KYU Las Vegas Reviews
This restaurant is a 10 out of 10 for me. I know what the review says but for me especially a solo trip. I made the best decision by coming here. I wish I had a chance to try everything on the menu, but you have to try they Japanese sweet potato and they’re crispy rice tuna and their delicious octopus dish very tender it’s 10/10 I love it. And the people there were soooo nice and kind,and you really don’t get that every where. I forgot the people name but I think...read full review
Really good Asian fusion food here. Our group of 8 had both seafood and steak, all was excellent. Service was also very good, with a cheerful waitress. Food came out pretty fast. Lively but not so noisy you couldn't have conversation.
Would highly recommend Kyo! The quality of the food was excellent - the Thai Rice stone pot and Japanese sweet potato were delicious. We also enjoyed the espresso martini! The portions are generous so that you can enjoy your meals family style. The service was truly first rate. The staff and servers were extremely attentive and friendly. They consistently checked on us, refilled beverages etc. Overall the restaurant had a fantastic vibe! 4 out of 5 stars for atmosphere only...read full review

KYU Las Vegas offers a memorable dining experience with a chic and inviting atmosphere. The food is flavorful, and the chef receives high praise for their culinary skills. The service is attentive and friendly, with staff showing great knowledge of the menu. The restaurant is inside the Fontainebleau Las Vegas and is highly recommended by both locals and visitors.
The menu features a variety of dishes such as hamachi crudo, pork bao buns, octopus, beef short rib, and Korean Fried Chicken. Guests often enjoy the dishes family-style, although portions can be small if more than two people are dining. Standout items include the stone pot confit duck Thai rice, smoked beef short rib, and king crab legs. The stone pot dish is a sizzling creation with rice, egg, and duck, mixed tableside as the rice crisps. The beef short rib is tender and full of flavor, while the king crab legs are served with the meat removed, cut into pieces, then placed back into the legs with butter.
Recent reviews mention that while the ambiance and service are good and the restaurant is clean, some found the food to be strange if they are not adventurous eaters. The crab legs are smaller and served at room temperature, which some customers did not prefer, especially considering the high price. There have been complaints about the mixology and the cutlery not being proper for serving, and a steak that was not exactly 12oz as marketed.
Overall, KYU Las Vegas provides a unique twist on American-styled food with interesting dishes and a comfortable environment. Despite some minor issues, many guests find the food tasty and the experience enjoyable, especially the lamb chops with hoisin and garlic chips or the Thai Hot pot, which offers comforting flavors perfect for colder days. The staff's friendliness and knowledge add to the positive experience, making KYU a restaurant worth visiting.
