    Braised Wagyu Beef Short Ribs
    Terra S.

    I wasn't looking forward to this restaurant that my friend picked but I'm so happy she picked it and I went! First of all, the service was above and beyond, (thank you Theo) and you have a great view of the fountains out by the patio, and the food was so delicious! I had the Braised Wagyu Beef Short ribs with such amazing sauce, a lychee martini that was so good I ordered two, and the dessert was so amazing I forgot what it was called but it was like a bananas foster sauce with apple pie sort of thing! So good! My friend loved her yellowtail roll and her Mile High roll. We ordered the Kimchi Brussel Sprouts as well and they were just ok. I'd skip those...food was really good I can't wait to be back next time I'm in town for a trade show! I went back and had the filet mignon. It was delicious!

    A beautiful dinner spot. Yellowtail is located inside the Bellagio and is stunning. It is one of those places that feels upscale while still feeling very intimate. I had a bit of an unconventional (but still nice) experience at Yellowtail. My friends and I had a reservation for a Saturday evening. Like many of the restaurants on the Strip, there is a missed reservation fee of $25 per person. It was just my luck that we were running late. When we realized we would not make it in time, we tried giving them a call a few times but received no answer. We ended up being just over 30 minutes late, hoping that there was a chance we would still have a table. To our surprise, we were still kindly offered a table. The host said that the original table we booked in the dining room was no longer available but that we could be seated in the lounge (the front of the restaurant that faces the casino). We were grateful to even be given a spot so we accepted the offer and took a seat. This spot is dark, moody, and very ambient. It definitely feels classy. Sitting facing the casino felt a bit awkward and like we were in all the action. We directly faced one of the main walking paths to the other restaurants. In a way, it's nice to have some people watching, but of course, a view of the Bellagio fountains would have been to die for. The table setup was super cute. The napkins and chopsticks were adorable yet classy. First, we ordered the Lychee Martinis. They were super good. The flavor was not too overpowering. It was perfectly sweet and had a flower perfect for some photos. By the time the drinks were brought out, we realized we would not have time to order a full meal. It was very busy and the wait for just the drinks was quite long. We sipped our drinks for a while before one of the waitresses stopped by and said that, in order to sit in the lounge, we would need to order food. So, we ordered the Salmon Tiradito appetizer. The portion was quite small (and of course pricey) for three people. It was very light and refreshingly. I personally was not a huge fan of the flavor but I could tell that it was very high quality. I hope. with some better planning on my end, that I could revisit Yellowtail and try more of the menu!

    Amazing food amazing view so much to say so little time. It was our last night in town and we wanted to try Sushi without leaving the hotel. We were quickly seated and we ordered the Omakase. Great choice.

    Third time here and still really enjoyed it. Brought some out of town coworkers as they were wanting sushi. Reservation is recommended. As we were walking from the hostess to our table in the back area, my coworker was loving the ambience. As we were approaching our table, you can see the Bellagio fountain. What an amazing view. The service was OK, the food made up for it. All our sashimi orders were perfection. The sauce is the sashimi the taste perfect. I still say it beats the sushi restaurant in Caesar's Palace, price, and food quality. I will be back.

    This place is a must! We started with the Akira Back Tuna and House Pickles which consisted of pickled carrots, radishes and cucumbers, delicious. Our meal was the Mile High withTempura Crab, Avocado, Asparagus, Topped with Mixed Sashimi, Spicy Ponzu Aioli, omg, everything was superb! And don't get me started with the service which was top notch! Our water was never empty and our places were removed swiftly. The mochi with berries was so delicious and the lychee drink was amazing!! Definitely will be back!!

    This place was really nice. The service was ok. The pictures that I am sharing is of a salad. However it has too much vinegar where it wasn't edible. They did not comp the salad which was disappointing because I maybe took two bites of it and pushed it off to the side. It was definitely an overpriced salad. It just was really beautiful to look at basically. Everything else that I ate was delicious. Even the miso soup.

    Rosè, Edamame, Big Eye Tuna Pizza.

    Since we had time to kill for a show, we chose Yellowtail since it's the perfect place to pregame inside our hotel. The beautiful staff goes hand and hand with the vibes here, from the hip and clean decor, to the romantic overlooking sights of the Bellagio fountains all in one spot. We ordered a bottle of Rosè to have with a couple of Savory Edamame, Big Eye Tuna Pizzas, the Mile High, and Ugagi Rolls. Each dish was special in its own way, and paired really well with the drinks. After all these years, Yellowtail still delivers on every aspect.

    I'll say a really cool and trendy sushi spot at Bellagio. Great quality sushi and they make great drinks here too. Service is exceptional and the crowd here in just chill in general

    Our party was not expecting this place to be phenomenal! We enjoyed a nice variety of food and the service was excellent. Ohhh we tried the Ube coffee martini and wowza!! Delicious!! Did I mention how good the food was?! lol So good that we want to return!

