O-iza Modern Japanese: Reviews & Ratings
I'm a foodie who travels extensively on business, and given the many fancy sushi restaurants to entertain customers such as RA and Sushi Ramba in Vegas, this is the only Japanese restaurant that comes close for food quality and service. I have dined there twice and have been absolutely impressed & pleased (see pics). The cocktails and appetizers are amazing too. Sushi was served fresh and simply delectable. The restaurant offers something I've yet seen anywhere and that's a mouth rinse and toothpicks in the bathroom! This is next level service! Definitely a must try.
My fiance and I came here to celebrate our 3 year anniversary of being together, and when they asked if we were celebrating anything, they gave us an adorable matcha parfait decked out with matcha powder spelling "Happy Anniversary!" Genuinely, the food is delicious, the servers are wonderful and attentive, and the atmosphere is unlike any other place that I've been to.
My mother and I went to this restaurant for lunch around 11:45am. Place was empty, with a few guests sitting in the outdoor patio. The Host named Lisa was so sweet and helped us navigate the menu and even gave us snacks to eat while we waited, she also offered us water. The customer service her is top notch. The inside is so beautiful and modern. The food was priced as expected for the area, not cheap but not super expensive. For two lunch specials the cost was near 40, 18 each. We had the chicken thighs, white rice, and broccolini. It was fresh, not very flavorful, no sauces or soy sauce on the side. The food needed a little sauce to liven it up, it was plain, nothing special, but not bad, the freshness made up for the lack of flavor. The chopsticks provided were good quality which I appreciate because I love using chopsticks. The meal came in the best packaging I have ever received from any to go order, meal was made in about 20 minutes, great service, beautiful ambiance.
Had an amazing first time experience. We were met with a very warm welcome and our server Raegan helped us navigate their amazing menu and helped us have one the most amazing dinners! Absolutely loved the salmon spoons! Can’t wait to go again and try more delicious things!
My husband and I’s first time here was a great experience. We had their Uni Udon Pasta, Karashi Curry Lamb Chops, and their Salmon Spoons. Everything tasted great. Our server was also nice and checked on us frequently. Wish I can remember her name!
Food was amazing and our waitress Belle was the sweetest welcoming us with a warm smile and was very informational with each dish. Amazing atmosphere and exceptional service! Will be back soon! also I am in love with their matcha! Matcha girlies, pleaseee try!
O-IZA provided a truly wonderful dining experience for my husband's birthday celebration last night. From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was warm and inviting. The food was exceptional – every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented. What truly stood out, however, was the exceptional service we received from our host, Regan. I had mentioned it was my husband's birthday when we arrived, and Regan made sure he felt celebrated. She surprised us with a delightful dessert treat with "Happy Birthday" written on it, which was such a thoughtful gesture. Her genuine kindness and attentiveness made our evening truly special. Thank you, O-IZA, and especially Regan, for a memorable birthday dinner! We will definitely be back.
Came in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. They were able to seat us right away. I loved the decor of the restaurant. The staff were also very friendly and constantly checked in on us if we needed anything. We ordered the A-5 Hot Rock for an appetizer which was served tableside. I was very impressed with the flavors and food quality. Definitely recommend! For our entrees my husband got the Karashi Curry Lamb Chop was was very delicious. I opted for the Kaiseki Set which was so much food and everything was also delicious. I chose to upgrade the rice to the fried rice option. The bathroom was clean and they also had floss and mouthwash available for use. Overall great food, great service, good atmosphere so I would highly recommend this restaurant.
