the mark for me!! I don't think I would return. read more

Mr. Shota is located on Warm Springs and Durango in the Vons shopping center. We ordered sushi rolls and salmon skin salads. We were very disappointed. The sushi was nothing special and the salmon skin was just little crumbs. I feel we should have known better ordering from an AYCE sushi place. Best not to expect great quality. Lesson learned! read more

The Hamachi Kama is back! (In limited quantities). Jackson let us know that they offer Salmon and Hamachi Kama, but it's one per table and you can only choose one. We came for lunch and it wasn't too busy. Our food didn't take too long to come out, but keep in mind the Kama, Kalbi, and skewers take longer. Music is great and restaurant is clean. So happy that the Hamachi Kama is back! read more

After much review from friends and online influencers, I opted to take the drive to the Southwest corner. We came in around 4:30/5:00 and they weren't really busy. It was the all-day; AYCE. For 3 people it was about $140 with a 20% tip I'm normally a salmon girly, but the salmon nigiri didn't really hit to me. I ended up loving their yellowtail nigiri so much more. I ended up with so many orders that I lost count. It was hit or miss on the rice to fish ratio. Sometimes it was good, other times it almost felt like a roll. Now the knock of a star is for the "time limit". You have a 90 minute time limit, which we didnt realize when we sat down. One of our members, it was their first time at an AYCE so he was overwhelmed and it took him like 3 orders before he could feel comfy. I also don't appreciate the time limit when it takes awhile to get the attention of our waiter. At one point we had to wait for the waiter and had to call him over. By the time we called him he told us it was last call. I took a glance around the room and they were not busy. So I was a bit pissy after that. Overall it was a fine experience but due to the time limit and distance I don't see myself frequenting this place read more

I usually don't take the time to leave negative reviews, but the service was that bad. This was the worst service I've experienced at a restaurant. The staff was unprofessional and inattentive, we had to ask repeatedly for the simplest things, like napkins and help cleaning up an accidental spill. They couldn't even tell us the names of their own rolls when we were trying to sort out whose order was whose. read more

Mr. Shota - Sushi Bars Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Mr Shota is one of my favorite AYCE sushi places in Vegas, especially in the South West side. The service is pretty fast to the point where you may even get your food faster than your drinks. The portion of the food is also pretty good because they don't bulk up your nigiri with a large amount of rice. This used to have a bunch of anime decor on the wall, but they switched it to a more modern/traditional feel with the black and wood. As far as AYCE selection, I'd always say to try any of the dishes where you're limited to only one. That is usually a sign that it is something premium or something that is really good. You don't have to order so much unless you're that hungry, because the service is usually pretty fast and you get your food almost instantly. My go to is always a combination of nigiri's such as mackerel, escolar, salmon belly, ama ebi, squid, etc. That with soy sauce and wasabi and I'm a happy customer. I usually order any spicy roll as well just to add some other flavors onto the table. Overall, Mr Shota is pretty similar to a majority of AYCE sushi places, but what makes this place stick out more to me is the fast service in which you order your food. read more

It's sad how this place changed their sushi menu. I used to come here often and when we returned after they changed the menu, it was a big regret. Their old menu was great. They offered quail eggs and used to offer cucumber wrapped sushi instead of soy paper for the riceless sushi. Prices are higher too for the not so great sushi. As another person mentioned they put more sauce on the sushi, which doesn't make it taste better. I think it's a strategy to make you full. I won't come back. Will have to find a new spot. read more

Ambiance - neighborhood gem. Plenty of parking. Well- lit and clean. Service - fast and friendly Food - we opted for the all you can eat sushi for $29.95 each. We ordered so much in a span of an hour. Our favorites were the salmon and yellow tail carpaccios, baked green mussels, seafood salad, baked lobster roll, dynamite, short rib kalbi ( so tender), beef bulgogi and their dessert ice creams. Everything was delicious and fresh. For three people, our final bill was $120, inclusive of tax and tip. read more

We recently ate here, food was okay. The service was just ok. Our server seemed a little grumpy, had an attitude and didn't have good customer service. She asked us once how we were doing. The food runners were actually nice, specifally the hispanic woman. I feel like as a server, you should at least be a little more enthusiastic. The ambiance was nice but to be honest it was just the server. The food was ok, the garlic tuna was yummy. But it was the only dish that stuck out to us. The seaweed salad and cucumber salad were soaking in watered down sauce. Would I come back again, probably not. Service needs to be worked one, food is sloppy and just seems cheap. We did get the late night special but I'd much rather spend 6 dollars more on Itz sushi. Save your money, not worth the 45 minute wait. read more