    My bf and I came here and had such a memorable experience. We had a reservation for around 8:30pm and although there was a little bit of a wait, it honestly wasn't an issue for us. We had requested a window seat, and the host was super friendly and let us know there would be a wait. It ended up being completely worth it because we were seated outside on a private balcony. Just the two of us at a single table with a perfect view of the Bellagio fountains. Such a special moment. Our server was also amazing. Very informative about the menu and honestly great at suggestive selling lol. We ended up trying everything he recommended, and there were zero regrets. Every dish was so good. The menu is more shareable, appetizer-style plates, which made it even more fun for a date night. I would definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for a cute, intimate dinner with great food and a beautiful view.

    This place is FANTASTIC! so much so that I went twice while in Vegas for work. The staff was friendly and very accommodating! They had a dedicated gluten free menu which was nice. The one problem here is that I ordered a roll on both visits and they were made differently so I do suspect that one of them was prepared normally not GF which is unfortunate and thankfully I don't have severe allergies. However the staff was very accommodating and great with suggestions. Now onto the food. I ordered: - miso - salmon sashimi - ebi sushi - a specialty roll from the GF menu - Atlantic black cod Miso was skippable honestly nothing special and I wouldn't get it again. The sushi was so fresh and delicious with the exception of the GF consistency I mentioned before. The STAR of the meals was the Atlantic black cod. IT WAS DELICIOUS!! so good that this is the dish that brought me back a second time. The miso flavoring was so well done!! If you come here I highly recommend this dish. The ambiance is great if you are seated by the fountains. If you're out front it's not the best being so close to a casino entrance it kills the vibes a bit. Sitting at the bar is an option but it does get crowded quickly and when I sat there that's when I suspect I had the roll that wasn't correctly prepared because the bartenders are managing so many different tabs and orders. The roll pictured has a glaze that was left off when I was at a table with a very attentive server who had the roll remade when it was originally made with a non GF sauce according to her. I will definitely come back but be sure to get a reservation for the best service and views.

    Very VERY mediocre, and not good for the expensive price at ALL. If you want to break your wallet, get okay sushi, this is the place for you! Service was good, staff was nice, which was great! Ambiance was the best by far, but you go to the restaurant for the food. Not fresh, you can barely taste the fish, and they fill it up with a lot of cucumber/cheap filler. Would NOT recommend.

    Pam Y.

    Food always amazing. Tuna pizza. Mile high roll just to mention a couple. Service - Mickel - delightful. Sunny - always so lovely. We sat outside. Doesn't get better than that.

    How is it for music and grabbing drinks? going there next month for some picky foods but as far as a dj music and just hanging out, does it offer that vibe? or is it strictly just a dinner spot...eat and leave?

    Actually there is a DJ on Friday & Saturday nights after 8:30pm.

    Is this kid friendly? Want to bring our 2 year old

    There were some very young children there when I was visiting, although the menu didn't have a lot of kid type options that I could see. Its a fancy place with fancy prices that caters more to adults.

    Dress / attire?

All I remember was going through the casino areas of Paris Hotel, and then going down one floor to the Horseshoe area to reach this bar just minutes before closing on a Friday close to midnight. I quickly grabbed a seat at the bar area and perused the menu, which has a ton of drinks, beers, wines, mocktails and even snacks. Even when close to closing time, patrons filled up all the bar seating which isn't a lot; most seating was couches and tables near the knickknacks. I got myself the Bee's Knees, which is cranberry and pineapple juice, apple puree, cinnamon fire syrup and some ginger beer according to their menu just outside the front entrance. I can only describe the taste as a sweetened fruit juice with a ton of fizz from the ginger beer, and the pineapple and apple came out on top for overpowering the drink overall. Some mint leaves and a slice of grapefruit were added in, and the mint leaves made this drink feel more like a special cocktail. This and other mocktails is $13 before tax, so pretty high price especially when considering their other alcoholic drinks are not that much higher than that... I actually still loved my drink, though! It was a nice wrap-up for my last day in Vegas and I'm curious now to look a lot more carefully at the stuff on the walls if I ever come here again!

The venue itself is beautifully designed, with a more intimate, sophisticated feel compared to larger Las Vegas clubs. It's a great option if you're looking for something stylish with a strong music and ambiance focus. The overall vibe is smooth and elevated -- great music, well-dressed crowd, and an atmosphere that feels exclusive without being overwhelming. One thing worth noting is the camera policy. The venue emphasizes a no-camera experience, which I understand is meant to maintain privacy and keep the focus on the moment. However, I did notice a few cameras out and about during the night, which made the policy feel a bit inconsistent. Not a major issue, but something that stood out. Overall, it's a great spot for a more refined night out in Las Vegas. I had an enjoyable experience and would definitely return.
